LOSING HIS RESPECT

Judge Richard c. Flanagan, OF Nor

Joe Lincoln OF Cape Cod A few years
ago he found prototype OF Lincoln's
"Mr. Pratt" in the proprietor Of the
Elk Hotel at Ontonagon, who actually
bore the name Pratt and had even the
whiskers and speech OF Lincoln's
character.
Judge Flanagan found Mr.. Pratt
very entertaining and the latter held
the Judge somewhat In awe.
1t was during a very important MUIR
der trial in ontonagon and Mr.. Pratt
was deeply concerned in the judges
charge to the jury. He was present
when Judge Flanagan delivered his
instructions, which he read at great
length. And that settled him with Mr..
Pratt.

Prosecuting Attorney Waffen, OF
this county, has asked the attorney
generals department whether IL is a
violation OF the Pray liquor law for a
proprietor OF a hotel TO store liquor In
a basement room OF his building that is
kept securely locked and whether the
law is being violated when the pro-
.prietor has intoxicants In his bed
room.
The states legal adviser says that
he thinks that In the instance in
which liquor Is found stored in the
room in the basement OF the hotel the
fact OF such storing constitutes an Of
Tense.
II infer that the basement OF the
hotel is not used as residence and
that part thereof at least Is open to

that II there is no testimony to show

has repeatedly said there should be no
simultaneous upheaval or schedules,
that any revision should be Individual

and then only when IL has been demon
strated that such revision is neces-
sary. The argument : was advanced
when protective tariff was in exis-
ence. or course. as there was whole

able collective readjustment should be
made as basis for future individual

II does not need seer to point out
the fact that due TO the war, this coun-
try is face to face with situation for
which there is no precedent. One OF
the most important phases or IL is the
necessity OF making preparations to
meet the great industrial changes that
will follow the war in Europe. As Mr.
Ripley says, as long as war orders
pour in and there is money with which
to pay for them, ther will be added
prosperity, but when the war closes
and the millions OF men now under
