SALOON LICENSE
MAY Be AMENDED
City Commission Considers AL
lowing Hotels to Take Sup
Elemental Permits.

City commissioners have under con-
sideration an amendment to the saloon
license ordinance, which, if passed
will provide for the issuance of a sup
Elemental service bar license, similar
to the cafe license issued in Rock Is
land to bars in hotels. No definite
action has as yet been taken by the
commissioners. Only hotels having
bars and at least AS rooms will be al
lowed to take out the supplemental
license, and suggestion has been made
that the fee for this special privilege
be $500 per year in addition to the
regular $1,000 saloon license.
The hotel proprietors who suggest
the supplemental license ask that
they be allowed to sell from 6 to II
O'Clock at night from this service bar,
which would be created when they
take out the special license. The reg
ular closing hour of the bar, II o'clock,
would, however, remain the same.
Under the present saloon license in
this city liquor may be sold in but
one room, that in which the bar is To-
Gated. 1t cannot be taken into the
cafe of the hotel or TO the rooms. Tt I.
new amendment, if passed, will legally
allow the sale of the liquor so that it
may be taken to the rooms or into
the cafe

the cargo that is offered them for Lat
IN America. This condition may not
last and therefore it may be highly ad
visable for the United States govern
ment and its commercial interests to
do everything they can TO improve
shipping facilities, especially with yes
sells flying the American flag, but at
this hour there need be no serious
trouble in finding ships to carry your
exports to Latin America.
II will now give you two remarkab bic
facts to prove to you the value of this
field despite the difficulties of the fl
nancial situation. The 20 countries OF
Latin America in the last year that
ended just before the war began,
bought and sold products in foreign
commerce valued at the immense total
of nearly 50, 900, 00O,0 OF this nearly
81. 900, 900, 900 was with Europe and
this trade in turn was almost entirely
with the countries which are engaged
in war. II therefore stands to reason
that the United States must take care
of a large part of this European com
merce. If II does not, Latin American
will not be supplied with the absolute
ly necessary manufactured products
which 1t requires and it will also lack
a market for a great portion of its
raw products.
Another fact to convince the most
skeptical of the value of the opportuni-
ty is that the United States in the
year before the war bought and sold
products with Latin America valued
at the large total of nearly SS50.000,-
900 and this in turn represents an in
crease of fully 100 per cent during the
last 10 years. IL is a mistake, there
fore, for you TO assume that the United
States has not been doing a big trade
in Latin America. The truth is that
the United States has increased its
trade with Latin America more rap
idly during the last five years than
has any European country. Although
Europe conducts a larger commerce
than the United States with the 10
countries of South America proper the
United States leads in the trade with
the 10 countries of Latin America in
the North American section, or in
those lands bordering upon the Gulf
of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea.
Again, although Europe as a whole ma
turally did a greater trade in Latin
America in normal times than did the
United States, 1t is, on the other hand,
an interesting fact that taking Latin
America as a whole the United States
conducted a larger exchange of pro-
ducts with 1t than did any individual
country in Europe like England, Ger
many. or France"

JUST PUNISHMENT
Believes God Created Strife in

PROPHESIES ANOTHER ONE
Rockford Divine Says That Last Con-
flict Before Universal Peace Will
Be Religious One.

Rev. Eric Carlson of Rockford
speaking before the members of the
Swedish Baptist church yesterday af
ternoon, declared that he believed
God has sent the wor in Europe as a
punishment 10 the nations who have
disregarded His teachings.
The nations at war are reapinS
only what they have sown," he con-
tinued. Russia for its oppression OF
the Jews; France for the neglect OF
God; Belgium for its atrocities in
Congo Free State some years ago;
England for its attempe to force the
opium traffic in China; and Germany
for the remuneration of the bible. The
rationalism and higher criticism of the
German universities has swept
through the scriptures, leaving moth
ing but the cover of the book, ana
its baneful influence has been trans
ferred to this country.
Predicts Religious Conflict.
Regarded in the light of the scrip
lures this war is not the last before
worldwide peace ensues. The last
will be n religious conflict.
Chief among the lessons of the
war is that civilization and culture
without Christ is unable to bring
worldwide peace. There is a lesson
to America in this struggle, for it
presages what may happen here (
this country becomes guilty of the
same national sins that have brought
the penalty of war upon Europe.
The war is also providing another
outlet for American charity. The
need of Europe is Americas opportun-
ity TO act the part of the brothers
keeper"
Rev. Mr.. Carlson also addressed the
school rally yesterday after
noon, 400 young people being in at
tendance. Revival meetings are be-

dence and even conviction that this
tri-city and other industrial centers
along the Mississippi river have a par
ticular reason to be vitality concerned
in the development Of the Pan-Ameri-
can field of commerce. The second is
that you have given me such cordial
welcome and good time when l have
been here before that I simply could
not refuse to come again.
1T is impossible to impress upon
you too strongly the Importance OF the
present day relations of the United
States with Latin-America. The Pan
American situation is one that vital
" concerns the welfare, progress and
prosperity OF every Industrial center
OF this country. Pan-America, in its
