Warning to the people of America
not to be misled and blinded by the
subtle propaganda of the liquor forces

contained in a statement issued
through the prohibition enforcement

general counsel for the league-stress-
ing the necessity for earnest support
in the weeks campaign fer funds to
assist in enforcing the probition laws
of the country which begins January
16, the day the eighteenth amendment
goes into effect. Mr.. Wheeler points
out that the wet forces are stopping
at nothing in their efforts to discredit
the prohibition forces and are spending
money lavishly in their efforts to un-
dermine and overthrow the prohibition
laws.
Great publicity is given wet propa-
ganda and the Anti-Saloon League viii
prohibit tobacco next" says Mr..
Wheeler. The National Tobacco
League has denied that it is in any re-
sponsible for this propaganda and
most of its officials are for prohibit
ton. The propaganda, of course is
false.
''The liquor is thrown down the
challenge along the line. The old Re
tail Liquor Dealers association is still
on the firing line to fight the 18th
amendment. In Maryland the govern

are attempting TO abolish the office OF

''In New Jersey the governor prom
ised in his campaign to make the
state as wet as the Atlantic Ocean if
he were elected. He is trying to make
good his promise. In Massachusetts

in the legislature. In other states the
fight to Kill prohibition is being waged
by every means, fair and foul, known
TO the liquor traffic. Money put into

FORESTRY MEN
PLAN MEETING
SECOND SOUTHERN CONGRESS
OPENS AT NEW ORLEANS JAN
UARY % FOR TWO DAY SES-
SION

Plans are being made for an inter-
esting meeting of the Second South
ern Forestry Congress at New Orleans,
January $3.50, 10 discuss the pressing
need for taking better care of nation
al resources. especially forests.
The following paragraphs are quot
ed from the invitations being sent 20
prominent lumbermen and forestry ex-
perts throughout the south:
The great war enforced upon the
attention Of the thinking men and
women of the country the pressing
need for taking better care of our
national resources. but especially the
forests. which were found to be es-
sential in war as in peace. For years
the American people have been
warned that the supply of their tim
ber could not last indefinitely. and
the recent almost prohibitive rise in
prices has emphasized that warning
The largest organization of Southern
lumbermen now declares that ninety
per cent of their operations through
out the South viii be obliged to close
their business within ten years for
lack of timber. 1t certainly seems
time to formulate and adopt plans for
providing a supply of timber for the
future
The forestry congress has been
called to consider, and, if possible, to
agree upon a policy of forestry for the
South. Colonel II. S. Graves, the
United States forester, viii present
definite though tentative plans, and the
of the various indus
tries dependent upon the forests will
lead in the succeeding discussions.
Delegates will be given full opportun-
ity to speak on the various points
