CRITICISM, QUITS

Nine. Johanna Gadski, the prima
donna soprano Of the Metropolitan
Opera Company, announced recently
her decision to withdraw, fer a time
at least. from opera in New York and
from the stage en- which she has spent
the greater portion OF her career In
a communication addressed to the
American public she gave her rel
sons Tor the step. AS a leading Ger
man star she has in some qrarters
encountered personal criticism grow,

try and her own Fatherland. Her
statement reads:
Il feel the time has arrived when I
must defend myself once and for all
in the campaign which was begun
against me after an alleged interview
in 1916.
AT that time l thought it beneath
my dignity to make a denial-and
was unfortunately advised to remain
silent. Lately, how ever, | have been
again too outrageously and unjustiy
attacked so that l feel compelled IN
justice to myself and my many friends
to contradict these falsehoods AMI
CalumnieS.
Il herewith emrhatically deny to

thing against this country, or any OF
its representatives.
MY career was practically started
and made in the United States. and
who knows better than | what | owe
to this my second lone? | feel that
under the prevailing conditions ii is
perhaps better to withdraw for the
present from the Metropolitan stage
and ask the publle to accept this
statement from me as final and to
resent any more comments about ME
personally, as such might lead to
further misrepresentation.
Hoping with all my heart that the
numerous friends whom l think | have
made in these many years of earnest
work will continue to believe in me
and will remain my loyal friends, as
remain theirs, with sincere graft
tude.-Johanna Gadski."
The prima donna was born at An
clam, Prussia, in 1871, and educated
at Stettin. In 1892 she married Cap
tain Hans Tauscher, who was fof
years a representative of German
munition mixers here, most recently
agents for the Krupps, and who was
acquitted by the courts in the Well
and Canal case.

Prohibition In War Time
BY DR.. FRANK CRANE
Copyright. 1915. by Frank Crane)

The effort TO secure prohibition for
war time has been muddled most master
ly by its friends and opposed most
shamefully by its enemies.
1t is not moral issue" at all. BY
making il SO its friends have aroused
all the old pack of vicious dogs who re-
gard any attempt to improve the health
or conduct of citizens - pious fanat-
cism and intolerance.
The issue is an economic one. 1t
means efficiency. health. money, re-
sources.
1t may also eventually make us an
more pious. but that's not why we want
prohibition
Pushing il rs moral" issue calls
10 life all those flag ends of fustian
about personal liberty" and "sumptu-
airy legislation" that were worn TO
shreds thirty years ago.
There are ten men for prohibition to-
day where there was one ten years ago
simply because war clarifies the issue,
and it is seen that there are really only
gence, the other greed
On the other hand. war time intensi-
ties |tery reason for prohibition
LIr. Alonzo Taylor Of the Department
of Agriculture states that the grain used
in the manufacture of intoxicants would
enable US 10 send pound loaf of bread
a day TO each of 100000 men ut the
front. >gT
We are securing heaven and earth TO
raise men to join the army: yet this
business Of booze, which is pure waste,
employs some 289,00O wage-earners
who might be helping along.
The revenue from liquor is estimated
at s484000,O0O This is the main plea
Of the beer and whisky hosts. Yet Rus
sif4, England and Canada have shown u.s.
partially at least. how the savings of
restricted liquor consumption more than
make up for the loss in direct revenue.
Professor Thomas S. Adams of Yale, an
authority on taxation, shows how, by
proper taxing. all revenues lost by pro-
hibition could be restored. not counting
the additions TO the national dividend
from added efficiency.

and not cranks and fanatics, declares
strongly for prohibition in war time lin

ntoxicants would be of enormous value
20 our allies.
(2) Scientific evidence shows that
even moderate drinking, in its total
effect on masses of men, lowers bodily
efficiency and impairs the power to re-
sist disease.
(3) The alleged food value" of alco-
holic beverages is joke. A drug COM
pound that exerts a poisonous effect on
the body cannot be classed as food
Let us think clearly on this Drink
Question.
America needs every ounce of her in
telligence. efficiency and unselfish devo-
ton. And while mothers are giving up
their frst-born, and wives their hus-
bands, and young men their career and
prospects, and all of us trying to smile
while we are asked TO sacrifice the dear

no time to listen to the lewd and berry
