rONDULD REPEAL DRY
LAWS IN GEORGIA
Iumpkin Legislator Author OF
Measure That Would Abol-
ish State Prohibition

ATLANTA, July 3.-Dr. Craig K.
Arnold member of the legislature
from Iumpkin county, declared TO-
day that the purpose Of bill
which he plans to introduce, repeal
inc the state prohibition laws is not
to wipe cut prohibition but to re-
move all conflicting authorities
and Clarity the enforcement of the
federal law.
The Volstead act is a federal
statute" he stated. Probably if l
had written it. I would have indict-
ed it differently but | didn't have
anything to do with it. The nation
adopted it and it stands today as
tho supreme law on the subject
since the requisite number Of
states in the union have put their
Clamp of approval on it. There
fore, the law is even more supreme
than the Congress which passed 1t
in a way since it has been given
that ratification. That law sets up
a certain authority for its own en-
forcement and that authority IS
backed by the very flag Of the
United States government, the
world wide proven strongest pow
en- on the face of the earth.
an Georgia is in the case of
some other states, we have a state
statute which differs radically
from the supreme law on the sub
iect. 1t provides an entirely diff
ferent machineryf or its own en-
forcement; it is complex and the
machinery itself is complex. The
state itself has no control over its
own machinery of enforcement be-
cause the state of Georgia has alb
solutely no law enforcement pow
ers or branch Of government. That
is totally and wholly with the in
dividual counties. In one way of
looking at it, we have 100 little law
enforcement governments all with
in themselves and if one county
sees fit not to enforce the prohi-
bition law and the adjoining coun-
ty sees fit not to enforce it, it is
a matter entirely up to the sheriff
and county authorities of each of
these counties. The state, in point
of actual fact, stands helpless to
either compel the reluctant or re-
calcitrant sheriff to enforce the
law, nor has it the power to re
move him if he tells the state in
so many words where to head in
and get off. That fact has been
proven time and again"

WOmen's Fetters In
Turkey Breaking

ConStantinople, June 10 CA. Po-
Turkish women seem destined soon
to enjoy the same freedom and privi-
leges as women in the United States.
Mustapha Kennel has promised them
the vote and they are now beginning
to shake off the letters which have
kept them to domestic bondage since
time immemorial. A great women's
political congress will be held here
shortly, and a countryside suffrage
movement inaugurated. Women pos
sessing diplomas of higher or second
airy education may appoint delegates.
One of the leaders of the new
movement says the object of the
Turkish women is to obtain the vote
peacefully within two years. Mean
while, the first step in this direction
was won recently when the women
elected Turkish woman teacher on
the council of primary education.
Women voters appeared at the elect
oral assembly in greater numbers
than the men, and this was interpret
ed as showing modern enlightened
Turkish women's keenness in social
matters.
Mrs. Mark Bristol, wife Of Admiral
Bristol, the American High Commits
sioner, is active in Turkish social and
civic societies and has given the Mos
lem women leaders much useful
counsel based upon the experience of
American women in political and
public life.
Ninety percent Of Turkish women
are illiterate. Their education ex-
tends little beyond memorization of
parts of the Koran Turkish Bible)
and a certain acquaintance with
household and maternal duties. Their
husbands regard them as merely con-
venient mediums to minister to their
needs and pleasures.

Religious Schools
At State Colleges
To Be Established

! ann Arbor, July IL "a. PA
school of religion supported by Pro-
testants, Roman Catholics and Jews,
one of number of similar institu-
tons to be established at state uni
versities where state laws do not per-
mt religious instruction as part. of
the curriculum, will open at the Uni
versity of Michigan next year.
This school was projected by the
National Council of Schools of Re-
ligion and financed by volunteer con-
tributions.
Alexis c. Angel Of Detroit is tenn
porary president of the Michigan
school, whose executive committee in
a statement covering the aims of the
new institutions says:
The plan has the sympathy and
| support of Protestants, Roman Cath
olics and Jews. The plan is the re-
suit of a growing belief that there is
a serious gap in our modern educa-
| tional system. Our forefathers, who
! identified religion with sectarianism,
wishing to insure freedom of con-
science, placed a constitutional bar.
perhaps not unwisely, in nearly all
the states, on the teaching of religion
in tax supported schools, colleges and
universities. AS result the study
l, of religion and ethics has been too
much neglected.; education has be-
come increasingly utilitarian and
materialistic. The graduates of our
unsupported institutions are more
and more becoming neither, religious
nor irreligious, but Simply on-relig-
ious.
1T is proposed, through schools of
religion, to give instruction in the
I,t .tNr.r- I. t<.,, III
religion and in the fundamental prin-
ciples underlying all region; for it
has been and is bound to be an i'm
portant factor in private and public
life and cannot safely be ignored in
any system Of education which aims
to deveiop character
mo tax money will be used to sup
port the schools of religion, and they
are to be free from sectarianism and
denominationalism
1.-THE National Council Is cooperat-
ing with local forces in Michigan in
| establishing at Ann Arbor, the seat of
the University of Michigan, with its
10000 or more students, the first fully
equipped school of religion. 1t is ex-
pected that other similar schools will
be developed at other great educa-
tional centers.
The entire movement Is inspired
! by the widespread conviction that
something essential is lacking in our
modern civilization. and that the best
way to meet the demands Of youth
for practical philosophy of life is to
| enable them to estimate rightly the
relative value of the spiritual and OF
1.-THE material lifes and that this task
can be accomplished most effectively

1.-THE wild animals are very well
kept, look well nourished. I OBJ
served that very few drivers Of the

ing the equestriennes, used whips.
This speaks well for the ability of the
drivers and the training OF the
horses.
Around the stables, I noticed that
the men did not holler to the animals
but seem to be very kindly in their
treatment. The animals did not ap-
pear to be afraid of their masters"
