BARTH0LDT FLAWS
PROHIBITION LAWS

called on all liberal citizens to join

Are you ware that the last con-
gress, composed of a democratic
House and republican Senate" he de-
handed. passed a prohibition meas
ure by more than a two-thirds ma
jority? And that the lawyers who con-
stitute IS per cent OF the membership
knew 1t was Unconstitutional and Vot-
ed for it any how? 1t Is a fact.
president Taft, true to his oath to
defend the constitution, had the cOur-
age TO veto that bill. but the same
two-thirds majority, although they had
taken exactly the same oath as the
president, passed IT over his veto.
Calls II Faddism.
when things have come to such
q pass that such representative law
makers will overthrow a constitution
for a popular fad, do you not agree
with me that our liberties. for which
the constitution is our only guaran-
tee, are In the greatest possible dan
ger?"
The MissOurian declared the struggle
OF the & in the United States was
between the Puritan and his blue laws
on one hand, and the pleasure-loving
Germanic people on the other. He
denounced the collection of funds in
churches and by religious OrganiZa-
tons, which he charged. were used to
intimidate lawmakers in both the a
tiOnal and the state legislatures.
The ministers of all churches and the
members OF all congregations are con
stantly called on for support and for
money to maintain Hobbies in both the
national as well as all state capitals

CURRENCY REFORM
MESSAGE FINISHED

washington, u n 17.-President
Wilson probably will read his currency
message personally to both branches OF
congress assembled in the hall Of the
House, as he did his tariff message.
He finished writing the message today.
II Is about 1900 words long and urges
immediate revision OF the banking and
currency laws.
The president expects the currency
bill to be launched in both houses of
congress some time this week. 1t rep
resents he administrations views and
according to Mr.. Wilson himself will
be mo mans bill"

gestions were condensed and formu-
lated by Secretary McAdOo OF the
treasury department. Chairmen Owen
and Glass OF the Senate and House
banking ard cul rency committees re-
spectively, with the advice and assist
ance OF the president.
Bill Ready This Week.
At the regular semi-weekly confer
ence with the Washington correspond
ents today the president was asked
for an explanation of some of the
principles Of currency reform, but said
that inasmuch as the bill and his own
message would be made public within
a week he would refrain from COM
ment. Ine president was undecided as
to whether his message would be pre-
scented to congress in advance OF the
currency bill or whether both would
be made public about the same time.
The impression prevailed, however,
that the bill will be introduced in both
houses by Wednesday or Thursday of
his week and that the president will
pronounce his views to congress about
June %.
The president did declare. however.
today hat there were no essential
variations among the leading demo-
Gratis with whom he had consulted con-
corning currency reform. AS to the
intimation from the capitol that cur
renGy legislation was not desired at
his session, the president declared mo
such information a been conveyed
to him. His impression was that the
need OF currency legislation was recog-
nized but that the only objection
raised against its enactment at the ex-
ira session was the approaching hot
season.
