.9e IN0lgS 80
REAsoNs FoR RATlFYlNo.

Among seven reasons given by
Wayne b. Wheeler, counsel for the
Anti-SalOon league, why states should
ratify the prohibition amendment are
these:
A national evil requires 8 national
remedy. Our interstate relations and
the inherent, vicious character Of the
traffic make 1t a national evil. The al
cohOlic may drink liquor 10 one state
and commit crime or become a public
charge In another. The remedy must
be as far-reaching 90 the evil. State
boundaries are not adequate barriers
to moral contagion and no state, care
less In such matters, should be per-
mitted to dump its DRINKS and other
derelicts over the border line for a
neighborlng state to care for.
1t will result Ia team work between
the state and nation In dealing with
the liquor traffic. The dry states are
handicapped in their effort to enfoBce
prohibition as long as the federal gov
eminent continues to collect revenue
from, and recognizes the outIawed-traf.
fic in, such states. National prohibit
tiOn unites the state and federal gov
eminent in a common policy for the
public good.
The purposes of the federal govern
ment can be more easily consummated
under national prohibition. One Of tho
purposes of the federal
constitution is ito promote the general
welfare" The courts tell us this means
to protect public health and public
morals. The liquor traffic undermines
or destroys both. We cannot carry out
the fundamental purpose Of our gov
eminent if we foster, protect and en-
courage crime-producing business, like
the beverage liquor traffic.

| of fraadom To Lafayette France
owed its first declaration OF rights
drawn In the revolution. To MIN aisO
1t owed its tricolored flag the same
red white and blue as that which glor-
lies our own Stars and Stripes, under
which Major General Lafayette u .
A., fought for the existence OF q ma
ton of American freemen.
In the present struggle for the wrest-
Ing Of the world from the grip OF an
avid Attila Americans, British and
French are shoulder to shoulder at the
front. How our General Lafayette
would have enthused and gladdened at
the thought! The quarrel of the Amer
lean colonies, many historians show.
was not with the people of England but
with a Hanoverian king who acted
against the counsel Of the wisest states
men of British birth. The instructive
love Of fair play which is implanted in
the Englishman rebelled at the thought
of colonial taxation without represent
tation.
Lafayette's attitude to the English
was revealed when, while. visiting his
uncle, the Marquis de Noailles, then
ambassador to the Court of st. James.
he declined all Invitations to visit ar
senals and shipyards, believing that by
so doing he would be taking an unfair
advantage of nation which was to be
his foe through the stupidity Of rul-
er who could not and would not under
stand.
His home in Paris after the close OF
the war Of the revolution became a
place of rendezvous for both English
and Americans.
''Since the war is over and we have
won it." he wrote to General Wash
ington in 17S6, Il have, / confess, an
extreme pleasure in meeting English
people. Either as Frenchman, or a
soldier, or an American, or a mere in-
dividual I find myself without embar-
rassment in the presence of that proud
nation"
There could have been no gentler
acts Of courtesy than those which he
did when CORVALLIS had surrendered
at Yorktown, for he had the highest
opinion Of the British commander as
man. and. as he modestly wrote Coru-
wallis, 'held him In high esteem"
Long before there were hands
stretched across the sea between this
country and England, Lafayette, the
American general, was doing much 10
bgtng about a reunion Of the two ma
tons which are brothers Of one blood.

termination in his manner that Wash.
ington at once welcomed him to his
staff. AS soon as the opportunity Of
fered the leader Of the Continental
army put Lafayette in command of
large bodies of men and that judgment
was well justified.
The marquis was severely wounded
at Brandywine without being aware of
1t for time, so intense was his devo-
ton to duty. When he recovered he
renewed his activities at the right hand
OF General Washington, and lost no
opportunity to serve the nation which
was then coming into being. He was
with the great leader at Valley Forge,
where he conducted himself with such
sympathy and understanding that he
was soon as beloved by all the officers
as by the commander himself.
The portrait painters of the time put
the generals and colonies Of the day
in fine uniforms of blue and buff, but
very often some Of the ablest had only
nondescrlpt clothes, and some were
even ragged.
Washington once remarked to La
fayette that to one accustomed to being
with French troops the appearance of
the soldiers Of the colonies must indeed
have seemed unusual.
Il come not here to teach, but to
learn" was the reply of Lafayette.
Enlisted Aid OF France.
Part of the year 1910 was spent by
Lafayette in France, where he did so
much to get substantial aid from the
French government, which was then
In actual war with Great Britain.
That victory ultimately rested upon
the American standards was largely
due to those activities in Paris, for the
coming of the French feet was a de-
Gliding factor in the long and unequal
struggle for American independence.
Lafayette was received with affec-
ton and admiration by those who had
so bitterly opposed his going from
France, and he gained support even
from the powerful Noailles, father of
the Marquise. On Lafayettes return
to America Washington sent him In
1871 to operate against Benedict Ar
mold in Virginia. After CORVALLIS
came with $500 more men Washing
ton showed his confidence in the young
general by continuing him in the COM
mand. Lafayette was near Richmond
when CORVALLIS started for him.

English general. Lafayette promptly
retreated, made junction with 1000

WHAT NATIONWIDE PRoHlRI.
TON MEANS.

AASIN W@fAtNGa
From the noise that is made about it
among the vets, one might think pro-
hibition meant murder.
1t doesn't.
1t simply means more food, and that
means lower food prices.
1t means more efficient labor, and
that means greater output, and that
means lower prices again.
1t means that the men who are now
making beer and whisky will begin to
make the equivalent of what they con-
sumo, and that, again, means lower
prices for you.
1t means more car space for legiu-
mate commodities, and that means
faster handling of freight, and that
means lower prices.
1t means more ship tonnage to be
used In transporting material for our
boys in France and for our allies, and
that means not only lower prices for
our allies, but the lives Of American
boys saved for America.
Incidentally, it means less crime,
and that means less taxes. 1t means
less pauperism, and that means less
taxes. 1t means less insanity, and
that means less taxes. 1t means less
disease and death, and that means in
finite myriads Of things for the good
old U. s. Aboard of Temperance,

AvlATORS DOWNED
S45 ENEMY PLANES
When Armisdce Was Declar-

Squadrons On West Front

Washington, Dec. 23.--American av.
iators downed 845 enemy planes during
the war, of which 491 were confirmed
and 354 were not, according to infor.
nation reaching the war department
today. Major General Harboard in a
cable to the director Of the air service
thus summarized the work Of the Unit
ed Sites flyers and the scope of the
operations of the air service.
On the day the armistice ,~., e. Slsso
80 American aero squadrons were in
operation on the west front.
Compared with the enemy 5 loss 27l
American planes were brought down.
Casualties suffered by the service to-
tailed 442; of these 100 were killed,
103 wounded, 200 missing, 27 prisoners
and three interned. This was consider
ed low in view Of the fact that there
were 24,512 men of the service on thu
actual front. The total air strength in
France was $4,000, including those bri.
gaded with the French, English ard Ital
ians
The report shows that 6,472 planes
were received by the A. f. f., from
September 1917 to November 1918.
Eight different schools of instruction
we're established in France, designed
to train $500 officers and IL, 200 men.
