Governor Moody went into Of

and took from their grasp the
reigns Of office when sentiment
was turned which Ma" Fergu-
son was running things. Jim"
Ferguson was irnpeached during

The vigorous siX-foot "Dan,"

Others view the third term

But every politician, Moody's

TAXES
BY KENNETH CLARK

American authorities ,agree the
enly way to save civilization from
the Eavages of the dope evil is for
world powers to limit opium pro-
duction and manufacture through
concerted action.
That program was vigorously ad.
vanced by the American delegation
at the Geneva opium conference.
Dominant powers at the conference
rejected the plan.
Reap Huge Rewards
A glance at the vast revenues
derived by European governments
from opium production in their
colonies in the Orient gives the
answer.
OF the total revenues of British
Malaga and Hong Kong, 26.4 per
cent comes from opium. For a
five year period, the total was
nearly $1.O00,O00. 900.
The opium revenue in the Neither
land East Indies is 6.5 per cent,
and in French Indo-China. 20 PEE
cent.
For the individual British colonies
and possessions. the opium revenue
follows:
Federated Malay States. 17.S per
cent; Straits Settlements, 1916 per
cent; Hong Kong, 22.2 per cent;
unfederated Malay states, S4.S per
cent: Sarawak, 24.5 per cent; Brunei,
1917 per cent, and British North
Borneo. 40 per cent.
A Double Standard
Concerning the colonial opium
revenues, Miss Ellen N. Lamotte,
an authority on the international
opium trade, declared in letter
to the House Foreign Affairs Com
mittee:
"You can rot feed opium to the
people with one hand and make
anything. but an insincere gesture
with the other.
