The government goes right on
ignoring the prohibition law on sea
while making some ineffective. eff
forts to enforce it on land" re-
marked August Busch, of Anheuser-
Busch, Inc, when he arrived last
week from Europe. Mr. Busch fur
Their stated that passengers on the
George Washington discussed the
buying of liquor from the govern
ment on board the ship and then i'm
viting the government to arrest and
prosecute them when they reached
shore.
1t would certainly be legal ques-
tion as to whether the government
could use money from the United
States Treasury to sell liquor on its
ships at a profit and then prosecute
purchase for violation of the law
1t is true the government is in an
awkward position. The Shipping
Board is spending thousands of dol
lars to stimulate passenger traffic,
but much of the money is wasted
because dry ship has hard time
to win travellers.
The majority of the people Of the
United States may be dry but they
don't travel the ocean enough to
back up an American Merchant Ma
rine along lines of moral conduct.
Official dignitaries who publicly
espouse prohibition have their Gel
lars, the private room at the public
banquet is a recognized factor at all
successful dinners Even the offices
of some Of our Congressman are said
to be storehouses for booze.
Summed up, the country stands
today the apotheosis of hypocrisy.
The American Merchant Marine
seems to rest in the balance, but
hypocrisy will sink the ships quicker
than any restriction.
Let US have enforcement or repeal,
one thing or the other.

ABOUT TIME TO DROP THE WAR POPPYCOCK

Someone who has not yet come out from under
the spell of Creel-made psychology has recently
marked in public that Woodrow Wilson Gifted the
World from the level of low scrap to the high
plane of a struggle between autocracy and democ
racy."
The phrase makers have never told us how Pres-
dent Wilson by his fine flow of language changed the
character of the World war, though M. Wilson
in 1916 said we not concerned with the issues in
volved and later insisted that the had been from
the beginning crusade for democracy. If it was war
for the ideals Mr.. Wilson so POLITICALLY talked about
that fact surely would have been disclosed in the war
settlement in which every principle advocated by him
was betrayed The mention of these ideals in connec
ton with such performances the Shantung settle
ment is species of hypocrisy with the American
people dealt rather effectively at the polls in No.

United States in the World that mentioned in
our declaration OF War-namely that we had been re-
peatedly attacked the high by the German gov
eminent and had to get into the out of self re-
spect For any other there was no excuse for
eXpending American blood and treasure, because the
war settlement clearly revealed to men of common
sense that other was involved. 1t is about

TRAGIC DEATH Of
A FORMER CITIZEN

Washburn, August &C. Relatives
and friends here and elsewhere in
East Tennessee will be sorry to learn
of the tragic death of Miss Dora
Hamilton, which occurred on August
16 at her home at Livermore, KY,
Noting the approaching rain storm
Miss Hamilton began taking tn fam
lily wash from the clothes wire when
a bolt of lightning struck tree to
which one end of the wire was fast
ened. 1t followed the wire, passing
through the young woman's body,
causing instant death.
Miss Hamilton was % years old
and the daughter of Rev. and Mrs.
c. H. Hamilton, who formerly lived
at Liberty Hill. Miss Hamilton is
a niece of Prof. Scott Hamilton, who
is now principal Of the Washburn
High School. Her sister, Miss Ethyl
Hamilton, now Mrs. E. E. Ballard of
Louisville, KY, will be remembered
as visiting relatives and friends at
this place and other points in East
Tennessee during the summer 1920,
She is also survived by one other sis
ter Miss Dusky Hamilton and six
brothers.
Funeral services were conducted
in the Richland Baptist church at 2
P. M. August II, after which the
body was inferred in the Richland
cemetery.
Miss Hamilton was a member OF
of the Island Rebekah Lodge, No.
105. The members Of that lodge took
charge of the body at the closing
services which were most solmenly
conducted. The many friends of Mr..
and Mrs. Hamilton and family ex-
tend deep sympathy in their loss of
a daughter and loving sister.
The deceased wa to have been mar
ried to Mr.. Waiter Foster, a promi-
nent and prosperous young man.

WHOLESALE & RETAIL

A few days ago we came across a
picture of six young men convicted
and sentenced to be executed for
the murder OF one man in Louisiana.
1t brought to mind she fact that in
Herrin, Ill, within the past month,
Is were killed, 81 were wounded and
IL were unaccounted for as result
of massacre by mob. No attempt
has been made by the Illinois author
tiles to bring the perpetrators of
these crimes to justice. A compar-
ison of the two incidents raises the
question as to whether murder is
less crime for being wholesale. =

WEST POINT. N. Y. Here on

This year Rockne has pulled out
Castner to intimidate the Cadets.
Castner comes east as the most
mighty touted back in years-a GER
tain all-American performer. How
much he deserves the palm may
be judged from the fact that
against Indiana he scored all his
teams 27 points making three
touchdowns, three goals after touch
downs and two field goals from
about forty yards. The army will
be laying for Mr.. Castner TODAY.
The Cadets themselves are regard

around the veteran captain. Fritz
Breidster. Also the Cadets have
widened their style of play, and their
repertoire this year is understood to
contain an overhead passing game

noon should be pretty.
The weather prospects were clear
