WASHINGTON, July 21. (^—Sen
ator Edwards, democrat from New
Jersey, accused Senator Borah of
casting “A dastardly slur on hundreds
of Americans seeking modification of
the Volstead law.” Edwards said
Senator Borah’s contained more fury
and less sense than any other
thoughts which he has given expres
sion since he attained the heights of
American statemanship. “To place
an honest and sincere advocate re
peal to the Eighteenth amendment
and modification of the Volstead act
in the same category with Russian bol
shevists, Black Shirt fascists and Po
lish demagogic dictators, is a dastard
ly slur on scores, aye, on hundreds of
minds just as genuinely American,
just as patriotic, just as unaffected
with dishonest motives and just as
free of disguise and false pretense
as Senator Borah’s own. I shall con
tinue the right, as a free untrammel
ed American, to voice the praise of
good, and thg denunciation of the
bad.”
