Will the Warning Be Needed?
(From the Harve Daily News)
The survey of liquor sold in Great
Falls and northern Montana, which is
being made by The Tribune by secur-
| ing a chemical analysis of moonshine
whisky available in various places,
should prove contribution of con-
siderable value to those who simply
must have" their liquor, and even
more so to many fathers and mothers |
of boys and girls who are confronted I
with temptations almost daily to
"ioin with the bunch and be real
fellow"
"Much of the whisky now avail
able,' says The Tribune, lis deadly in
its effect and poisonous in its con-
tent on the basis of the analysis made
by Dr. T. F. Walker, local chemist
and pathologist, and comparison of
the results of the recent tests with
those made previously of like intoxi-
cants indicates clearly that the
whisky now being sold is being mar
keted without consideration of it's
quality
This information, no matter how
widely it may be broadcast, will mean
little to the man or woman who is so
determined to drink that they will
make any sacrifice to satisfy their
craving appetite. But the express
sions deadly and poisonous" should
sound warning which ought to be
heard by those who still believe that
sound mind and body is worth more
than a thirst satisfied by rotten
moonshine or that the building of
: character is more deserving of atten-
ton than the popular accord of
their Crowd. 1t may take lot Of
courage to say "no" sometimes, but
he who, in order to reach his goal,
: must always have the plaudits of his
: associates and travel in their foot
!, steps-even though he knows them to
, be headed in the wrong direction
will find some day that he is lacking
2 something which is essential to sue
d cess.
The Montana Farmer comes out
with an editorial concerning the Fed
S eral Farm Board, in which they say:
6 Farm leaders are greatly disap-
: pointed over the federal farm boards
Interpretation of the farm marketing
: law as expressed by the members
t during the examination before the
r senate committee.
: at now seems clear that the boarc
does not intend to do asything more
than assist co-operatives in an or
derby marketing program so thai
they may get the best average price
obtainable on the world market bas
is. 1t will make no effort to 81
handle sterilization corporations tina
the tariff may be made effective oil
crops of which this country produces
an exportable surplus. A number o
farm leaders take the position tina
this is a very narrow Interpretation
of the law and that the board is no
taking full advantage of the provi
sions of the act to aid agriculture.
"This stand of the farm board i
apparently having the effect of spur
ring on the advocates of the expor
debenture plan and it now seems Ger
tain that the farm bloc in the senat
will try to tack the debenture provi
sion onto the tariff measure. Bio
members take the stand that mas
much as the export debenture pla
would simply make the tariff effec
tive on our exportable surplus tn
logical place for it is as part of tn
tariff measure. This maneuver woul
place congressman who favor the tai
if, but oppose the export debentur
in a rather embarrassing position.
