There is a vast amount of sO-called

Christianity which makes men rever-

facing, devoted to spiritual values and
divine ends.
True, there is a great amount Of
charity and philanthropy There is
growing interest in social problems,
but, considering the number Of Chris
tians, so-called. It Is small.
There is no power In much OF the
Christianity OF today to stem the tide
Of materialism and hedonism. There
is no power in IL TO correct mems

sir:-The decision OF the United
States Supreme Court, upholding the
webb-Kenyon law, cuts the founda-
ton from under those who have been
demanding nationwide prohibition as
the only means for making State
wdie prohibition prohibit. It has
been claimed for years that the pro-
hlbition laws OF Maine and Kansas.
and other prohibition States, have
been nullified by Interstate ship
ments under protection OF the Fed
eral laws controlling Interstate
commerce.
But now that the webb-Kenyon law
has been sustained. il will be possi-
BILE for any state to be Just as dry
as 10 may desire. Each State has the
power now to cut off every shipment
OF. liquor OF every kind. and to pro-
hibit the bringing In OF liquor, even
as personal baggage
The desire TO meddle with the az
fairs of others will undoubtedly ac
tuate the temperance element in de
manding more and more prohibitions
but It seems to me that all reason
able persons, will agree that Arizon
and Idaho, and other States havinl
, drastic anti-shipping laws. enforce
