~ro.THE VINE WE HAVE DRUNK"

The last hope OF the "Wets" TO end
wartime prohibition went glimmering
when the United States supreme court
held that II was still effective and
would be until ~ present emergency
tion or the adt tion OF treaty OF
peace by the senate. The mere cessa'
tion OF hoStilities under an armistice
neither ends the emergency nor ter
inmates the extraordinary powers OF
the government, the decision recited.
and the fact that congress had adopted
constitutional prohibition further indi-
Gated the intented to make prohibition
permanent. Likewise the states are
bound to its observance.
The liquor interests have put up
hard fight, but IN to date have not sue
ceeded in mitigating the sentence OF
the people TO outlaw item. Ample time
has been allowed to permit the dis
position of stocks as the court deci-
sion points out. That some have not
availed themselves of these liberal pro-
visions and are suffering great losses,
Is their OWE fault. Those interested
financially In the liquor traffic cannot
realize yet that the country can exist
without liquor, and the rearguard ac-
tion will be kept up until the money
involved seeks and finds more profita-
ble and legitimate investment. II is
wholly matter of money with the
liquor interests and the legal. econom-
lc and moral grounds, on which many
Of their arguments are based, being the
flimslest sort Of camOuflage.
BY the supreme court decision last
week il can he definitely said that
Americans face an indefinite future as
dry as the great Sahara. The removal
Of distilled spirits and wine leaves a
great gap In the existence Of many and
makes us strangers To the past. much
OF whose best literature and philosophy
was inspired by the habits Of
drinking. Genius will have TO go its
dark wav unaided by the gift of the
gods. Henceforth allusions to wine
in literature will form n mere poetic
fancy as unreal as the neurological
charactrs credited with first pressing
IL from the grapes.

FREE TICKETS TO EUROPE

No less than dozen bills are now
before congress designed TO curb the
activities of the radicals who would
destroy the United States government.
Most of them are To provide easier

American citizenship, have taken out

lyestigations have shown that the de
partment of labor is honeycombed by
activity favorable to anarchists and
other red flaggers. The American Le-
glon has been intensely active in plac-
ing It's views before congress and this

pie behind them solidly.

THE THREE GREAT FACTORS

The two great political parties of
the United States face situation that
the wisest Of their leaders cannot fully
understand. There is general feeling
that petty politics must he aban-
doned In the interests OF pressing
problems, the solution Of which con-
front the nation. The best informed
admit that issues are hazy and not well
understood. In general way II Is
felt that the United States must throw
her great moral and material strength
into the effort 10 achieve peace prevent
the spread of bolshevism and regain
economic equilibrium. These are the
three great problems, but how To solve
them Is the difficulty.
Peace win not come 10 the world by
the ratification of the Versailles pact,
because practically half Of Europe and
Asia is still at war. However, the rati-
fication Of the treaty Is first and Inn
pOrtant step in that direction. A new
Moses must arise to lead the world
ont Of the bondage Of war and anarchy
into which Il has fallen. BE he re-
publican or democrat he will be hailed
as the great leader when he appears.
He has not yet appeared and the
measures he will promulgate are as a
closed book.
The world cannot hope for peace so
long as bOlshevism runs mad. II makes
economic adjustment impossible, be
cause It is destructive of the means OF
production, capital. and does not en-
courage man to labor and produce
WIN bolshevism subside? How can
its destructive work he stayed? There
Is no answer as yet.
The world must return to a solid
economic basis. But how can II while
war and bolshevism consume the ma
terials needed I'm production and keeps
the workers from their work. The
great nations are plunged In debt. with
currency deprecated and credit i'm
paired Assuming normal production
II would he n long time before world
could make good the wastage Of the
past years And. because sound
economic condition cannot be achiev-
ed. war and anarchy further tax the
social organization. The tendency IL
as vet steadily downward. BY what
means and through what agency the
plunge can be stayed. Is yet TO be
found

SMASH PACKERS COMBINE

The government suit against the five
great meat packers has been compro-
missed by the agreement of the com
panies to retire from al fields except
meat packing only. This means that
they win heneeforth cease TO deal In
side-lines such as food substitutes,
stockyards. railroads. terminals, news
papers. Eighty seven corporations
and forty-nine individuals are affected.
The agreement is made binding by n
voluntary injunction decree in the fed
eral courts that places the activities
of companies directly under the eyes
Of the government. II is expctd to help
reduce the high price Of many food
products. That II win accomplish
results remains 10 be seen.

GLASS HAS NO DOUBTS
 ABOUT LOANS SUCCESS

Carter Glass, Secretary of the Treas ury, is q confirmed optimist when 1t comes to the question of the United States financing itself. What Is more, the Secretary has facts Hud figures to support his opinion, to say nothing of his faith in the determination of the American people to see task con- pleted once 1t is begun.
 Senator Calder, junior Senator from New York, recently wrote the Secre- tery suggesting President Wilson call B special session of Congress to pass Legislation to protect holders of the outstanding Liberty Loan issues.
 Secretary Glass, in his reply, after pointing out that the best financial opinion in the country was agreed that the falling off in market quotations of the Liberty Bonds was traceable 10 other causes than interest rates and terms, shows that the adverse infiu- ences on the market following the ar mistice have spent their force. Secfe- tary Glass also finds that business con ditions now are such that the country may look forward with assurance to an era of prosperity that will send Liberty bonds well above par before their maturity. The wave of pessi- mism following the armistice has dis appeared, and the Secretary gives fig ures to show our financial status is stronger than ever.
 To-day" he says, there Is no insuf- fciency of credit for any useful enter prise, and business Is already forging ahead. Our national debt is less than $25, coo OOO, ,OOO, and when all the war debts are met 1t should not exceed S3O, 900, 100000 against which are held foreign obligations of about S1O,0OO.- 100000. As to national expenditures, while they reached a maximum of S2,- O00.000,000 a month shortly after the armistiCe, they would after the war bills are paid shrink to not more than S2,O0O, 100000 a year"
 In conclusion the Secretary express ed his belief that the market for Lib erry Bonds will improve as the true understanding of the financial strength of the United States is more fully dis seminated and as the Victory Liberty Loan campaign proceeds.

HUN PAPERS ARE AGAINST TREATY Declare Peace of Violence Must Be Absolutely
 Rejected. GERMANY WILL
 REJECT TREATY Bridgeport Seems Good to Hope After German Prison Tried to Rob Walter B.
Tried to Rob Walter B. Lashar After Fashion of
 Yellow Backed Fiction

Berlin, Tuesday, April 15.---Seml- official French announcements of the conditions to be laid down in the treaty of peace are denounced by the German press. Prince LichnowskV, In an article in the Tageblatt declares France ''forgets that, instead of lea;d- ing to disarmament, an unjustly ex- torted peace will bring forth only fresh armaments, throwing into the shade all former armaments. because a mailed fist peace can be maintained only by the mailed fist"
 Declaring that a peace of violence must be absolutely rejected, he con cll1des: Nobody can recommence the war against us. Neither can we be starved out without the common en-
 emy communism and terrorism,
 throwing all mankind back into it's primitive state.'
 NO German government can sign such terms" the Forwaerts declares The Entente statesmen must them selves settle with the inhabitants ot the saar Valley, who are thoroughly German and they may find that the sums proposed as indemnity cannot be extracted, even if the last sheet is taken from our beds
 The Bokal Anzeiger says: "Nc
 more shameless mockery of President Wilson's fourteen points can be i'm 1 agined than the proposed solution ot 1 the eastern question:
 The solution of the Saar question which is proposed means the cover 1 ing of naked annexation with fig i leaf" says the Boursen Courier. 'FMr 1 Wilson seems to have approved of z plan that would be the most tremen
 dous political defeat he could expert | ence.'
