GLASS OPPOSES WETCAMPAIGN Senator Says Prohibition Is No Party Issue. (Copyright, 1827, by United Press* LYNCHBURG, Va„ Aug. 2.—lt would be fatal for the Democrats to make this presidential fight on prohibition, said Senator Carter Glass, Virginia Demoorat, in an interview with the United Press in which he gave his prescription for success in 1928. ‘‘lf the Democratic party in its national convention should undertake to make prohibition an issue at the next presidential election, there will not be enough left of the party organization to make it a national factor for many years to come,” he said. "I do not and cannot assume to speak for the South, or even for Virginia. I simply entertain the personal belief that this would be the effect of any such fatal mistake. Prohibition is not a party question, and it will not be made so unless one of the great parties should be foolish enough to venture it. ‘‘Of course, if any considerable number of people should think it ought to be made a national issue they can revive the old prohibition party. For my personal part, I am utterly opposed to the Democratic party submerging all of its principles and traditional policies into the question of prohibition.” 2 SHOT DURING RAID By Times Special VERSAILLES, Ind., Aug. 2.—Two men were wounded at the home of Lindsay Borders near Olean during a liquor raid by Sheriff Smith and posse.
