GRAIN WASTED IN
MAKING BOOZE IS
NEEDED IN BREAD
Ex-Governor Hanly Declares
Liquor Traffic Borders
on Treason

While striking blow after blow at
the booze industry. the rum dis
pensers were severely arraigned and
their action characterized as treason
by Ex-Governor Frank ]. Hanly. of
Indiana. for he said, what is it but
giving aid and comfort to the
enemy as treason is defined in the
Federal Constitution. when the traf-
fic uses enough food grain to make
II, 100000 loaves of bread a day."
Hanly, a former candidate for
President of the United States. de-
livered his address last evening un-
der the auspices of the Flying
Squadron Foundation for national
prohibition, in the Stevens Memorial
Methodist Church.
Little incidents of what the booze
trade is doing to cause discomfort
to the people of America were re-
lated by the speaker. Commenting
on the fuel shortage of last winter
he said the condition would have
been alleviated had not the miners
lost so much of their time because
of regular debauches. In one Penn
sylvania ming town he told OF
how but one-half of the employees
appeared for work each Monday.
The traffic likewise plays big part
in the freight and railroad conges-
ton of the present time, he said,
for cars to the extent of 1,0S0, 900 are
used annually to transport the raw
and finished product.
The liquor trade lis one institution
in this broad land of ours, which
has ignored all calls for conserva-
ton. 1t demands 10, 100000 bushels
of grain food annually for its manu-
facture and costs the nation $780,
100000 annually in money and in
addition to the countless amount of
Woe" he affirmed.
Tracing the difference between
the autocratic government of Ger
many and the democratic govern
ments of the allied countries at the
start of his lecture, he foretold that
when this war ends, God helping
us, there'll be an end to king power
and autocracy."

CROWDER PLANS
TO PUT 100000
MORE IN CLASS !
Wires Governors to Probe
Small Registrations in
Top Rank
By Associated Press

Dy ISSoctteu TTCSS
Washington, June IA general re-
vision of classifications under the Sc
lective service act was started to-
day by Provost Acknowledgement
Crowder. when he telegraphed to the
Governors of all the states ordering
Investigations to determine the rea-
son for the small number of regis
trants in Glass l in some localities.
The lists of some boards show an
average far below the national aver
age of 2S.7 per cent registrants
Glass 1. Some boards even have
fallen as low as ten per cent.
Thousands of men in Glass
should be put in Glasses 1 and 2. the
Provost Marshal said. The instruc-
tions also ordered Investigations to
determine If any men have been err
roneously put in the upper classes
when they should have been placed
in those lower down.
1t is expected that the rearrange-
ment will bring into Class 1 more
than 100000 men.
Cases where registrants were mar
rfed after passage of the draft act
will be carefully considered, and, ii
evidence warrants classification in
Glass 1. boards will proceed to re-
classify them. Married men whose
wives have sustaining incomes prob
ably will be reclaSsified.
General Crowder announced to-day
that the class of 1918 registrants will
not be allowed to enlist in the Navy
or Marine Corps and that no volun-
tary inductions will be granted until
order and serial numbers have beer
assigned. After assigned, registrants
may enlist If they obtain certificates

trees of Belleau wood, but the
marines pushed their way through it.
Towns Are Fired
out in the open field artillery of
hcers with glasses were directing the
supporting fire, while on the roof of
a nearby farm house a signal man
wig-wagged with his red and white
flag. On all sides the guns were flash
ing, some of them stationed right out
In the field, while others were hidden
in the woods. Looking down into the
valley, only a mile away, the village
of Bussaires could be seen on fire. As
the correspondent watched the scene,
the clouds of white shrapnel smoke
over the village of Torcy also became
brownish and flames appeared in that
town.
The artillery fire that preceded the
attack lasted an hour and was of es-
pecial intensity for five minutes
preceding the time when the marines
went over the top. French and Amer
lean batteries both took part in the
firing, putting down a rolling bar
rage and then shifting to the roads
behind the German lines.
Forestalled Hun Attack
1t appears that the marines in go
ing in forestalled an attack that the
Germans had planned. 1t was to
have been carried out by the Prus-
slams who had been put into the line
for that purpose, and was to have
taken place either to-day or to-mor-
row. These men had relieved the
Prussian guard division which was
literally chewed up in the fighting of
| the last day or two.
The morale of the men is wonder
| ful. They are willing to attempt any
thing and are talking with pride of
the heavy losses they inflicted upon
the Germans in their attack this
morning, while all the early reports
Indicated that the afternoon attack
had been. even more costly to the
enemy.
,',' Men Ask For No Rest
This latter attack was undertaken
largely because of the splendind show
ing the marines made in the morn
ing, coupled with the discovery that
the morale of the Germans in the op-
posite position was low, which made
the going easier for the fiery soldiers
of the marine corps. The advance
was carried out by the same men
who attacked in the morning and
who had had no rest. They asked
nothing, however, but plenty of am
munition and hardly ate the food
that was brought up to them SO abb
sorbed were they in the task of chas-
| ing the enemy as far as possible.
No one who saw the marines in ac-
ton to-day did not thoroughly agree
with the exclamation of their com

New York.-Food conditions in

REP. BYRD DENIES STATEMENT

Representative w. ID. Byrd was in

mere was shown the statement appear
ing in The Columbia Record ~everal
days ago in which he was credited
with saying that he voted against a
certain bill because local people had
sent kilograms to the speaker Of the
House advocating the masure. The
measure under discussion was the bill
to ratify the amendment oC the federal
constitution for nationwide prohibi-
ton, MIR. Byrd denied making any such
assertion, saying that he was misuuot-
cd and placed in a false light.
The item, as it appeared in The Rec
ord, was as follows:
Representative w. ID. Byrd of Lau
rcns announced on the floor Of the
house Thursday night that he was go
ing to vote against measure under
consideration because large number
Of kilograms had been sent from his
county asking that the measure be
passed. He said that he had been
doubtful how he would vote but that
after hearing these messages read to
the house he had determined to vote
contrary to the urging Of the people
sending them"
In regard. to the article Mr. Byrd
made the following statements
''rhc statement as appearing in The
Columbia Record Thursday afternoon
incorrectly quotes my remarks in re-
gard TO the measure, which was on the
ratification Of the prohibition amend
mcnt to the federal constitution. What
| did say was that | was open to Con-
viciion and still had my convictions
and expected to vote against tho rati-
iicatiOn regardless Of the many mes
saGcs from Laurcns county in favor
OF it. The kilograms had no innu-
cncc on my vote Whatsoever"
Mr. Byrd voted against the resolu-
tion and the rest Of the delegation vot-
cd for it. Mr.. Byrd states that he op-
posed the ratification Of the amQnd-
mont as he considers the amendment
an invasion Of states rights.
