activity was so obscure that his de-

These men were intrusted with the
supervision of all religious work con-
nected with the war camps in this
country and abroad. Not one of the
six is a Southern man. The South

Southern Presbyterians, nor any 9TH
er Southern church body was repre-
sented At the request of the
board itself the Catholic men,
Der was made chairman. This
self-appointed board administer
request of the board itself the Cath

This self-appointed board administer
ed the affairs of the Methodists, Bap-
lists, Presbyterians, Episcopalians
and all other protestant denomina-
tions, and spent the money contribu
ted to the Y. NJ. c. A. This same
board took unto itself powers here
tofore unheard of in the annals Of
American religious liberty. 1t exclud-
ed all protestant denominations from
Independent work in the army, and
admitted the Catholics through the
Catholic official organization, the K.
G.. The Jews were also allowed to
carry on their work independently.
The avowed policy of the war depart
ment was, presumably on recommen-
dation or approval of the aforesaid
advisory board, to "break down, rath-
er than encourage denominational
lines" In other words, soldiers we're
not permitted to worship according
to their own desires, but according
to the ideas of this self-appointed
advisory board and the war depart
ment. This all took place in the
United States, the country that was
founded mainly on the principle Of re-
ligious liberty.

of mere man when it is divested of
proper garments. But, continues the
good lady, 'the girls, after all, have
curves and attractions not at all dis
gusting when they are permitted to
come out on the beach without stock
ings." We hesitate to express our en-
tire approval of this utterance; yet,
far be it from us to dispute the point.
And their limbs are simply awful,
full of knobs. and besides most men
are bowlegged," continues the pro-
test. We confess it; it's the truth
We discerned these things years ago
in painful evidence on masculine eX-
tremities. and now that our attention
has been called to it, We cannot again
expose our knobs at the seashore to
the shocked gaze of those with the
"curves and attractions without
sense of outraged modesty. The writ
er says that the men, and not the
girls, should be compelled to cover
their uncouth and unsightly bodies
on the beaches, and We quite
agree-as to the men, of course
we cannot gain our consent to be-
lieve they we're made for sightseeing
exhibitions at the seashore. They are
shocking to the aesthetic sensibilities
so hereafter, by all means, men
should take their baths at home; else
take to the ocean fully covered.

WE AGREE WITH YOU.

A prominent Washington woman
has written a letter protesting to the
beach censor in regard to the strict
censorship directed against the fair
sex in the matter of bathing cos
tunes. "The way men are allowed
to parade the beach makes them re-
pulsive," says the indignant champion
of abbreviated costumes for the fair
ones, referring, of course, to the abb
sence of covering on the extremltles
of the said men. Entirely correct.
We never did see anything lovely
about the perambulating machinery

SELF.APPOINTED.

The Religious Herald, quoting the
Catholic War Council Bulletin, says
that the "big Six" members of the
war work council, were "at first self
appointed Later the council or COM
mission was officially appointed an
advisory board by Secretary Baker.
The board was composed of two Pres

Railroad employees, who are best
paid of any class of wage earners in
the United States, have asked con-
gress for an increase in wages
amounting to something like sS,000,-
900, which amount they say must be
raised by increasing freight rates. OF
course this burden would have to be
borne by the public, already overtax-
ed with the high cost of all necessar-
les of life, and railroad charges are
high enough now, goodness knows.
Not only do they seek to put this ad-
ditional burden on the taxpayers, but
they ask that the railroads shall be
taken from private ownership and op-
Grated as the employees say and for
their benefit. A more outrageous
and anarchistic idea was never pro-
mulgated anywhere, not even in Boil
shevist Russia. Labor dictated to
the government during the war, and
as they are never satisfied, they will
keep up this sort of thing as long as
they can. 1t is high time for the
patriotic men in both political par
ties to get together to stamp out this
radicalism. God knows where it will
end if it is not checked.

We trust that city council will en-
force the ordinances of Bamberg i'm
partially on all alike-rich and poor,
white and black. There has been too
much of this sort of thing here in the
past, and we hope that with the new
order of things that seems to be COM
ing here that this will be remedied.
Certain persons could violate a city
ordinance without suffering the pen
ality, but let some one else do the
same thing and he would be fined.
Let's have just and equal enforce
ment of our city laws on all alike.

THE FORD VERDICT.

Henry Ford in his suit for one mil
lion dollars damages against the Chi
cago Tribune for alleged libel gets
six cents, instead of a million dollars,
and everybody seems satisfied. Ford
contended for vindication, and got
it. From past records, we judge the
Tribune is not so much concerned
about vindication as being saved the
cash, and the paper is satisfied; at
least the papers counsel says so. No
body has said anything about the
jury that sat on the case for nearly
half year. No doubt they are thor
oughly satisfied to get out of the jury
box. Both sides to the suit have vainly
tried a make a sensation out of it
without much success. The news
papers started out by giving the pro-
ceedings big front page heads, but
the trial frittered down to one and
two liners before much progress was
made, and the public had about lost
interest in the case before the verdict
was reached. No doubt Ford and the
Tribune were trying to play to the
galleries. If they did try, both have
ignominiously failed. However, we
are rather glad Mr.. Ford secured his
vindication, for a paper has no more
right to insult man of big affairs
than small one, and even if Ford
were guilty of what the Tribune
charged, it would have paid no atten-
tion to it if he were not a millionaire.

W uSlilllStp JulS w al lihA~
prohibition took effect the Depart
ment of Justice announced that its
agents throughout the country would
not attempt to stop the sale of 2A per
cent beer. This eleventh-hour devel-
opmeDt, flat reversal of an earlier
ruling by the department, was due to
the uncertainty as to how the Federal
District Court of New York might
that beer containing that much alco-
hol was not intoxicating.
But while this uncertainty existed
as to beer Of lighter alcoholic per-
centage than that sold generally here
tofOre, full warning was given that
with respect to whisky and all bev-
erages as to whose Intoxicating pow
ers there was no doubt, every govern
mental agency would be set to work
in determined effort to prevent
their manufacture and sale.
How long the sale of 2A per cent
beer might continue would depend or
dinarily upon the speed of the courts,
but Congress meanwhile will step to
the front in an effort to complete the
effectiveness of the wartime law.
Exactly what they have refused
heretofore to do, the prohibition mem
bers of the House will now attempt
passage of n straight, clearcut bill
for the enforcement of wartime pro-
hibition.
When word spread that the attor-
hi linz hn1 H..
ted beer saloons and breweries to re-
main in operation, members of the
judiciary committee counted noses to
find a sufficient number ready to go
to the front to demand separation of
the enforcement measures, so as to
get through at once bill that would
stop the sale Of all beer containing
more than one-half of 1 per cent al
cOho.
Congressional leaders, 1t was said,
refused to abandon plans for a recess
in order TO put the bill through as
an emergency measure, and the whole
question of prohibition will be held up
temporarily.
While the attorney generals staff
was wrestling with the question of
Intoxicating and Misunderstanding beer,
the judiciary committee sent to the
House it's report, in which the bold
assertion was made that anything
over one-half of l per cent alcohol
was Intoxicating within the purview
of the general law and that Congress
and not the court should fix the alco-
holic percentage of all beverages, sale
of which is restricted by prohibition
| statutes.
Attorney General Palmer, in his
statement as to the policy of the de-
partment, called attention to the fact
that the authorities in every city and
state had been requested to give the
utmost cooperation in the matter of
enforcing all undisputed provisions of
the wartime law.
The temporary refusal not to pro-
| Ceed against those selling 2A per cent
beer-althOugh evidence against them
will be obtained with view to their
prosecution in the event the court de-
cides against the brewers-does not
mean that persons offering it for sale
in territory heretofore dry will be ex-
empt from arrest and prosecution.
