and America's Principles Peril Treaty Relations These two principles combined are formidable If they were accepted they would destroy the whole bails of the treaty relationship set up In the Washington conference Let us recall what those relationships were The United States came to the Washington conference with a naval building program undtr way which If completed would have made us the first naval power The British had an alliance with Japan The Japanese had taken a big bite out of China Tha Washington conference was a compromise in the interests of general peace The United States gave up naval supremacy end accepted equality in capital snlps wlth Great Britain The British gave up their Japanese alliance Japan and the United States agreed upon a ratio of three to five In return the United States agreed not to fortify islands In the western Pacific thus making it impossible top the American levy to give battle on the Asiatic aide of the ocean Japan In return gave up Shantung and signed the Nine Power treaty recognizing the Integrity of China Now as Secretary Stlmson pointed out In 1932 all these agreements were interrelated We for example did not build a navy which outclasses Seems entirely lost New York no longer has what the theatrical profession knows as galleries" Old the saltiest Excellent perfomers often got the bird Nothing could be done Unless a plff-awmer caught the favor of the upper roost he was a lad spectacle The second roughest was the Colonial on upper Broadway a vaudeville house then patronized by lads blazing with guttery epithets from Hell's Kitchen George Jeesel lasted there in early days just one performance It broke his heart Governor Henry Blood' Meanwhile there can be no change I In the Utah situation as it" relates to the liquor problem The I state Its officers and its people are obligated to observe and a enforce the law as It Is now written Governor Blood In his address to the members of the commission emphasized the need of sound tew enforcement during the study or observation period and until such time as the legislature determines the future course lrhe repeal question has been woefully confused In the minds of many people Far too many have concluded Its adoption meant the Immediate repudiation of existing laws and existing regulations others have anticipated a new ordfir as a matter of course ind hays prepared to meet the new situation Evidence of this Is found In tyie Increasing number ef beer bars which strangely resemble the old-fashioned saloon Legalization of "beer In' Utah In and of Itself did not contemplate nor does It Justify the creation of these Joints It did contemplate open sale of 32 beer as a lawful product In any grocery store' drug store or restaurant It no doubt would be confined to this If It were not for the greater expectation of greater privileges In the future That Is why the question of enforcement stressed by the governor Is so all Important The question of liquor control 1s the problem of determining the general desires of the people with regard to the future traffic We obviously were dissatisfied with the prohibition experiment and we do not want to return to the ancient evils of the old saloon days What then la It that our people want?
