Won / leave Amy Doubt.

The Americas Times Recorder has
decided to apply the "thunders Of
silence" to the Georgian who has
detained his state dishonored his con-
st'suents and diagraced himself. Never
again, until he has been retired from
public office will the Americas paper
directly mention his name. The read
ing of Irwin Cohb's article has con-
vinced us that such step as The
Times Recorder has determined upon
is ;he wise and patriotic thing to do
So The Tribune takes this opportuni-
ty Of announcing that it will never
directly mention the name of the
,reasley 2x4 now at Washington I'M
less it is absolutely necessary for us
to do so. However. when writing Of
tie thing we will endeavor to leave
you in no doubt as to what we are

NOTHING TO KICK ABOUT.

When We read about the institution
CT card rationing system in England,
which limits the individual to very
small quantities of the principal food
commodities, we should be thankful
for the plenty that is available to us
here in the United States.
There is really a limitation on only
two articles of diet, sugar and flour,
and yet any person can get enough of
either to suffice for all necessary pur-
poses.
The food administration is making
an effort to hold the per capita con-
sumption of -four to less than five
pounds per month, and is succeeding
The plan is also to encourage the use
of other cereals, which are just as
healthy as wheat and just as palat-
able. In the end, the menu for
Americans will have become so diver
sifed that after the war -four will
no longer be regarded as the prime
essential for bread-making. Already
there are thousands who swear by
corn mullins and really prefer them to
wheat biscuit.
The restrictions on meat eating
have been substantially lifted, only one
day with meatless meals now being
required. Heretofore meatless meal
each day, meatless Tuesday, and
porkless Saturday was the rule. Now
only meatless Tuesday is exacted,
and to give up meat on just one day in
the week is really no sacrifice at all.
So far as their eating is concerned,
the people of this country hardly
know that the United States is at war.

Georgia and the National Prohibition
Amendment.


The Albany Herald says:
The Americas Times-Recorder is
convinced that there is a movement
or foot in the state to bring about
defeat of the resolution ratifying the
national prohibition amendment when
the matter comes before the Georgia
legislature.
There is little likelihood that those
opposed to national prohibition will
be able to influence the Georgia legis-
lature's action in this matter. Senti-
ment is the state is overwhelmingly
favorable to ratification of the national
prohibition amendment.
A great many more voters favor
statutory prohibition than favor pro-
hibition as a moral issue. The rea-
son is not far to seek and is of course
clearly understood by nearly every
badly. Georgia is now a prohibition
state. The la wforbididng the manu-
facture, sale or keeping on hand of
intoxicants is absolutely "rock ribbed"
/ There is in it not single loop-hole
whereby man in Georgia can get his
liquor through lawful process. Never
/ theless, there flows into the state from
, the abodes of wetness in Florida and
/ elsewhere an endless stream of al
coholic beverages. Nobody knows
just how much, measured in gallons
and quarts, these illegal importa-
lions amount to, but it is undoubted-
ly sufficient to make the business OF
blind-tigering in Georgia one that is
rapidly piling up fortunes for those
engaged in it,
And this is the reason why thou
sands of Georgians who were not pro-
hibitionists originally are in favor
OF national prohibition now. They
may not have changed their opinion
that man should be his own master
and the custodian of his own morals,
but they smart under a sense of out
ragged citizenship when they realize
that there has been ubilt up an ex-
tensive organization whose sole pur-
pose is to get rich quick by setting at
naught law that represents the SOW
ereign will of the people.
Georgia's own prohibition law is be-
ing defed outrageously and success
fully. National prohibition will prob
ably prove more effective. At least,
the hope that it will earns support for
the proposed amendment to the federal
constitution.

1t is we'll known fact that the
most severe critics of the public
schools and the churches are the peo-
pie who have never taken the trouble
to enter the doors of the institutions
that they critieise They stand out
side and bark instead of entering and
learning for themselves the truth
about the matter. 1t is far easier to set
up a hue and cry than to make a
thorough investigation.
