failure and a dangerous breeder of dis
content and contempt for law, and
which conclp les:
I'VE urge that all citizens In every
walk of life demand from their repre-
sentatives and senators in Washington
immediate relief from the unwarranted
restriction contained in the Volstead
act; and we likewise suggest to the
citizenship Of our country the wisdom
and advisability of bearing in mind
the attitude toward this issue of Office
holders and aspirants to Office in com
ing elections in order that there may
be restored 10 the people the lawful
use Of wholesome beer and light wines,
which, under the provisions of the
eighteenth amendment can and should
be rightfully declared as non-intOxicat-
ing beverages"
The executive council asserts 1t
holds that the eighteenth amendment
under reasonable and proper legis-
lative Interpretation would be benefi-
cial to our country and would have the
support Of the great majority Of our
people" But the council says an ex-
haustlve investigation which it has
conducted shows these effects of the
Volstead act:
u. A general disregard of the law
among all classes, including those who
made the law.
so Creation Of thousands of moon
sinners.
50. Creation of an army of bootleg
gers.
~. An amazing increase in the traf-
fic In poisons and deadly concOctions
and drugs.
20. An increased rate OF insanity,
blindness, and crime among the users
Of these connections and drugs.
20. Increase in unemployment, due
to losses of employment by workers in
forty-five industries directly o. indi-
rectly connected with the manufacture
of liquors.
~. Increase In taxes to city, state,
and national governments amounting
to approximately $1,000,0 100000 per
year"

IN TIE preliminary bouts Of the
ministration has scored victories which
lead Senator Lodge and others to pre-
dict certain triumph in the main con-
test over the four-power Pacific pact,
as well as in the other bouts.
Expression of this confidence came
after the senate, on Wednesday, had
ratified the treaty with Japan concern
ing zap This is not properly one of
the Washington conference series of
treaties, but Its acceptance was coz
sidercd necessary before action is
taken on the other Pacific treaties. 1t
puts an end to the dispute between
this country and Japan by recognizing
the japanese mandate over zap and
at the same time securing Americas
cable rights there.
The final vote on the zap pact was
81 TO % and was preceded by the vot-
Ing down Of number of reservations
which certain Democratic senator's
thought necessary to make American
rights on the island entirely secure.
Thirteen Democrats voted for ratifica-
ton, and three Republlcans-Borah.
France and Johnson-against II. Al
though the administration forces said
they were entirely satisfied with the
vote, the "irreconcilables" also pro-
fessed 10 be jubilant. The latter as
serted they had made small effort to
defeat this treaty and that they were
confident they could muster enough
more votes 10 beat the four-power
pact.
!. On motion of Senator Lodge the
senate Immediately took up the four
power treaty aud the indications were
that the debate on that would last sew
eral weeks. As it was reported 10 the
senate by the committee on foreign
relations, # carries hut the one In
n0cuous interpretatiye reservation that
was approved by President Harding

d EPUBLICAN members of the house
IN ways and means committee hav-
ing rejected the sales tax plan for fl
nancing the soldiers bonus, the COM
mittee went on trying to devise other
schemes. with the alternative of adopt
ing bill that contains no financing
feature A subcommittee suggested one
plan which would not involve a heavy
drain on the treasury during the next
two years. This contemplates the elm
nation of a cash bonus. Adjusted
service certificates would be issued
equal to the sum of the adjusted serv-
ice pay of the veteran Isl a day for
domestic service and $1.25 a day for
foreign service, less the $50 bonus paid
at the time of discharge), increased by
40 per cent plus interest thereon for
twenty years at the rate of Az per
cent a year, compounded annually. The
total face value thus would be ap-
proximately 3.3S times the amount Of
cash that a veteran would have re-
ceiyed under the cash feature.
Immediately after the certificate
was received the service man could
obtain from bank an amount equal
to 80 per cent of the total of the adj
iusted service pay. If at the eXpira-
tion of three years the sum thus OBJ
tanned. plus interest had not been
paid by the service man, the bank
could make demand on the federal
treasury for the amount due. The gov
ernment thus would take over and
carry the loan.
Some members feareu the borrow
ings under this plan might affect the
financial situation harmfully. 50 treas
ury experts were called ia 10 advise
he committee on that and other
points. If the scheme is feasible and
goes through the government would
not have to pay any cash for two or
three years except for administrative
purposes.

IN HIS ship subsidy address to con
gress the President took occasion
TO reiterate his approval of the Great
Lakes-St. Lawrence waterway pro-
ject, and that was also the topic for
lively debate before the National
Rivers and Harbors congress In Wash
ington last week. The project was
there championed by Gov. Henry ].
Allen of Kansas and Ii. II. Merrick of
Chicago, and was opposed by Gov.
Nathan Miller Of New York. Allen and
Merrick set forth spiritedly the demand
of the middle west for an adequate out
let to the sea for Its products, and
argued that the proposed waterway
could be financed from the 100000
horsepower to be developed. Governor
Allen said the New York barge canal
was all right so far as 1t went, but
its capacity was not over one-twentieth
Of that demanded by the Is states on

Governor Miller attacked the prof.
ect as impossible of successful COM

protested against the proposed method
of financing it, saying the waterpower
rights of the state of New York should
not be taken to pay the bin.
