TALKS FOR PROHIBITION Church Moderator Urges Votes Not to Permit Weakening of Law. The abolishment of prohibition would make living unsafe in this age of automobiles, asserted Frank James Harwood of Appleton, Wis., moderator of the National Council of Congregational Churches, Friday night before the Men’s Club of the First Congregational Church. He spoke on "The Obligation of the Layman to the Church.” He urged voters to keep alert and not to permit any weakening of the prohibition law.
