18TH AMENDMENT ISHERE TOSTAY,
 SAYS DR. STUART
Minister Scores Liquor Traf- fic-DiScusSes It's Effect. Lady AsQuith Criticised
 by Methodist Pastor

Be not deceived. the Eighteenth Amendment will not go out of the Consultation of this nation until God goes out of this nation. And any one who will override the state laws, the national laws, the Constitution, and trample on the flag of this nation, for the sake of a bottle of hind tiger liquor. is unfit to be an Amer ican citizen"
 Applause greeted this statement of -Dr. George R. Stuart, pastor of the First Methodist church, towards the close of his morning sermon. during which he had bitterly scored the H. auor traffic and cited various medical and other authorities in support of the points brought out in his sermon, as to the effect of liquor on men and women ard children.
 Taking as his text, the warning of the prophet Habbakuk, Woe unto him that giveth his neighbor drink. that putteth thy bottle to his lips, that causes him to show his naked ness" Dr. Stuart pointed out that, although these prophecies were made 500 years before Christ was born, when they did not know much about alcohol and when chemists had not yet made the discoveries of today, yet these men prophesied about things which they had no knoweldge of. with absolute accuracy
 Scores Lady Asquith
 T challenge you to show me a single prohpecy in this Book that has f,.If ha fnv c fulfillmeHt has come" said pr. Stuart, and in this text also every prophecy regarding the consequence of strong drink is being fulfilled in this day right among us. It applies to all woe unto Africa, woe unto France woe unto Germany that giveth her neighbor drink, woe unto John Smith that giveth his neighbor drink. There is a curse on every family that gives another a drink, and if there is none yet, probably some drunkard will en- ter it and bring the cures with him.
 Dr. Stuart bitterly scored Lady Asquith, who, he said, after only one weeks visit in this country, under took to criticize the prohibition laws and their effect, and he also called attention to the study of psychology concerning the three sections of the brain and give scientific analysis of the effect of alcohol on the various sections Quoting authorities as pr. Kelley. the great surgeon at Johns Hopkins Institute, that alcohol has nothing to do with treatment of dis eases and ought to be eliminated" as we'll as the Mayo Brothers, who de- clare alcohol has no place in med icine" Dr. Stuart also called at tention to the last issue of a standard work on medicine which eliminates alcohol entirely for the treatment of diseases. He answered the demand for so-called personal liberty" by saying, We would not mind your having all the liberty you want, il you did not dump the deformed idiotic. criminal. weak minded, blind deaf and dumb and epiliptic children en society. to take care of. More than 50 per cent of these are actual ly due to alcohol. Alcohol is the greatest mental depreciator in the world, fills our insane asylums. or phan asyIums. prisons, public insti- tutions and does more mental de- struction than all other agencies combined"

Demand for Steel
 Shows But Slight
 Improvement So Far
By Associated Press

New York, February 1j.--A further slight improvement was apparent in the demand for steel products during the week, although on the whole the buying was again of a sporadic character. Competition was very keen and the tone of the market was barely steady. as producers were in clined to shade prices to effect sales. Railroad requirements furnished a sustaining factor, while a feature in the export situation was a sale of 10000 tons of rails to Japan. Pig iron was steady, with fairly good demand in scattered way. and the trade was anticipating the placing of the contract for the vehicular tunnel under the Hudson river.
 Copper was unsettled. Owing to continued absence of any general demand tfere has been further price cutting by second hands and small producers. Such interests have ac- cepted orders at 13hc delivered for electrolytic and it is reported that few small lots have been sold for spot or prompt shipment at the 13- cent basis. The larger producers have not fully met this decline, but the second quarter at 13Hc- A little more inquiry has developed at the lower prices for both domestic con sumption and export
 Tin has been lower owing to cheap import offers of Banca tin, and the continued sag in London, where sell ing has been heavy on account of big arrivals.
 Lead is unchanged. Large produc- CTS are fully booked for February and we'll into March.
 Zinc has been a little firmer, as producers are not offering freely at present levels and demand is about equal to offerings. There has been some inquiry from Japan.
 Antimony continues quiet. Con sumers appear we'll supplied. how ever, and-stocks are ample
