LIQUOR THE CAUSE.
Responsible for High Cost Of Living
Says MIR. Chain.

From the band stand of City Hall Park
Sunday evening Mr.. Chain addressed the
passers-by on the one large plank of his
platform, the root and cause of all evil,
the liquor traffic. Mr.. Chafln said that
both Woodrow Wilson and Theodore
Roosevelt either were afraid or did not
know what they We're about. He said
that Roosevelt clearly did not know his
political bearings, since he had said that
he was for appointing a commission to
determine the cause of the high cost of
living. II he had asked Mr.. Chain he
would have been informed that the cause
of the high cost of living is the liquor
traffic.
Mr., Chain said that II was not only
the cause of the high cost of living but
of practically all other problems. lie
said that crime was only an off-shot from
II. that II was the father of poverty
and distressful conditions which make
old age pensions necessary. lie implied
that once we had strangled this traffic
We might close up our prisons and let
our courts go out of business. He said
It was the basis of the economic prob
lem. But how this came about he did
not make quite clear. He insisted tina. Il
was the only really important conserva-
ton, the conservation OF human life and
efficiency.
