SOUTH DAKOTA
IS NEARLY DRY
REPORT OF w. O. KNIGHT, PRO
HIBlTION DIRECTOR, TO HIS
SUPERIORS IN WASHING
TON.

Washington, ID. c., Sept. 20-Di-
rector w. o. knight, of South Da-
kota, has notified Federal Prohibi-
ton Commissioner Haynes that
there were only 90 arrests for
drunkenness in the entire state dur
ing the past three weeks, compared
with 537 for similar period before
prohibition took effect.
Federal agents, cooperating
with state sheriffs, produced very
encouraging results during the past
month";" said Director Knight, land
while violations have not been re-
duced to a minimum it is my opin-
ion, after careful investigation, that
there is a keen awakening on the
part of the better class of citizens
of their responsibility in law en-
forcement.
"As an indication of the splendid
attitude of courts and juries, | have
only to state that out of % cases
presented at the last term of the
federal court there were 81 pleas of
guilty and one conviction, and grati-
flying results have been secured in
other cases. We have excellent CO.
operation of all law enforcement
agencies and United States Attor-
ney Clark and his assistants are Civ
ing us every aid possible. On the
whole, | am pleased with the inn
proved conditions in this state"
According to Director knight, the
home brew fad is now almost obso-
lete, and in South Dakota it is not
being done by the best people; also
that exposure of the filthy condi-
tions in the making of moonshine III
quor has caused those addicted to
drinking the stuff to turn against
it, which naturally has lessened the
demand.
Director knight also reported:
Our activities for the month of
August consisted of investigating
nearly 200 reported violations, some
20 arrests were made and over "a
dozen stills captured. About 100
gallons of poisonous liquor was de-
stroyed.
1.-The press is a great help and we
have the continued cooperation of
the state sheriff's office and his dep
uties. In most counties the juries
are favorable and the judges deal
out severe penalties.

London, Sept. 20-A ray of hopa
that the conflict between the Turks
and British may be avoided shone
from Paris where preliminary
peace conference met and is under
way, attended by representatives Of
Britain, France, Italy and Jugoslay~
ia. Premier Poincare who has the
confidence of Kemal, asked the Brit
ish to forego military moves in the
near east until conference could be
held with the Turkish leader. How
ever, this did not prevent military
movements by the two nations. Bri-
tain went forward with plans for
military and naval concentration in
the Darnenelles and Greece started
to organize her routed armies. In
London representatives. of six mil
lion workers demanded that the gov
ernment avoid clash with the
Turks.

killed.. it is reported to the biologi-

He was huge mountain lion.

LIMIT, YOUR WANTS
BY H. Arlington Bruce

~ NE common cause of the nervousness 30
} much in evidence today Is the wide
- spread craving for luxuries. All expert
in the treatment of nervous disorders recog-
nize the malign influence this craving often
exercises. They perceive, in the words Of
one Of their number, DR.. r. S. Carroll:
Modern living is high living-intellec-
tually, emotionally, socially. 1t is so clut-
tered with external interests, with their in
satiable demands, that the study or even the
recognition of life's fundamentals is becom-
ing lost art to the average man.
''All things simple are being accounted
cheap or subject to ridicule. In almost
every home the comforts of generation
gone have become life's necessities; while
luxury, increasing though it does lifes COM
plexity countless-fold, is sought and &C
claimed by the majority as an essential
comfort"
Yet the majority, in the natural order OF
things, cannot obtain all the luxuries they
crave. But they do not, as rule, frankly
acknowledge this to themselves, repress the
craving, and put sensible limitation on
their wants
Instead, they clutch out for luxuries only
the more desperately. Or they permit them
selves to become morbidly disconnected with
their lot in life, and openly envious of those
to whom they find fortune has been more
kind.
Thereby, all unwittingly they SOW within
them the seeds OF nervousness.
For discomfort, envy, and the self-pity to
which discomfort and envy give rise, have
directly unfavorable action on the whole
organism. including the nervous system.
They affect adversely every vital process,
from the digestion OF food to the circuIa-
ton Of the blood.
This means ill-health in some degree! It
may. and often does, mean nervous collapse,
and vague but none the less tormenting
aches and pains.
Nor are those who can obtain whatever
Injuries they crave any the more fortunate
If they give free rein to their cravings.
For, as remarked by DR.. Carroll, luxuries
increase life's completely countless-foId %
And, on the other hand, they tend to a
de-energizing which makes it more and
more difficult for the individual to endure
the completely that he has himself fnten-
slf1ed through foolishly yielding to his in
tense desire for Injuries Of all sorts.

The Slayer of Rathenau

TT German monarchists hoped for advan-
tage from the assassination Of Walter
Rathenau they reckoned without their
host Of public opinion both at home and
abroad. He was one of the truly great men
of his country and o. his time, thinker and
doer, an idealist and a builder, states
man whose sincerity his own people could
not doubt and onlookers could but admire.
AS Foreign Minister he was charged with
matters Of utmost Importance to Germany
and to Europe, indeed to all the world. Mis-
steps he may have made, but his ruling MOI
tives were undeniably good. A freedom
loving forward-looking, humanitarian spirit
he was, trusted far and wide. -
That Germany should lose such friend
at this crucial stage brings grief and deep
anger to those who Lave her common veal
at heart. Naturally, too, they lay RESPONSE
bility at the door of reactionaries who,
though not involved in the murderous plot
itself, have fomented the passion and pref
udice of which dark deeds are engendered.
Herein lies the danger Of extreme agitators,
bonism or bolshevisrn There are always I'M
balanced minds to be swa-ed, and some
times word or gesture from reckless lead
er finds speedy sequence in assassination or
other violence. CIR
So it was that Walter ,Rathenau, able
servant of his people and effective worker
for international good will, fell slain when
he was sorely needed The rank and file Of
Germans are rightly incensed against the
Observation-Disclosures clique that has never
been willing to give the young republic a
out of it they might snatch again the sword
of despotism. A good day for Germany and
for the world it will be when that sinister
spirit is utterly crushed.
