RELIGION AND DRUNKENNESS
BY DR.. Frank Crane

With the man who gets drunk SYM
pathiZe, though I was never drunk in my
life But I know what he wants. 1t is that
elevation above the pettiness, cheapness, and
commences of the daily grind. = 1t is the
time when the old clock strikes thirteen. 1t
is the moment of let go and don't care.
For most of us how cramped life is! There
are moods when we hate the bars of COM
monplace that hem in. We loathe the
dining room furniture and hall carpet. We
appreciate Mary McLanes outbreak Of fury
against that row Of toothbrushes in the bath
room. We are tired of Bill Stubs and his
profanity; and just as bored with Deacon
Chadband and his side whiskers.a We long
to strip Off our responsibility as a garment
and go in swimming with bad boys. We re-
volt at clothes, with Greek passion for
nudity. We would rather fight than eat.
This is the soul-state that drives men to
alcohol. The only salvation for us who have
these spells is to find some other form OF
intoxication. Blessed is the man who can
get drunk politics, poetry, romance, fish
ing, hunting, problems, religion. No rel1g-
ion can permanently appeal to the race I'M
less it have this strange power OF inebria>
ton. The apostles on the day OF Pentecost
were accused of being full of wine; then
Peter stood up and said: ~. T..
aye men of Judea, these men are not
drunken, as we suppose; but this IS tnat
which was spoken by the prophet Joel; And
WV ~~NS $500 $500
God, will pour out My spirit upon all flesh;
and your sons and your daughters shall
prophesy, and your young men shall see Wis
ions, and your old men dream dreams"
All through the ages, from the Hebrew
prophets, the speaking with tongues" in
apostolic days, and the ecstasies of Francis
Of Assist and Catherine of Siena, to the
! "high jumpers and shouting Methodists and
negro camp meetings of our times, this slim
u1ating, quickening function has inhered in
religion. .,-< ~:
It is present also in heather religions, in
the Greek revel, the oriental frenzy, the Ber-
serker rage, the Indian dance
Whoever cuts the tonic, intoxicant quality
| out of religion has cut out its heart.
We may need morality but we don't want
it. We want high life. We want to dream
dreams and see visions and prophesy.
And the kind of religion that will ulti-
mately prevail will provide for. an intoxica-
| ton with righteousness. 1t will be flame,
but not of sensuaiity, as the Greek, nor
blood lust, as the Aztec, but will be the rails
| ing of kindness, justice, love, altruism and
| hope to white heat. -
| It will be the clean fire of the Infinite.
Ever the highest cry of the soul is: ''My
| cup runneth Overt" frv

Some Salient Factors In
Our FOREIGN Trade

vt is significant and cheering that more
than fifty per cent of our imports and
more than forty-four per cent Oh our
exports are being carried in American YES
sells. A few years ago nearly all our over
seas commerce was dependent on foreign
bottoms-a condition that threatened divers
interests with disaster in the early stages or
the world war; when the European carriers
who had been serving us diverted millions
of tons of shipping to military purposes.
Under the stimulus of sharp necessity, the
growth of our merchant marine has been
phenomenal, and important beyond measure.
Without the facilities thus afforded, we
should be hopelessly disadvantaged in the
keen trade contest upon which the world is
now launching; and unless we continue de-
veloping them, along with selling and bank
ing facilities, we shall scarcely hold our own
in foreign markets. AS abnormal war condi-
lions subside, the unexampled excess of ex-
ports over imports which has marked our
trade records of late years must decline
The downward trend is already apparent
favorable balance of more than -FOUR Dillon
dollars in 1919 having fallen to approx
mately three billion for the latest hscal year.
Authorities point out, moreover, tnat IL IL
were not for extraordinary sales to Europe
which necessarily will decrease as productlon
there grows back to normal, our imports
now would be much in excess OF our exports.
A survey by the Guaranty Trust Company
three other grand divisions-South America
Asia and Africa-the United States bought
products to the value of a million dollars
more than it sold to those markets, and our
purchases were of commodities which we
shall need in constantly increasing amounts
in the future" Especially significant is the
fact that in the last fiscal year we imported
UPWARDS of one and quarter billion oollafs
worth of food commodities, including Vege-
tables. fruits, nuts, breadstuffs, coHee anu
tea. At the same time, it was agricultural
product that made up the chief item IN our
more than eight billion dollars worm Oh
.exnorts-food $1,9S4,414,684; and raw cot
ton. s1.331,566,797. (These figures, II
should be said are for eleven months.) Hvl-
IDENTIFY it is upon the productiveness OF the
farms that our trade balance, with It's
weighty bearing on the nations prosperity
largely depends.
Evidently, too, there must be resourcerul
and -diligent effort on the part Of our mer-
camille and industrial exporters, II American
interests are to be maintained in the hlgn
tide of competition now beginning to swell.
Were they dependent, as aforetime, upon for
eign bottoms for carrying their merchandise
they would be sorely handicapped. But with
a goodly and growing merchant marine un-
der their own nations flag, they have one
of the chief instruments of power and chief
inspirers of confidence.

Sov;et;;s,,, as Seen By Friend

~ ERTRAND RUSSELL, the renowned
n English Radical, went to see Soviet
Russia, not as a hostile critic but as
warm friend to Communism. On his return
after extensive observation, he reports the
Bolshevist system as internally aristocratlc
and externally militant, the Communists die
tatorial, lacking in consideration for the
common people, such as their servants
whom they overwork. Plutocracy and priv
lege are in evidence from the largest to
the smallest matters. "Only persons of some
political Importance can obtain motor cars
or telephones, permits for railway journeys
or for going to theaters, or permits to buy
goods at Soviet stores at prices about one
iftieth Of what they are in open market"
Some six hundred thousand disciples Of
Lenine are ruling one hundred and twenty
million Russians, while the six hundred
thousand themselves under the sway Of
despotic circles and cliques. eff the Boil
sheviki, remain in power" Mr.. Russell pre-
diets, "their Communism will fade and they
will increasingly resemble any other Asiatic
government" Lenine admitted that the
peasants ''are against u.s.; and from the
generously fair report we learn that:
No conceivable system of free cleo
lions would give majorities to the Com
munists in either town or country. Va
rious methods are therefore adopted to
give victory to Government candidates.
In the first place the voting is done by
show of hands, so that all who vote
against the Government are marked
men. No candidate not Commun-
list can have any printing done. He
cannot address any meeting because all
halls belong to the State. The whole
press is of course, official. No indie
pendent daily is permitted.
Such Is the liberty of Bolshe1ism, which
Trotzky now propheses will dominate all
Europe within a year. Such are the virtues
of the Red creed that hopes to convert the

URGE SOLDIERS BACK TO FAEM

What has become of the American
Youths who left homes and farms IN
cities and in the country district
when the call to arms came, and Who'
though not reported killed Or miss
ing. have failed to return TO thelr
homes? This is the question that the
Salvation Army is being called upon
to solve almost daily in every section
of this country.
If statistics issued by government
dena rtnents at Washington are to be
believed. less than per cent of the
bovs who left farms in America 10
enter the war have returned again to
the soil. Of course the majority OF
these Youths have returned safely 10
this country, but the lure OF the pig
cities has proved too attractive to
them. Thousands of farmers, trou-
bIed over the present situation with
farm help almost impossible to OBJ
tain. have turned to the Salvation
The Salvation Army, in so far as 1t
can do so, is urging the return OF
men to the farms. This is being done
through the various soldier CUPS ana
hotels which are still being mann
tanned at army posts and demoblllza-
ton points, and also through its close
associations with many men VINO
have been discharged from the serv-
ice but have not yet returned 10 thelr
homes. -
With the formation of county ad-
visorv boards throughout each coun-
~ in the states, the Salvation Army
IS leaving no stones unturned to 10
cate these men and to do all in its
power to induce them to return to
their former hOmeS.-HouSton Post.
