GERMANY DRY BY
1930, WWTS
Delegate te W. C. T. U. Conven
tion Here Admit It Will
Be an Uphill Fight
2000 WOMEN AT CONCLAVE
A dry Germany by 10301
Krnuleln Gustel von lUuchcr, presi
dent of the Women's Christian Union
of Germany, brought that slogan with
her from her nnth'e land. On the
threshold of the first executive session
of the four-tiny world conclave of the
world's W. C. T. U., which was opened
here today, she made It public.
Frniilein von llluchcr, who Represents
all nf Germany nt the convention, ad
mitted that her countrymen would pre
test greatly.
"Hut we are protesting, tee," she
snld Eoed-nnturedly. "That is xvhat It
will be a dry Germany by 1030."
The delegate from Germany pointed
out that drinking in her country hnd
greatly increased since the war. She
contended that the beer is net harmless
because It is higher powered than ever,
containing 8 per cent of nlcohel new.
Ne legislation for dry laws in Gcr
mnny has been attempted lis yet, she
snld, nnd shook her head ns though this
were out nf the question nt this time.
Drinking hns Increased because of the
Increasing sorrow In her homeland, she
explained, and the people are drowning
their sorrows In this fashion. A Oer
maiv tempernnce femimtttce lias, how
ever, been founded nndjs meeting with
success.
The city is literally in possession of
-000 women, representing forty coun
tries, who have traveled from every np
ptcclable city In the United Stntes and
from every civilized country In the
world te be uretent this morning at
the enenlnc of the four-da v world con
clave in the Hellcvue-Stratfenl.
.e fermnl meeting will be held until
tonight, when nt a banquet in the Belle-vuo-Stratferd
the visitors will be wel
comed by Governer-elect Pinchot, Gov Gov
ereor Sproul, Mayer Moere, Mrs. Ru Ru
eolph Ulankcnburg and Mrs. Uarclay
Warburton.
This morning sessions was given
ever te registration, introduction of
the vnrisus contingents nnd nn execu
tive session of the world council.
World-Wide Delegates Here
World superintendents from Pales
tine, Australia, China, Indln New Zcul
and, Seuth Afrlcn nnd countries lu all
parts of the glebe were in attendance.
.Much of the session was consumed in
discussing the co-eperntlon of mission
aries nil ever the world with temperance
forces. Miss Ellen M. Stene, former)
of Macedonia, laid special stress en this
matter. Miss Stene's name went around
the world soma years uge when she was
attacked by brigands in liulgarlu and
spent some time in prison there.
A feature of the session 'was the
sending te the chairman nnd committee
of .1000 women who opposed the Wright
bill in California, of n telegram nf
congratulation en Its defeat. Tlie tele
tjriun said there wns cause for world werld world
xvlde rejoicing because Culifernin wns
the greatest wine-growing Stnte in
America and if such laws could be
upheld there it xvas a happy partem
for ether districts. Tlie Wright bill
sought te bring lecul option for alco
holic beverages huckete Culifernin.
Miss Anna A. Gorden presided nt
the meeting.
Tlie lobby of the Ilellcvuc-Strntferd.
where headquarters are situated, was
surging with conversation that was a
literal babel of tongues.
The nceents of the Seuth mingled
with that niregether-dlfferent drawl
thnt halls from New England. There
were the r's that enme flatly and
frnnkly from the Middle West nnd r's
that nren't sounded nt nil from some
place else.
And occasionally every one stepped
talking cntlrclv, for there was the
iilmend-eycd delegate, Miss Utnkn
Heyushi, putting in a weid, or then,
again, it wns Miss Hnnl.vniu Nervilk,
who took twenty-five days te come here
from Argentlnn. But nobody minded
the miles or the different sort of ac

cent.". Etch .woman were a little white
ribbon en her ceut.
The progress of temperance In th;
various lands wns the general topic of
conversation, or the question or pro
hibition in America,
Miss Nervllle, who is the dcleinte
Ter all Seuth America nnu wue mean
her home in Buenes Aires, brought
news from Uruguay, xnnt utiie coun
try has put in prohibition as a plank
in Its presidential campaign. Argen
tina is gradually working its way
"But in Argentina," she said with
a flashing smile, "they take American
prohibition as a Jeke. The Americans
the North American de the drinking
there, and they de a treat deal of It.
There is a saying, 'If you sce n man
stagger en the street, speak English
"In Seuth America we have net the
saloon evil, but the grocery store evil.
That's funny, isn't it? Kvery Bwcery
Is like a corner saloon. They sel lique
and the men sit around and drink and
gamble. The Government Is righting
this evil new."
Miss Nervllle spoke vigorously of
the drinking of the "North Americans"
en the stnmcr en the way tip.
"It was disgraceful," she sold. "On
the night of the dance they caroused
until J 6'cleck in the morning."
The twenty-five-day trip of the
Seuth American delegate was an ad
venturous one. Five of these days
were spent motionless off shore of the
Bermuda Islands. This was for lock of
oil, nnd the oil had been thrown over
board Jy a drunken engineer.
Mrs. Florence Ewcll Atkins, who
lives In Savannah, Ge., new. but who
a short time age erganised the . O.
T U In Cuba, spoke also of the drink
ing Indulged in by Americans who go
te the island.
"The old days of free open drinking
are lu vogue. Cocktails are swung
f.niv about and there is much drunk
enness everywhere. It hns, In n cer
tain sense, neipeu our -uuse mm mu
thinking Cubans. They feel that some
thing must be done nbeut It. During
the time I spent there I erpanlr.ed three
Latin unions and one Engllsh-spenklng
one nnd legions for the children."

At the meeting tonight additional
greetings will be made by Mrs. Ella M.
Geerge, president of the Pennsylvania
W. C. T. tJ.. and Mrs. II. 15. Fnbne Fnbne

The "Hall of Clocks
The room allotted te clocks at the

future years.
The present collection of clocks in

importance establishes a new
Philadelphia precedent, and its
proper display is provided for in the
"Hall of Clocks," which patrons are
