Brewers Before Senate

Washington. May "A dele gation representing the brewers of the United States was heard today by the Senate agriculture committee on Senator Gronna's bill to forbid the manufacture of grain into alcoholic liquors dur. ing the war.
 The delegation told the com mittee that the brewing inter ests were ready to cooperate with the government in any way and did not ask consideration from any standpoint other than of fair dealing and public policy.
 The actual amount of grain used in brewing, principally bar lev, they say, represents less than three quarters of one per cent of all the grain produced in the United States, and In addi- tion, the barley used, they said, | is not a staple human food.

The Cause Of
the var.

1t is perhaps important that
that the reason why we are at
war with Germany should be
restated az often as possible,
There are some noisy agitators
and disloyal writer's in this
country who have persistently
endeavored to confuse the issue
and to carry on seditious and
subtle propaganda for the pur.
pose of producing discomfort
among the people and of giving
aid and encouragement to the
enemies Of the United States.
A large part Of this propaganda
was ,undou btedly financed by
the German Government direct

propaganda has probably been

stoff, tie adroit and malevolent
German ambassador, before
he was dis missed. With that
money and with money provided
by German sympathizers and
certain disloyal elements in the
United States the propaganda
has continued, but in a modified
form. 1t would be difficult tol
ascertain exactly how much |
money has been expended for
lnlS purpose, out some OF the |
recent disclosures by the State
Department indicate how active
we're Germany's cwn represen'
tatives while in this country. It
is we'll for the American people
to realize the hypocrisy and
disloyalty Of all these efforts,
and to determ inc to stamp them

the Nation must at no time be
imperiled more by the traitors
within Our walls than by the
enemies without. -
