THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAN, PORTLAyP, JULY 13, 1913. ENDEAVORERS LAY ANTI-LIQUOR PLANS Speaker Declares Hobson's Federal Regulation Bill Does Not Go Far Enough. 'STEADY COURSE" ADVISED ToHcy of Organization for Net Two Years Is Outlined Canada Falls to Wrest Next Convention From Chicago. LOS ANGELES, July 12. This was a day of conference among: the thousands of delegates to the 2nth International Christian Endeavor Convention now be Injr held In Los Angeles. Twenty meetings were held, at the most Important of which Rev. Daniel A. Poling-, of Columbus, O.. National super intendent of the temperance and Chris tian citizenship divisions of the United Society of Christian Endeavor, acted as leader and outlined the policy of the organization for the next two years. The most Important part of Dr. Pol lngr's plan was the work to be done In the campaign which has for Its object a "saloonless United States by 1920." Ultimately, he said, he hoped there would be a Federal constitutional amendment prohibiting the manufac ture and sale of liquor. Hobson Bill Not Enough. He declared that' Christian Endeavor leaders were not satisfied with the pro hibition bill Introduced in Congress by Representative Hobson, of Alabama, because of "loopholes" In it. "The Hobson measure," he said, "seeks to prevent the manufacture of liquor for use as a beverage, but this does not go far enough. It should Dro- vlde against the importation or expor tation of liquor.," He avocated ' Nation-wide pledge signing campaigns in the United States and in Canada as methods of changing Bentiment In favor of temperance. "We must adopt a steady course on the nature of alcohol and the relation of the liquor traffic to social and In dustrial life," said Dr. Poling, "and we must urye co-operation and active participation of all Christian Endeavor era in local, state and National cam paigns for prohibition with all other organizations uniting in a common for ward movement." Temperance Union Recommended. He recommended that all members of the Christian Endeavor party unite temperance forces by taking part In the convention of all temperance or ganizations called- for Columbus, O., next November. Dr. Poling also suggested that to create a new patriotism the Sunday be fore each Fourth of July should be ob served by Christian Endeavorers as "Good Citizenship" day. The Columbus speaker gave high commendation to Governor Johnson, of California, for having signed the "red light" Injunction bin. Junior and intermediate rallies were held this afternoon and tonight a com plimentary dinner was tendered to the Los Angeles 1913 convention committee by the trustees of the United Society of Christian Endeavor. Canada 'Renews Its Klgbt. Although Chicago was chosen yester day as the scene of the next biennial International Christian Endeavor Con vention, the Canadian delegates, led by Rev. S. A. Martin, of Winnipeg, at tempted late today to wrest the honor away from the Illinois ciiy and give it to a Canadian city, preferably Winni peg. A special meeting of the trustees of the union was called and a motion to reconsider the selection cu the conven tion city was made. Long arguments followed. Rev. Mr. Martin contending that before the convehtlon was begun It had been practically agreed that the next convention should go to a Cana dian city. The motion to reconsider was lost.
