Director Charles r. Forbes. OF the
Veterans Bureau, and Gen. Charles

rehabilitation committee Of the Dis

The committee in q public state.

Fully satisfied the Veterans Bu-

manly Is possible to provide ade-
quate hospital and curative facili-
ties for disabled veterans, the Dis
abled American Veterans has deter
mined to fight out this issue so
that misdirected criticism or en-.

"CONJURING" MADE FINE ART
apparently There Is No Limit to ths
credulity of the Natives Of
South Africa.

Negroes that were brought to Amer
lea as slaves used to relate stories
OF conjuror negroes in Africa who
could walk behind anybody and pick
up their tracks and put ethem in a
bag with poisonous spiders. toadfrogs
tree-frogs, devils horses-great big
grasshoppers with red and black
wings. Then doodlebugs and grub
worms would be put in, and cats fur
and piece Of leather-wing bats wing
and thousand.legged worms and liz
ards tails and scorpions.
When the conjuror's bag was COM
pleted it was buried under the caves
of the house where the victim of the
cohjuror lived. The terrifying pains
would soon make themselves mani
rest, and In the veins, the stomach
and the bowels of the unfortunate
person the verInin and insects would
hold high carnival. The victim was
doomed. No doctor could relieve him.
only by proptiating the conjuror was
there any hope. This could some
times be done by giving presents to
the cOnjuror. The poor conjured
wretch was avoided by all his ac-
quaintances. People did not like to
Ealk on the side of the road where
the doomed man lived. When the
''conjur" was getting Off, the vermln
and insects would sometimes be heard
jumping out and falling down kerflop
on the ground.
Eleanor C. Gibbs relates this story
In the Atlantic Monthly as one told
to her by an old negro woman who
was brought from Africa and who de.
clared she knew these things to be
true from personal experience.

Facts VS. Fiction,

Fiction Prohibition was hastily en-
acted
Psct-For more than 100 years pro-
b,bition was intensively and extensively
,tuded and discussed. No question
ever decided by the American people
was better understood.
Fiction Prohibition was the will and
act Of the minority.
rsct4BefOre national prohibition
went into effect "a states. acting sepa-
rs,ely for themselves. had adopted
prohibition More than three -fifths of
,he people and four-fifths of the terri
|tory of the country were under prohi
bition. The Eighteenth Amendment
was submitted by a vote of more than
two thirds of both houses of the United
States Congress and has been ratified
by 46 of the 48 states.
Fiction Prohibition is unconstitu-
tional
Fact-By unanimous opinion of
the United States Supreme Court, 1920,
both the Eighteenth Amendment and
the Vostead Enforcement Code were
declared to be constitutional.
Fiction Prohibition interferes with
personal liberty.
Fact-So do the Ten Commandments,
according to the testimony of every
ar. thief. libertine and blasphemer.
