CONCRETE

Concrete is very strong. Concrete
roads arc very durable Concrete pill
lars hold up the mighty skyscrapers
of our large cities. But the concrete
pillars must be set on solid founda-
tons or the heavy buildings will not
stand. Concrete laid on foundation
of soft mud will not make lasting
road.
National Prohibition is the concrete
foundation upon which national So
briefly will rest. Supporting national
Prohibition, however, must be the
solid rock of an enlightened Prohibi-.
ton sentiment TO insure the continu-
ance of national sobriety. National
Prohibition is the concrete road which
makes temperance the easiest way
along the journey of life. 1t must be
upheld by the solid foundation of pub
lie sentiment in order to endure.

Colonel Smith, having come out Of
the war lieutenant colonel of in
fantry.
The first news that Colonel Smith
had distinguished himself on the
fields of France came through the
Chicago Daily News in an article
from the front by the distinguished
war correspondent Junius B. Wood,
who on October last cabled the story
OF Smith being recommended for pro-
motion for "gallantry in action and
able handling of his battalion in ac-
ton at Fey en- Haye," which is the
military way of saying bravery on
the field OF battle
Mr.. Wood gave to the battalion the
then Major Smith commanded the
name "THE BATTALION OF
DEATH and vividly described how
this gallant band of soldiers, the LIST
Bn., 3s8th Infantry, advanced over
five kilometers ahead OF the line

When the wave OF ratification OF
the Prohibition amendment was
sweeping over the country the state
mcnt was made that Prohibition
would increase the use OF opium and
cocaine. This statement is incorrect.
The effect will be just to the contrary.
The succession OF drug habits is as
follows-tobacco, alcohol, opium, CO.
caine.
A man generally starts the use OF
drugs by smoking cigarcts, Presently
that drug loses the kick and he goes to
a larger, stronger dose of tobacco.
That leads to alcohol. After a while
he wants a stronger kick than he can
get from alcohol and he takes, on
opium or some of its derivatives.
When opium no longer gives the SELL
saton that is satisfactory he goes to
cocaine.
The American issue. [volume] (Westerville, Ohio) 1912-19??, 1919-02-14

the number OF opium and cocaine adj
diets. The states and cities where
there has been prohibition OF alcohol
for a number of years have had no
increase i'll the use of opium and its
derivatives and cocaine. That there
will be an increase in bootlegging is,
OF course, true. When the legitimate
sale is stopped the illegitimate sale in
crcases and continues 10 be considera-
bic for number of years. No nation
ever quit any habit instantly. 1t will
take generation wholly to stop the
use of the drug. But each hve-year
period will witness an improvement
over the one which went before.

Not every drug addict follows in
these steps in their regular order.
Many shortcut and some begin differ
entity, or having begun differently
progress differently. Some opium
users do not and never have used
alcohol but the fact that there arc
exceptions does not disturb the rule.
The institutions which treat the NOR
phinc and cocaine habits stress the
necessity OF keeping away from the
use of alcohol Some authorities who
treat the whisky habit insist upon the
discontinuancc of tobacco.
Prohibition OF the use of cocaine
practically has been operative for sew
eral years. For a number of years
there has been practical Prohibition
of the use of opium The opium user
now depends on the bootlegger.
Now we are to have prohibition OF
the use of alcohol The opponents of
the Prohibition amendment would
have us think that making whisky
difficult to get will cause men to take
up new habit calling for drug that
is more difficult to get. The an
swcr is, first, that it is not good physi-
ology. The science of the thing
teaches us that when we break the
alcohol link we throw the links be-
yond that out of operation. When VIC
shortcut one step in progression
the tendency is for the progression to
stop Some of the people who, hav-
ing become hardened to whisky, take
up morphine under the old order, I'M
der the new will not become addicted
TO anything.

up behind Pfeffer. Smith and Cadore.
Five thousand Of the Brooklyn faithful
turned out to see the rout Of their
favorites
Uncle wIlbert Robinson was spared
the encounter. The Dodgers were
hurled sixteen men into the fray IN a
vain endeayor to escape a Waterloo.
The Yankee youngsters were on victory
bent, however. and Miller's managerial
strategy was In vain. Nine little Yam

combed the deliveries OF the Brooklyn
trio for nine ldts. including a homer.
The four base blow bounced of the bat
