The Great Fight with the Liquor
Element

That the next great fight with the
| liquor element in this country will
be national political battle, is the
opinion of DR.. P. A. Baker, of
Montgomery. National Superinten-
dent of the Anti-SaloOn League of
America, in Atlanta attending a
meeting of leading business men of
the city who are interested in the
prohibition enforcement camgaign.
1t is the opinion of DR.. Baker
that the attack of the liquor forces
on the Eighteenth Amendment in
the courts will fail as have all their
other attempts TO prove the prohibit
ton and enforcement laws invalid.
The LIQUOR men realize this fact.
be believes, and are coupling politi
cal activities with their efforts to
undermine the effectiveness of the
prohibition laws by encouraging its
I anu idA CiilOi1C-
ment
| They are by no means combining
their efforts to the courts or to prop
uganda work among the people, .
says DR.. Baker. but they already
are actually organizing their politi-
cal forces in twenty-four states at
| least for the purpose of electing
senators and congressman who will
| be pledged to vote for repeal of the
prohibition law or, at least. to
weaken it in every way they can.
This political move of the liquor
forces is the wisest one they could
make for they think they will catch
us asleep, and that very thing will
happen unless the friends of prohi-
bition stay on the job all the time
and do their duty at the polls.
The necessity for funds to COM
bat this attack i, readily apparent.
The vets have plenty of money be-
hind them and they will spend
every dollar of their ill-gotten gains
to preserve their worthless lives.
That is the reason every red
blooded man who loves his country
and who believes in law and order
should rally to the support of this
campaign for funds to carry on this
work which opens January l6, when
the Eighteenth Amendment goes in
to effect. and which will continue
one week"

More About Roads

Editor, Aberdeen Weekly.
Will you be SO kind as to give
space TO this article on county
road building.
II is useless TO continue kick
ing and complaining of our bad
roads and laying the blame on
our Supervisors and Road Com
missioners, but il is better 10 be
generous and say that possibly
they did what they deemed best
in trying to give us good, sub
stantial roads.
Now for a change: in place Of
adding more dirt TO the roads
and causing quagmires. why not
first drain the roads behind the
work of a civil engineer and let
the ditch continue from these
roads, so as to take the water
away; il will take less money to
accomplish this than it does TO
make fills and cause quagmires.
The engineer can present his es-
innate of cubic yard, or rod.
quantity TO the Board of Super"
and the work let out TO the low
est bidder. Let the same engi-
ueer take up all work according
to specifications and you will see
better roads at a less expense to
the tax payers. In going to Alb
erdeen or Amory, if we were
forced to stay in the road, we
could not go to either town.
Through the generosity of some
landowners, however, we are
allowed to go over private prop
erty and have been enabled to
reach these towns. A few days
ago Mr.. H. A. Brite. who has a
hog ranch at Wixland, failed 10
draw an empty wagon from one
of these quagmires with four
good mules and actually had to
use the shovel in order to move,
all caused by fills and no drain
age.
Now as to those who doubt,
give us a call and we will prove
to YOU that we need change.
Respectfully,
O. A. BOWEN.

Straight Talk About Roads

We understand that $500, O00.OO
is available for constructing and
uIfacing roads in the Fourth
District. The taxpayers are in
terested in the distribution of this
fund so that equal justice shall be
done to the people of every part
of the district. The people OF
Aberdeen are especially interest
ed that the fund be expended in
such way that every nelghbor-
hood of the district shall be
placed in easy reach of a
thorouhfare that leads TO Aber-
deem, its home market and coun
" site. The people of both Alb
erdeen and the country have a
right to expect that this will be
done. Aberdeen pays a prepon-
derance of the tax that goes to
build these roads. but from that
standpoint alone would have no
right to insist that any part OF the
district should be neglected IN
order that the people of the town
alone might profit.
No money ought to be ex-
pended on building cross sections
of roads that would connect main
thoroughfares, no matter how
valuable the property alongside
these cross roads might be, until
full Justice has been done every
community in the district by the
construction of main highways
by which its people might reach
their home market.
The building of cross sections
that would connect main
ihoroughfares already construct
ed would be a gross injustice TO
the business interests of Aber-
deem. as we'll as TO every com
munity whose people have not
already been provided with a
main thoroughfare leading TO
their home market and county
seat.
The main highways should be
built first. After that every per-
son in the district would, doubt
less. cooperate in building cross
sections where needed.
If any one agrees or disagrees
with this article, we would be
glad to give space to his views
in the columns of the Weekly.

WOMEN EXCEED MEN
IN JAPANESE FACTORIES
$50, 900 Japanese Women Work
at Average Daily Wage of Ten
to Twenty Cents for a
Twelve Hour Day.

There are more women in industry
ia Japan than there are men, accord
to a statement recently made by the
War Work Council of the Young Wo-
mems Christian Association.
The world war has brought SOC, 600
women and girls into the daily grind
Of industry according to this state
ment: 10000 of them little girls under
fifteen years of age who work twelve
hours at wage of ten to twenty cents
a day, that the world may have silk
dresses and munitions.
In Tokyo alone, a city of two and
one-haif million people, there are 100,-
900 women employed In sixty-two in-
dustrieS and businesses varying from
work as telephone operators, clerks,
stenographers and bookkeepers TO
work in silk and other sorts of fac
tories and domestic work
Each year thousands OF these wo-
men go back to their homes in the
country, broken in health and victims
OF tuberculosis because of the poor
conditions under which they work and
live. They are housed in dormitories
In the factory compound. These dormi-
tories are frequently unsanitary. The
girls work long hours, have no recre-
alton and on finishing their long day
go Immediately TO bed. oftentimes a
bed which a girl who works at night
has been sleeping in all day.
AS part Of it's world service for wo-
men, the Young Women's Christian
Association plans to build dormitories
in manufacturing towns where girls
may live cheaply under healthful
physical and social conditions, to send
out secretaries who can introduce rec
reation into the factory compound aud
direct games and social life.
This Is done with the cooperation
Of the factories managers and pro-
prietors. One of the most influential
of these is Mrs Suzuki, the most
prominent woRan manufacturer il
Japan. who is owner and manager of a
firm which exported $11 ,000,O 600 worth
of bean oil TO America last year
Recently Mrs. Suzuki decided to
employ one thousand women in her
offices. She could not find enough
well trained ones so she established
q permanent school where Japanese
girls may be trained to enter the bust
ness world. The greatest danger
growing materialisni, and Japan's
greatest need, the development of her
women.

The Seriousness of Tuberculosis

The people of Mississippi are
urged to give their enthusiastic sup

Seal Sale. December 1st to 18th. -
Governor Theo c. Bilbo in a procli-
nation setting aside that period
for the effort.
The proclamation says, in part:
tuberculosis is the most wide
spread and dreaded of all diseases.
Its ravishes are confined to no
class nor condition. Its death deal
ing hand reaches the rich and poor.
the palace and the howell There
were 200, 600 deaths from tubercu-
losis in the United States last year.
10000 cases in Mississippi alone.
For many years tuberculosis was re-
garded as incurable. Modern sci
ence has demonstrated that il can
be cured and eradicated, and all
over the land there are sanatOriums
for its treatment.
In recent years our people have
awaked to the importance of prompt
and efficient dealing with this NAL
ady whose death toll is greater than
wars. Red Cross Christmas seals
are sold for one cent each and the
money thus raised is used in the
campaign for the treatment and
eradication OF this disease. Mis-
sissippi's quota &c, 800. 900 seals and
S208 900 will be realized This is
less than 10 cents per capita. Sure
ly our people can and will purchase
these seals and contribute this small
sum to help the great work. -

The Federal Income Tax

Mr.. W. O. Rainey. Public Ac-
countant. writing from Clarksdale
to the Memphis Commercial Appeal
writes as follows concerning the
Federal Income Tax:
The income tax section of the
revenue law, now operative, grants
to the individual a personal exemp-
ton, in the case of an unmarried
man ST. 900 and in the case of a
The Aberdeen weekly. [volume] (Aberdeen, Miss.) 1878-1933, 1920-01-02

married man $4,000 plus 5000 for
each dependent child under Is years
Of age. These exemption rates
were fixed several years ago, and
although the cost of living has
steadily advanced and is, in fact,
more than 100 per cent greater
than when the rates were fixed, the
individual exemption has meyer been
raised. These rates were consider
ed as a merely reasonable allowance
for the necessary expense OF living
at the time they were fixed. and it
is therefore manifestly unjust, not
to say absurd. to expect the normal
Iy placed individual to keep his
living expenses within the same
bounds as when the rates were fixed.
This Inconsistency has apparently
never been brought to the attention
of those who make our laws, and in
view of the fact that the new reye-
nue. bill will come up for considera-
ton shortly it appears to me that
this is an appropriate time to agi-
tate the subject of revision of the
exemption rates upward. The
writer's individual effort might have
a slight effect, but an enormous in
huence can be exerted by a concerts
ed effort on the part OF the taxpayer
who are affected by this phase of
the law.
I should like to be able to in
huence all men of moderate income
in this community to write a brief
personal letter to their congressman
and senator. bringing this subject
to their notice. The writer and
thousands of other men will be in
the position of paying income taxes
for the year 1919 on incomes actual
~ expended for the necessities of
life.
