Beorelary MoAdoo, in an interview bandied by tbe PreBB Asso olatious, aaya tbat be bas received hundreds of protests from all over tbe oonntry from bnsiness men who allege that tbey are unable lo proonre tbe osnal loan accommodations from their baokH, despite the fact tbat deposits, as a general tale, bave inoreased, and tbe additional faot tbat tbe federal government has recently issued nearly 1500,000,000 of emergency onrrenoy all of which has been deposited with tbe national banks throughout th oonntry. Tbe secretary of tbe treasury threatens to withdraw this emergnnoy onrrenoy from tbe banks, and intim ated that the government might take band in tbe situation to tba extent of formnlaiing some plan to make direot Treasury loans to merchants and manufacturers. Speaking of our nan Mayor, Colonel Wood aays in the Weston Lander "We admire tbe courage rather tban the discretion of tbe Honorable Homer I.

I am a thorough believer in LOCAL SELF-GOVERNMENT and believe that every self, governing community which constitutes a social unit should have the right to CONTROL the matter of the regulation or the withholding of licenses." WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT Ex-Presldent, Statesman, jurist and , rronusor, in an address on uivio ' Iiuty, auld: "Nothing is more foolish, noth ing more utterly at variance with sound policy, than to en act a law which, on account of conditions surrounding the community, is incapable of en forcement, Such instances are . . . presented by sump tuary laws by which the sale of intoxicating liquors is pro hibited under penalties in lo calities Where the publio senti ment . . will not sustain the enforcement of the law." y THEODORE JPSEVEIT Sx-resident, Soldier, Explorer and one of the most remark able leaders in the United States, is a strong champion of LOCAL SELF-GOVERNMENT and Home Rule. He has never raised his voice in behalf of statewide prohibition, and so he has suffered attacks from radical and hysterical prohibi tionists. As between a man of Theodore Roosevelt's ability and standing and those who are the paid emissaries of pro fessional propagandists, the voters of Oregon will not be slow in passing upon the wis dom and credibility of the witnesses. With these three National Leaders agreed on the Issue ot Prohibition, Isn't It wis dom to follow their course?
