Personal Liberty.

There is no subject that arouses the
fury of some people as does the men
ton of prohibition, or the eighteenth
amendment. Why? Because the Vol
stead act treads upon the sacred rights
of personal liberty.
But how sacred are our personal lib
critics? Why is it that we take all
sorts of infringement of our personal
liberties as matter of course, but
when it comes to prohibition of liquor
we get rabid about it? Can it be that
the liquor interests have put some
thing over on us by years of propa-
ganda? Where do we get the idea
that our personal liberties have been
trampled in the dust, if we cannot
drink what, when, and where we
please?
Prohibition of alcoholic liquors is
the outstanding issue of the world
today. The liquor interests are fight
ing every inch of the way because it
deprives them of enormous sums of
money and great political power.
They can best arouse fighting force
for their personal interests by talk
ing about the infringement of personal
liberty.
Did we have any prohibitions of
personal liberty before the enactment
of the eighteenth amendment? Ger
tainly. For instance, it was unlawful
to buy, sell or use narcotic drugs. 1t
is not good for an individual or a
people to use narcotics, so it became
necessary to prohibit their use ex-
cept by the order of doctors. 1t has
long been unlawful for the individual
to carry a concealed gun. Gun toting
is not safe for the public, hence pro-
hibited. 1t became necessary for the
public welfare to prohibit the manu-
facture or sale of canned goods, bot
tied goods, package goods, patent med
icines, etc., without the net contents
and the ingredients being named on
the label. Our pure foods and drug
cause people needed protection from
the INSCRIPTIONS manufacturers and
dispensers.
Every law is an infringement upon
the personal liberties of somebody,
and intended to be that, without any
apologies. You cannot drive your car
where you please or as you please, or
leave it where you may want to. But
the automobile manufacturers have
never created a propaganda society
with millions to spend agitating how
your personal liberties have been
trampled upon.
Be sensible on the matter of law.
There are some foolish ones, and some
almost useless ones, but it is because
of the personal liberty cranks that
laws have to be made lest these cranks
overstep the rules of propriety and
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1928-04-19

courtesy and harm those who need
no laws to govern their conduct.
The greater the population the more
complex become our social and eco
nomic relations. If you are out alone
in forty-acre field you can do as
you please, and nobody is harmed, but
when you come in contact with other
folks you have to play the game ac-
cording to rules laid down for the
public welfare.
The good citizen will concede that
the tremendous good to the economic
and social welfare of a great country
so far outweighs the sacrifice of his
personal liberty on matter of drink
that it is real craftsmanship to give
the eighteenth amendment fair trial
before ridiculing, condemning or vio-
lating its purposes.-Successful Far

to take this opportunity to thank the
Modern Woodmen for the movie which
was presented free of charge by them
last Wednesday evening. The movie,
which consisted of several long reels,
was enjoyed by young and old as was
also the speech given by the man who

at the expense OF Jack Sharkey, the

Mcmahon, who went into 34-houR

the Boston battler refused to sign
for the Risko bout when the only
prize held out to the winner was =

Sharkey finally eapitula4ed
when shown a telegram pufpOrt
ing to have been sent by Richard
and declaring that the SharlEey.
RisleO winner would be- matched
with Tunney.
''The telegram was simply prop'

was a neat bit Of matchmaking

Sharkey, who has Just realised that
he signed exclusively for the Risko
fight, was left holding the bag. He
must either meet the Delaney
