IRISH TRADE DISAPPOINTED
Indignant That No Representatives of
Their Organization Appointed on
Liquor Commission

The liquor trade in Ireland has pro-
tested to the government that the trade
has not been treated fairly in the appoint
ment of the Intoxicating liquor commits
sion.
The secretary of the Licensed Grocers
and Winners Association, speaking for
that association has made known the
surprise and indignation Of the trade at
the failure of the government to appoint
two or more members of that organiza-
ton on the personnel of the commission.
The association says that the majority of
the members were appointed because they
were biased against the trade as made
known by the views to which they had in
dividually given utterance from time to
time.
In reply to the protest the Minister of
Justice said that after due consideration
he came to the conclusion that it would
be inadvisable to give direct representa-
ton to the licensed trade or to organized
temperance bodies. Both these sides will
have every opportunity of putting their
views before the commission. however. he
said.

With the saloon no longer afordiing an
outlet for much of his wage, the worker
today has become part of the investing
power of the nation. Labor is becoming
a capitalist. This is not alone through
the many great labor banks which are
today playing a prominent part in hnanc-
ing industry, but also through individual
purchases of corporation stock by en-
ployees, many of whom, under the license
system, had no marginal funds to invest
in anything. The number of holders of
stocks and bonds has doubled since the
Eighteenth Amendment was adopted. In
February. 1925, over 4l,OOO employees of
the New York Central Lines subscribed
for 10000 shares of that roads stock.
thus over subscribing the offering of 35,7
600 shares by 176 per cent. This sub
scription means that over one-half of the
stockholders of the road are employees

WOULD PAY GERMAN WAR DEBT
Drink Bill for Individual is Ten
Dollars Annually; Teaching
Children Temperance

Prohibition would pay the German war
debt and have millions of gold marks to
substitute a grape juice industry accord
ing to the Germany's National Commit
tee for Prohibition The committee an
nounces that Germany is the wettest
country in the world, and has published
results OF survey which discloses Ger
mans drink just sip or two less than
two quarts of alcoholic beverage for
every quart consumed i'll France.
The annual German consumption is
100000 quarts, OF which l32000,00O
quarts are OF hard liquor, brandy, liquors
and the like. France consumes 100000,
900 quarts of Intoxicating beverages an
nually. if the red wine as served in every
French home as estimated can be called
Intoxicating. More than two billion gold
marks, or approximately $500,0O0,000, IS
the bill for hard liquor that Germany
digs deep to pay each year.
For his wine, beers and liquors each
German is said by the committee to
spend 40 gold marks, or $40, annually.
"Since the burden imposed on Germany
by the Dawes plan amounts to 40 marks
per capita" the committee sets forth.
Germany may win her freedom by cut
ting out booze"
Leaflets are being distributed to arrest
the national thirst Considerable attcn-
ton is being devoted to winning German
children away from the tastes of their
elders. One such contains nursery
rhymes cxtolling temperance and expos
ing the evils of drink Another pro-
claims: "This leaAet | am going to show
to my playmates and 1 shall tell them
that alcohol neither strengthens nor
warns nor heals nor nourishes. Alcohol
neither makes riches nor health. There
fore we must never drink alcohol"
The committee pictures the prohibition
policy in the United States as a goal to
be emulated by Germany.

The per capita liquor bill OF the license
states before prohibition was over 500.
The actual per capita expenditure of
drinkers naturally was many times that
sum. Each patron of the saloon con-
sumed the value of several baby" bonds
each year. Much of that sum is now
available for the investment market.
There are approximately six million
more holders of the capital stock of cor
porations today than there were when
prohibition was adopted. Per capita
holdings of the $66,584,42O,424 of such
stock in 1917 averaged 77.3 shares. At
the close of 1923, the last year reported,
the total capital stock amounted to ST.
4o,464,o 25, held by 100000 persons who
average 49.7 shares each. This means a
wider distribution of ownership and the
development of new class from whom
capital for industry may be drawn

cURRAN DEFIEs WET ENEMIES
Rev. J. J. Curran, of Wilkes-barre Not
inundated by Threats of Boot
leggers; VIII Continue Fight

Rev. !. J. Curran, of Wilkesbarre, Pa,
has received letters threatening his life
and threatening to blow up his house if
he does not cease his prohibition enforce
ment activities. In statement issued
March q Father Curran defes his enc
mics branding them as towards. He
furthermore says that he has no inten-
ton of ceasing his law enforcement &C
tiyities. He says:
If there is any lions blood in me it
has now been stirred to the boiling
point. 1t would be foolhardy for me
to do anything unless the prohibition
officials make an honest effort at law
enforcement, but if conditions are not
, changed [ intend to resort to all the
powers at my command to curb this
wholesale violation of law. With
honest cooperation on the part of
government officials | am willing to
carry this proposition through to the
end, with a conference with Presi-
dent Coolidge regarding the situa-
ton as my ultimate goal.

UNITED DRYS OF ENGLAND
Meet the United Distillers and Contest is
on Which Has for Goal Prohibition

Following the news that the big dis
tilling interests of Great Britain have
merged into the greatest liquor corpora
ton the world has ever seen, comes the
announcement that the 81 temperance or
CARNATIONS of Great Britain have joined
forces for forward movement, the final
goal of which is prohibition. "If proh-
bition is a failure in America that is the
sort of failure we want over here" is
the slogan of the amalgamated dry forces
At the head of the forces are such men
as former Chancellor of the Exchequer
Philips Nodin, Lord Aston, conscrvist,
Isaac Foot, liberalst, and Sydney Webb,
laborite. The temperance forces are
steadily gathering strength and plan
popularize the idea of prohibition and
then introduce legislation in Parliament.

PHILADELPHIA GRAND JURYS REPORT
Proposal Advocated Prohibition Unit
Legislation Designed Put These Proposals Into Effect Killed in
Senate by Flibuster Penn Legislature Dereict in Duty

vision of regulations, control of industrial
alcohol, and better control of the whole
alcohol supply to prevent its diversion.
The bills introduced into Congress to
remedy this were defeated by filibuster.
The grand jury ignored the fact that
Philadelphia did not give vote in the
Legislature to enact code to remedy the
situation. The state is just as much re-
sponsible for the existing lawlessness as
the federal government. The federal
government has few officers, while Phila-
delphia alone has $500 policemen and
many other city and county officers.
The greatest weakness of prohibition
enforcement in Philadelphia is the failure
of the courts and the United States dis
trict attorney to use the law to suppress
law1essness. There is enough evidence
available but too few prosecutions.
At first the courts unexpectedly re-
fused to permit 'injunctons until crini
nal cases were prosecuted. Then the
representative of the justice department
at Washington and the prohibition unit
insisted upon libel cases against breweries
because of this unprecedented ruling.
This plan was started but is not being
followed up. They now refuse to start
injunction proceedings where libel cases
have been prosecuted.
Should Use Injunction
If the justice department representative
and courts in Philadelphia will use the in
junction process there will be better en-
forcement. The recommendation to give
the state prohibition director full control
will not help. This was practically done
in Pennsylvania at the beginning of ma
tional prohibition and two directors were
indicted. II there were no check from the
outside there would be worse conditions
in these states that want full control.
Another significant fact is that the
communities where the justice department
representatives are least active are loud
est in their demands for turning the pro-
hibition department over to the justice
department. There is nothing in Phila-
delphia to indicate that this would I'M
prove law enforcement.

BOOTLEGGER DRUGGISTS

Liquor dispensing druggists must go,
declared r. J. Lggett, head of the Retail
Drug Association, speaking to 500 drug
gists at the Hotel Sherman last week.
The boot1egging druggist must be put
out of business, he said, by removing the
sale of liquor from the hands OF all drug
gists.

uation in the Philadelphia area and after
holding more than "a sessions and exam
lining more than $50 witnesses, failed to
return any indictments. The grand jury,
however, made certain specific recon-
mendations that have attracted nation
wide attention. Among its recommended
tons are the following:
Civil service appointments for dry
agents and employees.
Change of prohibition enforcement
from Treasury Department to the
Department of Justice.
Prohibit sale of alcohol from one
distillery to another distillery.
If alcohol is to be denatured re-
qure that that be done where it is
manufactured
Strangely enough this grand jury made
no reference whatever to the fact that
Philadelphia did not give vote in the
Legislature to enact the United Dry Bill
which was designed to remedy among
other things the industrial alcohol evil.
Certain newspapers unfriendly to prohi-
bition have hailed this grand jury's find
ings as evidence that the national prohi-
btion unit is falling down on its law en-
forcement program.
1t must be remembered that the states
have responsibilities as we'll as the federal
government in the enforcement Of the
prohibition law, and Pennsylvania is one
of the states in the Union where state re-
sponsibility has been shirked. Governor
Pinchot did his utmost and the various
temperance organizations of the state did
their best to secure legislation that would
give state officers more authority in con-
trolling the brewery and industrial alco-
hol situation. The jury's recommended
ton that the prohibition enforcement
unit be transferred from the treasury de-
partment to the department of justice is
not in accord with the judgment of the
prohibition enforcement chiefs who, be-
cause of their experience, are better quail
flied to speak on this matter than anyone
else. This question was thoroughly dis
cussed and considered from all angles
when the matter of reorganization of the
prohibition unit was before Congress and
those most interested in bringing about
more effective enforcement of the law
were convinced that it is not the practi-
cal plan. The fact is in Philadelphia one
of the chief reasons for lax enforcement
is the failure of the courts and the United
States district attorney to use the full
power of the law in suppressing lawless-
ness. Therefore Wayne B. Wheeler's
statement is fully justified in comment
ing upon this grand jury's recommended
tions, that the communities where the
justice departments agents are least ac-
tive are loudest in their demands for
turning the prohibition department over
to the justice department. Mr.. Wheeler
said:
