STATES HiS POSITION

Tells my II Voted Against tht Cummins' Prohibition , Amendment, In reply to the telegram which the Rev. A. L. Ward tent to Senators James E. Watton and Harry 8. New. about a week ago in regard to their voting ngeinst the Cummins bill which would have given nation-wide prohibition, Rev. Ward yesterday received a letter from Senator Watson. The telegram was in form of resolution! which were adopted at the mas meeting held at the Centenary Methodist church a week ago Sunday in the interest of the Y. M. C A. movement in the army and navy. The letter read ax follows: "In order that you may properly understand the situation, which I see that you do not, I will state the conditions. 'When the vote on th" Cummins' amendment was taken the firtt time in the senate, I was at the departments running down a matter for a lot of fellows who were trying to change certain methods of proposed taxation. The second time the 'picstion came up. I voted against it. "Dinwiddle, representing the Antisaloon League here, did not want that amendment on that bill in that way. Wheeler, representing the same organization in ' Ohio, told Senator Harding that they did aot want Cummins to bring up the amendment at all because it was aot the proper place to bring it up. "Nation-wiii. prohibition ia uncon stitutional without nn amendment to the constitution and all the tivnperance p.ople of the country have been waiting until they could get states enough to put the amendment into !he constitution. Just what got into thee people all at once to flare up on a proposition of, this kind is past mv understanding. "In my .'udgment there never was a more ill-advised or ill-timed amendment offered than the one proposed by Senator Cummins. He is a very able and very honest man. but, after all, waa not doing the cause of temperance great good by hia proposition. We have a number of men in these bodies representing strong temper ance states who kick the temperance question around like a foot ball and offer temperance amendments on every proposition that comes up in either branch of congress. 1 hey are really temperance men, "Hut after all they are quite anx ious to offer amendments and then go hack home and flourish them in tin presence of the people and proclain their loyalty to this great question. "They don't want to kill the mad dog but they want to cut off a piece f his tail today nnd a sliver out of ni ear tomorrow ana men run nmnr and hold it up to the public for the purpose of letting the people see h brave they are wnen a mad dog is around. "I shall vote for nation-wide prohibition when it comes at the right time and in the right way but veryfew really believe in this amendment and the temperance people themselves were opposed tu putting it on that bill at that time. . "1 f the president and the various departmentr shall arge this upon congress as a war measure and show that it is necessary for food conservation. 1 shall vote for it as a war recommendation. "You must remember that there are a very great many angles to every public question preeented at thi momentous time, and before you condemn any one to everlasting punishment, permit me to say that it is probably fair for you to look at the question from every viewpoint and team the farts. "I have no qualms of conserve whatever, because of my vote on this question.. I was everlastingly right ar.d I know it. "This letier is not written in any spirit of malice or of vindirtiveness. because that I never have and never manifest, but is written only as t plain statement of truth." FA IB VIEW.

The Thrift Habit has been at the root of most business successes. The man with a plan succeeds. Small as well as large enterprises are carried to completion only by a plan, a steadfast purpose carried out with persistent endeavor. A plan was needed for the Panama canal and so is a plan needed for gardening a city lot. Perhaps you may get the thrift habit or saving plan through the Rural Credit Loan & Savings Association G.
