mostly for strawberries and tobacco
and the corn growers OF oldcn days

that country. Good moonshine could
be bought for SO gallon. The
natives were poor and wretched, as
the corn crops didn't pay much and

there, too, though the price of illicit
whiskey had jumped from So gallor
to SIG a quart. But the people are no
longer openly making whiskey.
"Gone are the days when the Ten

rifle and his life. Gone are the days
of pitched battles with the "revenoo-

sugar in this country Representative
King Of illinois charges it is due to
the manipulation of the federal re-

is what he says: "The sugar shortage
is due almost entirely to the financing
Of the hoarders by the federal re-
serve. The bureau of markets informs
me that on April % there were 127,947
tons of raw sugar stocks in New YORK,
Boston and Philadelphia, compared
with 11O,991- tons a year ago. But
with the aid of the government, work

The naval inquiry is certain to bring
about some improvement in methods
and organization. Unhappily there is
no way of preventing the appointment
of incompetent civilian secretaries of
the navy such as Josephus Daniels,
for instance. Only public opinion or
the conscience Of an occasional presi-
dent can save the navy from that, and,
as for public opinion, it will continue
to be Indifferent. to national defense
until we are soundly thrashed by some
enemy.
