DEALING N REER

Word comes from Washington to the effect that the department of jus tiee had begun plans for the prosecu- don of all persons who have sold beer since the passage of the. VoIstead act which has recently been declared by the supreme court of the United States to be constitutional. The law was passed October 2s so that it must be realized that the department has some business ahead of it if it is go- ing to collect evidence at this time on which to proceed against those whc have violated the law or even if fl has previously obtained the evidence it is now going to round up the viola tors.
 Because there was slight action taken under wartime prohibition pre- vious 10 the passage of the Volstea6 enforcement act the impression haG no doubt been gained by many tha nothing more would be done unde1 that law until constitutional prohi- bitton became effective. That ther' has been considerable disrespect foi the jaw will cause no surprise and thu fact that the department is preparing 20 FEecSt0 dSdInSE VloIdtorS snow that there is work to be done, and il view of the fact that those who deal in. beer after the law was passed lnev they were taking chances it is to b' expected that those who have beer violating he law will be looking fo a visit from the federal authorities They I.'eceG too great reliance in tn, belief that the court would permit tn, esle of 2.75 per cent. beer ins1eaa e

HE GERMAN MARSHES

For a time there were indications that the German warships that were sunk in Scapa- Flow would be raised and distributed among the allies, but such came from the belief that the ex pense would not be prohiDitive. In- vestigations have been made and fol- lowing a careful estimate of the cost of bringing the warslrips to the sur face and reftting them the idea has been abandoned and the announce nnent made that they will be blown up. This disposes of the salvage oper- ations and is of course in keeping with the claim that has been persistently made to the effect that the ships could not be readily adapted for use in the navies of other countries
 Thus win end many of the war ships that were the pride of the Ger man navy. They will remain on the sea bottom where they were sent by their officers and crews and where the British have repeatedly urged thai they be sent, though at different spot. The Germans succeeded in scut- ting their own ships even though i was done while they were being helt l in trust and thereby not only got th' honor of disposing Of them but pre-, vented the allies from getting any benefit therefrom- either by making such use as they could of them or dis posing of them as junk.
 1 Though it ought not to have beer such a tremendous task, in view o the poor estimate placed on them al
 units of other nayies blowing up tn ships will prevent any possibility. 0 wrangle over their disposition. Al are being treated alike by their de
 struction but the injustice of such method would have been cause fo continued remonstrance could the,
 have been saIvaged for a reasonabl
 amount Millions upon millions in
 vested in the warships have bee
 thrown away. That is expected in tn
 case of warships that rapidly de
 crease in value after a certain perio
 but the German ships were not ol
 ones and the disposition to deliberate ly waste what could be utilized other
 wise called forth a righteous pretes
 as long as the saving was feasible.

MANEUVERNG JIM

 Dixy Barker as an aceomplice :" commented the older senior apprecia- lively. sDixy's the best looHng--"
 "Of courseI' agreed the pretty sen for in some surprise. If I had to go around with somebody else besides Jim I might as well enjoy myself while doing it. mightn't I? I thought when Jim met Dixy and myself while strolling I would find him waiting for me with battle in his eye when got home But I didn't. He didn't seem to mind at all and the next time met him he told me for half an hour straight all about what a dandy chap Dixy was. I let Dixy take me to a dance and instead of, sulking in a corner what did Jim do but come right up and take three dances quite happily, tell me I was looking peachy and have perfectly good time all ev- ening.
 But I kept it up. To. tell the truth, it wasn't at all hard to keep it up either Dixy was so agreeable about being my little playmate that I didn't have to work at all. He was always right there. And Jim trotted around with Evelyn and was just as nice as ever when he met and never uttered d WOTQ prOteSI uulity really 1 Wa furious at him. Even if he didn't mind my actiens,it wasn't polite of him not to act as though he did When a mans been devoted to a girl he hasn't any right to let himself be discarded without putting up a fight, has he Oh why did you ever recommend soch a foolish and ridiculous f1irta- tion and to get up one myself? It doesn't work!"
 The older senior laughed
 ''Fine!" she said enthusiastically T told Jim to try it when he came moaning to me about the way you were going on with Dixy-and he's been most successful. I should say Go and behave yourself and let the fascinating Dixy make eyes at some body else-Evelyn for instance anC hang onto Jim!'
 "I suppose I ought to be mad a you" the pretty senior said in sub dued tones after she had thought i over, And so Jim actually was jeal ous of me after all! But he needn' think for one second that I was in tn least jealous of him. The idea, D, you suppose if I walk across the cam pus at this time I'll be apt to mee him ?"-Exchange

pEIRoIT,s PRoPosIrIoN.

Not so long ago interest was aroused in the possibilities Of gasolene operated street cars because of the reduction in operation costs thSt would be permitted. It will now be increased by the action which has heen taken by the mayor of Detroit for years an automobile builder, in asking the common council of that city to place a proposal for a bond is- sue of s15,000000 before the people in April for the purpose of constructing 3 municipally owned and operated street railway system with 100 miles of new tracks and to be ready for op- eration in two years.
 In connection with the proposition 1t is understood that the plan is, to use cars operated by gasolene en, zines which cars could be acquired a about half the cost of the regular street cars and there would be ren- dered unnecessary the power plants and the electrical equipment now z large item in connection with sucf transportation lines.
 Detroit has been as much disturbed over it's trolley service as have other cities including Toledo. Whether i can render service cheaper than is be ing provided and serve the people bet ter under municipal ownership and operation is something for the futur, to reveal if the people are willing tC try it, but from the intimations i would appear that the gasolene car i looked upon as a success to the ex tent that it can be figured upon fo use on such line with it's decrease, costs within two years, which woult be the time required to build the line projected.
 In view of the conditions surround ing the electric railways today tn gasolene car on rails may play most important part if it can be dem onstrated that they will meet require ments and prove efficient and safe il the handling of the travelling public.

AMEalcAns IN MEXICO.

Two more Americans have been killed by Mexicans. Perhaps there ought not to be any surprise over such an announcement and possibly we should have become reconciled to such affairs long ago. It is appar- snt nevertheless that regardless of she protests and demands that have been made to the government at Mex leo City the life of an American in the republic to the south is getting less and less valuable and Carranza is do- ing nothing whatever to change the situation except to make it worse.
 During the present administration at Washington something like 500 Americans have been killed in Mexico and since 1917 there have been 19 killed in the Tampico oil district These two latest deaths come at a time when little or no satisfaction has been received from Carranza relative to the shooting of other Americans while engaged in their regular work when the Jenkins case is far from set tied and when according to one mem Der of a family that had been carried of by Mexican bandits the United States government is looked upon as a bluff.
 Under such conditions it seems ut terly useless for this country to be urging the Mexican government tc take every possible step to bring about the capture and punishment ot the murdefers. Mexico is not putting forth it's best efforts to safeguart Americans or to punish those who are murdering them. It doesn't in fac appear to be inclined that way.
 It is to be realized that subjects O. other nations can be killed in coun. tEv without the government thereo Being responsible but 1t is to be ex- =pected that it will do it's utmost tc prevent frequent repetitions thereo and 10 bring those guilty to justice Mexico does not respond in that di. rection. however and the worst of i is that regardless of the impotency O the Carranza government it does no appear to be inclined to change tn, conditions.

HELPING EUROPE.

There can be no. quarrel with Her
 bert Hoover when he declares that , "the world needs to get back to work and to business" That is a need that
 exists not in few but all countries. We have been through long period during which there has been a dispo- sition toglook to the other fellow for help. That may not have entirely
 passed but, it is of the greatest i'm portance nevertheless that there should be a buckling down to activity that will change existing conditions and start them in the right direction
 just as rapidly as possible. Some can do this quicker than others. and there will be some inclination to await the aid of others even in doing this, but it will be gross mistake to let it become the chief dependence upon which reconstruction is under
 taken. =
 MT Hoover is opposed to. the idea of drawing on the treasury of this country for further loans to European nations and points to the fact that our taxes are 500 per cent over pre- vious rates. He believes that there should be an early ratification of peace and that ordinary business pro-
 cesses, should be allowed to handle the problems confronted. He recognizes the handicaps faced in Europe, to the extent that he gives approval to the idea of deferring interest payments on
 the loans already made and he de- c1ares that there is need of helping [ out the bread supply of certain cen- ters of population in Europe but apr
 plying in all to less than five per cent.
 of Europe's total population.
 Instead of this country being ex- pected to do it all MT. Hoover eon-
 siders we will be doing our share if
 we furnish bread supplies through
 government credit in addition to busi- ness credits, and maintains that Eu-
 ropean nations which have gotter
 rich out of the war should do theil
 part. MT. Hoover's view is one that will make it's appeal and certainly cannot be disregarded..
