Americas decision has made it an
international question, so that Mex

the rulers OF the British empire have
faced the problem that odr country
has presented to them. Newspaper
reports indicate that they will sup
port our contentious and give their
assistance. 1t has become a live
issue In India Japan, South Africa,
China and many other lands. A dis
tingutshed English leader predicted
to the writer last summer that he
expected that Lloyd George would
come to America. as he has, and that
ne probably would give considerable
attention to the working OF prohibi-
tlon mere, because, IL we make It
work. then Britain would be forced
TO adopt 1t to keep her place I'm the

leader has not said a. word about the
subject here. as he has pleaded for
a closer Fellowship In saving civtliza-

sured that he has caught the vision
or America. While some Of the col
