Administration, Is Opinion of Some;

chairman, addressed the letter to
Franklin D. Roosevelt, Governor of
New York, who read it before tne

A SIV THE PRICE RANGE OF THE FOUR
of saloons and bootl'i.jgc r«. In other
words, Wickersham propose 1 the Fed
eral government concern itself with
the wholesale end of the liquor busi
ness and the states wah the. retail
end.
The letter does does not indicate
whether this division should he ac
complished through actual change n
the Volstead Act or thru mach'ne/y
already existing. At his office ir.
New York, Wickirsuam refused to
comment upon hi3 letter, pleading a
press of other work. There seems t<
be a tendency amon^ these at the
conference, however, to interpret the
proposal as implying a change in the
law.
Great importance was attached to
the letter, not only because of its di
rect bearing upon prohibition, but
also because it marked the first ut
terance of the President’s commis
sion upon the prohibition t uestion.
There was a general belief that
adoption of such a law would embody
nn important govermental recogni
‘ion of State’s rights, for it would
mean the withdrawal of the Federal
government from local enforcement.,
having all such responsibility with
‘.he states.
Opinions
Governor Gardner: ‘I ‘think the
letter expresses the law enforcement
situation clearly. In regard to modi
fication, my opinion is that the last
election expressed the sentiment of
the country.”
Governor Case, Rhode Island: The
subject is one on which 1 have no
opinion to offer.”
Governor Roosevelt, New York:
‘‘The proposal and the discussion of
it by Mr. Wickersham are purely
speculative. Beyond that I don’t
want to say anything.”
Governor Hammilll, Iowa: “The
suggested division of authority is a
forward-stepping move. The mention
of modification denotes weakness.
We should educate and build senti
ment amoung our citizens so they
will cooperate in the enforcement of
all laws. Modification then would
not be necessary.”
Governor Richards, South Carolina
“In my opinion, modification is
necessary, but it wil never take place
in my state.”
Governor George Dern, Utah: “The
suggestion of division of authority
sounds logical. It will be of great aid
in doing away with the passing of the
law enforcement buck. In my opin
ion, there never will be modification
in Utah. If so-called public-spirited
citizens obey the law there can be no
difficulty in enforcing it.”
Governor Byrd, Virginia: ‘The pro
posal is very interest .ng, I want to
study more of it before I comment
on it.”
Governor Caulfield, Missouri: “In
teresting constructive.”
Governor Conley, W. Va.: “We en
force all the laws in West Virginia,
and so far as we are concerned, we
don’t need modification of the pio
hibition law in our state.
Governor Trumbull, Connecticut:
“We are intent on enforcing our own
laws in our own way in our own
state.”
