The Philadelphia Catholic Standard
and Times speaks as follows concern
ing the terrible epidemic of Spanish
Influenza now ravaging that city:
Fastening to the aid of the munic-
1pal authorities, confronted with one
of the most serious emergencies in
the history of Philadelphia, and over
Whelmed with calls for help, the
Most Rev. Archbishop Dougherty, has
placed at the disposal of the Bureau
OF Health virtually every available
Diocesan resource in the fight to con-
troll and stamp out the influenza cpl
demic.
Thousands of Sisters of the various
uncloistered communities have been
granted permission to serve as nurses.
To every pastor permission has been
given to utilize church edifices, especi-
ally parish halls and parochial school
buildings, as hospitals. He further
more points out in an official COM
munication to every rector how the
st. Vincent de Paul Societies may be
used advantageously The members
of these Societies can help to nurse
patients and also open kitchens to
provide soup and other foods for the
sick.
When owing to the great number
of burials and the death of employees
in Holy Cross Cemetery, call for aid
was sounded, the Archbishop asked
for volunteers among the students of
ST. Charles Seminary, Overlook.
Instantly thirty seminarians signified
their willingness to perform the great
corporal work of mercy and bury the
dead. The young men will continue
the tasks, for which they gladly vol
unteered, as long as their services
are required.

BREWERS DELIVER
COUNTER ATTACK
ON PROHIBITION

NEW YORK, Jan. IA vigorous
counter attack against the prohibition
movement was delivered a. the annual
convention OF the New York state
Brewers Association. Jacob RUPERT,
president, delivered the principal ad-
dress.
Mr.. Rupert declared prohibition is
not now a proper question TO occupy
the attention of either the State or
nation. He continued:
AS a war measure i: has beer
. demonstrated to be impracticable, i'm
possible and undesirable. The ap-
propriate regulation of the manufsc-
tUre and sale of beer and Vine already
Is provided for by Fedora and State
legislation. No harm has or can come
10 our men abroad or tLs people at
home from the use OF wife and beer
az sanctioned by the law.
Allows Beer and Wine.
General Pershing allows beer and
light wines to the American soldiers
in Europe, and the reason assigned
for this by experts who know the
conditions in Europe is wines and
beers arc not intoxicating. but are
wholesome, heaIthfuI and :nyigorat-
ing.
The lessons derived from the En-
ropean situation demonstrate beyond
Eny doubt that absolute prohibition
is obnoxious and unthinkable and 4
species Of intolerance the people will
combat and resent the world over"
The quantity of grain going into,
beer, said Mr.. Rupert, amounts to
less than three-quarters OF ] per
cente Of the grain production of the
country. The principal ingredient, he
sdded, is barley, little used staple
crop.
S3.sS For a BuEheI.
lie declared the Government has
estimated the revenue from the sale
Of beer for the next fiscal year will
be $4,000, 600. This means, he Said,
the brewers are paying into the Coy
eminent treasury S3.9S for each
DHshel OF grain consumed in brewing
AR Rupert continued:
I'VE ask no favors. We are entitled
TO protection against quacks and
demagogues who play upon passions
and emotions TO obtain that which
reason and Justice would never grant.
We appeal for government by DELHI
Nration as against government by
stampede"

them to President Wilson outlining Il
plan for n uniform national policy OF

the President the necessity OF Federal
action in the matter OF such rates, elmer
to assume the power OF hNlns intrac''E
rates or 10 take over the roaus as has
been done with the steam railways. The
President is represented as being re-
| luctant TO add to the burden or the Gov
ernments activities, and for that reason
the national association has suggested

After an exhaustive discussion OF the
entire subject the letter, which bears
the date Of July 80, makes the follow

THE special war committee is OF the
| opinion that there is no provision or
! decision OF statute which can be con-
strued to empower the Federal Govern

where they are taken over and operated

and even IN ShCn CaStS inc lBIil VI ll'N

rates would he open TO question. But at
this time we are considering methods of
administration rather than questions OF
authority We feel that the national
emergency calls for action.
Therefore we respectfully advise
