thinks that there is no better proof
that Congress fails to realize that the
war is an American war than the
spectacle of the Senate deliberating
over a bill to appropriate money for
rivers and creeks down which duck
can not float at some seasons of the
year" Mr.. Borah is one of those who
advocate greater publicity for the prin-
ciples which caused us to enter the
war, and a wider discussion of them
from the American standpoint. To
turn from serious war preparations
to the consideration of a river and
harbor bill is, to quote the Senator's
words, distinctly case in which the
city is wrapped in conflagration while
those in power continue to fiddle"

How can the people be expected to
take the food question so much to
heart as long as the breweries and dis
tilleries are permitted to buy all the
grain they want for the manufacture
of alcoholics? If there is to be a genu-
inc food shortage, should there be any
parleying over which is the real neces-
sity-bread or booze? People will
conserve their food more carefully
when conditions look sufficiently seri-
GUS for the government to stop the
sale of grain for the manufacture of
alcoholic beverages.
