British Drinking More Whisky,

Consumption Of wine In the British
Isles. to increase the difficulties Of the

what It was in 1919. Hotels and res
tsurants complain Of the slump, and
wine lists nowadays contain only the
most popular brands, and these are
called for only sparingly.
The troubles Of the vine brokers'
however, do NOT extend TO the whisky
manufacturers. Despite the loss Of a
considerable export trade 10 the United
States, the dlstillenes have increased
their output and ready market awaits
the product. In many Of the more

LONDON, Nov. iS.--London markets
have been flooded recently By large
shipments Of ehampagnes and wines
from France and Spain, which, how
ever. find no ready sale here. The
wine shops Of England already are
overstoeked With prc-Tar yintages.
Most Of these stocks were purchased
during the wa or just after, and at
high prices, with the result that the
dealers are unwilling TO lose their
profit IN order to get rid Of the stocks.

BERLIN. Dec. 2 (By The Associated

800 to 1000 young teachers would be

Birds Fountain To Be
Naturalist's Memorial
Londoners Plan Unusual Trib-
ute TO W. II. Hudson, Friend
of Feathered Bipeds

LONDON, Dec. . (By The Assoelst-
ed Press).--A htting memorial 10 the
late ". II. Hudson, British naturalist,
who was sometimes known as Eng
lands John Burroughs, will probably
be erected In the form Of a statuesque
drinking fountain for birds. Plans for
the memorial we're made at q meeting
last week Of q committee Of promi-
nent Londoners who were admirers os
Mr.. Hudson. Among those sponsoring
the plan are John Gslsworthy, Lord
and Lady Grey, Edmund GoSse, J. c.
Squire and other social and literary
leaders.
Lord Grey, speaking at the commit
tee meeting, recslled Mr.. Hudson's last
letter, in which he said II was 10 the
younger generation that the world
must look for justice and sympathy for
the birds, there being little 10 expect
from the grownups Of the present gen.
Grafton, as they had become incorigi-
BILE. He declared the teaching Of bird
lore in the schools was the only hope.
Lord Grey said that instead Of fol
lowing the nonsensleal custom Of plac-
ing bird sanetuaries near rivers and
creeks, where there was no need for
them, the memorial 70 Hudson should
be placed pt some spot where It would
be spprse hted BY his feathered friends.
The memorial, he added. should be
symbolic Of the great nsturslist's
spirit.

Germans Vote

Prohibition Advocates En-
couraged by Second Cain
Toward Absolute Elimina-

BERLIN, Dec. 2 (By The Associated
Press)cProhibition sentiment has
made such strides In Germany ths.

The dry forces now hsvs q second
overwhelming straw vote victory %
add 10 that scored IN Bislefeld some
time ago. A ballot they recently COM
plstsd IN osnsbrusek, an Industrial
center Of Hanover, bordering on West
phalis, shows that out Of 1887 quail
ned electors sl.3 per cent favored abb
soluta prohibition Of alcohol. This
number included B,et5 men and e,72l
women. Opposed TO prohibition were
AT men and s5i women.
This was the second Of q series Of
straw votes which the prohibltionists
plan 10 take throughout Germany,
Their cause has been considerably
strengthened By steps which the au-
thorisies were forced to take because
Of economic necessity.
The federal governments recsn,
note TO the Repsration Commission
proposing reduction In ths eonsump-
ton Of alcoholic drinks threw Q scare
into the ranks Of those interested in
the liquor traffic. At about the same
time the Ministry Of Eeonomies held
a conference Of several hours, at which
the question was discussed with rep.
rsssntatives Of the liquor industry and
the retail dealers.
The impression wont out from tha,
meeting that tho question Of national
prohibition was only q question oi

LONDON, Dee. 2.-Four years after
the signing Of the srmlstiee books have
been published which are certain TO
open 10 violent form many controvsr-
sizes arising from the question Of
unified command during the last stages
Of the war and the fight between SOL
diers and politicians. "sir Douglas
Hsig's Command, December 10, 1915, to
November II. isis," by Cab Dewsr and
Colonel J. Borsston, private secretary
10 Haig. comes as the most Sensational
postwar book In some time. giving
facts which had hitherto been unknown
to the general public.
In brief, the authors credit Haig With
originating the plans which broke the
Hindenburg line, and they charge
Lloyd George with interfering With the
soldiers on numerous occasions. II Is
asserted that Haig gave the authors se-
cess 20 his diaries
Book Tends to Praise Haig
The book cannot be called impartial,
but Il has undeniAbly placed Haig in
more favorable light and tends 20
show that Foeh has been receiving
more praise than he 10 entitled to.
Captain Peter Wright in "Ths POmp
OF Power described Haig as "a man
Of small intelligence" Apparently this
and other comments so brutally frank
are responsible IN n measure for the
passionate defense, Of the British mar
shall.
Reviewers have devoted columns TO
the book, most Of which have been
written by military experts. As usual,
there are two groups, the one support
ing. the other attacking Haig. and in
directly supporting politicians.
Contribution 20 Literature
However much experts condemn GER
tain statements in the Dewar- Boraston
book. they all agree that II Is one OF
me valuable contributions TO postwar
literature, and should be read By every
one interested IN the prolonged con-
troverSy over the responsibility and
credit for the last events Of 1918. Not
only do the authors rob Foeh Of some
glory, but they also make some sur
prising statements regarding the
French ministry after the collapse Of
Nivelle.
Foch and Haig are now close friends,
and Il Is not likely that any bitterness
will arise between them as a result
OF the book, but the French military
critics are likely to find in IL many
points with which 70 take issue.

The Times-Union writer had better
refer to his files. After putting up
with outrages for nearly three years,
the American government took meas
ures to stop Mexicans firing across
the border, In several places, Mexi-
cans were shot ON their own ground
by United States soldiers. for firing
into the streets of American towns.
Villas power was broken by the
Americans threatening. to fire on his
army if it attacked party of Car
ranza's troops which was backed up
against the boundary line. When
Pershing was in Mexico and the Ma
tional Guard was on the border, Mex
leo was bluntly Informed she could
have war at once if she wanted it.
Finally, American cavalry charged
into Mexico one morning in 1919 and
scattered all over the adjoining coun-
try Mexicans who were firing into
Ell Paso. All these things took place
while Carranza was president. Obre-
gon has tried to keep peace with the
United States; but the cavalry camps
and airplane fields along the border
are probably more responsible for
Mexican good behavior than anything
else.

We resemble France is one way: we
are refusing to recognize the govern
ment of Russia, in an effort to black
mail Russia into paying the debts of
the car. This nation did not pay the
debts of the, South after the North
won. There is no reason why Rus
STA, having got rid of the car and
the grand dukes, should pay their
debts. Republicans in France and
America foolish enough to lend to an
autocracy should and probably will
lose their money. It will be an edu-
cation to them.-Arthur Brisbane.
This is where the brilliant Brisbane
makes one of his occasional slip-ups.
The South was never a nation. 1t tried
to establish one and failed. The
South owed very little money except
to it's own people. Russia contracted
debts as responsible nation, and the
vastly larger proportion Of the money
borrowed did not go to the car and
grand dukes, but into railways and
other improvements. And back of all
that is the fact that Lenine and Trotz-
ky are as autocratic, or more SO, as
the cars and grand dukes. They have
proclaimed that they intend to upset
all governments, and a government
that trusts them is foolish.
