LADY ASTOR IS
 FAVORABLE 10
 OUR PROHI LAW
Makes Declaration of Ap- proval Upon Her Return to England-Says the Law is Good.

London, June 6.-Lady Astor as the result of her visit to America is convinced that prohibition is work ing for the good of the country and does not hesitate to tell her wide circle of friends so. She has brought back story quite different from that of other visitors and is able to rcfutc many of the extravagant tales which have beon accepted here oi the deplorable conditions resulting from prohibition in America. On being asked for an opinion of bow prohibition is working Lady Astor said:
 Neither I nor my husband went to the United States and Canada to investigate prohibition, but obvious " the subject was included in our talk with senators, congressman, members of parliament, heads of or ganizations such as the Salvation Army, representatives of the police force, leaders of women movements and representatives of business and labor.
 'Ther opinion is not unanimous. You would not expect it to be on anything in an Anglo-SaXon country. individual experiences often con- flct, but nevertheless a perfectly clear, broad national conclusion may Ia I,,n, nt l1ttS- r.at n have been constantly told Chat the rich get as much liquor as they like if they are willing to pay the price and that society was drinking hard I cannot honestly say that I wit messed this myself But it is certain ly true that the task of the Sal vation Army and of social and child welfare bodies and of churches has been hugely reduced by prohibition The leaders of these organizations told me so quite definitely.
 Net Result Undoubtedly Good.
 When I balance these results, when I set off the uplifting of the poor and struggling, and the saliva tion which prohibition has brought the alleged degradation of some of the rich-well there cannot be any doubt that the net result for the country has been good.
 "I found some resentment against the rich for breaking the law, but the general sentiment seemed to be that it was they and their children land not the poor who were getting the worst of it because of this. The business world is strongly in favor of prohibition because efficiency and savings have been incrc sed. Tho women seem solidly for it because the homes are happier, the men more ambitious and the children better looked after.
 "As to the future, the temperance forces seemed confident, for no polit- ical party advocates a reversal o' prohibition. This proves that most Iof the electors feel that prohibition has been beneficial and uo not be lieve that it has made either the United States or Canada into nations 'of dope fiends any more than the voters of European foreign countries believe that the increase in crime and drugs in France, England, etc.. since the war is due to the absence .of prohibition. The most that the vets are asking for the United States, apparently is a measure to legalize the sale of light wines and beers of the strength of many Eng fish non-alcoholic beverages and even for this policy they do not hone to get more than the first reading vote in Congress and from this vote they do not anticipate victory"

 French people see our best type of American girls-those who are earning their living and making their rlaccs in the world.
 "That is why some time ago a number of friends of France and myself thought of the plan for start ing goodwill elections over the country to select certain girls from each community to- make six weeks tour of France and get in touch with the situation there; then come home and tell their friends
 about what they really saw and

BIRTHS CAUSE IF WAR'
WHEN THEY EXCEED DEATHS WAR IS INEVITABLE, IS AS
 SERTED BY SCIENTISTS

LONDON, Aug. 2.-"As long as births exceed deaths just so long will war be inevitable in the long run; for grim necessity will compel men to fight for food or die of. starvation" de clares Herbert M. Mogoun, of Cam bridge, Mass, in an address to the h. ternational Birth Con,ro1 Congress in session here.
 Calculating that the world popula- tion doubles every fifty years he said that starting with a single human pair today in two thousand years there would be at least 2,04S,009 900, 900 peo- pie on earth. The only reason that there has not been such an increase in the past he claimed, were war, pes thence, famine and earthquake.
 And you would blithely abolish war and pestilence, leaving to earthquakes and famine the task vr keeping the earth can feed" he said. That means famine for all mankind, unless births are kept on par with deaths by tho means of birth control. Without fl you cannot abolish war or banish dis ease without producing something far worse"
 That natural selection, the tendency of the more fit to survive, can be speeded up so as to produce a better race, was emphasiztd by P. w. Whit ing, research associate professor of eugenics, of Iowa State university, in outlining recent advances in genetics before birth control advocates.
 Were it possible" he said, "for all freaks and abnormalities which are produced to survive and procreate equally with the best there would be very rapid racial deterioration. While natural selection may be slow to effect improvement it is all impoT- tant in preventing extreme degener- acy. Conscious. artificial selection, on the other hand, can very rapidly at tain the desired end.
 Various domestic animals and plants have been obtained in short l time compared to that required by un- conscious nature.

er control law, it was written by Re.
publicans, introduced by Republicans
and passed by Republican ~majorities.
One of the immediate and urgent
needs of the farming communities was
credit to tide them over their imme-
date crisis. In order to furnish this
credit the Republican Congress amend
ed the War Finance Corporation Act
sc as to enable that organization to
have a revolving fund of $1,000, 600.
900 to be used exclusively in making
loans to livestock and agricultural in
terests. Since that body began func-
tioning under its newly acquired pow
ers it has been loaning money to the
agricultural and livestock interests OF
the United States at a rate in excess
of 1000, 600 a day.
One of the earliest acts of this Con-
gress was the appropriation of $1,000
900 to be used in the purchase of seed
for the drought-stricken farmers of the
northwest. Since that time legislation
and appropriations have been made to
assist drought-stricken farmers in
other sections of the country, and also
to relieve the settlers upon reclama.
ton and irrigation projects.
Still another act of this Congress
was the increase of the available cap
ital of the Farm Loan Banks in the
sun of $25, 900. 900, giving the Farm
Loan Banks a total revolving fund of
$50, 900, 900. This bill was written bv
Republicans, introduced by Republic
cans and passed by Republican major
tiles in both branches of Congress.
Modern methods in the commercial
world have demonstrated the neces-
sity of the farmers being permitted to
sell his crops under a cooperative sys.
TEN, and that this might be done legal
ly and without Interference or irrita
ton, the present Congress enacted the
Cooperative Marketing Bill. This is
another bill written by Republicans,
introduced in both branches of Con-
gress by Republicans and passed by
Republican majorities.
Honorable Henry c. Wallace, Secre-
tary of Agriculture, truly summed it
up when he said.
"Never in the same length of time
did Congress give more serious atten-
ton to farm needs. All of the legisla-
| ton is of a constructive character and
will be more helpful than is no.
