San Francisco, Aug. 28.-[P)--The
flight Of Commander John Rodgers
and his crew Of four, was the third
OF y trio Of historic air adventures
by the military and naval forces
Of the United States, no less great
than the other two ventures. although
It did end in failure and near tragedy.
The first was the crossing of the At
lantic BY the naval seaplane NC-4.
and the second the circumnavigution on
Of the globe BY army airmen.
In two great double motored sea
planes, the PN-9 No. and the PN-g
No. 3, built especially for this cruise,
Commander Rodgers and Lieut.. Allen
r. Sn0dy set out from u choppy lee
mooring in San Pablo bay, an arm Of
San Francisco bay, shortly after noon
Aug. 81. 1925, with Hawaii rs their
destination. Snody, commanding the
PN-0 No. 3 was forced to descend
because Of broken oil feed line off
San Francisco Rodgers had the flight
to himself in the No. 1.
He was heard from regularly
throughout the remainder of the day
and most of the next day. With the
near Spproach Of the subtropical
night ON Sept. 1, however, he flashed
the nearest destroyer that he was
going through '.hellish" storm and
that his supply Of gasoline was Civ.

am monty glad to see you. l was just
a-thinkin' about our experience five
years ago when you and me and lot
of the other boys was ridin' that old
Republican bus and enjoyin' ourselves,
when all sudden-like the left hind
wheel struck one of them mud holes
the Dimmycrats dug in the road and
me and you fell off the bus and got
bruised up considerable, and l was
feeling purity sore and mad as blue

j. w. at the wheel, and stops and

J. w. says, Boys, here is the pump;
pump them tires up and 1 think she
will go all right Jake, you recillect
how we pumped and sweat and finally
got her goin' agin, and then pretty
soon she spit couple times like a
mad cat and stopped agin, and ]. w.
says, Boys, she's out Of gas, but you
boys push and l will steer her and I
think we can get her to town yet By
and by, footsore, tired and hungry, we
did get her to town, and ]. w. says
Thanks, boys, for the joy ride
"Jake, you recollect when you and
me started to walk back home and
you says, "Joe, how's you feelin?"
and says Jake, if there wasent any
room for Republican plates after we
pushed so hard on that old flivver.'
But say, Jake, old pal, dident we feel
good when we got back to the old Re-
publican camp. Well, Jake, l see by
the newspaper that two many of our
boys climbed on that old Republican
bus for a ride to town this fall, and
when she got goin' pretty lively some
of the boys got posselled off and got
bruised bit, and now that same old
Dimmycrat flivver has come along
again with J. w. at the wheel and he's
BLOWN that old horn loud and long
| and askin' the boys to come and take
a ride to town on that old fiivver, but
he amt sayin' word about Rringin'
them back. Say, Jake, if you get a
chance tell the boys about our trip.
Well, We say We must be goin'? So
long, Jake; I'll see you November
IL. Oh, yes, Jake, set down just
moment; forgot to tell you about my
trip to Baltimore. She's some big
town, I tell you. She's noted for
Dimmycrats and damp climate. She's
got lot of big houses with big ma
chimes in them; but say, Jake, the big
gest machine of them all is the DIM
mycrat machine. They call it Al Rit-
chie's machine, and by the way, Jake,
they tell me about five years ago this
machine didn't seem to be workin' puff
! fectly until ]. w., from old Garrett,
went down thar and looked at that old
machine He says, Boys, 1 can tell
you what's rong with that machine;
| she needs more cogs in the master
\ wheel So ]. w. and the boys got to
! work on her and put in about fourteen
more cogs in that machine and now
they say if J. w, will come down this
/ winter and help them put in some
more cogs in the master wheel they
1will be able to run her over the big

the taste of it, a child refuses the
burning sensation-calls him to take
just one more. The lines of the pic
ture have faded, the headache has dis
appeared and he goes back for anoth-
er debauch, always, in the early days,
at least under the urge of some one
else whose own mind has grown
stodgy or whose pocket will be profit
ed. And he thinks they are friends!
Lying tools of a hellish business, all
of them. There is nothing better
settled in the thinking of the world
than that alcohol in any form or any
quantity is a habit forming drug in
the body. Therein lies it's peril and
the man who attempts to create it in
any other for the sake of gain is no
friend of the race. He is simply
criminal and the man who is taken in
by him is sadly gulled. The Baltimore
Sun, in reporting a Christian citizen
ship conference some years ago, said,
Zone seldom sees in gathering of
the same size so many faces on which
competence is written" Yet that is
the same crowd that the same paper
often damns as fanatics.
THE PERSONAL LIBERTY PLEA.
The law abridges personal liberty.
Every law abridges personal liberty in
some fashion. The minimum wage
law abridges the liberty of an employ
er to pay me a wage that l might
otherwise accept. The hour day
abridges my right to work longer. The
speed law abridges my right to run
my own car as / wish. The law
against murder abridges my right to
settle personal difference with an
other. Law always abridges personal
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1926-10-28

liberty that it may confer the posi-
bility of civilization upon the race.
What personal liberty does this par
ticular law abridge? Not my right
to make alcohol, that is conceded in
all cases, but my right to make appe-
tite by selling it for beverage purpos-
es. We forbid the sale of drugs for
the same reason. Now liberty to
curse another is mighty poor sort to
plead for.
THE DEMANDS OF A NEW DAY.
America is becoming more and
more machine served land. In every
field it has been introduced and has
vastly multiplied the productivity of
human strength. 1t has cut down
hours of labor, it has fostered a re-
creative use of the leisure secured
thru its use, it has increased our
wealth beyond the dreams of Midas
so that the poor mans car rattles
along every highway. In the words
of Henry Ford, Booze had to go out
when modern industry and the motor
car came in. Upon only one condition
can the nation safely let it come back
that is, if we are willing to abolish
modern industry and the motor car"
For it disturbs the accuracy of
mans judgment and slows up his
muscular response. Give him control
of high powered machine either in
the factory or upon the road and
death stalks with him. Even the ad-
vocates of beer and wine are not will
ing to ride behind boozing engineer.
Granted the return of beer and wine
where will it be sold? At present we
have no license plan so that every
grocery becomes possible rurveyor.

Brown had been out with the boys
the night before. Wounds follow that

strife has come thru their own loosen

Under the picture is the warning

the evils of the drink traffic, outlawed
because of it's Ubiquitous attacks upon
everything wholesome in our Ameri-
can life. That most of the noise in
favor of "wine and beer" comes not
from the drinkers but from the sellers

Or if the special license plan is set up
then we have again the same old
saloon that was here before and the
same difficulty of control that Georgia
found in her "Near Beer" days. There
is no alternative between bringing
the saloon back or in the enforcement
of the present law. There is little
argument needed for any group con-
nected with the church as to which
course is the proper one to pursue.

THE PORTRAIT.
That old artist had a permanent
model from which to copy, for the
picture is as readily recognized now
as when it was earliest drawn. Drunk
enness never develops anything new.
From the day Noah found wine to be
a mocker to the hour when some man
slips through the back fence and fills
himself with "hootch", there has been
the same stagger, beastiality, and
morning after" The figure that could
be seen in any alley and now turks in
forbidden places has never changed a
feature. The first line seems borrowed
from the shouting of drunken revel
"Who says woe? Who cries alas 2"
"For we are all jolly good fellows"
is the early song. But with self con-
troll gone there rises swift contention
and the complaining whine. Every
one except himself is to blame for
everything. Society, circumstances,
his hard hearted employer, his wife,
and all things except his own respon-
sibility for the conditions that exist.
