COURSES IN THRIFT
INSTRUCTION.

New bulletins recently prepared
at the request of superintendent of
the departments of education in sew
eral states in this section of the
country, to show how the teaching
of thrift may be correlated with in
struction in other subjects in !. the
elementary grades, have just zen
published, and they are now being
mailed to the city and county super
intendents in this state, as we'll as
to teachers in the summer schools.
Announcement has also been made
that thrift instruction is to be given
In state summer schools as part of
citizenship education. This is con-
sidered important because education
in citizenship implies a knowledge
of values-of spending, of conser-
walton, and one of it's objects must
be to teach the wise use of resources
and the elimination of waste.
The new bulletin was prepared by
Miss Mary G. Shotwell, director of
the Educational Division of the Gov
eminent Savings Organization, fifth
federal reserve district. 1t contains
practical suggestions for co-relating
thrift with such subjects as arith-
metic, civics and language; type
lessons for developing thrift instruc-
ton and thrift photography. Miss
Shotwell is well known in school
circles of this state, where she has
frequently visited.

MUST BE ENFORCED.
I'm answer to an inquiry.)

lin answer to an inquiry
The prohibition amendment is a
permanent part of the federal con-
stitution. No we'll informed person,
whether he be wet or dry, expects it
to be repealed. 1t must, therefore,
be enforced. Failure to enforce
would invite a reign of lawlessness
which would menace orderly govern
ment. Respect for law should not
depend upon the citizens opinion of
the law; it should rest on loyalty to
government. Criminal laws are not
intended primarily for those who
like them; such do not need them.
A criminal law is intended for those
who do not like it-"No thief ever
felt the halter draw the good opin-
ion of the law" Law is the crystal
lization of the public opinion and
public opinion when duly embodied
in law must prevail or popular gov
eminent will become a farce. Turn
ing from general proposition to
particular question, answer your
inquiry by saying that the opinion
rendered by Attorney General Palm
er as he was leaving Office was most
unfortunate; first, because the new
administration should not have
been embarrassed by an important
opinion at such time, which it
must necessarily indorse or repudi-
ate; second, because the opinion is
a misinterpretation of the spirit of
the law, if not of the letter, and en-
courages violation. If the opinion
stands. medical colleges will soon be
established to convert liquor dealers
into tonic doctors or general debil-
ity physicians. While the prohibit
ton law only applies to beverage
liquor, it's enforcement cannot be
evaded by merely changing the name
from drink to dose or by substitute
ing doctor for saloon-keeper. If
the Palmer opinion results in whole
sale evasion of the law, as seems
likely, it will have to be modified by
the new attorney general or remedi-
ed by act of congress. Prohibition
was adopted by deliberate act of the
American people and it can not be
repealed by official opinion.-W. ].
Bryan, in The Commoner.

Creation of a separate and dis
tinct prohibition enforcement unit
in each State with a State director
at it's head forms the basis of the
reorganization of the prohibition
enforcement organization worked
out by Commissioner Blair OF the
Internal Revenue Bureau and Pro-
hibition Commissioner Haynes. The
present administrative districts,
comprising several States, will be
bolished. The reorganization
would til hten up enforcement by
centralizing authority and abolish
ing red tape.

The tax-fraud scandal, which first
showed in Kansas and Missouri, now
has reached into practically all
larger cities of the Eastern States
and in many cities of the Middle and
Central West.
Millions of dollars in revenue
have been lost to the Government,
reports show, through activity OF
the fake tax experts, and taxpayers
themselves have been mulcted out
of millions more by what officials de-
clare to be the slippery methods
adopted by the fakirs.
Commissioner Blair states he
wants to see this type of fakir in
Jail. He will use all his power in
Office to insist on pen" sentences as
a protection for the taxpaying pub
lie. against this form of robbery.
The reports to Commissioner Blair
revealed that tax swindlers have
proved with success in practically
every State. 1t is further revealed
that the activities of the "tax ex-
perts" have been directed from cen
trail offices located in different parts
of the United, States.

War profiteers may be forced to
disgorge sums running as high as
$1,000, 100000 through civil actions
and criminal prosecutions now
planned by the Department of JUS
tice. Comptroller of the Treasury
Warwick's reports showing the
looseness with which disbursing Of
ficers paid out enormous sums with
out adequate check upon claims are
of an astounding character. They
reflect a deplorable condition in the
affairs not only of the Shipping
Board, the War Department, but in
practically every big war agency ex-
banded overnight in the emergency.
These bureaus are shown to have
been victimized in almost unbelieve-
able sums.

The Senate started race with the
House on Monday to outlaw medical
beer. Just after the House Rules
Committee had concluded long
hearing on a proposal to give the
Volstead anti-beer and general pro-
hibition tightening-up measure
right of way Senator Willis, Repub-
ncan, Ohio, introduced special
bill containing the beer and other
uncontroverted sections of the Vol
stead bill, with the hope of having
it passed before the Prohibition
Commissioner promulgates medical
beer regulations under the opinion
handed down by former Attorney
General Palmer.
Senator Willis in statement
said his bill embodied uncontrovert-
ed issues in the Volstead supple
mental prohibition bill now pending
in the House, and added:
1.-THE passage of my bill does not
mean there is no need of the other
provisions in the House bill, but
there is some division of opinion on
this, and l am introducing this bill
in order to give Congress an oppor-
tunity to meet the medical beer stu
alton, which must be taken care of
Immediately if the breweries are not
to open up again. While it is true
that State laws prohibit medical
beer in three-fourths of the States,
still if the breweries open in the
other States it will be harder to en-,
force the law"
