TRANSATLANTIC FLYING

The British dirigible, R-34, which
Sunday completed the first transat-
lantic flight of a lighter-than-air
craft, is on its way back to the Brit
ish Isles.
The 3,60O-mile trip from Scotland
to Long Island in the face of contrary
winds, dense fogs and electrical
storms was brilliant and significant
feat. The imaginative can project
mental pictures of the time when
ocean traffic by air will largely have
supplanted traffic by water. They can
foresee persons, without thought of
seasickness, going to Europe in two or
three days instead of the five to ten
days now required by boat.
The previous nonstop transatlan-
tic flight by the British in heavier
than-air craft gives rise to specula-
tion as to which type of machine will
prove worthier for commercial ocean
flying. Both types will call for many
improvements before they can be put
into general use, but their develop
ment will probably go forward rapid
ly now that peace has been signed.
Great Britain is at this moment build
ing dirigible twice as large as the
R-S4, which is expected to be capable
of making nonstop flight from the
British Isles to Australia.
With such a lessening of the dis
tance between continents comes great
er hope for the ultimate union of
peoples under some rational central
ized government representative of all
countries and all peoples, and for the
present it gives us new and sound
er faith in the workableness of the
League of Nations

THE OPEN COLUMN
Tobacco Next?

Editor the Missourian: The Anti
Saloon League and the Women's s
Christian Temperance Union have said
that tobacco must go. Soon after ma
tional prohibition became an amend
ment to the Constitution, officers of
the Anti-Saloon League announced
that the next thing on the program of
moral publication of America would
be the purging of the country of the
cigarette, the cigar, the pipe and the
plug.
The injuriousness of tobacco is seen
in the fact that a drop of nicotine
will kill rabbit. When used by chill
dren or adolescents, tobacco stunts
their growth and development. The
mature smoker suffers from a dry
throat, headache, nervousness, weak
heart or tuberculosis. 1t was in recog-
milton of these facts that the cigarette
was nicknamed "coffin nail"
In addition to the waste in health
incident to the use of tobacco, there
is the huge money waste. Every year
the cigarette smokers of the United
States puff away millions of dollars
worth of tobacco. Cigarettes, with
the added war tax, are luxuries today,
but in spite of that, more persons
smoke them today than ever before.
The war has given the cigarette in
dustry remarkable impetus. Leisure
moments, discomforts and loneliness
combined to teach soldiers and sailors
to smoke. Formerly most smokers
rolled their own, but during the war
the so-called "tailor-made pill" sprang

BY PUBLIC OPINION

In enlightened, democratic coun-
tries, the day of the steam roller
has passed. Lofty, autocratic policies
and silent contempt have no place.
Public sentiment or opinion will make
a thing or sweep it away. People
have no fear Of the threats Of kings
or of divine right. The plain felix
rule the world.
The League of Nations must be ap-
preached in the same way as all 9TH
er questions. 1t is not divine docu-
ment. If there is a sentiment for it
and people are willing, it will be ac-
cepted. 1t can never be heaped upon
an unwilling public by any number
of stump speeches or by the gyrat.Cns
of a squad of orators.
1t is hard to fool children and plain
people. If the League is step up
ward and forward for the people of
the world, they will see this advan-
tage when the covenant is presented
to them. If there are flaws and cam
outage in it the folk of America will
see it and turn it down fatty. The
ultimate decision lies not with the
President or with the Senate of the
United States, but with the "hewers
The Evening Missourian. [volume] (Columbia, Mo.) 1917-1920, 1919-07-11

into unprecedented popularity. Many
new brands of factory-rolled cigar
cites flooded the market, and, assisted
by the government and by charitable
organizations, cigarette smoking be-
came almost as common and as re-
spectacle as eating.
But now comes the Anti-Saloon
League and the W. C. T. u, full of
self-confidence over their late victory
against alcohol, and they cry, down
with tobacco" And, no doubt, tobacco
will go down, just as the alcohol traf-
fic is going down. 1t has been true so
far in history, and it will probably
continue to be true, that whenever a
group of persons actively opposes
certain human institution or practice
which is obnoxious to organized So
ciety, the group eventually succeeds
in eliminating that institution or prac-
tice.
Egypt and Turkey, the namesakes OF
numerous brands of cigarettes, have
already abolished cigarettes in those
countries, and the "veiled-lady" ad-
vertising campaign now being carried
on by several cigarette manufacturers
in this country is likely to hasten the
downfall Of the cigarette in the United
States. M.

A GRADUAL REFORM

Scoffers at the power of law are
silent. The impossible has come to
pass. The flag of prohibition, which
symbolizes decency, purity and JUS
tice to innocent women and children
has replaced the black flag with its
hideous skull and cross-bones.
The weak in will have a chance to
build up reserve energy. True, many
will suffer the agonies of thirst
many will stoop to fouler habits of
drugs, but many will come through
better and cleaner men.
But now that one reform has been
accomplished, let US hope that re-
formers will not become too ambitious
and try to convert us Immediately
into saints.

THE NEW BOOKS
sThe Chaos in Europe,

Frederick Moore, who has had rare
experience as war correspondent,
ably describes the present military
and political situation in Europe in
his book, "Chaos in Europe" The til
tie by no means represents the scope
of the treatise. He gives vividly the
actual moral, political and CONNER
cial situation in Russia, the Balkans
and Turkey, and sets forth the need
of cooperation of the victors in war
in order to secure the worthwhile
fruits of victory, as he has seen con-
ditions with his own eyes. He also
outlines a comprehensive foreign pol
icy for the United States in the fu-
ture.

of wood and drawers of water" whom
they represent.
If the League is political propagan-
da and insincere, the factory hand and
the farmer should know it as well as
the politician and the college presi-
dent.
If the League should by chance be
heaped upon the world without the
support and good will of the common
folk, its purpose will not be accom-
plished. 1t can only become power
full and beneficial through demo-
cratic spirit and a fellowship of peo-
pies that defy all national boundaries.
If the League regards itself above the
people, it should fail. 1t is only in
humility, as an instrument of helpful
ness and progress, that it can reap the
greatest success.

TIE GRAIN MARKETS

CHICAGO, Aug. 20.-The corn mar. ket today was irregular and exhibited a succession of declines and rallies closing firm after a speedy working away from late low points. Light of ferings, further decline in foreign exchange rates and the demands of shorts were contributing factors. The close was firm, 1 1s to 1hc net lower on distant months, and Ac to 1kc net higher for September, the only deliv- cry finishing at an advance
 Closing prices for corn were Sep tember $1S4A to $1.S41s and Decem- Der $1.4S15 to $1.43%. Oats closed 1bc lower to 14c higher and provisions fin ished to 20c lower
 Sentiment in the corn market was more mixed than of late and prices underwent rapid chanegs. Commission house buying was evident on the low points.
 Oats followed the course of corn with firm undertone most of the time and resistance to selling pressure in which domestic cash demand fig ured.
 Provisions moved generally with grain. Export business was hampered by the low foreign exchange rates. The undertone was weak toward the end of the session. but fluctuations were in narrow limits.

NEW YORK, Aug. 20.-The more confident feeling created yesterday by the speedy settlement of the traction strike was completely dispelled today +by fresh misgivings regarding current field and industrial problems. Prices were firm to strong at the outset, but eased all around before midday and weakened before the close on the de moralization which prevailed in the foreign exchange market and growing apprehension as to the outcome of the steel workers strike vote.
 In connection with the further slump of exchange in London, Paris and Rome which extended to other continental European countries, it was rumored that the French government had entered into active negotiations with American bankers for a large loan to stabilize credits, but no confir- nation was forthcoming.
 Authorities secuted the idea of a protraeted strike in the steel trade, but their views were not shared hy traders, as indicated by United States Steel's decline to 9S3s, it's lowest price in four months and a drop of 23z points. Reversals in other standard stocks ranged from 8 to points, spe- cialties sustaining losses of 5 to al- most 10, the market closing almost at lowest levels. Sales 950,000 shares.
 Liberty bonds were fairly steady, but the general list. including foreign issues, was heavy. Total sales, par value, s10,675,000. Old U. S. bonds were unchanged on call.
