The Logic OF Black
And White

You can tell a man that thing is true
And you can get another person to back up
your story. And still he may not believe it,
But show it to him in print--in news
paper or book-and the chances are that
he'll admit you're right
So great-rightly wrongly-is the per-
suasve power of print!
There's one place, though, where you can
bank absolutely on the truth and accuracy of
what you read-and that's the A-B-C CLASH
fed Section The watchful ad censor takes
care of that.
And you'll find the logic of these little ads
most convincing when it comes to proving
whether or not you are making the money
you spend go every bit as far as it might.
Here's where 'black and white" establishes
points beyond doubt-and saves your cash
beyond all expectati ions.

THAT REFERENDUM

The necessity for referendum the matter
of prohibition increases with each official action.
The latest order of President Coolidge under
which each constable, sheriff and deputy becomes
Federal officer and agent is amazing.
1t is too wide departure from the old ideas of
this republic to be put into operation without
protest.
1t means, of course, that eventually, all local
government is to be destroyed that in time every
policeman will be a soldier
Just why the President believes that a CON
stable or sheriff or deputy will be more effective or
honest in his work if given a Federal badge is a
mystery.
But what is certain is that the crooked and dis
honest men, and the liquor law furnishes opportunity
for them to plumber and baclmail, would be given
broader powers and unlimited territory The crooked
local officer, armed with a Federal badge would have
his license to operate anywhere in the United States
1t is just possible that the people, if given
chance to vote, would indicate that they are tired
of the law which makes hypocrisy virtue, which,
depends and spies for its enforcement
and which is generally broken to invite disre-
spect for all law.
if the majority want the present law enforced
and indicate that wish at the polls though pr
vatey they may show a different attitude through
their own violations of it, the law be enforced
even if it takes the army to do it.
But every recent incident which gives any clew
to what people thinking about indicates a desire
for some change.
1t is not a demand for the old saloon nor is 1t
demand for liquor, much it is a hope that
the present corruption Of government disrespect for
law, the degradation of boys and girls through hip
TASKS be replaced by some law which people will
obey and respect.
The first case in Indiana of an arrest under
which private citizen informed on a man who Of
fered him drink is yet to be fled-and theoretically
it is the duty of every citizen to make such a COM
plant.
Now comes the drastic thing of making a Fed
eral agent of every constable the foundation of
cheka.
Perhaps the people want that, too. They may
wish to throw away the bill of rights They may no:
rebel against any change of government that may be
necessary to enforce prohibition even to the bank
ruptcy of the Government
1t is time for the people to vote on this matter
to give sanction for complete enforcement or to de-
mand a change of systems.
referendum should be welcomed by the dry
forces as proof of their position The vets would
be forever sienced if the claims of the AntiSaloon
League are 10 per cent correct

SINCLAIR LEWIS


Since the celebrated author of Main Street."

toriety.
Perhaps such assumption is justified; per-
haps again, it isn't. Certainly 1t isn't weakened
by the fact that Lewis went out Of his way to at
tract attention to himself by disappearing from
Kansas City pulpit.
1t may have been consistent with the mans ini-
patience with Observation-Disclosures set forth so prof
itably in Main Street" and "Babbitt"-that he
should lay his watch before him and then invite
upon himself the wrath Of the Creator but 1t hardly
good taste.
To the degree that he evoked large gobs of dis
gust from citizenry that is not fond of such exhibit
tons Of sensationalism, to that degree also has he
awakened the suspicion of those who otherwise
might acclaim his spurning of the Pulitzer award
as a staunch stand in a good cause.
Certainly the Pulitzer committee has invited at

SOME DIFFERENCE

Every wage Garner in this country should read
the following quotation;
"The possession Of Muscle Shoals by private
and selfseeking interests that would exploit these
great properties for their selfish aims, the bene
fits of what should be returned to the people whose
money paid for them, is in direct opposition to the
original purposes and little less than insult TO
the integrity and stability of the great American
Government and a prostitution of the confidence OF
American people"
That is what the Alabama Federation Of Labor
thinks about the proposed lease of Muscle Shoals
now pending before Congress.
1t is what wage everywhere should
think.
If the Government operates Muscle Shoals, wage
earners everywhere are going to have more money.
For Government operation will break the back of the
national power combine and force it to supply the
Nations wage earners with reasonably cheap cleo
trcity for their homes.
There is lot of difference for the family pocket
book between 10 cents and cents kilowatt hour.
