A CHANCE FOR RETRENCH-
MENT.

The cry for economy in view Of
the pinch Of war is far-reaching.
Members of congress are echoing
it for the benefit of their consti-
tuents. Yet, like many a man who
fixes his gaze on a star only to
stumble over the gem in. his i'm
mediate path, these congressmen
are taking very little thought for
economy on a national scale such
as they alone can initiate. For
instance. there are many items of
governmental expenditures which
are now consuming money which
might well be done away with or at
least postponed until after the war.
Among these is the project for
making a physical valuation of
railroad properties. which is taking
millions of money from the Urea
sury and from the railroads and
the result of which will be of doubt
full value even if the work is COM
pleted on schedule time. This work
can we'll be put in allegiance for
the time being and the money de-

vote, has decided that the production

ture the society, so as to fulfill its Of
flee of defending the rights of writer's,

further gift-books are proposed. Mr..
Kpling's attitude is that, while he
himself holds no brief for charity gift
books, he declines to hand over to q
committee his own right as to what he
shall or shall not do with his own
work.-London Chronicle.

THE COUNTRY GONG DRY.

The passage by the House yester-
day Of the proposed constitutional
amendment for national prohibition
does not necessarily mean that alb
solute prohibition Of intoxicating bever-
ages for the United States is abso-
lEtely assured
Thirty-six state legislatures must
yet ratify this amendment.
1t is indeed problematical whether
this can be done, although the states
have six years in which to vote
through their general assemblies on
the question.
In the first place, there are not
thirty-six prohibition states. and even
some OF the states which are dry"
have, or will have different legislators
from those which enacted their re-
spective prohibition statutes.
However, the trend of the times is
for prohibition Besides. this govern
ment IS already virtually pledged to
prohibition, and before the war is
over will have experienced prohibition
is almost as complete form as the
most ardent temperance worker could
desire The manufacture of whiskey
is even now prescribed, no distinery
being allowed TO operate while the
war is in progress By the time peace
is declared the available supply Of
whiskey in the United States will prob
ably have been consumed As for
beer, the reduction of the permissible
percentage of alcohol to less than
three per cent, together with the re-
duction in the amount of grain that
may be used for breweries, is prac
tically equivalent to killing the brew
ing industry.
So before the thirty-six states win
