The Right to Get Drunk

The Right to Get Drunk
Some weeks ago, there was much comment in Ameri-
papers utterance of J. Keir Hardie, member
of the British Parliament, regarding the right of
to get drunk Some If the comment severely criticized
Mr. Harde, but knowing his long record in behalf of
temperance measures American Issue preferred to get
his views before making reference to the matter.
In response to an inquiry from member of the
Issue staff, Mr.. Hardie replied:

In brief, Mr.. Hardie stands for total abstinence of

right of indvidua-even engine drver-to get

American Issue is ready to go the limit with any

Mr.. Taft and the Constitution

DR.. Johnson said that patriotism is the last refuge
of scoundrel'
Just so, the "Constitution" has been invoked to
shelter every species of rascay and crinality since
the days of piracy.
Slavery hid its loathsome form under the "Consti-
tuition"
So did the food prisoners So did the lottery
sharks So did the white slave trafhckers and so do
the blind pig keepers.
The blind pig interests shout that Congress
alone has the sole power to regulate interstate
merce and when Congress seeks to exercise this
power the blind pig say that it is "unconstitu-
tonal.'
Every solitary lawyer in Washington who has de-
clared the Webb bill Unconstitutional is man who
is always the whisky side of every proposition that
shows its head in Congress.
The men who stand for progressive measures, and
they are in the tremendous majority, have doubt
whatever about the constitutionality of the bill.
It is not worth while to roast the PRESIDENT it is
useless speak i'll of the dead Mr. Taft has classified
and tagged himself. He will be known in history as
the only president of the United States who used
his power in the interest of lawbreakers and GRIM
inals. BY this act he voluntarily classified himself
with the late President Castro of Venezuela.
What singing rebuke Congress administered in
overriding the presidents veto within twenysx hours
after it's receipt and without waiting scarcely read
his message transmitting it.
The bill passed the senate the veto within two
hours after it's arrival from the White House.
This is the first time that Congress has passed a
the presidents veto since 1882, when that
body passed the Chinese exclusion bill the of
President Arthur.

tions in Crete for the University of
Pennsylvania have brought to light
fragments of an ancient civilization
which shows that women of the is
land wore corsets and hobble-skirts
5000 years ago is interesting as a
matter of archaeology but 1t Is moth
ing new. In fact, it has been devel-
oped long since that even in the clas-
sic times of Greece the graceful gar
ment shown in statuary and painting
was a conventionality of art rather
than a fashion of the time. Woman.
it seems, has ever delighted in styles
that change with the seasons and with
the years, but return again in cycles
that appear to have had no beginning
and to approach no end. She and her
clothing are the joint symbols Of the
truth that nothing is so immutable as
mutability.
1t Is questionable, however. whether
the women of the youth of the world
ever subordinated their own tastes to
the whims and absurdities of foreign
fashion makers. Was 1t ever the vogue
In Crete to wear the styles of Baby
lon or of Thebes? AS some bold
hearts are striving in this country to
develop an American fashion opposed
to that of Paris, that is the question
American archaeologists should strive
to solve. Conceding that Cretan ruins
bear witness to the durability of the
corset, may they not also give encour-
agement to the hope that 1t was not
always worn as a straight front?
