BRYAN'S VIEWS ON
LIQUOR QUESTION
Advises Total Abstinence, But
Does Not Favor PrOhibi-
ton by Law.

CHICAGO. May ls-As the guest OF
the Catholic Total Abstinence Union o:
America here tonight. William J. Bryan
gave his initial lecture on the liquor
question.
Mr.. Bryan Is on his way to Edinburgh,
Scotland. to attend an International meet
ing of temperance workers. He will
leave Chicago early tomorrow morning.
AS 10 tho Individual Mr.. Bryan said that
wherever opportunity offered he advised
others 10 abstain, from the use of liquor In
any form. holding II is not wise to drink
even in moderation. Giving his Views
on Sumptuary explanation and personal
liberty, he said
Il would not favor legislation forbid =
ding use OF liquor at any time OF under
any circumstances. would consider this
an unnecessary limitation upon the lib
erty OF the individual but / am In favor
OF such restriction as may seem neces
sary for the protection of society.
The right TO drink may be abused and
il may bA forfeited. The right to drink
is not more sacred than the mothers
right 10 sober son: the wife's sacred
right TO n sober husband, and the child $
right TO a sober father The right TO
drink Is not more sacred than the right
TO life and yet the right TO life can be

''In like manner. one can forfeit the
right 10 drink II. instead Of asking for
the right TO drink under reasonable re-
strict!ons he attempts 10 enforce that
right to such a degree as TO make his
use OF liquor and the sale OF # a menace
TO society.
The first proposition ] would lay down
In the discussion Of liquor legislation is
that the people have a right TO fix the
terms and conditions upon which intoXi-
eating liquors should be sold and used
That proposition lis fundamental

nation. each should have the undisputed
right to exclude the sale OF liquor within
Its limits or to fix such restrictions upon
the sale Of liquor the people OF the
unit may deem necessary for their pro-
lection and welfare / believe also that
the larger unit has n right TO control the

commerce. according TO statistics Sc
cured by the department OF commerce
and la Dor. showed a marked Improvement
IN all the principal countries Of the world
for the year ending in April 1910.
a report OF the bureau Just issued
stated:
international trade. as is we'll known.
Tell off In the period following the (inan-
cial depression of l907-S, and as A
consequence. the import and export fig
urcs OF nearly all countries were smaller
in 1908 than in the immediately prcccd-
ing years, The Increase shown by the
figures OF the current year is therefore
I'm most cases more distinctly a return
TO normal conditions than an actual ad-
vance over thosc which existed prior TO
The financial depression Of l907-oS
In many cases, however. the figures
OF the current year are materially larger
than ever before and IT. is probable that
the total OF international trade in the
calendar year 1910 Will surpass that OF
any former year"
In the United States exports during the
ten months Of the current fiscal year
averaged t45.S million dollars per month
against 1903 millions per month last
year and 16l millions per month two
years ago.
Imports for the same period averaged
1915 millions per month as against 1911
last year. lol.S two years ago and 119.5
