the National Germa Alliance was
formally welcomed to Ohio and to Gin
cinnati yesterday. The main business
meeting of the body will be held to-
day.
At the opening meeting Gov. Judson
Harmon, in welcoming the visiting
delegates on Behalf OF the state, paid
eloquent tribute to the German Ameri-
cans of America, ascribing to them
love of liberty that is characteristic Of
them as a people and which he said
can but make for good in the country
of their adoption.
Mayor John Calvin also spoke, well
coming the delegates, and Or. c. j.
HeXamer Of Philadelphia, president Of
the alliance. responded.
In his address President Hexamer
said in part:
"As devoted citizens OF this country,
we hold ourselves second 20 none in our
devotion TO the cause of true temper
ance and to all that makes for the
sanctity Of home and decency and or
der in the state; but "a are bitterly
opposed to the passage of am law that
destroys our rights of personal liberty.
AS free and sovereign people we be-
lieve that we have the right to regulate
our lives as we see At.
Attribute OF Liberty.
Tho right to drink our wine and our
beer we consider as absolute an attrib-
ute Of human liberty as is the right
to buy any other food.
THE divine right OF each to pursue
his own good In his oyn way should
not be sacrificed to the fears and fanat-
icism of those who regard or pretend
to regard drink as a crime
I'VE German Americans have never
allowed our love Of food or drink TO
degenerate into intemperahce or to in
terfere with the good of the commun-
ity. and VIC regard prohibition as an
unrighteous invasion of our manhood
rights and OF human freedom.
A Fanatical Majority
1.-THE strongest plea that can be put
forward for the mildest form of prohi-
bition-local option--is that It enables
fanatical majority TO lord over a
liberal minded people. Let us hope that
the spirit of liberty and American fair
play will soon cause a reaction against
