YANKEE ARMY FREE
OF DRUNKENNESS

A tour over the entire European
battle front without seeing a single
American soldier under the influence
of liquor has just been completed by
Representative Charles H. Randall OF
California, the Prohibitionist mem
Der of the House. Mr.. Randall re-
turned to Washington yesterday aft
er an absence of six weeks.
II have seen hundreds of thousands
of our boys in France. England and
Italy, as well as the soldiers Of other
nations" he said. "ani no soldier
in this war has the manly and in
teIligent appearance that our boys
have. Not a siagle American soldier
in all the trip did l see under the
influence OF liquor. and the conduct
Of every soldier was such as to make
our country proud Of him."
General Pershing realized the diff
ficulties thrown around our men and
established such safeguards as could
reasonably be enforced" he said. Il
am bound to say, however, that many
thousands OF our soldiers will come
home with acquired wine and beer
drinking habits, and the surety that
national prohibition will be in effect
before they come back Is one thing
fof which we should be deVoutly
thankful"

HATE FOR AMERICA.

An insight into the character OF
Prince Max OF Baden. the new I'M

when called to the presidency OF the
great Duehy OF Baden-e right he as
sumed BY his birth-on December IA,
1917. and says:
He accused France Of intending 10
precipitate the war, and charged Lore
Grey with having done hotning 70

Russian the worst lies uttered by his
predecessors, Michaelis and Won Hert-
ling, by saying il was Russia tn2t
brought on the great catastrophe.
But II IL especially when ne AT
tackled the United States and Presloent
Wilson that Prince Max gave way 20
his violent temper and Inclined 10
