A most Eugono W. 'Chafin of Tucson, who ran for president of the United States in 1908. Mr. Chafin arrived in Des Moines last night and will make three addresses on "National Prohibition in 1916" today.

"I am thoroughly in accord with Bryan and Ford in this peace movement." continued Mr. Chafin. "When this war Is over the countries of Europe will not have enough gunpowder to shoot off a firecracker." FroMiiti on Utile Campaign. The veteran prohibitionist docs not favor the Odle crusade for the enforcement of the blue laws. "Let the officers alcne," he said.

"Although sometimes they, may not do all we want tbera to, those that work in Iowa are certainly efficient and conscientious. Let us not interfere with them." The prohibitionists of Iowa, Wisconsin and Illinois, according to Mr. Chafin, are planning an active campaign for next year. In this Btate alone 500 automobiles are to be mobilized in Des Moines, Marshalltown, Mason City and other points, and will make the trip to Minneapolis, where the democratic prohibitionists' national convention will be held on July 19. Speeches In the interest of temperance are to be made all along the route.

Hohson for Dry reader. Richmond Pearson Hobson of Alabama will probably be the presidential nominee of the prohibition party for 1916, Mr. Chafin said. "At any rate, the choice will fall upon some young man that will leave the ranks of the republican or democratic parties because of "their refusal to adopt a dry plank." Taft will get the republican nomination, ha predicted. "Alter all the favorite sons have had their innings, he will come in as delegate at large from Connecticut anit carry the day.

Wilson will be the democratic choice, but Taff could defeat him easily." Criticises Iowa's Plan. Mr. Chafin took his customary fling at Iowa's proposed prohibitory amendment. "It is aimed only at the manufacture, the sale, or the keeping for sale of alcoholic liquors. That's not enough.

What is wanted is the kind of law that went into effect In Arizona last January. It prohibits the use of alcohol for any purpose-medicinal, mechanical, scientific or personal." Mr. Chafin, who is making his headquarters at the Wellington hotel, will leave Des Moines tonight. He will return on March 1, 1916, for an extensive campaign throughout Iowa lasting five months.

11. Creation of a naval flying corps, establishment of a school for training navy aviators and increase in the number of midshipmen at the naVal academy by about one-half are proposals included in a tentative draft of tiie naval appropriation bill, some details of which became known tonight. The proposed increase in the naval academy would permit each senator to appoint three midshipmen instead of two as at present. For two years after passage of the act the secretary of the navy would be empowered to appoint ten junior officers and five warrant officers a year from civil life on provisional commissions, to be revoked in two years unless the officers prove fully qualified as aviators. A reserve corps of aviators also is provided for, to be composed of men transferred from the active service and the surplus of graduates from the school and also open to qualified civilians.

A training of from two weeks to a month annually is planned for the reserve. under arms. All sizes, 34 to $2.98 44 at White of pink mercerized Swiss Ribbed Vests with hand crocheted yokes, at 50c. gifts will be put iu attractive gift boxes. The yard beautiful fabric foi) suits and skirts.
