"THE BEGINNING OF THE END

On Saturday night, September s, it became crime
against the peace and dignity of the United States to
manufacture distilled spirits for beverage purposes in
any part of the United States and the president is given
the authority to commander all distilled spirits in bond
and prohibit the of fcodstuffs the manufacture
of beer and wine whenever he shall deem it necessary.
Of this legislation will not have any imme-
diae effect upon the amount Of ntoxcants sold or used
the dstileres have been running to capacity limits
and have sufficient stock hand to meet the demand for
three years; but the saving of foodstus by this
prohibition of dstlaon will probably be between three
and four billion pounds There would be equal saving
by the prohbtio of the of foodstus in the manufac
ture of wine and beer
The responsibility for this latter waste has now been
placed squarey upon the presidents shoulders and he
must decide whether the socaled benefits from the use
of beer and wine equal the waste of both foodsus and
manpower physical intellectual and moral, caused by
the manufacture and use of beer and wine
The t-Saloon League of America believes that the
president should meet this grave responsibility by issuing
an order prohibiting the further of foodsus for the
manufacture of beer and wine and that prohibihonss
throughout the country should state to the president
promptly and positively their sentiments on this great
question and their earnest desire that the vital lmpor
tance of food conservation shall be emphasized by
sweeping order from the White House prohibiting the
further of foods the manufacture of lntoxicants
II is true that the Anti Saloon league legislative com
mttee acceded the request of the president that the
food bill should not be delayed by nslsenee upon the re
enton of the beer and wine provision but the committee
distinctly stated that it would continue to press for such
legislation The way to obtain it is by executive
order and all those church bodies and individuals who
petitioned congress should petition the president
But Notwithstanding the fact that have not OBJ
tanned all that we wanted must not minimize the great
fact that the dstato of ntoxicants for beverage pur
poses has been outawed by the Of the United
States Is not this the beginning of the end Many of US

CONSCIENCE PRlCKS
AT TER LONG YEARS

Notwithstanding the old legend that
landlords and real estate men have no
conscience, Louis Blacker. of Tween
tieth and Broad streets. comes forward
with a different story.
Several years ago he bought two
lots OF land in this city paying the
agent $4,000. He was Satisfied. oeliey-
ing he had made a good bargain. Sat-
urday he was astonished to receive
through the mails from the man from
when, he bought tho property h check
for $3.50. A letter explained that when
he sold the property several years ago
he had liked the price at but $500.
and after thinking 1t over for more
than two years he had reached the
conclusion that the difference should
be returned to the purchaser. Hence
the checA<. He would have returned
5000. but for the fact that tho real
estate agent had received $40 for his
work In transferring the property Mr..
Rlacker hAa. decided mol. to demand
percentage on the $3.50 for the time
between tho purchase and the return
Of tho money. -
