Prohibition Has Made Good

On a recent Monday Judge Gemmil
sat on the bench of the old Harrison
street police court in Chicago. 1t was
his first appearance there since prohi-
bition went into effect. Naturally he
was interested to note whether the ef-
feet of prohibition was observable in
this catch-all for offenders.
The first thing that impressed him
was that he sat alone. In former days
two judges had been necessary to dis
pose Of Mondays business-the ac-
cumulation from Saturday and Sun
day. But, by noon, Judge Gemmil.
single-handed, had cleaned up the
docket and was lunching with friends
at loop club.
The second thing that impressed
him was that, instead of from $50 to
400 cases, there were less than 200;
and the third thing, that, instead of
from so to 200 cases directly traceable
to intoxication, there were but 90.
Among the companions of the Judge
at lunch was business man, the head
of Chicago industry said to be the
third largest of it's kind in the world.
He said: II am convinced from what
1 have seen that prohibition is the
best thing that has ever happened in
the United States. 1t is as effective as
any law on the statute books. We
will never repeal it,"
DR.. Woods Hutchinson contributes
an article in the July issue of Hearst's
international. The auspices of the
publication do not suggest dry preju-
dice. He entities it prohibition Has
Made Good" and proves his case with
statistics gathered from man,-
sources. The following paragraph is
worth thinking over:
"The net result, even after allowing
for all the attempted consumption of
home-brew high explosives, is that
less than third rs many tons of
good, wholesome, nutritious grains,
fruits and roots are being turned into
alcohol as formerly. AS only about
one-fourth Of the total food value, or
fuel energy Of the barley, corn, ap-
pies, grapes, ETC., distilled, is recov-
cred in the form of alcohol, this means
that thousands of tons Of nourishing
bread and cereals and appetizing and
refreshing fruits are placed upon the
markets and and in the grocers' win
dows for use upon our tables without
extra charge The nation has
gained four times as much food value
as it has lost, by wiping out the alco-
hol industry"

your anti-prohibition friends. The
trouble with many of them is that
they don't know the facts.-Louisvill

of the laymen from Whitmire come

should cooperate and do more and
take more interest in the community
and welfare of others. We appreciate
the interest of the laymen for our
Sunday school and wish them much
success, and may they continue their
good work. On last Sunday afternoon
Messrs. Roy Bullard, Ross, Story,
Cook and Wilbanks were with us. Mr..
Story is fine musician and helps out

Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock. A cor

Speed Cops After Airmen

Washington, July 21 (By the Asso-
ciated Press).-How're you going to
catch law-breaking airman a thou
sand feet up in the air when you
haven't a plane, balloon, or even a
stepladder to get him with2 That's
the question agitating the District of
Columbia police today on the eve of
the going into effect of washington's
newest and most stringent traffic reg
ulation.
Hereafter police will be expected to
see that no fiighty human flier skins
lower than the fixed safety limit; that
none Of them attempt any fancy fly
ing; and-worst of all-that every
f1ier over Washington roofs has a IL
cense.
It's the last section of the new rule
that bothers the cops most, for there's
not single plane owned by the en-
tire police force with which to stop
the reckless in mid-air to gruffiy de-
mand sight of their permits; and
what's more, say police officers, no one
on the force sees any possibility Of
these ever being one.
Nevertheless, there's the law, and
the coppers are scratching their heads
to find way out.
The air traffic rule is the direct out
come of the act of a commercial flier
who flew so low over the assemblage
at the dedication of the Lincoln Me-
mortal, last Decoration Day, that he
drowned out President Harding's voice
during his address. Public and official
denunciation quickly aroused congress
to the PRONUNCIATION of the regulation
and stiff fines now await the unthink-
ing flier.
While the order was issued month
ago, the penalties do not go into eff
feet until midnight tonight 1t is
provided that no flier shall descend
lower than 5000 feet within the D. C.
boundaries, unless landing, taking off,
or en- route to another point; that all
persons except United States agents,
such as army, navy, marine corps and
mail fliers, must be duly licensed pi-
lots; that no trick flying shall be at
tempted under any circumstances; and
that aviators shall land only at desig-
mated fields.
Qualified pilots will be granted free
licenses by the district commissioners
and licenses issued by any lawfully
created board of any state or by any
branch of the federal government will
be accepted in qualification. However,
pilots passing over the District with
out descending into the SAFETY zone
will not be expected to have license.
Police officials do not expect air
traffic to become a very great prob
lem for some time yet, so they will
rely upon the integrity of pilots to
keep within the law. If any of them
try to pull the wool over police eyes by
fleeing after they break the law, eagle
eyes will mark their descent and
they'll be nabbed anyway.
At least one such recalcitrant f1ier
who made a nuisance of himself, as
well as possible danger, by flying
low over a crowded bali park and
throwing out advertising "fliers," has
already fallen into police clutches, of
ficers said. When he landed copper
was awaiting him with a warrant for
breaking the law in regard to clutter
ing public places with paper.
