BOOZE BAD FOR CHI

THE WATER WAGON,
SAYS CHIEF GARRITY

Chief Garrity of Chicago
wants his policemen to "cut out
the booze on duty or off. This
is how he put it up to them in
a recent order:
Since | assumed this office,
| have scrutinized closely the
charges against members OF
the department submitted to
me, and ] have found that over
90 per cent of the charges
were due to drinking.
while l have been rather
loath to be severe with men,
bers of the force, there is one
thing / will not tolerate, and
that is drinking policemen.
There is no sight more dis
gushing than a police officer,
either on or off duty, under the
influence OF liquor, and this is
particularly true of. officers in
uniform.
All members of the depart
ment are hereby notified that
| will recommend to the civil
service commission, that any
policeman who is found guilty
of charges of intoxication be
dismissed from the force"

Look at national conditions today.
Assume that we secure ratification by
SO states in 1919. The next big task is
10 secure strong Prohibition statutes
by Congress to enforce the amend
ment. The liquor trafhckers will
strive for a weak law. A nationwide
campaign by the Anti-Saloon League
will be necessary.
Then state Prohibition must be
won with concurrent enforcement
laws i'll all states, especially those
in the wet column. Assume that we
have secured complete Prohibition
which will take effect in 1920. War
conditions have saved five years
time, but public sentiment has not
kept pace with legal enactments.
More than 10000 places of sale OF
liouor suddenly will be closed At 80
feet of frontage each there will be
900 miles of frontage closed down.
Do you think the appetite in front OF
the bars and the greed behind them
have been abolished by the law?
Those powerful factors will still be
here. They will do their utmost to
create reaction.
Think of the cupidity of the export
trade. From the Boston custom
house | have the figures showing
that in the last three years before
we entered the war more than a mil
lion gallons OF spirituous liquors
were shipped each year. That was
the shipment from only one port.

WRITERS WHO
TOOK TWO PAYMENTS

Sincere sympathy-streaked with
a little of the enjoyment found i'll the
misfortunes of friends when the mis-
fortunes are not too severe-will be
given to The Atlantic Monthly and
other estimable periodicals that have
been buying and printing articles
written by hired agents of the Brew
ers' Association. Some of these ar
ticles were sufficiently interesting to
make it easy to understand why the
editors accepted them. The brewers
did not waste their money on incom-
petent scribblers, but selected their
literary defenders with skill.
Against such guile as this even the
wisest and most suspicious OF editors
would not have an always trustworthy
defense. and those who were thus
themselves deceived cannot be Justly
criticized for having in turn deceived
their readers. That they did so, how
ever. is a fact, lamentable and hui
initiating, for had it been known and
revealed that the authors of the ar
ticles in question were in receipt oil
salaries from the brewers their pro-
auctions might still have been read
from wholly different point OF view

POOLING THE PEOPLE

The following paragraph from az
editorial in the Rockford Gazette and
Standard expresses important truths
about wet politicians.
There is no such thing as a wet
Republican. A wet Republican is
wet. That means he uses the Repub-
lican party as long as he can use il
to help himself or the wet cause, and
when he can use it no longer in the
interest of the liquor traffic he bolts
The same is true OF the wet Democrat
He uses the Democratic party so long
las he can help the wet cause, and when
he can no longer use the party in the
interest of the liquor traffic he will
bolt, just the same as the so-called
wet Republican bolts. F.. When il
comes to wet and dry legislation, ther,
are just two sides-wet and dryAand
the vets desert their parties like rats
from a sinking ship if their party
gives any real indications of favor
ing the dry side. The vets are not
Republicans. They do not believe in
majority rule. They are just plain
and fancy vets, and no party can
make wet man vote dry, whether
he is member of the state Legisla-
ture of Illinois or of the Congress of
the United States. II the Legislature
of Illinois fails to pass the federal
amendment and otherwise strengthen
the anti-saloon laws, it will not be
representing the real sentiment of the
Republican party OF this state"
When these facts are better under
stood by the public, it will be hard
for the wet politicians to fool any OF
! the people, any of the time.

Webb-Kenyon Law
Again Sustained

On January 7 the United States SUI
preme Court upheld the Webb Ken
yon law, forbidding the shipment OF
liquor into a dry state. The decision
was given in a suit against the Mis-
souri, Pacific Railroad for violations
OF this law. The sole point involved
was whether a two-thirds majority in
the United States Senate means two
thirds OF those voting or two-thirds Of
the full membership. The railroad
claimed that the law was illegally
passed because il did not receive 65
votes, 'or twozthirds of the total Sen
ate membership OF %. The Webb
Kenyon law was passed over Presi-
dent Taft's veto by vote of 63 to Fl
with ii not voting. In holding that
the Webb-Kenyon law is constitutions
al, the Supreme Court reafiirmed a
previous decision.
In suit filed in the United States
Court at Cincinnati, Ohio, the same
point was raised in connection with
the passage of the national Prohibi-
ton amendment resolution. 1t was
commended that because the resolution
was not passed by two-thirds of the
total membership instead of by two
thirds of those present and voting, the
resolution was not legally passed. The
court held that a two-thirds majority
OF those present and voting was suf-
fcient to pass the resolution and de-
MED the injunction to restrain the gov
ernor of Ohio from submitting the
amendment to the Legislature.
The news oil the United States Su-
preme Court decision upholding the
Webb-Kenyon act and the Ohio deci-
sion on the same point was published
at the same time that the announce
nlent of the distillers that a billion
dollars would be spent on national
Prohibition in the courts appeared in
the newspapers. This was happy CO.
incidence, but it did not make the dis
filters happy.

Brewers Seeking
Permission to Again
Resume Brewing
Would Sell Before July / for Use
After War Dry Rule

| There is reason to believe that the
brewers are making desperate eff
! fort to secure n ruling from Washing
ton permitting them to resume brew
ing until War Prohibition puts stop
to it on May /. Under orders from
the President brewers have been for
hidden the making OF beer since the
| first of December. There is plenty OF
beer in the country to supply the
normal demand up to the time the
sale of intoxicants is prohibited on
July by War Prohibition The
| brewers, however. wish 10 lay i'll an
additional supply to be sold before
July to consumers who will store it
for use after July /. In order to Sc
cure permission to continue brewing
the brewers will endeavor to make it
appear that unless brewing is again
permitted the supply OF beer will be
exhausted before July | with the re-
suit that the use OF whisky will be
greatly increased. To back up their
claims, they expect TO report the
quantity on hand in the various brew
cries in the country. They do not ex-
pect to report. however, that much of
the beer now i'll stock has been
brewed to double strength. Before it
can be sold under present regulations
this beer is diluted with water. By
this plan the brewers were able to
store twice as much beer as would
have been possible had the alcohol
content been as low as it must be be-
fore it can be sold. Now the scheme
is to report to the government the
number of barrels on hand as proof
that the stock will be exhausted be-
fore July l. Nothing will be said
about the double strength PROPOSE
ton. II the government needs the
appeal of the brewers they will simply
manufacture all they can for the pur-
pose of selling it for storage by con-
sumers after July /. Then after hav-
/ ing added greatly to their already
enormous profits they will appeal for
compensation on the ground that
Prohibition robs them of their prop
erty.

The Brewers Own
Story of Why They
Stopped Making Beer

The American Brewers Review, i'll
its October number, contains an arti-
Gle which tells why the brewers
obeyed the Presidents order to close
up. 1t was their patriotism. Remem-
bering how the brewers have bribed
lawmakers, corrupted law enforcers.
influenced judges, secretly subsidized
newspapers, supported anti-American
societies, and controlled politics in
general by fair means or foul, their
explanation is very, very interesting.
OF course, it is only coincidence
that when the War Prohibition order
came the political power of the brew
ers had been broken and they had no
choice. The article follows:
"The brewers of this country as
whole and as individuals have ac-
cepted the decree of the President
without an audible murmur OF pro-
test Indeed, the patriotic spirit of
these American citizens must run
very high and it is our firm belief
that in no other country i'll the world
would the brewing industry have
been snuffed out without a great
struggle for its existence, which is
one of the basic instincts of human
nature. Especially in liberty-loving
England has the brewing industry
FOUGHT tho ooverp,,,ept ~ a e+aod
still. They did mot dare put the
brewing industry out OF business
there, nor did they dare to ostracize
the product of the brewery, either for
home consumption or as a ration for
the army The drastic measure that
has stricken this great industry in
America, which will leave for long
time to come deep wounds, not only
in the physical or economic life OF
the nation. but will touch to the
depth of the very soul a very large
fraction OF our population could only
be possible in Our country. For ever
more the patriotic attitude OF the
brewery world of America should
stand as monument for patriotic
self-abnegation and we sincerely hope
that the brewing industry will come
back from its ostracism with the full
approval and recognition OF the
American people as benehcent ne.
cessity."
The American issue. [volume] (Westerville, Ohio) 1912-19??, 1919-01-17

Greed like that will be hard to sup
press.
Think OF the polite social and
medical drinkers. Hundreds of thou
sands there are who favor wine and
other drinks i'll the home and who
think wrongly enough that liquor is
good as medicine. Hundreds of
thousands more among the toilers by
hand and brain think wrongly enough
that liquor helps them do their work.
The soldiers are coming home. A
majority of them arc convinced that
Prohibition is a good thing, but there
| is minority whose attitude is like
that of three Cincinnati boys who
sent their ballots home marked Ohio
wet" The fact is, millions of our
population are opposed to Prohibi-
ton, and large part OF these mil
! lions will do their best to bring about
reversal of the Prohibition policy.
Under these conditions it is a
blessed providence that we are called
to do missionary service. We ought
to do it. 1t is our bounden duty to
undo the pollution of drink which we
have forced upon the feeble races of
the world. By the laws of brother
hood we are bound TO tell our neigh
Dor nations the truth which has set
us free and the methods by which we
have fought our way to freedom. To
do this we must keep our League
alive and alert and build it doubly
strong.

ten without the expectation that II
would change any votes. But both
the man who wrote it and the man
who read it in connection with his
speech were mistaken. Following a
wet speech by Lee Oneal Brown
which was answered by Representa-
tive Wanless the big sensation was
sprung. Adclbert H. Roberts, col
orcd Representative from Chicago
rose to speak. He declared that his
district was overwhelmingly wet and
that he had intended to vote wet on
the resolution. "The people whom l
represent he said, have share in
my vote here. But | say i'll the pres
ence of the people of America, that
Chicago Tribune editorial changed
my vote from wet to dry" After
Roberts concluded what many old
timers said was one OF the most elo-
qucnt talks they had ever heard in
the House the wet opposition seemed
TO crumble. Their hopes of keeping
seventy-seven from being recorded on
the final roll call were apparently
completely crushed.
The Final Roll Call
Anxious Tor vote at the earliest
possible moment the drys made no
moro speeches. The vets seeing
the futility of further oratory, even
for personal advantage, offered no
further arguments. Then the clerk
was instructed to call the roll on
the ratification resolution. The drys
answered AYE" confidently: the
vets answered "No" sometimes hope
lessly, sometimes deiiantly. Lyon OF
Chicago and Mccarthy of Aurora Eek
planned their wet votes when their
names were called. Aside from these
Interruptions the roll call proceeded
quickly through to the end. The
multitude of drys in the galleries and
on the floor kept count. The dry
lines held-the seventy-seventh vote
was cast-and it was all over. except
the recording of enough more to make
the total OF 81 for ratification. The
vets had been able to muster only 90
in the final test. The long, hard bat
tie was won.

GETTING GooDi

The Buffalo Brewers Association
last week announced the adoption of
a resolution, extending until four
months after rehabilitation the rule
forbidding the sale OF liquor to SOL
diers and sailors. The resolution also
extended the scope of the rule to in
clude all men in uniform whether or
not they have been released from serv-
ice. The action was taken at the re-
quest of Major William Wright, dis
trict supervisor of the War Depart
ment on Training Camp Activities.
