PROVINCE FINDS PROHIBITION IS TOTALFAILURE New Turns to Government Rule of Liquor Sales. Herewith Is the second story of the series on the Canadian prohibition situation. BY GILSON GARDNER, Times Staff Correspondent HALIFAX. Nova Scotia, Jan. 24. flVo very small provinces in Canada still have so-called prohibition They are Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. For quite a while there were three “dry” provinces: the three little maritimes, but a year •go New Brunswick adopted the government control plan, which covers the rest of Canada. Interesting light is shed on the working of the different plans in New Brunswick, in a letter written by R. G. Fulton, chairman of the New Brunswick liquor control board. Fulton is a churchman. For thirty years he was connected officially with the temperance work GT the Methodist church and the United churches . For three years he was in charge of the enforcement commission, created by the assembly of Prince Edwards Island to enforce, not state control, but the old-time prohibition. His experience in Prince Edward Island convinced Fulton that temperance could not be achieved by that arrangement. There must be frank recognition of the fact that liquor will be sold, and the traffic must be controlled, and an enforcing commission, supplemented by police, and operating under the government dispensing plan, he finds, does meet the need. Reducing the matter to cold facts, Chairman Fulton report': “The answer is, the bootlegger has been driven out of the province ‘New Brunswick). The flask in the hands of the boy and girl has disappeared. The provincial police have worked tirelessly at the great undertaking, and today it is practically impossible to buy liquor in the province, other than in the stated hours of government stores. “Hotel keepers report that drunken carousals have ceased, public dances, picnic and holiday gatherings are supervised carefully by the provincial police, and the reports being received show a decided improvement in the public life of the people.” I have before me the police report for the city of Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, for June. The report shows thirty arrests for drunkenness for that period, and this under a supposedly rigid enforcement of prohibition. For the city of St. John, N. B„ in the same month, there were thirty-two arrests for drunkenness. Charlottetown has a population of about 9,000, St. John has 60.000. This means that, taking population as a basis, Charlottetown had nearly sjven times as many arrests for drunkenness as St. John, in the same period. We have here police reports which show that under liquor control results are better, and with this should be kept in mind that the provincial police.of New Brunswick have orders for" rigid enforcement of the intoxicating liquor act and city police are acting under similar instructions, while, according to the Charlottetown papers, “those able to navigate under their own steam” are permitted to get home.

Embry-Riddle Fliers Take Their Recreation in Cage Sport. The Embry-Riddle Company, Cincinnati, air mail operators, has a basketball team that is up in the air most of the time. But that doesn’t mean that it isn’t a good team. Every member of the team, even the coach, is an aviator and flies an airplane when he is not tossing a basketball through the hoop. The team is composed of twelve students of the Embry-Riddle flying school and members of the company. Eight of these make up the traveling squad. The players schedule games with teams within 100 miles of Cincinnati in towns having good landing fields. Fairchild cabin monoplanes, and Waco training planes are used for transportation. Manager Carl Anderson is seeking to schedule a game with an Indianapolis team. Two members of the regular team, Lionel Stephens and Anderson, are students in the flying school. C. O. Meguire is office manager; John Milholland is maintenance supervisor of air mail planes; Evan Chatfield is assistant so the general manager, and Charles ‘E. Planck is director of public relations.

Weir Cook, Curtiss Flying Service of Indiana general manager, Wednesday night In a talk before the Bible Invetigation Club at the Y. M. C. A. Cook declared American business interests are demanding that national progress be made in development of aviation. “Everything possible should be done to promote this important factor of our national and international affairs,” he said. “Commercial development of aviation has surpassed governmental co-ordina-tion of aviation.” The committee of twenty selected V.

425,000 VOTE SHIFT ENOUGH TO _ELECT AL Slight Changes Would Have Beaten Hoover, Democrat Post-Mortem Shows. By United Press NEW YORK, Jan. 24.—Although approximately 36,435,000 votes were cast for President in the last election, 425,541 votes properly rearranged would have given Governor Alfred E. Smith eighteen additional states, a total of 269 electoral votes and enough to win the presidency, according to figures compiled for the United Press by the Democratic national committee. A further curious thing the figures show is that this could be done, and still Hoover would have carried the country with a plurality of about 6,000,000 votes. Hoover actually had a plurality of about 6,900,000 votes. Appeals to Stick to Party When Governor Smith recently spoke on a nation-wide radio hookup in an appeal to maintain support of the Democratic party, he made the statement that the importance of the party in American political life was attested by the fact that a change of about 420,000 votes, if properly placed, would have brought victory to the Democrats instead of the Republicans in the presidential election. Asa result of this striking statement, the United Press asked a compilation from the Democratic national committee. This compilation reveals that the changes in vote would have to be spread over eighteen different states and would range in number from a shift of 2,119 from Hoover to Smith in Nevada to a shift of 83,275 from Hoover to Smith in Missouri. In' the latter state, nearly a million and a half votes were cast and Hoover’s plurality was 166,275 there. Only Few Votes Needed In New York state, which cast 4,283,207 votes, a change of only 51,741 would have switched the forty-five decimal votes from Hoover to Smith. Among other customarily Democratic states, which went for Hoover, the analysis shows that in Florida a change of 21,203 out of the 245,932 cast in the elec-

tion would have given the state to Smith; a change of 21,349 out of 635A50 cast in North Carolina would have put the state in the Smith column; transfer of 19,023 from the 352,681 cast in Tennessee to Smith would have given him the state. A shift of only 13,003 out of the 708.068 cast in Texas would have turned that state and its twenty electoral votes from Hoover, and 12,232 votes for Smith instead of Hoover out of the 304,755 cast in Virginia would have retained that state in the Democratic column. Os states whose political affiliations were not always constant, only 6,999 more of the 91,070 cast in Arizona would have been needed by Smith to win its three electoral votes; 22,288 more out of 548,654 in Connecticut were what he would have required to snatch that state from Hoover, and 38,927 more out of 525,107 would have been required for him to get the eight electoral votes of Maryland. In the seven remaining states, out of the eighteen Smith needed in addition to those he did carry, the compilation shows the following necessary: 17,362 more out of 191,-

Mrs. Grace Sutton, 2905 Brookside Avenue, Indianapolis, is one of the latest to give a written report to the Konjola Man at Hook’s drug store, Illinois and Washington streets, this city, telling him of the many benefits she derived from the use of this medicine. “Konjola cleansed my system so well that within three weeks’ time I was free of all stomach trouble and the neuritis pains through my back and shoulders had disappeared,” said Mrs. Sutton. “Now, I enjoy new life energy over my whole body and never suffer from the slightest ache or pain. “Over a year ago I began having trouble with my stomach. At first It was only slight attacks of gas and belching, but my condition grew worse very quickly and in a few months’ time I was suffering all kinds of misery. Every time I ate a meal my system would fill up with gas and I would get sick at my stomach. My heart would start to beat like a trip-hammer and there was a burning sensation all through my chest and stomach. I would wake up in the morning with a severe headache and at times I was subject to blind, dizzy spellß. • Neuritis pains in my back and shoulders made my suffering all the worse. Often my whole body was so full of aches and pains that I couldn’t bear to be on my feet. Many times I would just drag through the day and be completely exhausted when night came Even then I couldn’t sleep. I would lie awake half the night and the next morning I felt miserable. “So many reliable people of this city were indorsing Konjola that I felt it was at least worth my while to give it a trial. Now. I am happy that I did. It was the medicine my system had needed for a long time. The relief from gas bloating and indigestion came so quickly that I was surprised and didn’t know what to make of it. Anyhow, I just kept on taking Konjola and every day I was feeling a little better By the end of three weeks I felt like another person. My neuritis- had gone and all sign of stomach trouble had left. I sleep better at night and wake up in the morning feeling refreshed and rested and I have more energy and vigor to do my work. Yes, Konjola really gave my system a good cleansing and I will be glad to tell anyone about this remarkable medicine.” The Konjola Man is at Hook's drug store, Illinois and Washington streets. Indianapolis, where he is daily meeting the public and introducing and explaining the merits of this remedy Konjola is sold in every Hook drug store in this I section and by all the leading druggists throughout this vicinity.—Advertisement
