DENIES TALK WITHHOOVEH — Anti-Saloon League Official Denies Attempting to Influence Wushlngton, May S —(UP) —The ; Anti Saloon league lias never copI fened whh President Hoover regarding legislation or apoolntments o public o.fiie, ami Ims establishi <-d no contract with Mr. Hoover j "to my knowledge," F. Scott Mibride, general superintendent of the idly organization, told the senate I lobby committee u>day. ( Mcßride, tailed at the behest of Rep. Tinkham. Repn, M:t >.. a 1 wet. who demanded hii inquiry into ]the League’s activities. The dry lender, successor to the late Wavin' li. Wheeler. ;/ > denied he league communicates with judges as far as I know” No briefs are submitted to judges, he said, although state blanches of th<» t e i-ne do communicate with prosecutors, giving information only mien it is requested. The league's expendi tires last year were $273,049, Mcßridq said in picturing the oiganization as a restrained and abstracted advisory organization instead of a powerful politjial lobby. Recipitants amounted to $269,916 leaving deficit of $3,132, Mcßride declared. He pointed out. however, these figures did not include any of the various state branches, which keep separate accounts although their work dovetails with the national organization. The assoclaiion against the prohibition amendment spent $467,000 in 1929. but this figure included all national activity. The only lobbying done by the league Mcßride explained, is in "keeping the home fires burning for legislators.” Questioned concerning this by . hairman Caraway, the lea.duii official said: "Most of our woik on legislators is not heie. but back home. The in fluence of Washington is not good. If the work is done right in the primary hack home, there isn't much to do here.” Mcßride admitted that if a legisla:oi is inclined to wander", the league calls on him. That is the extent of the organization's lobbying. he asserted. In the recent illness primary* Mcßride said, the league endorsed both Mrs. Ruth Hanna McCormick and Senator Denee, and therefore, considered Mis. McCormick's vicory as a personal success. Mcßride told the committee he lid not believe any group should. •ontrol legislation or government'.! but believed the anti-saloon league represented a majority of the people and he was in favor of letting the people control. Sena or Blaine. Repn,, Wis„ asked why .the league did not participate in the 1926 Illinois reteren-j duni and other referenda. "it's because your league fears a popular vote on this question, is it not?" asked Blaine, the only wet >n the committee. That is not true" said Mcßride “Well, I assert it," insited Blaine. "You cannot, speak for our league Mcßride said while the crowd applauded. "That is gratifying to me; be■ause 1 would not want to be in a position where I would speak for your organization.” Blaine said. The applause at this remark was ;o prolonged chaii man Caraway asked the audience to restrain itself. Mcßride asked permission to keep private all contributions of less than SI,OOO, saying it "annoys >eople to have these lists printed ot those who give small amounts.” Blaine pointed out the association igainst the prohibition amendment gave all its contributors and the omtnittee decided to hoi dthe request in abeyance for the present. It also developed Mcßride did not lave all the records of his organizaion so the committee decided to send a man to Westerville. Ohio to ,ook them over. 0 -j We wish to announce to our customers and I friends in Decatur and vicinity our intention of stocking and selling this fall and next spring a much ’arger and more complete assortment of nursery stock.
