WANTS WOOD
ALCOHOL LAW
COMMISSIONER ROPER SAYS
WOOD ALCOHOL NOT A
BEVERAGE.
WOULD REGULATE LAW
CAUSING MUCH
ALARM.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Washington, Jan. 1--Legislation sub
jecting the manufacture and sale Of
wood alcohol to the same restrictions
as grain alcohol will be recommended
to Congress as a result of the many
fatalities from the use of wood alco-
hol as a beverage, Commissioner Roper
Of the bureau of internal revenue has
announced. Officials have in mind
the placing of heavy tax on the man
ufacture and sale of wood alcohol, and
requiring permits by all persons en-
gagged in the traffic. This would pro-
vide the government with definite
record of the movement of wood alco-
hol from manufacturer to consumer,
and would make possible immediate
action by the authorities in case of vio-
lation of regulations.
'.It is obvious" Commissioner Roper
said, "that wood alcohol is in no sense
either the prohibition amendment or
the internal revenue laws, nor can 1t
be considered narcotic under the pro-
visions of the Harrison law. 1t is
known to be a deadly poison, and
should be treated as such. In most of
the states, If not all, wood alcohol is
recognized as poison, and stringent
laws have been passed regulating Its
use and safeguarding the public from
its abuse No such law exists, how
ever for the use of federal authori-
ties"

New York.-Two score federal

tracts and furniture polish were inves-
tigated on a wholesale basis to mail

fort to prevent recurrence of Christ

organization has nursed the sick, fed
the starving, clothed the naked, shelter

conducted a relentless fight against
typhus, cholera and other terrible dis
eases. So today millions of men and
women In that resurrected nation
speak IN grateful appreciation Of .sThe
Greatest Mother In the World"
Nearly 200 American Red Cross
workers are now engaged in relief ac-

FIRST AID TRAINING
TO men AND WOMEN
American Red Cross Is Teaching
Hundreds of Thousands Life
Saving Methods.

The purpose of instruction in First
Aid to the injured offered by the Amer
lean Red Cross Is to train men and
women to administer First Aid treat
ment promptly and intelligentIy when
emergencies demand t. First Aid
treatment Is not intended to take the
place of physicians service. A sur
geon should always be summoned as
a precautionary measure where there
IL an injury of any consequence, but
when one canpot be secured few min
utes' delay may mean fatality. In
such case person trained In First
Aid Is Invaluable not only to the In
dividual, but through him to the COM
munity In which he lives
There is perhaps no way of ascer-
tanning the number of deaths or seri-
Gus disablements which result from
lack of proper safeguards or prompt
emergency treatment. 1t is safe to as
sert they number thousands daily
There can be no doubt that the appli-
cation of First Aid methods to each
case would UNNECESSARILY tighten the
country's toll Of suffering and death.
The dissemination Of First Aid train
ing and information has already pro-
duced farreaching and beneficial In
f1uence In the prevention Of accidents
on railroads, In mines and in great in
dustrial concerns
The benefit of widespread knowI-
edge of First Aid in the event Of a
great disaster, such as train wreck,
an explosion, an earthquake, etc, Is
obvious. Laynen who have had First
Aid training can render efficient as
sistance. Many lives may depend upon
such emergency care.
Red Cross First Aid work includes
III the formation and conduct, through
Red Cross chapters. OF classes for In
struction In accident prevention and
First Aid to the injured among men
and women in all communities and in
every industry (2l the Introduction Of
courses Of instruction IN high schools

THE MONROE DOCTRINE
AS VIEWED IN ARGENTINA

Buenos Aires, Aug. 24.-The Mon
roe doctrine is not a doctrine Of "Am-
erica for the Americans" but of Am
erica for the, North Americans, de-
cIared DR.. Lueio d. Moreno Quintana,
an Argentine lawyer and a grandson
of a former president Of the Argen-
tina IN an address recently before the
law students of the University of
Buenos Aires in which he attacked
the proposal made by President Brum
of Aruguay last April for the forma-
ton Of an American League"
President BRUINS idea that the
league should be based on a declara-
ton by all Latin-American countries
similar to the Monroe doctrine which
would thus place them on footing
Of equality with the United States in
maintaining that doctrine. was assert
ed by DR.. Quintana to be dangerous
one for Latin-America. He told the
students that the danger lay in
North American Imperialism, for
the Monroe doctrine was an imperial
istic doctrine solely intended to main
Tam aNOfLn american negem0ny over
the rest of the continent.
DR.. Quintana contended that the
safety of Latin-American countries
law in the formation Of a league ex-
IcIusively among themselves, Latin
American league of countries of the
same origin, analogous customs, SIM
liar language and processing the
same ideals and aspirations. It should
be formed with the end of uniting
their common interests and present
ing defensive bloc against North
american Imperialism and against
any European pretensions," though
he believed the latter would be very
remote.

WHY FOREIGN MONEY IS SO
nvyEhD

Primarily foreign money Is cheap
because 1t is plentiful, because 1t Is an
inflated currency, because Europe has
puIyerised, SO to speak, too much OF
its war Indebtedness into non-interest-
bearing promises to pay with money
attributes. Then there are other fea-
lures In present conditions which az
prayate rather than help in the ex-
change Of commodities between this
country and Europe. rt
Po commence with the Allied nations
Of Eul ope for nearly five years were
not producing. goods for export; but,
on the contrary. were buying goods
in this country and paying for them
out Of their accumulated capital. Amer
lea was buying little in those coun-
tries during the war, and this con-
tition did not end when the war end
ed. There has been a postwar SLOW
ness in getting back to work IN france
and England, if not in all European
countries. The slownesss OF TINS
cudntry in ratifying the peace treaty
is said to be one of the causes for TINS
undesirable condition, In any event
the Allies have comparatively little to
IN M y ~ & \ -
sell to America, and are in dire need OF
much that America has to sell to Eu-
rope. lit follows from this condition
that America has Iittiesuse for sfor 4
eign money, and Europe has q tren asaa
dous need for dollars to pay her bills
in this country. It is the old law OF
supply and demand, that which every
body is calling for goes up; that which
few want goes down.

.AN oUTBREAK on .Ec0NOMY..

1t may be fairly presumed that when
the Chief of Engineers, United States
Army, estimated the cost of improving
and maintaining the nations rivers
and harbors for the next fiscal year,
his figures represented the fruits of
careful consideration. The sum
which was recommended to Congress
for these purposes $42, S41, 562-was
but $9,000C00 larger than that made
available by the last previous Congress
for similar work during the year.
In paniky attempt to "economize,"
the Republican Congress has cut the
estimate of the Chief of Engineers
from $42,OO0.000 to 12,0O0,000 With
this latter sum the Engineers Depart
ment of the Army is expected to con-
tinue the betterments and upkeep for
which about three times as much was
appropriated for 1890.
The country will welcome economies
in appropriations and government ex-
penditures, but it will not accept hap
hazard reductions as genuine economy.
especially when great public works Of
benefit to the whole nation are made
to suffer There will be a justifiable
suspicion that the purpos of this policy
is not regard for the welfare of the
taxpayers but the making of a specious
political record for use in the next
campaign.
This Republican concern for econ
omy comes a little too late to merit
the appreciation it is intended to win.
There were numerous opportunities in
the special session of Congress to save
both time and money by restoring
peace, by making final, satisfactory
disposition of the railroads, by adjust
ing the tax laws to the new condition.
in word, by doing most of the work
with which the regular session is now
engaged with no prospect of complet-
ing it in reasonable or. seasonable
fashion.

Congress offers for the improvement

THE SENATE MAJoRITY.s DUTY

Republican leaders and organs have
been vociferous for months on the the-
sis that as their party controlled the
United States Senate it's representa-
tives in each branch Of Congress had a
right to determine what sort of quali-
fications should be made to this coun-
try's acceptance of the treaty with Ger
many II these authorities were cor
rect in this contention, they are wrong
now in attempting to shift or disclaim
responsibility for some action looking
to a disposition Of the treaty and q
return to peace.
With the right for which the Repub-
lican majority contended there went
also duties and obligations. They are
bound by their own logic as well as by
their preponderance in the Senate to
undertake ratification. They cannot
excuse their own inaction by pretend
ing that others decline to cooperate.
A majority which packed the For
eign Relations Committee. which dis
turbed all the patronage in the Sena-
torial organization, which has passed
partisan measures in the face OF OPP
position, can hardly expect the people
to believe It is now unable to adopt
some programme Of ratification.
1t is true that a faction of this ma
jority dictated the course Of hostility
to which it attempted to commit all re-
publican Senators. It is conceded
that Mr.. Lodges personal spites and
piques rather than the best interests
of the country or Of the Republican
party inspired and shaped the Senate
majority's course with reference to the
treaty Of peace and the League of Ma
tons. But this only emphasizes the
present duty Of that Majority to ac-
knowledge past mistakes, reject UNI
worthy leadership and to substitute
patriotic motives for partisan ma
neuvering in an effort to end the war
and put this country on parity with
the other late enemies of Germany in
the enjoyment of peace.
The Senate is responsible for the
ratification Of the treaty. The Re-
publican majority, with its dominance
of all the machinery of the Senate,
is primarily and especially account
able for any failure to bring the ma
ton from a state of war to state of
peace.
