DIR. ELLIS FEARS
ANOTHER WAR
Thinks Allies Bungle Every
Time They Get
Together
NOT TIME FOR u. S.
TO GO IN, HE SAYS

Declaring that the "oftener the
Allies get together the farther apart
they get" Or. william T. Ellis. OF
Swarthmore, Pa. former war cores
pendent. roundly scored the Euro
pean powers in an address last night
in the First Unitarian Church. West
street above Eighth.
Or. Ellis also told his audience he
believed the world was ION the
brink OF another war;" adding: ITO
day the Tlrk is back. holding aloft
the bloody sword because the Allies
were too greedy and the Americans
too cowardly TO let the American
people know the facts as they are"
Expressing the further belief that
the l.. S. should keep aloof from
European intrigues in the Near East
as long As the European powers
continue 10 play the kind OF poll
tics they have been playing up 10
the present time. Or. Ellis con-
tinued
81 believe we are going 70 have
real League OF Nations. but only
when the powers Of Europe confess
they have sinned. that they have
erred and will be good.
To-day there ia not a shadow
Of League OF Nations spirit
among the nations involved in the
Near East problem. Europe has a
league of nations constitution with
out the spirit America has the
league Of nations spirit without its
constitution. When a league IL
formed with the real league of ma
tons spirit. one which will carry out
the ideals OF the brave men who
went 10 their deaths in the sublime
belief that the bars OF tyranny would
he broken down. America will lead
such a league OF nations. While
America has been undergoing
sunni during the past three years
believe America will lead the new
league"
Or. Ellis disputed the prevalent
+heorv that the center OF gravity in
world affairs is on the Pacific. The
center of world affairs he declared
is around the Mediterranean. Cen
trail Europe. he said, is standing on
the edge of the abyss, the mark the
kronin and the franc have fallen INTO
the bottomless pit.
Christianity i'm Peril.
We are now confronted with tne
question" he added, ''as 20 whetner
western civilization is going TO sur
vive or not. II Is question
whether or not the Christians can !
hang together long enough or VIII
hang themselves. The unity OF
Europe has gone to pieces II
doesn't exist"
DR.. Ellis denounced what he
termed the outrageous and un-
speakable secret treaties OF the Al |
lies after the war. The schism |
which Is the biggest tragedy IN |
Europe today. he said. is between |
France and England. and goes BACK !
TO the land of its origin-the Medi- |
terranean."
The speaker declared he was not 1
interested in talking TO anybody
who approaches the question as
partisan. The only way we nave
env right 20 approach the subject
he said. is with an open mind 70

humanity. We must face the facts

Continuing. the speaker describ-
ed Turkey as the worst beaten ma
ton in the world. with a guilty con-
science, her hands dripping with the
blood OF innocents. Then came the
Allies with a mandate from Chris
tendon TO punish the guilty Turks
II was a solemn duty OF the Allies
to administer justice to the Turks
But they punished nobody

The Allies were not thinking OF JUS

against each other; they set about
exploitation. Their diplomats for

Admitting the truth OF Moslem
massacr prior 10 and during the
war, DR.. Ellis declared that since the
war more Moslems have been killed
by Christians than Christians by
Moslems.

He praised the work OF the
American commission sent to Tur-
key by President Wilson after the
Paris conference when he said
England and France and their al
lies got cold feet" and would not
permit their delegates 10 investigate
every side Of the complex Turkish
question. The American delegation,
he said drew up a comprehensive
report which was suppressed at
Washington. in spite or the fact that
Senator Knox had the Senate draw
up resolution TO have the report
printed.
America. he said. Is the only ma
ton trusted by the countries in the
Near East. With 5000 men, he de-
clared, America could have brought
peace TO the Near East, but this was
not done because down in Wash
ington we had no statesmen. only
and Democrats"
While the present emergency ex-
lists wherever there is need. the
speaker said America ought 70 serve.

KEEP THE DRY LAW DRY

for regulation and broke every law to
put an extra nickel in the till 81
The clamor about lawiessness under
Prohibition is louder than it was
under license. because it is aug
mentcd by the shrill cries of those
who fnd 1T necessary to break the
law in order to get what they want.
The regulatory laws under license
were continually violated, but the
protest came only from those who
were genuinely interested in enforc-
ing them. The noisest element to-
day was silent then-it was getting all
it wanted.
AS matter of fact, in spite of all
that is printed about disregard for
the Volstead law Prohibition is work.
ng at this moment mighty changes
tor the betterment and prosperity of
America. From every section of the
country comes testimony Of increased
savings in the banks, steadier work in
industry, conversion of saloon prop
erty to useful purposes, happier
homes, wives and children better fed
and better clothed.
Give Prohibition chance with the
generation now growing up, and in
ten years the teen age youth of today
will thank its fathers and mothers for
standing firmly against the return of
legalized alcohol in any beverage
form.

No amendment to the Constitution
of the Unite States stands on hrmer
foundation than that which wrote
Prohibition into our organic law.
1t was the result of fifty years Of
agitation and education, the deliberate
verdict of a people who had watched
the havoc wrought by the liquor traf-
hc, and who were impelled by moral
social and economic reasons to Danish
it from the land.
More than half the states in the
Union had taken independent action
to rid their territory from the saloon
before the eighteenth amendment was
ratified.
Only three states out of forty-eight
voted against ratification.
In the face of these facts there are
still those who argue that Prohibi-
ton ccme in a fantical wave of emo
tional;sm; that it was rushed thru
without sufficient consideration; that
1t took the opposition ar an unfaif
advantage. These are childish con-
tentions, and deserve no serious con-
sheraton
Prohibition is the will of the people.
Efforts to change that will by per-
suading the states to seek repeal of
the eighteenth amendment are legit-
innate No man should be denounced
for the proper use of his influence in
this direction if he feels led by con-
viction to engage in futile campaign.
But attempt to amend the Volstead
law by weakening it is in another
category. This is notification. 1t is

Our neighbor the tribune, III It's
issue of May 80, frankly declared it.
self in favor of amending the Vol
stead act. In an editorial it sum-
married. its position as follows:
The Tribune believes that at least
partial solution of the liquor law
lessness and liquor diseases which are
threatening the country would be
found in an amendment to the Vol
stead act which permitted the produc-
ton and sale, under regulations, of
good beer and wine of light alcoholic
content"
Doubtless. the Tribune is satisfied
that in seeking to shape public opin-
ion for change in the law it is pur-
suing an aim which will make for
public good. "A like aim, arising from
that sense of responsibility which
every decent newspaper must feel, i'm
pels The Post to urge that the dry
law be kept dry--in other words, that,
so Jar as the matter of alcoholic con-
tent is concerned, there shall be no
amending of the Volstead act.
Those who are today arguing for
light wines and beer from a sense of
public duty, rather than under the
dictates of appetite and commercial
interest, have permitted the inevitable
disturbance of a transition stage in
society to obscure their vision of the
long run good, and even to defend
them to the testimony of immediate
benefits.
The biggest value OF Prohibition in
health, happiness and prosperity will
be demonstrated in the next genera
ton. The Post is concerned to keep
the law intact primarily for the sake
of the boys and girls who are growing
up today. To permit the return of
beverages, with an alcoholic content
sufficient to be appreciate, is to sow
the seeds OF alcoholic appetite in an
other generation of American youth.
1t is not difficult to conceive how
alcoholic liquors, permitted under a
constitutional amendment ostensibly
prohibiting intoxicants, would become
much more generally the beverage of
young people than they were under
license. The seal of the laws approval
would be on their hypothetical harm
lessncss, and this would encourage
their use.
LOCALIZED sale OF such liquors would
bring back into the field all the great
army of appetite-exploiters, whose
profit depends upon the creation of
craving which is not satisfied with
enough What guaranty can be given
by any of the advocates of light wines
and beers that a law licensing their
sale would be better kept than the
Prohibition law is today? 1t is not
absurd to suppose that the COM
mercial interests permitted to dis
pense the alcoholic appetite sharpener
would resist the temptation to satisfy
the shafpened appetite with stronger
liquors? When full license was al
lowed them they displayed contempt

has issued a statement on the
results of prohibition, showing
that in 1917 intemperance was i

~ per cent in 1920. The re-
port states further that of 1928

port, that Prohibition has en-
abled many thousands to tide
themselves over the long period
of unemployment, for it has
given them chance to use what
money they had in more useful
ways than in the saloons.
1T is also their opinion that
the present statistics of arrests
for drunkenness may be mis-
leading, for in number of cases
they have found that the bad
