PROHIBITION NOT
 ECONOMIC FAILURE
So Declares Prof. Irving Fisher
 Of Yale

St. Louis, Dec. 2S R-Professor Irving Fisher of Yale university told the American Economic association in convention here today that al- though he had made thorough canvass Of the members he was un- able 10 get any speaker who would attack prohibition on purely eco- homie grounds.
 Professor Fisher. a dry advocate, who conducted a round table of pro- hibition, added that there are many economists who oppose prohibition on other than economic grounds.
 One of those who spoke in favor of prohibition was Henry M. Leland of Detroit, S3-year-old founder of the Cadillac Motor Car company.
 My very decided views on the dry law" Leland said, "are based on my experience In operating large plants employing from 1000 to G. coo men. I am convinced that the open saloon. the brewery and the Gistillery are far and away the most wasteful, the most destructive forces in cour country.
 q am also convinced that the eighteenth amendment has already been a great blessing 10 the United States. that it is largely responsible for and should be credited with many of the elements of present prosperity"
 Professor Frank W. Blackmar of the department of sociology of the University of Kansas took Kansas as the best example of "a continuous struggle. for more than 40 years, with all phases of the liquor prob lem"
 There were violations" he said. "but the law was finally and reason- ably oheyed. just as other laws have been reasonably obeyed by a great ma jority of the people,"

 Up Someone Else

John Timko. aged 32, of 39 Daily avenue. charged with operating an automobile while under influence ot
 liquor. pleaded nolo contendre in po-
 ice court this morning and was given the customary penalty of a $l00 fine and five days jail sentence. Tn order to allow him time to at tend to business affairs. he gave mo- tice of an appeal in $500 bonds, and will go to jail after New Years.
 Officer David Doty arrested Tim ko early Christmas morning on Pennington avenue. Timko was alone in an automo' ile which was duched in a snowbank a short dis 'ance from Lasalle street. and ac- ,ording to the officer, he was under influence of liquor. He was trying 10 get the car onto the road and the rear end struck telegraph pole, according 10 the officer.
 Attorney NJ. A. Sexton put Ilmko on the witness stand and asked nm about the circumstances Of his ar rest, with the purpose in view of nroying that he had not been driv- ing the car prior to his arrest. nm ;o said he closed his gasoline illllhg station at Spring and North streets about midnight Christmas eve and had drinks with some friends. lie accompanied them to Lasalle street but did not drive. As they were driving to the home of one Of the party, the car skidded and although the motor was running, the car was edged in the snow.
 Timko said he then took the dr'V- CTS wheel and was trying to guide he car back onto the road. Ills comnanions left him and when Offl- ror Dotv came along, he was alone lIo admitted he had been drinking ,ut denied he had touched the wheel until the car hit the snowbank.
 Officer Doty testified that he could not see the driver of the car unul u stopped. He saw nobody put Timko. and the latter pleaded Wlth him not to bring him to the police station He offered me anything, money or anything else" the officer said on being recalled to the Wit ness stand by Prosecuting Attorney Woods.
 Attorney Sexto.. made plea TOT ,cnicncv. He realizes, he said, that inc local court has made practice of imposing fines and jail sentences in these cases, but in view of the cir cumstanccs he believes the rule might be broken with justification. Timko is a good fellow" and in re- fusing to name the driver. he Is foolishly trying to protect a friend, he said. Judge filling remarked that a friend who would run away under the circumstances does not appear to be deserving of protection.
 Well, your honor, Officer Doty IS not too clear on some points of his testimony" Attorney Sexton said
 q believe he is more apt to be clear than Timko. who adml's ne was full of liouor.' the judge replied, passing sentence. Attorney Sexton asked that the jail sentence be sus- pended until after New Years. and Judge filling replied that he does not make a practice of doing so, but if Timko wishes. he may take an

The Chestnut Blight

Cutting down a tree because it is
sick seems drastic. Yet the director
of the Appalachian forest experiment
station is advising people all through
the east to cut down their chestnut
trees. The chestnut blight is spread
ing irresistibly, he says, and no means
have been found to combat it.
''The best thing to do is to chop
down the good remaining chestnut
trees, worth millions of dollars; use
them up and permit nature to grow
other kinds Of trees in their places"
Perhaps this is necessary. I'm
doubtedly, if the forestry people ad-
wise it, it is wise at least to abandon
hope for profit from chestnut trees,
and set the mind resolutely to the
growth of other woods. But chestnut
trees are lovely in themselves, the
nuts are valuable as food, and the
wood is delightful in interior use.
Every lover of these trees will hope
that before many years the forestry
researchers may find some means of
preventing or curing the blight and
restoring to our children's children
the beauties enjoyed by the earlier
jewellers in America.
