pie will not take seriously the
platform of Mr.. Agan, which
favors a repeal of the 18th. a.

to do with any amendment to
the Federal Constitution; and,
if elected, he could not make
one hair black or white in the
matter. Tt is solely for the
consideration of Congress and
the people. The Amendment
has been adopted by the people
of forty-fve States and is a

Big Figures Show Popularity with

Boston-Sport followers in the
A. f. F. are given slant on the
much argued question as to what Is
Hthe most popular sport" in the army,
In the figures on participation and at
tendance throughout the entire a. e.
F. for one month, just received at
Northeastern Department "Y' head
quarters from Elwood S. Brown, chief
physical director of the Y. M. c. A.
These figures reveal football lead
ing boxing, but only by a slight mar
gin. Counting spectators and partici-
pants, footballs aggregate was 1885,
1852; and for boxing, 1,310,944. Con-
sidering spectators only, boxing takes
a slight lead, with 1927, POP as against
1,023,0S2 for football.
However, other questions besides
that of popularity" are known to
have had something to do with these
results. For example in army CEN
tiers in the devastated parts of France,
difficulties Of finding suitable fields
and amphitheatres have contributed
In some measure to the choice of
sports.
According to Mr.. Browns report,
he total participation by the A. E. F.
Il all sorts of sports during February
vas 6,564,747. Taking the estimate
f $4,000 as the average number OF
american soldiers in France in Feb
ruary, it is seen that the big sport
program, outlined in orders from &
H. @. last December touched every
member of the A. E. F. four times
over. II spectators, numbering L.
S91,3S2 are also included, the whole
A. e. F. has been touched seven times
over by the sports program.
Participation in mass games, de-
signed especially for the armies, has
had an enormous lot to do with the
piling up of these big totals of athletic
play and attendance. The total mass
game participation in the First, Sec
ond and Third Armies during Feb
ruary was 3,403,963. This represents
participation in variety of informa,
games, such as shuttle relays, circle
races and many other competitions Of
that sort. The Third Army led in the
total of participants and spectators in
athletics for the month.
The figures given in Mr.. Browns
report are compiled from reports sem
him by Y. M. C. A. physical directors
in the field. Army orders outlining
the general sports program placed G

L0WDEN'S WAR RECORD
Governor Active Aid OF Nationa!
Authorities.
His Own Son, Pullman, Wins His
Stripes in Overseas
Service.

Friends Of Frank o. Lawden point
with pride to his record as war gov
ernor Of Illinois. Promptly following
the severance of diplomatic relations
between the United States and Ger
many Gov. Lowden issued an appeal
to the people of Illinois to uphold
President Wilson.
1T Is the solemn duty Of all Ameri-
cans" he said, ito rally to his sup
port"
Three days later he went before a
joint session of the two branches of
the legislature to renew his appeal.
1--WE may have many sympathies, "
he said. I'VE can have but one allegi-
ance and that allegiance is to the
United States"
The authorities in Washington re-
garded Illinois as critical territory.
Gov. Lowden took immediate steps to
demonstrate that the state was united
ly back of the government in what
ever war measures it undertook. He
appointed a state council Of defense,
representing all parties and all ele-
ments, to organize the war activities
of Illinois.
The work of this council was note
worthy. Financed by an appropriation
Of $4,000 as against appropriations
for similar purposes in other states
running as high as $5.0O0,0OO. the H.
linois council achieved results equal in

things 1t did Of direct aid to the gov.
ernments military plans was to give
preliminary training to several thou
sand drafted men, so that on report
ing to camp they were able to obtain
immediate recognition as noncommis-
STONED officers. The councils chief
function, however, was In building up

ments Of whatever kind designed to
increase national efficiency.
The governor kept in close personal
touch with the Illinois boys in khaki
and blue. He visited them In their
camps, travelled to the seaboard to bid
Godspeed to departing cOntingents and
was at New York to give welcome in
the name Of the state to the veterans
who came back at the close of the
fighting.
His interest In the soldiers was not
merely official. Among them was his
own son, Pullman Lowden-a member
Of the Prairie division. In that divi
sion was the Dandy First" regiment
Of the Illinois national guard with
which Lowden served for three years
as lieutenant-colonel. Pullman went
overseas with his outfit, did his bit in
the ranks as a common soldier, and
came back with the cherished gold
service stripes.

The Volstead act and its ex-
ecution and enforcement an
act of Congress adopted in pur-
suance of the 18th. amendment
is the one source of evil and
injustice. Alcoholic liquors
have their uses and are some
times indispensable, but you
can't buy a pint of alcohol to
battle a poor fever ridden,
frenzied patient. You can't
get a pint of whiskey to carry
a person afflicted with influen-
"a or pneumonia over a crisis,
many have died for lack of it
and some of the rankest and
most uncompromising temper
ance people arise in their might
against it.
We should have light wines
and beer for beverage, sold I'M
der due and proper restrictions
and alcohol and it's various
notifications, like whiskey and
brandy, for medicinal purpos-
es; and we should be able tn
purchase it at local pharmacy
without being chased by a de-
tective or any smelling commit
tee.
Unless something of this
kind happens, we can see how
Congress will have a lot of new
members, but Agan is prepos-
ferrous to suggest that his nom
nation will have anything to
do with it.

And now we have mentioned
for Congressional candidates
in the second district Gibson,
Stone, Amey and Gordon, with
out asking Congressman Dale
if he wished to retire. Doubt
less the district could do worse
than take any of the five, but
would we expect any heavy
Craftsmanship to be held by any
of them? Dale has now the
prestige of three terms. Can
any of the others bring prestige
a. to offset that?
From Londerry Sitter.
That E. W. Gibson is to be-
come a candidate for Congress
to take the place of Porter H.
Dale is the feeling that exists
about the State House, altho
nothing certain can be obtain
ed about the matter. There Is
a rumor that he obtained petit
tons from the secretary of
State recently and it is known
that Mr.. Gibson was at that
office, bat no information was
forthcoming from that depart
ment relative to the matter.
There IS also a rumor about
the capitol that Harry B. Amey
of Island Pond will be a candi-
date for the same nomination
and that he will oppose the
18th amendment, If this oc-
ours it will make the congress-
icGal nomination fight interest
ing on the eastern side of the
State.
Burlington Fress Press.

doubtless what the Sitter"
says is true. Dale is Chairman
Of the Committee on EXpendi-
lures Of the Treasury DEPART
ment, the third member of the
committee on Banking and cur
rency, and d member of the
Committee on Rules.
That Mr.. Dale has made good
needs no further evidence. The
Committee on Rules is the most
important of any to which a
member could be appointed. 1t
practically dictates legislation
by directing what shall go into
tie mill for discussion and de-
cision.
The prediction Of Dale's
friends when he was nominal
ed at one of the hottest con-
ventions ever held in the State
has come true, and he should
stay in Congress.
