Methodists Think No
Liquor Used in u. S.;
Dry Europe Could Pay

WASHINGTON, Aug. America is
prosperous because It no longer
spends its earnings for liquor, says the
Methodist board of temperance, pro
hibition and public morals. The board
in press statement, argues. that the
war did not cause the contrast be-
tween the economic condition Of
Europe with that in America, but that
the annual drink bill of the American
people, which was about $2,438,O 0O, 900
before the war and would reach S.
OOO,OO0,0OO in this years prices, was
the burden that kept America back
with the old world.
Weird Economic Theory.
Europe was perhaps able to deal
with its drink loss before it sustained
its war injuries" says the board. but
the continuation of these losses on
top OF the war losses makes a situa-
ton impossible with which to deal
Great Britain at present is spending
a little short of $4,000, 100000 a year
on drink. France was in 1921 spend
ing 1S,500,000,000 francs for LIQUOR.
Seven countries in Europe, with an az
gregate population of $4,000, 900, sup
ported drink expenditure Of approx
mately s4,1sO,OOO.OO0.
Sober, Poor and Patriotic.
1T may be said calmly and in a
spirit of the deepest sympathy with
the troubles of Europe that the gov
eminent of the United States has no
moral right to subsidize European tax,
payers with money taken from the
pockets of Americans, so long as Euro.
peans are spending for drink sums
which in a few years would discharge
the American debt. The money lent
to Europe was obtained from the
pocketbooks of day laborers in our
geat cities, confeld hands of the
middle west Negro washerwomen OF
the far south and other persons who
are wretchedly poor, but none the
less patriotic citizens"

FOUR THOUSAND
STRIKE QUEBEC
CLOTHING SHOPS
A. c. w. Hopes to Get
Unorganized Out

MONTREAL, Queb. Aug. 2.-FP)-
Four thousand workers in the mems
clothing industry are on strike here.
They are members Of the Amalga-
mated Clothing Workers of America.
Demands of the strikers are: Recog-
milton of the union by manufacturers
who have refused such recognition;
establishment of collective bargain
ing; improvement Of working condi-
tons.
About 100 manufacturers have al
ready recognized the union, and the
employees of 46 non-union shops have
joined the walkout. 1t is expected
that workers in all remaining non
union shops will come out; that would
make 5000 strikers in all. Joseph
Schlossberg, international secretary Of
the A. c. w. of A., is here directing
the fight.
Two-thirds Of the employees in the
unorganized shops, 1t is declared, have
been receiving an average of $40 a
week, while the remainder were paid
an average Of $1S week. Nine pick
cts were arrested on the first day of
the strike.

1859 votes, Superior Court Judge
Jesse Holcomb for a second time has
denied Trude his petition for a re-
count.

In making his decision Holcomb
declared that with his ruling against
the petition, it is not possible for
Trude to appeal to any other court
Trade and his attorneys are preparing
to carry the case into the Illinois su-
preme court over Holcomb's ruling
The supreme court meets in October
and as it will take a month to get a
decision and will take another month
to recount the 1927 Cook county pre-
cincts, it is believed that Trude will
not succeed in gaining the nominal
ton in time for the election.
Holcomb based his ruling for throw
ing out the petition on the grounds
that the petition should not have been
filed with the superior court but with
the circuit court. Trude cannot appeal
to the circuit now as his fve-day
leave to file petition for recount has
expired.
Seek Favorable Judge.
When the petition was first filed at
torneys representing the Deneen-Lun-
din7Small gang in the republican party
had it arranged so that the petition
would be argued before a Judge that
was favorable to their machine and
was opposed to the Crowe-Barrett.

democrat bipartisan alliance.
Holcomb Aids Grove.
An objection to allowing the petit
ton to be heard by this judge was
made by the executive committee Of
the superior court by Grove Barrett's
lawyers and the case was transferred
to Judge Holcomb. Turnout the en-.
tire trial Holcomb showed his hostility
to Trude and his friendship for the
observation-disclosures candidate.
AT one time when the lawyers for
Trude were arguing with him for
rehearing of his decision he walked off
the bench and It was only after much
criticism that he decided to grant a
rehearing.

Eller Gave Them Jobs,
Precinct Worker Won't
Testify in Vote Quiz

Republican precinct captains of the
twentieth ward have refused to give
any information regarding the conduct
of the voting in the Eller bailiwick
during the last primaries. The special
grand jury investigating vote frauds
ran up against a stone wall because
Morris Eller, the political boss OF the
ward, has been so good to his workers
and captains that they won't open
their mouths.
A number OF them said they were
holding soft jobs in the sanitary dis
trict. Each one said with emphasis,
Morris Eller got me the job" And
that's as far as the committee could
get.
