in which they live and move and have
their being. the students largely come
from the great wet cities, especially
New York, and a large fraction of the
students are from the Well-to-do
classes that support wine cellars at
home.
Thus tradition and environment
conspire to moisten these young mems
minds If not their throats. Moreover.
the students are just at that age at
which we are often told prohibition
is corrupting the youth, and with ap-
parent justification.
"If, therefore. anywhere in this
great country prohibition ought TO
prove a rank failure it should be
among such a group of susceptible
young men. I have. therefore, taken
great pains to ascertain the actual
facts in the case, with every desire,
after ascertaining them from every
available source, to face them square
ly, exactly as they are.
"Not relying on my own impress
sions I asked the eight authorities
who are most familiar with student
discipline, as these know the facts at
first hand and far better than any
others. At least two of these eight
men / knew to be strongly opposed
strongly in favor. The attitude of
the other five 1 do not know positive
ly. but believe they are mostly op-
posed"
Prof. Fisher quoted from Frederick
S. Jones, the outgoing dean of Yale
College; c. w. Mendell, the incoming
dean: President James r. Angel OF
the university and others.
Fewer Cases for Discipline.
His own conclusions. based on these
authorities. he gave as follows:
THE number Of discipline cases In
which drinking is a factor is now very
much smaller than before prohibition.
The improvement has been espe-
cially noticeable in the last few years.
"Such drinking as still remains is
often more concentrated and uproar-
ious than before prohibition. When
liquor that was largely beer was easily
obtainable, many got it, got it often
and got it in small quantities. Now
that it Is harder to get, fewer get it,
get 1t more seldom, but when they
do get it, make up for lost time.
prohibition created a defiant atti-
tude in many students. 1t is unpopu-
lar even among many who do not try
to circumvent the law.
Judging from such discussions as
/ have heard, Yale College is no ex
ception. Throughout the country the
same evidence is available that the
present outcry against prohibition
gives an exaggerated picture of the
evils complained Of"

tho declaration of Senator Bruce on

population are going to have their

Attacks Gen. Andrews.
"The second fact of importance
that has been developed is that the
present enforcement authorities are
not In sympathy with the law and
are not trying to enforce it. l had
hoped that Gen. Andrews was really
tryin gto do his duty, but his own
evidence makes it absolutely certain
that he has no sympathy with the
law, and. Of course. he has not really
been trying to enforce 1t. i have long
said that as long as we keep the
liquor interests in charge of the en-
1orcement there would be no
efficient enforcement of the laws. In
the very nature of Mr.. MELONS situa-
ton, being 50 greatly interested in the
liquor business himself. no one could
really expect an efficient enforcement
OF the law from him or from any
organization under him.
Gen. Andrews should be removed
at once, and. of course, the admins
tration of the liquor laws should be
taken out Of Secretary Melons hands.
We can't possibly expect that to be
done unless we have Democratic
Congress.
These hearings have demonstrated
that the prohibition laws should be
strengthened rather than weakened,
and the best possible way 7 know tC
strengthen them is to put them in the
hands of men who are friendly 10

OF men who are interested in violatin"

Sandy now shook the mat at the
window. She felt stifled as though
someone sucked the breath from
her. Her mother was a kind Of
monstrous amoeba seeking to absorb
her children.
Her mother was speaking: 1.-The

Mrs. Mcneil rested her head on

Isabel blinked. Her soft face took

very softly, chidingly: Il thought it

thought he would underestimate only

think only OF your good. 1t didn't

Sandy was about to answer: mo?

would do no good to talk to Isabel.
She would weep. She would come
back tenaciously to her stand. She
was right. so Sandy must be wrong.
Her mother would cling to her ten
cts with blind obstinacy as only
those Of limited intelligence can
cling.
She would plead and insist as long
as there remained breath in her body.

duty to follow.
Yes" thought Sandy hotly. they
had the right to prevent Alice from
marrying Teddy. He wasn't her
equal. He wasn't a mate for a Nc
Neil! They interfered to save Alice
The fact that she didn't want to be
saved was of no moment. Isabel and
Angus wished her to be saved from
this recklessness! Their wish was
more important than poor Ally's

Sandy opened the drawers, clos
ing them with a little bang. Her
mother sighed loudly. This meant
Isabel wished to talk.
"She wants to talk about me, y
thought Sandy, becoming more and
more heated. "She wants to tell me
what my duty is and make sure I'm

Now, Of course, they have a right

She had often heard her mother
say: i've sacrificed my lite-your
father sacrificed his life. for you chill

by these words many times. They
had oppressed her because these two
had brought her here at such ter
rife cost to themselves.
But now, watching her mother
seeing her hopping the tears, hear
ing her audible signs, Sandy had a
feeling of aversion. They hadn't
given life freely, gladly. They
hadn't poured themselves out for
their children. Hadn't forgotten

ings, their beliefs perpetuated with

Because Isabel felt it the duty of
a wife to Surrender; to obey; TO
have no thought for sweetness or
Joy in love, then Sandy too must
believe this the nobler way. She
must put aside all thought Of escape
and ask God to send her children as
a compensation.
