PROHIBITION FUNDS
3 ~ 5 A LEADER ACCUSED [ (Australian and N.Z. Cable Association.) ) NEW YORK, July 20. A sensational case, which, for long i has agitated both the prohibitionists ? and the anti-prohibitionists, came to a climax to-day, when a Grand Jury indicted W. 11. Anderson, the New York State Superintendent of the Anti-Saloon League, on the charges of a former employee of the AntiSaloon League, that Anderson misapproprited large amounts of the League funds. When the charges were first made, the Rockefellers, who had contributed largely to the League funds, withdrew much of their support. Anderson has been one of the most vigorous dry agitators in the American Anti-Saloon League, playing a big part in the campaign which eventually resulted in prohibition.
