Nobody knows better than the
liquor Overlords that If prohibition
proves to be q success in the United

within a few years, That is why
liquor dealers are lying about the
United States in every corner OF the
world
Wherever I travel over the world
tell my audiences that our prohi-
bition laws are better enforced after
three years Of experience than our
licensing laws We're after hundred
years of experience. a pint bottle

Zealand every day than I saw In five

Public Opinion

To the Editor Of The Times
About Memorial day and the races.
( am speaking for an old veteran OF
the Civil War, one who went through
such battles as Gettysburg, Freder-
icksburg, Bloody Angle, Anteitem,
Charlottesville, Battle of the VIII
derness and the seven days in front
Of Richmond (where ne had only
piece of bacon and few hard tack
for the whole seven days rations).
Yet he is not in favor Of this bill to
abolish the races on Decoration day.
We, who do not wish to attend the
races. are not compelled to, so why
not let the people Go as they wish.
Haven't we any rights any more? /
am with the man who said Czarism.
1t seems to me that every time we
turn around we find ourselves robbed
of another right that belongs to q
free man in a free country.
To my mind this bill has been bred
and fostered by some old person who
could neither be called a patriot nor
a coward, but who thinks the whole
world should do his way. Let us have
the way of the majority, and If we
must have this bill and abolish the
races then why not finish the job and
pass a bill making 1t crime to fail
to attend the ceremonies of Decoration
day. It's a poor rule that wont work
two ways
might add that I am a Daughter
Of America and I have no time for
this fool bill, which would turn thou

CHICAGO, Jan. 31.-"CiviliZation

Prof. Frederick Starr, head of the

statement here today.

Of disturbed minds.
AT the rate we're going, 1t is
