Republican Nominee's Views Of
1918 Are Given In Speech
At Tyron.
Trycxn — Former Congressman
j James F. Byrnes, of Spartanburg,
j speaking under the auspices of the
j national Democratic committee here
! said that while many sincere pro
hibitionists disiiked the attitude of
Governor Smith on the prohibition
question, there was not so much dif
ference in the true Uews of the can
didates on the subject, as would
justitfy a Democrat in deserting his
party.
He said:
“It is difficult to get drunk on
2 3-4 per cent beer.’ That sounds
like the statement of Governor j
Smith. As a matter of fact it is
the language of Herbert Hoover, ut- :
tered by him in 1918 in an effort |
to defeat national prohibition. There 1
was pending in the house of repre
sentanves what was known as the
food control bill. Mr. Barkley of
Kentucky, now senator from that
state, offered an amendment pro
hibiting the use of food stuffs in
the manufacture of alcoholic bever
ages. By this amendment it was
sought to establish national prohibi
tion before the adoption of the 18th
amendment. Hoover opposed it. It
was adopted by the house. While
the bill was pending in the senate
Hoover gave out a statement which
was inserted in the Congressional
Record on June 6. 1918. at page1
8034. containing the following lan
guage:
" If the American people want
prohibition, it should be prohibited
by legislation to that end and not
force the food administration to the
responsibility of an orgy of drunk
enness. It is most difficult to get
drunk on 2 3-4 per cent beer; it j
will be easy enough if we force a
substitution of distilled drinks for
it.’ ”
4 Chinese Die As Tongs War
New York, Oct. 15.—After two
years of uneasy peace, the ancient
warfare between the Hip Sing and

flared up again.
This is the police interpretation
of a series of shooting affrays
which, in the last 36 hours, have
resulted in the death of four
Chinese and the wounding of eight
in Chicago. Philadelphia, Washing
ton and this city.
