UNCLE SANS LIQUOR BUSINESS


UNCLE SANS LIQUOR BUSINESS
it is perhaps unfair or indlscreet
to pry too closely into the saloon
business conducted by the United
States, through its Shipping Board
on ocean liners. Nevertheless GER
! tain questions raised in a set OF
resolutions introduced in Congress
are too interesting TO pass by in
Isilence.
/ One resolution asks the Shipping
Board TO inform the public whether
or not it is buying liquor in England
to, sell on it's vessels. This appears
Ito be a trap question, intended to
cause embarrassment because the
/ United States government has been
asking the British government to
help it curb the smuggling OF liquor
into this country. An unkind critic
rises to remark that of course the
shipping Board is buying booze in
England; otherwise how could it sell
Ipure Scotch on its ships?
Another resolution wants to know
why, if the government must oper-
ate bars on its ships, it does not
use the bootleg liquor confiscated ON
land There would be a big saving
in that, unquestionaby The con-
fiscated booze costs nothing. But
do the reformers who are pressing
these resolutions want to kill off the
travelling population? Whiskey
bought in England is at least safer
for the drinkers.
The American Bar association
finds that 80 per cent OF all crimes
are committed with pistols. Moral
fire the pistols.
A three billion bushel corn crop
is predicted. Maybe if we can't
have railroads or coal we can run
our industries on corn flakes.
AS we emerge from the national
industrial crises, brought about by
strikes, we must recognize that the
experience has cost the country as
a whole the price of a medium sized
war. AS usual, the rich fellows
who have thus been saved the maxi
mum expense of operating massive
enterprises during the normally dull
period of the year are the ones who
have profited by the upheaval, and
the masses are footing the bill.
Thus ii goes.
The proposal TO provide Parasould
with a modern Boy Scout home and
public assembly hail combined, con-
tinues to meet with increased favor.
The only thing lacking is the ac-
ton that viii start the movement
TO completion. Regardless Of the
many other things the community
needs, or must have, the Boy Scout
enterprise Is project that means
too much to the community for it
not TO be pushed through along the
lines proposed.
The druggists are urging a mar
cotic inquiry by Congress. Good
idea but really, it's getting so that
most everything Congress does is
sort of narcotic. If you don't be-
lieve il, read the Congressional Rec
ord.
The French call premier Poincare,
bitter-end reparationist, 1.-The last
hone Of France" And from this
distance, he certainly looks like a
forlorn hope.
