What does .a “damyankee” knbw about the South's problems!—is his view. , Possibly some folks won’t consider this answer of Colie’s fully explana tory. However, it’^ the only one they’ll getv out of Senator Blease. When he's said his say, he’s through. Take or leave it. He’ll amplify for no “damyankee.” The peculiar thing is that Colie has vituperated the Eighteenth amend ment and the Volstead act in far stronger teims than A1 Smith ever used. When you stop to consider, though Smith is known as a wet, his lan guage toward piohibition always has been parlimentary. Colie has ran sacked 'the dictionary for adjectives, to express his ^oor opinion of it, <j*nd he had an extraordinary vocabulary to begin with.
