angel telling of the desperate
fight against odds American troops
are making in northern Russia.
Now they are defending themselves
against Bolshevik regiments out
numbering them ten to one. Again
they have "retreated ten miles"
Always there is danger of being cut
off and wiped out. Which leads to
the question, why not send an army
large enough to beat the Bolsheviki
or withdraw altogether? Why leave
our little force to perish miserably
as a forlorn hope in a foreign land
when we have hundreds of thou
sands of men to back them up?
What kind of a Russian policy is
this? Let us either get into Russia
with big army or get our little one
out. Our soldiers are dying need
lessly over there and the Govern
ment ought to be ashamed to per-
nit it.

THE d. A. r.

" HE Daughters of the American
Revolution have demonstrated
that they are more than a mere
social organization bent upon keep
ing alive memories of our first great
contest at arms for the perpetuation
of liberty and independence. Last
year the members raised many thou
sands of dollars for the purchase of
ambulances, field kitchens and COM
forts for soldiers and was the first to
endorse and observe the Hoover food
saving program. The election of Mrs.
Anna Hamilton Wood, of Harris
burg, to be State Recording Secre-
tary, was fine compliment to the
Harrisburg Chapter which so de-
lightfully entertained the State con-
ference this week.

Where Things Are Better
(From New York Times)

(fr0m New Ork I1meS)
Dispatches from Prague (Which
perhaps we had better begin to call
Praha, as it's inhabitants do) indi-
cate that the new Czecho- -Sloyak
republic is an island of compara-
tive happiness in sea of more or
less intense misery. War, Bolshevism
and starvation have afflicted all Bo-
hemia's neighbors TO a greater or
less extent, and even the Czecho-
Slovaks have some minor troubles
such as frontier skirmishes with
Magyars and Poles and the more
distant but more weighty perils OF
Bolshevist invasion from Russia.
Nevertheless, business. is actually GO
ing on among the Czecho-Slovaks
and on sound basis which seems
to have won the confidence of u good
part of the German minority. The
two great needs. are bread and coal,
the mines are not yet working at full
capacity, and until they are doing
better there will be q shortage OF
fuel for beating and for the full re-
establishment of bohemian industry.
The trouble at the mines is indi-
rectly responsible for the food
shortage, for German Austria wants
coal which the Czechs are unable to
spare, and until that coal is provid-
ed the Austrians are. likely to be
unaccommo odating as to the ship
ment of food through their terri
tory from ships in the Adriatic.
However, the economic situation
among the Czecho- o-Slovaks shines
brightly by adjacent comparison
and on the foundation of the rela-
tive prosperity is built q towering
superstruc.ure of joy over the trium-
phant success of the national rev.
olution. Theaters are doing big bust
ness. Emmy Destinn, kept from New
York by an Austrian governme
which disliked her because she was
a patriotic Czech, has been freed
from this honorable internment and
is singing at the opera. Americans
are intensely popular; while the
Czech -Slovak Arts Club is giving con-
certs of Czecho-Slovak music in New
York, an American artist in Prague
is giving recitals of American music.
Streets and bridges have been named
for President Wilson; vehicular
traffic on them is somewhat sparse
at present. for the Austrians stole
all the horses and automobiles, but
the Czechs will soon get more. And
the story of life in this happy valley
is fifty capped by, the presence of the
well-known coforatura propagan-
dist, George Creel, sojourning among
the Czechs before beginning a tour
of Central Europe No coal, but Des-
tim; no taxicabs. but Creel; the SUBJ
stitutions should satisfy an artistic
people. ~ ~

A QUERY

10 the Editor of the Telegraph:
The Constitution of the United
States reads "All executive and ju-
dicial officers, both of the United
States and of the several states, shall
be bound by oath or affirmation, to
support this constitution" In ac-
cordance with this requirement
every judge upon the bench in Penn
sylvania is bound by oath or af-
firmation to support" the United
States Constitution. Prohibition of
the manufacture and sale of intox-
icating beverages is part of the
Constitution of the United States to
become effective on January 16,
1920, or even If the technicality that
it did not become a part of the
Constitution before the proclamation
of the Secretary of State of the fact
of ratification should be esta blished
by the courts, 1t became then un-
doubtedly part of the constitution
on January 20, 1919, and would be
effective January 90, 1920.
The Brooks High License CD law
is the only authority any court in
Pennsylvania has under which to
grant license to make or sell intox-
icating beverages. This law pro-
vides for license for but one period
of time, namely one year, neither
more nor less. To grant a license
for more than a year. is to grant
a privilege which the United States
Constitution forbids. Our query:
How can any Pennsylvania court
support this Constitution" of the
United States while granting a liz
cense to do what that Constitution
forbids? Would it not be a VIOLA
ton of the oath of office taken by
any Court to do so?
b. L. P. PRUGH.
Prohibition State Chairman.
