Loyalty to local interests has often

and that such policy has paid is
evidenced by the constantly increasing
volume of business that has flowed

The latest evidence of the local
spirit as manifested by this firm was
the receipt this week through the

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo, July
22.-"I believe there is too much Of
q tendency to sexaggerate the influ-
ence of strong drink in producing
criminals. I do not know, and I do
not think any man knows what per-
,centage Of the prisoners in our penal
institutions are there because of
strong drink" -"
So spoke Rev. w. e. Collect, secre-
tary Of the Colorado State Prison as,
ISOLATION for the last six years, and
general secretary of the Charity Or
Sanization Society Of Denver, in a.
answer to Father William Organ at
the semi-annual conference of the
Colorado State Board of Charities and
Correction recently at the state house.
Collects answer created a sensation
in the meeting, to which was added
another thriller a moment later when
Rabbi w. S. Friedman, presiding, said
that he had been informed by the
president of the Charity Organization
Society, of Denver, that only 10
per cent of those who applied for
charity are the victims of Intoxicating
liquor.
Questioned further by some who
remained after the meeting, Rabbi
Friedman said:
The percentage quoted I obtained
from President Pershing, of the as
ISOLATED charities. I may not have
remembered the right percentage
given, but 1 am sure that it was with
in 1 Ito per cent.
Tuberculosis Needs Fight.
Il do not know as a fact that the
Jewish Relief Society, which takes
care of thousands of unfortunates of
all races, has statistics to prove that
not more. than one-hundredth of one
per cent of those who apply are either
directly or indirectly victims of strong
drink. I do not believe in being fan
atical regarding these matters. It is
tuberculosis that gives the trouble to
our charity workers in Colorado"
The meeting was the greatest ever
held by the state board of charities
and correction, both in point of at
tendance and in the Importance of
the topics discussed. The subjects
TOR discussion were the causes for the
needs of charities and the dispersal
ton Of money for charity.
Inc meeting was about to adjourn
when Father Organ, after hearing
paper by Collect on the work that is
being done to reform prisoners, asked
"hat part liquor played in GRIM
