Mr. Lansing explained that when the American expedition was ordered across the border to pursue Villa, General had Inquired of the state department regarding the proposed strength of the force and campaign plans contemplated. Since then the de facto conhas been kept advised stantly regarding the progress of the chase.

Recent state department advices have given no clew to the outlaws whereabouts. The last report several days ago had him located near Satevo. Since then department agents have reported Inability to secure any further definite clew. An encouraging feature of the campaign today was found In reports In-to both state and war departments between dicating actual the American and de facto government troops.

The speaker read a. magazine article written In a sarcastic Teln telling of the "ruin" that prohibition has brought to Kansas, that ruin consisting of the ruined liquor and gambling industries and blighting of every activity save the making marrying, educating children and driving of expensive automobiles by farmers. He quoted statistics showing that there is spent in the United States $750,000,000 annually for tobacco and $2,100,000,000 for liquor. How Dollar Grow. compiled by experts," he "Figures said, "show that a dollar turns itself over and over, doing about $100 worth of work each year In a community. "If Utah spends only as much for liquor "and tobacco as other states, just think how much work that money would do In a year. In money Is power. If we had kept that money It would have been a power with which to dictate to the world." The speaker quoted at length from a pamphlet by Henry Ford entitled "The Little White Slaver." directed against the clgaret. From a magazine he read a statement to the effect that In fifty years no student who uses tobacco has graduated from Harvard at the head of his class." Such statistics and statements, he declared, vindicate the doctrines of the prophet Joseph Smith. He closed with an appeal to the members'of the church to keep their children from using cigar-et- s or liquor. Apostle Rudger Clawson was the next speaker. "Joseph Smith was the most striking figure by far of the nineteenth century' declared Apostle Clawson. "I realize that this is a bold statement, and will be regarded by some as preis ample evidence but there sumptuous, to sustain It." He went on to enumerate the achievements and revelations of the prophet. "If all the books In the world sa've the Bible, the Rook of Mormon, the Doctrine and Covenants and the Pearl of Great Price were destroyed." he said "those four would form a library and a basis for historians to regenerate the world." in restoring the eternity of the marcovenant he declared riage Smith had provided a means forJoseph doing away with the divorce evil. ate Action.

Then he read from the Doctrine and Covenants the words of the prophet JoSmith concerning liquor and toseph bacco. "Let us make up our minds." he said, "henceforth to drive from our midst every evil thing. I hope the Mormons will exercise the franchise and send good men to the halls of the legislature and to the governor's chair, good and honorable men who will see to it that the temptation of the adversary Is taken from among us." Itewult of Self lnhnesw. Apostle Smith began by declaring that selfishness brought about both the European war and the trouble In Mexico. He declared that In the gospel as taught by the church laj-- the solution of both the European and Mexican problems. "It Is difficult." he said, "to turn the other cheek, but that Is the Lord's way of redeeming the earth." The priesthood he charged with the of preaching the gospel responsibility to residents of Utah. "We send missionaries to the ends of the earth." he said, "but does our duty end there?
