Essi inc GfuQGe or the kT0nG6 dO0106D
against the temperance movement In
.Norwayis getting more and more pro-
nounced. A few years ago the French
actually brought such pressure TO
bear upon the Norwegian storthin0
that this body failed to pass certain
anttliquor laws viii ID the country was
ready for. The people CRASHED their
teeth and swallowed the pill. But they
have not gotten over 1t yet. The
dry territory Is constantly growing,
and when It Is dry on the map the
alcoholic moisture 10 forthwith rel
duced to negligible quantity. The
French wine dealers are watching this
game, and they begin to blame the M.
tional government for permitting It.
Two leading French newspapers ~;
Gently contained an article ON this
subject by "A president OF cham
Der Of commerce" He says in part:
II the government In Krfsuania re-
mains deaf to the voice OF reason and
justice, the cabinet In Paris will not
hesitate to enforce observance of In
ternational agreements by means Of
retaliation in the shape of the abrogar
ton Of the treaty OF 1909. We would
be great slmpletons indeed II we were
to, injure the home fish industry On
our European and African coasts BY
favoring fish from firms residing in
cities whose common councils and pop
ulation manifest hostility to French
products by suppressiag or assisting
in suppressing the liquor traffic. The
danger is imminent: the chambers of
commerce in the districts affected, the
national wine and spirits syndicate, at
its congress in May, the French ex-
porters' union, the international wine
and spirits committee, the trades
unions, all of these have done their
duty by emphatically urging the
French government to take an az
gressive stand. II the government
takes such stand without hesitation,
it may be sure of support to an
equal extent from all commercial or
CARNATIONS in the districts of produc-
ton" The parties in Norway use
this article on both sides, the prohibi-,
tionists on the score Of patriotism and
autonomy, their opponents, - on the.
score Of financial danger to the coun--
