Secretary Bryan on Drink and War

Speaking of the recent order OF the Russian gov
eminent forbdding vodka in the Russian army, Secre
tary of State William J Bryan has this to say in the
July number Of his paper, The Commoner:
If the soldier give up alcohol because it nterferes
with his efficiency why should the civilian promote his eff
cheney by giving up And if it demonstrated that alcohol
evil and only evil; if it proven that lessons the
productive value of the citizen who will say that the nation
should look upon this great evil with Indifference merely be-
cause few people want to rich out of drink that de-
srucve? Why should condemn opium, morphine and
caine if to worship the shrine of whisky and beer?
"Cumberland punch is the prevailing ntoxicant
in Tennessee just now. Cumberland punch" is pro-
duced by the state. The process involves the dump
ing of conhscated liquors into the Cumberland river.
Two wagon loads went in the other day to the sore
discontinue of the fish.

A luxuriously fitted opium den raired at 81
West 35th street the other day. Oh, yes; forgot
to the city. 1t not the Prohibition city of
Atlanta, but the license city of New York Drugs
and alcohol go hand in hand.

On every hand in Kansas may the blight
ing effects of Prohibition. Actually, of the
people have to put up with little 4-cyinder Ford.
If there saloons every corner of course
everybody would have automobile. There
only $4,000 motor in Kansas this year.

The Ohio correspondent to Midas Criterion de-
clares that breers in that state ARE supplying boot
leggers with beer by the key, by the case, and in
wagon-load lots" Since Ohio is wet state there
bootleggers in it, and everybody knows the
good brewers would not cooperate with them if they
there, why should Midas publish nonsense?

INCREASE NOT UNIFORM
Although Roads Are Apparently hp-

Witness Tells Commission, Increase
Will Favor Standard Company.

Washington, Jan. 26.-Charges that
the proposed freight increases on pc
troleum, which eastern railroads are
requesting, would discriminate heavi.
ly against Independent refneries in
favor of Standard Oil, were made be-
for the interstate commerce commits
sion by F. w Boltz, traffic man ~er
of the National Petroleum As d.
tion, an organization of forty con-
panies.
Boltz asserted that although the
reads were apparently applying for a
uniform five per cent increase on pc
troleum, their tariffs showed that the
increase would not be uniform, but
would vary from two to nineteen per
cent. He said that wherever Stan
dard Oil was involved, the rate
changes favored that company.
