GENERAL ANDREWS

The professional prohibtionists who have
started demand for the resignation of Gen. Lin
coin Andrews head of the Federal enforcement
forces, may find they have wind that will
come twisting and tearing back upon them as
whrlwipd
Andrews came into his job after a career as a
soldier and successful executive. He tackled pro-
hibition as a job to be done effectively as he
could do it. He has put his brains and energy into
it, without reservation, and few dispassicnate OBJ
servers will argue that any other in the
place could have got any results than he has
got.
He seems, however, to have one shortcoming,
from the standpoint of the professional reformers
He doesn't deal in bunk. He doesn't exaggerae the
accomplishments of prohibition to date. Not to
win credit for himself does he paint arid des-
ert land where springs flowing.
The professional reformers naturally don't want
that kind OF man. They'd prefer practced politi.
clan.
In this they likely to find they are out Of
tune with the rest of the country. The country
rather likes the frankness of General Andrews 1t
is refreshing in the confusion Of charges and
tercharges to hear his blunt statements of fact
1t will take pretty persistent propaganda to make
the country believe that Andrews hasn't been liv-
ing up to his oath of office, that he hasn't been strv-
ing inelligenty and industriously to place prohbi-
tion the list of enforceable laws Our advice to
these professionals is that they leave Andrews alone
Let him continue to do his best and let him con.
tinue to tell the truth
. The country may may not be satisfied with pro-
hibition But it isn't dissatisfied with Andrews It
isnt-with the exception of two classes: the pro-
fessional reformers and the bootleggers.

THE BETTER REMEDY

Down in Of the Eastern cities a wife Is
charging that her husband and a pretty Sunday
school teacher used church pew as their love
nest"
The pastor OF the church furnishes confederation
to the extent of saying that the parshoners had
nshed the title for the pew because of the fact that
the man and the girl always sat together gripped
hands much more firmly than they did his message.
Had the incident happened in a dimy lighted
movie theaer or had they taken their unconventional
romance to a public dance hail. it is quite certain
that many sincere people would be so shocked as to
demand that censor policeman or more lights
or an injunction be used to prevent any such de-
plorabe affairs in the future
In a secular setting the minds Of many would
have blamed the environment and not emotion for
the defiance of conventional morality
Certainly no one would think of applying any
sort of force to a church or suspect for a moment
that it had any influence whatever to defect minds
and morals of those who caught in their sin
1t is most patent that opportunity had nothing
at all to do with the digressions of these two weak
mortals
But it is history of recent trend of thought to
blame environment and opportunity rather than hU
man weakness when men and women yield to tempta-
tions and result we have various and vociferous
