HUNGRY NEEDS THE MEAT
Allies Consider Restoring 25O,OOO
Hogs Held by SIavs.

Paris, March 30.-(By the Associat-
ed Press. .)-Hungary's increasing
need of food, especially fats, is caus-
ing the American relief administra-
non to give serious consideration to
the problem of restoring the 100000
hogs lost to the people Of that coun-
try by the fiXation Of new boundaries
In the closing days Of the war the
Austrlan-Hungarian people sent these
animals to the southern provinces for
fattening and all of them still are in
the hands of the Jufo-Slavs.
American officials have opened ne
Got!ations to determine whether BY
purchase or barter the hogs will be
returned when most needed.
A greater part Of the difficulties
created by the blockades and threat
ened blockades along the Italian
frontier disappeared in the past week
and as a result food is moving to
Czecho- -Slovakia, Austria and Hun
gary in greater volume.
The distribution in Vienna and
Budapest is progressing satisfactorily
and the success of the United States
signal crops in rc-establshing wide
spread communication will go far in
preventing any further hitch
1t is not possible to telephone be-
tween Triest and Vienna and there is
an American operator at either end
Between Vienna and Budapest there
is direct American controlled tele-
phone. From Vienna to Prague a
commercial line is open to the Ameri-
cans under an agreement giving food
messages priority. Communication
with Belgrade is possible with only
one telegraphic relay. There has also
been established through navy telc-
graphic communication with cara,
the capital Of Dalmatia, and down the
Adriatic coast.

Big PROHIBITION !.
CAMPAIGN pIAMMEl
10 Counteract Fight of Brewers and
Distillers
TO BE MADE WORLDWIDE
Program Announced From the Heod.
quarters Presbyterian New Era
Movement.

New York, March 3O.-Plans for a
Worldwide prohibition campaign to
counteract an alleged plan of Ameri-
can brewers and distllers to transfer
their activities to other countries after
the United States goes "bone dry''
were announced here tonight at head
quarters Of the New Era Movement of
the Presbyterian Church.
Especial emphasis, it was said, will
be given to the campaign in the
orient, as, according to the statement,
the Presbyterian Church "fears that
the brewers and distillers have partic
ular designs on China, India and other
countries where the Presbyterian mis-
slons have been making great head
way.
The anti-liquor fight, it was said,
will be waged by missionaries already
IN the field, as well as by special
agents, some of whom already are op-
Grating in foreign countries.
In addition to the anti-liquor fight
IN Mexico it was announced that the
church also would conduct an inten-
slVe campaign against gambling, cock
fighting and bull fighting.
-Four representatives of the church
1t was said, already are in Europe
planning the prohibition fight there.
The Rev. DR.. Charles Scanton, of
nitt.bGrg, general secretary of the
hoH: OF temperance of the church

country. Abe" Morris declared.
Did l say ne wasn't?" Abe ask
ed.
Then what are you dragging up
his past life for" Morris demanded.
What do you mean-dragging up
his past life?" Abe rejoined. The
way you talk, Mawruss, you would
think that being president of a col
lege come in two degrees like grand
larceny and had TO be lived down
through the guilty party getting the
respect of the community by years
of honest work"
SAY lookyhere. Abe" Morris pro-
tested. Don't try 10 twist things
around till it looks like was knock
ing Mr. Wilson, and not you"
II am knocking PRIEST Wilson!"
Abe exclaimed. Why. I've got the
greatest respect for Mr.. Wilson and
always did. Mavgruss, but it would
be foolish not 10 admit that the
practice which a president of the
United states gets in being a college
professor is more useful TO him in
framing up a first class, A No.
League of Nations than it is in get
ting his political enemies to accept
it. Am / right or wrong?"
Maybe he would have got them
10 accept it if he had stayed in
touch with them personally and
managed the peace conference by
wireless and cable" Morris suggest
ed.
He probably figured that If he
wanted 10 put over this here League
of Nations it was more necessary fol-
him 10 be on the job in France than
on the job in America" Abe said.
Well" Morris commented. the
next time the United States of Amer
lea has a peace conference on It's
hands. Abe, the president Will have
TO be co-partnership instead OF ar
individual, with one member Of the
firm in Washington and the other
in Paris"
But what would Admiral Gray
son do?'' Abe asked. He couldn't
be i ntwo places at the same time. -
Probably the Washington presi-
dent could find a bright young ply
stefan in the treasury department"
Mirris concluded, land promote him
to the honorary title and salary of
comptroller of the currency"

South Bend news-times. (South Bend, Ind.) 1913-1938, 1919-03-23

That's what them senator's fig
ured," Abe agreed. but they was
mistaken. Mawruss, because the
chances of being interrupted while
he is working on this here peace
conference by s. o. s. MESA ges
from Washington to please come
if he wants to save anything out of
the wreck congress is making of the
inside of the capitol"
But I thought that before he
went TO Europe in he first place,
Abe, Pres't Wilson said to congress
that IL wouldn't make any difference
to them about his being in Europe
because he was in close touch with
them, and that the cables and the
wireless would make him available
just as though he was still living in
the white house" Morris said.
Sure I know" Abe agreed, but
the trouble with that situation was
that Il amt been discovered by the
inventors yet how a president can
shake hands with a senator by wire
less or how he can sit down to din
ner by wireless with few congress-
men and make them feel that he is
their one best friend. Also, Nav
russ, 1t comes high even for a presi-
dent to send cable messages to a
senator which he thinks is getting
sore about something, such cable
messages being in the nature Of
Hello, Henry what's the good
word? Why is it 1 amt seen you
up TO the white house lately, Henry?'
or Where have you been keeping
yourself lately, Henry? or Mrs.
Lodge and the children all right,
Henry?' or something like that"
Say, for that matter. Abe" Nor
ris observed, "Pres't Wilson never
did a whole lot of pollying when he
could have done it over the tele-
phone at unlimited local service
rates. In fact, from what I have
seen of Mr.. Wilson, he looks to me
like a man who would find it a whole
lot easier to be easy in his manner
toward congressman by wireless or
by cable than face to face"
Well, you couldn't blame Mr.
South Bend news-times. (South Bend, Ind.) 1913-1938, 1919-03-23

just so long as he could make me
comfortable on an Atlantic trip in
winter time"
But there isn't no office in the
army or navy that Pres't Wilson
could appoint DR.. Grayson TO which
would have been a big enough re-
ward If DR.. Grayson could have
made the president feel comfortable
in Washington when he got there
Mawruss," Abe said, which 1 see
by the paper this morning that 81
United senators coming from every
state in the union except Missouri
suddenly discovered they was from
Missouri. in particular the senator
from Massachusetts, and not only
does them senator's want 10 know
what the meaning of that constitu-
ton of the League of Nations means,
but they also give notice that what
ever IL means, they are going to
knife it anyway"
Sure I know" Morris said
they're like a lot of business men
you and me has had experience with,
Abe. They claim a shortage and
kick about the quality of the ship
ment before they even start to I'M
pack the goods. Why don't they
wait till Mr.. Wilson goes back and
finished up his jOb?"
They haven't got the time" Abe
replied, because the session ends
on March 4th at noon, just about p
hours before Admiral Grayson is
paying his first professional call on
Pres't Wilson aboard the George
Washington. and by the time con-
gress gets together again, Pres't
Wilson expects to have the League
of Nations proposition sewed up so
tight that there will he nothing left
for them senator's to do but TO en-
dOrse it."
But as / understand il, them SEN
ators just lOafed away their time
during the end of the session and
didn't pass a whole lot OF laws
which they should ought TO have
passed. Abe, so that IL will be neces-
sary for Pres't Wilson TO call an ex-
ira session in a few days" Morris
said.

Is that they are not doing 50 much for

In giving this amount Of money L"

giving il makes for progress and results

For this reason. II for no other, the
purposes for which this money Is To he
expended means much 10 the community
in that Il will provide, among other
things for . detention home for jure-

from being placed in jail with hardened
criminals and emerge much worse than
