TEN ARE DROWNED
WHEN SHIP UPSETS
Wave Crashes Lake Vessel Against
Pier at MuskegOn, Mich, Early
This Morning.

Muskegon, Mich, October 2S.-Ten
persons were reported drowned today
when the lake steamer City of Mus
kegon was blown into a pier one mile
off shore and partially wrecked. Sew
en- bodies were recovered.
The vessel went down at 1880 a. m.
Wallowing along in a heavy sea, the
old boat attempted to pass in between
the two piers extending one mile out
into the lake.
A great wave caught her at the en-
trance to the passage and dashed her
broadside against the south pier Tim
bers were smashed to splinters. Pas
sengers poured to the upper decks and
were transferred to the slippery pier
by Captain Edward Miller and mem
bers of the crew.
Another wave swept the boat back
from the pier and she sank in 10
minutes. In the darkness and con-
fusion a count of passengers was at
tempted. Twenty were unaccounted
for, but one of these was believed to
have climbed back to the pier after be-
ing thrown into the water when the
boat was washed away from the struc-
ture.

ADOPTION OF DRY AMEND.
MENT IS NECESSARY
Says Mason County Dry Lenders In
Regard to State Constitutional
Amendment.

The Mason County Dry Committee
issues the following statement:
One of the amendments to the Con-
stitution to be voted on next Tuesday
gives to the Legislative power to make
new law for removing unworthy and
inefficient men from office. AS the Con-
sttution now stands the only way to
remove a man from office is by the
courts. If this amendment is adopted
the legislation can and will make
law by which the people by vote can
recall a man, that is, vote him out as
we'll as vote him in. Many states
have this law, and use 1t to get rid of
worthless officers:
Some persons think that because we
have an amendment to the Constitu-
ton of the United States we do not
need an amendment to the Constitu-
ton of Kentucky. This is a mistaken
view We need this amendment so
that our legislature may make laws to
enforce prohibition. Much ENFORCE
ment legislation will be needed to
make prohibition effective. We all
know that many people are ready to
sell their honor in order to sell liq-
uor and every means possible must be
employed to hinder them. This amend
ment is on the regular ballot The
Prohibition Amendment is on a sep
arate ballot.

Organ of American Exbeditionary Force
Calls for Reform by Which the Soldiers
Viii Be Treated Like Freedom Citizens

CThe final issue of 1.-THE stars and
Stripes has the following editorial
in dealing with the problem of re-
organizing the American army on a
more democratic basis:)
The American Legion is made up of
demobilized soldiers--men who know
what It means to surrender individual
impulse and desire in a common eff
fort and who Will not soon forget in
their returned freedom of choice and
action, the days when it was theirs
not to reason why" Whatever of
good there is in the American army
system is known to Legion members;
whatever there is of bad is also known
to them.
1t is reasonable to expect that the
Legion, aside from being an associa-
ton of those who contributed to Am
ericas effort in the great war. will
maintain genuine interest in those
who remain in uniform now that the
great war is over, or who shall wear
that uniform in the years to come.
The new standing army of America
if we are to have one-should be
something better than the one in
which, good as it had always shown
Itself to be, the American puDIlc
showed so little interest before the
great war
Regulations under which the A. e.
F. chafed and swore-and lied and
eVaded-were an inheritance from the
old revolutionary army. True, the old
poppycock of addressing officers only
in the third person died early in the
game under the stress and hurry of
actual warfare, but there We're many
other fetiches, more important and
more irksome. that persisted to the
end Certain sure defects of the sum-
mary court, the system that made it
possible for some officers literally to
hold up" their men and force them
to buy Liberty bonds Ito make a good
showing for my outfit'-these and
more combined. at times, to put the
patriotism of many a well meaning
men to the severest strain. In short
there is quite a bit of foundation for
the threadbare irony of THE next war
will be for officers only "--as every
broad minded wearer of the Sam
Browne will ADMIT.
But the trouble didn't start with
the army as we found it in 1917. 1t
started with the army commanded by

Point ;, To produce a good circu-
