Beer and Bombs

TT is today more of crime against the
i commonwealth to sell glass of beer
than it is to put dynamite under the bed
of a sleeping man and blow him and his
house across the street.
Ten years ago such a statement would
have been received in this country as the
rawlings of a mailman; men drank beer. and
men sold beer and they did not consider
themselves lower than murderers. nor did
the community consider them dangerous
criminals. Indeed for 60 years the COM
munity encouraged the wholesale selling of
liquors, and the wholesale creating of appe-
tites for alcohol, for the revenue there
was in it.
But that's all one side. The important
thing is that maniacs like the masked
degenerates who recently bombed Ia
coma house. knowing the owner was asleep
within that house, on the mere excuse
that he was suspected of selling home
brewed beer to some workers in neigh
boring smelter, are today lauded as bat
tiers against the demon rum
They are dirty towards, and they are
battlers against nothing but the elemental
decences that set men apart from rattle
snakes
1t is to be hoped that this nation has
not gone so entirely insane on Volsteadism
that it has lost all sense of proportion.
Enforce the law certainly. Go ahead
and enforce it. But don't encourage
masked mobs to commit miscellaneous
murder by night, and then whitewash
these madmen by calling them foes of rum.

TOSSUTH and karolyi-Daniel Webster
N and Frank b. Kellogg in
the year 1850, and America in the year
1925!
In 1850 KoSsuth fled from Hungary
He had written declaration of independ-
ence. similar to our own, and led mn unsuc-
ceSSful attempt TO gain for Hungary free
dom from the crown of the HapsburgS.
Daniel Webster then secretary of state
in n famous diplomatic document wrote:
THE United States cannot fail to cherish
lively interest in the fortunes of nations
struggling for institutions like their own
And then Webster offered the use of
United States vessels TO bring kossuth
and his family and companions to this
country.
In 1925 Count karolyi came to America
after having been found guilty, by the
Budapest royal tribunal. of high treason
His crime was surrendering to the Allies
which includes us - during the world
war and later abdicating his government
to the Hungarian soviet government, when
superior forces made it necessary for him
to do So
The United States permitted him to
enter this country to see his sick wife,
but Secretary of State Hughes. and later
Secretary Kellogg, decreed that he must
not make n speech nor write on political
matters while here.
Have American ideals altered in 70
years?
Seventy-five years ago we upheld the
principles upon which our nation was
founded whenever and wherever we en-
countered them.
Today, il seems, we stand for free
thought and free speech only when ii hap
pens to be convenient.
