PRESIDENT WILSON
army, the navy and whose
repeal I have already
sought at the hands of
CONTINUED from page one.)
WILSON'S LETTER

The presidents letter to the House
follows;
Il am returning without my sigma
ture II. r. $50, an act to prohibit
Intoxicating beverages and to regulate
the manufacture, use and sale of high
proof spirits other than for beverage
purposes and to insure an ample sup
ply of alcohol and promote it's use In
scientific research and in the develop
ment of fuel, dye and other lawful in
dustries.'
The subject matter treated in this
measure deals with two distinct phases
Of the prohibition legislation. One
part of the act under consideration
seeks to enforce the war time prohib-
ition. The other provides for the en-
forcement which was made necessary
by the adoption of the constitutional
act. l object to and can not approve
that part of this legislation with ref
erence to war time prohibition. 1t has
to do with the enforcement of an act
which was passed by reason of the
emergencies of the war and whose OBJ
ject has been satisfied in the demob-
ilization of the army and navy and
whose repeal / have already sought at
the hands of the congress.
REASON FOR REPEAL
Where the. purposes Df particular
legislation arising out of war emer-
gency has been satisfied. sound public
policy makes clear the reasonsand ne
cessity for repeal.
It will be difficult for congress in
considering this important matter to
separate these two questions and eff
fectively to legislate regarding Them:
Making the proper distinction between
temporary cause which arose out of
war time emergencies and those like
the constitutional amendment of pro-
hibition WHICH is now part of the fun
damental law of the country. In all
matters having to do with the personal
| habits and customs of large numbers
| OF our people, we must be certain that
| the established process of legal change
are followed. In no other way can the
salutary objects sought to be accom-
| plisbed by great reforms of this char
acter be made satisfactory and per-
manent.'
Many government officials inferred
from the presidents statement that he
will take steps speedily to bring to ar
end wartime prohibition. which would
permit sale of liquor until the consti-
| tutional prohibition becomes effective
next January.
The wartime prohibition act was tc
remain in effect until the termination
of the war and the conclusion OF de-
mobilization, the date of which was t
be proclaimed by the president. At
torney General Palmer is said to hav'
advised the president that he wa'
without legal authority to lift the ban
until ratification of the treaty.

pENouNcE PROPOSAL.

The proposal which has been re-
Gently presented to the American peo-
pie that the United States should be-
come a trustee for the world. should be
denounced as destructive of liberty
and ruinous to the American people,
as well as injurious to the peace and
safety of the world.
The formal proposal recently laid
before the senate, by which, in the case
of future emergencies, the American
people cannot increase their army or
navy without the unanimous consent
and permission of combination OF
foreign powers, would violate the con-
stitution and surrender the sovereignty
of the nation. 1t should be denounced
as reasonable.
The Monroe Doctrine should be re-
established in it's full vigor: and the
| participation which it is proposed to
| give Europe in the control of Amerl-
can affairs should be denied.
| Should future exigency in Euro
pean affairs again arise of such pro-
! portions as to menace the interests
| of the United States. the American
people must be entirely free to deter
mine for themselves in their own gen
| Grafton the extent and manner In
which they shall intervene.
The recent assumption by certain Of
ficials of our. government of jurisdic-
| ton of the settlement of foreign con-
| troversies, which are of but remote
| concern to u.s. has engendered racial
animosities against the United States
We should cease officious meddiine
with other peoples affairs. The an
cient American doctrine of combining
our participation in governmental
matters to the American continent
while we stand as friendly neutra
to all nations with which we are a
peace, should be restored.
The ancient policy under which W.
have enjoyed peace and prosperity ant
attained greatness, with honest friend
ship and intimate social and CONNER
cial intercourse with the rest of TIT
world, should be re-es established.
The war being over, our peopl
should he allowed to enjoy the peac'
which their victory won.

GOVERNMENT SUPREME.
This nation cannot be ruled by cap
ital. and it cannot be ruled by labor.
Both capital and labor must be sub
ject to the rule of the people. The
government must be supreme.
The just claims of labor should be
recognized and every opportunity
should be given to 1aboring men and
their families for comfort and hap
piness. The laboring man, above all
others, is benefited by the preserva-
ton of law and order, the security of
life, person and property against vio-
Ience and arbitrary rule. But the eff
fort of any labor leader to put labor
in control of the government, by means
of industrial blockade, economic pres
sure intimidation of violence, or So
called direct action, cannot be toler-
ated, any more than such an effort on
the part of combined capital would
be tolerated. Either would violate the
cardinal principles of fr-e government.
Communism is inconsistent with the
vested right of a laborer to the wages
Of his labor. The right to work, to
join or not to join a union. and to ac-
cumulate or to use, as one secs fit,
and to transmit to his children the
wages of his work, is an essential part
of life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness"
Peace with Germany should be de-
clared at once.
The peace treaty should be stripped
of the extraneous membranes which
have been placed upon it; and which
have so long delayed it, and the per-
manent burdens which it is proposed
to place upon the United States IN
| the conduct of European affairs should
| be at once rejected.
| Every American soldier except those
engaged in diplomatic or other peace
| full service should be at once with
drawn from Europe and the continent
Of Asia: and the work of recruiting
and transporting military forces of thu
| United States for service in Siberia
and Germany, and the plans beint
made for sending an American arm!
to Turkey should be at once sup
pressed. The resources of our peopl
and the activities of their government
should be devoted to their own inter
ests instead of to those of foreign ma
tons.

that were rotten in the markets.
sTheir implements consisted of a

A gentleman usually went out in

Garnet Production
In u. S. During 1918

Chicago = The mine output of
abrasive garnet in the United States
in 1918 was 4.127 short tons. accord
ing to report of Frank ]. Katz of
the United States Geological Survey.
The quantity of milled garnet stocks
on hand at the end of the war
amounting to 2.030.
During 1918 the price of garnet
produced by quarry and mill operators
ranged from $25 to $50 a short ton.
The output was smaller than in pre-
vious years in spite of the heavy de-
mand. This was due to a shortage
of labor in the war period. The gar
net produced came chiefly from War
rem county. New York. Small amounts
were contributed from Merrimack
county. New Hampshire and Clay
county, North Carolina

NEW RUSSIAN STAMPS

Postage stamps have appeared
with the paper they are printed on
consisting of German military maps!
These queer adhesives are only a
few of many strange stamps which
are emanating from the land which
once embraced the empire of Rus
sia
The map-back labels come from
Livonia. There. paper was scarce.
For the postal authorities, the white
paper generally used must have
been unobtainable, because when
the first stamp issue of 'Latvija,"
the native name of Livonia, was
printed, the five kopecks value, and
perhaps other denominations, came
forth with the reverse side of each
sheet being what had been a topo-
graphical may of section of Rus
sia.
The scarcity of white paper is
further emphasized when it is stat
ed that lined writing paper also
was used, the ten and fifteen ko-
pecks values thus appearing with
thin blue lines running through each
sheet of stamps. Hugh M. Clark
has shown the editor sheets of
these adhesives.-Kent B. Stiles in
