leading drys OF the nation are aghast
over the apparent difficulties which are

Mr.. Bryan.
These vets would transfer custody
OF the Constitution from the United

thizers and supporters of the wet cause.
There is much danger to prohibition
in this tendency. but 1t will fail in the
end. All moves up to this time to upset
the dry laws on the ground of their un-
constitutionality have utterly failed. All
such efforts are doomed to meet defeat
because there is no sound basis for
them.
"The bootlegger and the rum runner
would upset all law. and the American
people are not yet ready to go that far"
Mr.. Bryan continued. These Illicit
traffickers in rum are getting a great
amount of help from some of the en-
authority but wet in principle. This con-

BEER BILL PIGEONHOLED
FOR TREATY AND TAXES
Radical Drys in Senate Are Forced to Drop Pet Meas
ure Until More Important Legislation Is Disposed
Of-Victory Is Certain Then, Says Sterling.

Sterling "The sentiment OF the Senate
is Overwhelmingly in favor OF adoption
or the report but as everybody knows a
hnal vote has been prevented by the
tactics of not exceeding half dozen
Senators who are opposed TO the report
and claim the so-called Stanley amend
ment should nave been agreed to by the
conference.
There will be some further delay in
the consideration of the report on ac-
count of the peace treaties laid before
the Senate this morning and perhaps
also an account of thu tax BILL notice OF
the taking up of which next Monday
was given last Thursday by the chair
man of the Finance Committee.
These latter are most important
measures. The country is vitality inter
ested In them. and the welfare of the
country depends to some exteut at least
on the early ratification of these treaties
and on the enactment of revenue law.
With the treaties and the tax bill out OF
the way the conference report on the
anti-beer bill will be taken up and
pushed to an early vote. Leaders or

who are heart and soul for prohibition

and its purposes"
Mr.. Bryans sharp rap at conditions
which he blames on some of the turns
in political manRuvring appeared to
have reference To recent squabbles over
the filling OF jobs Of State prohibition
directors.
Prohibition will not be the success
that its leaders planned until the punish
ment for violations Is made more severe,
he said.
Jail sentences instead of fines would
produce a stricter regard for the law
and remove much of the present laxity
both in enforcement and law observance.
he said. He suggested that the extent
or punishment should be arranged on 4
progressive scale. 1t was his idea that
when a Volstead law offender whose
crime Is severe enough to warrant a jail
sentence comes up the next time for
sentence his punishment should be
doubled.

necessitates equality and that as equal
ity is impossible with the feeble minded
they can never have true liberty. Sc
gregation Is the kindest course to adopt,
especially when the natural protectors
of the afflicted have disappeared. The
creation Of the necessary accommoda-
tions would create difficulty. but IL
would be a national economy in the
long run.
"Habitual criminals, like mental de-
fectives. should not be allowed to repro
duce. They have no good qualities to
recommend them and the only courage
which they show is that needed to face
disgrace and Imprisonment. Merely TO
reduce the fertility of this class would
be more beneficial from the racial point
of view than to prohibit parenthood alb
solutely in the case of a small number
of persons convicted of grave crime.
Even those who do not believe in
heredity may be inclined to believe that
segregation is justifiable after many
convictions. We should endeavor to deal
in the same way with the wastrel, the
drunkard and the work-shy as members
of class rather than individuals"
DR.. Lucien March, chief Government
statistcian of France. followed Major
Darwin on the lecture platform and de-
livered a paper on the effect of the war
on population in France. On account OF
the mortality among young men in the
war, he said. the country by 1885 will
have only about a sixth of those citizens
whose work must furnish the chief
sources of income of the nation, which
will be dependent on foreign workers.
