Spices Help the Digestive Process

rika, green peppers and similar sub
stances serve to change the tastes
of common foods and make them
more interesting than they would
otherwise be.
One of the dangers of too much
splicing of food is the possibility that
the appetite will no longer respond
to the simple foods which. must
form the basis of the diet for the
vast majority of us.
The japanese particularly and
other members of certain oriental
religious sects do not eat meat. For
them a special dressing has been
prepared which adds meat flavor
to rice and vegetables generally.
This substance is now sold in the
market under the name of "Ajino-
moto."
Condiments also have been pre-
pared consisting of yeast extracts
which are rich in Vitamin B and
which add flavor to various cereal
dishes. The resources of modern
chemistry are doing much to add to
foods an infinite variety.

The Government Snoops

Nobody loves a snooper. If the federal govern
ment wants the cooperation of the public in prohi
bition observance it must restrict its spies.
nation degraded by official espionage is not free.
This and the lawessness of law officials criticised by
President Hoover responsible for waning respect
for the law
The latest disgrace is in California Federal agents
there have perfected a new method connected with
overlapping Previously they merely tapped private
phone lines Now they obtain from the company the
addresses of confidential telephone patrons The fed
eral agent and telephone employe then make raid
together the latter removing the phone evidence
for the court.
The explanation of the local telephone company
violating its business condolences is that orders by the
United States commissioner and prohibition agents
forced it to do SO. officials of the parent concern,
the American Telephone and Telegraph Company,
however, take the commendabe position that they
will ignore the blanket orders requiring discos
ure Of unlisted addresses and other confidential nfor
nation to dry agents.
Only advance court orders naming specific indi-
viduals and equivalent to subpoena will be recognized
by the A T & T companies according to C. NJ. Brace
len. general counsel.
But whatever the attitude of telephone companies
and whatever the final court decision to validity of
the commissioners order in the San Francisco cases,
the federal enforcement officials by such methods are
guilty of bringing the law and the government into
disrepute.
AS Justice Brandes of the United States supreme
court said in the Seattle overlapping case of two
years ago.
"As a means of espionage Writs Of assistance and
general warrants are but puny instruments of tyr
amy and oppression when compared with wire-tap-
ping Men born to freedom naturally alert to re-
pei invasion Of their liberty by evimnded rulers The
greatest dangers to liberty Turk in insdious encroah
ment by men of zeal wel-meanng, but without I'M
derStendjng.

government officials shall be subjected to the same

1T SEEMS TO ME By HF RF03}S

EOR time thought maybe they
in another 100 years gin might be
scarce, bad in quality and eXpen-
Sive But by now, prohibitionistS
are quite obviously on the run. The
dryness of congress is relatively I'M
important. The moral advantage
has passed to the modif1cationists.
There will be no recital today of
crimes against the Constitution and
humanity itself by savage Volstead-
ians. The thing have in mind is
somewhat more subtle and much
more damning. To me it seems
complete evidence of defeatism on
the part of drys. refer, of course,
to Mrs. Doran's highly publicized
prohibition cocktail.
Almost unconsciously prominent
worker in the enforcement ranks is
giving aid and encouragement to
us, the enemy. In a crude and in
effective way the good lady helps
to perpetuate the memory of things
which were. Even now they are
not dead.
This is no more than the winter
of our discomfort. Can spring be
far behind when even an ardent
dry takes the trouble to celebrate
the name and fame of the cocktail?
Even though the insipid drink which
she suggests is based upon nothing
more than white grapes cut very
fine, she, too, has done her bit for
our cause.

Perhaps some in the party are
strangers to each other. You can
not bring them together in sudden
amity by suggesting that it looks
like a white Christmas. Several
may not have read "a Farewell to

of it?
Surely, romance and the joy Of
life are promoted insufficiently if a
gentleman says to the lady on his
right, 81 think it's a fine book" and
she replies, 81 think so, too" After
that has been put upon the record,

period of brooding.

One Revenue Source

Whether a special session of the leglsla-
ture is required to secure money to keep
open the schools Of the state may be mat
ter of debate.
But there can be no question about the
shocking spectacle of state closing the
doors of schools in country districts and
throwing away hundreds of thousands OF
dollars to assist in the real estate plans OF
Indianapolis
There is something wrong in picture
that locks a schoolhouse because Of poverty
end then duplicates state highways in order
to aid bankers with pull.
The state is thoroughly committed to
policy of roadbuilding and does not protest
against the raising of twenty millions OF
dollars a year through indirect taxation tor
this purpose.
But the people will never be committed
to policy which cxpends those twenty mil
lions, or any part Of them, in extravaganza
or useless roads.
Certainly no one would defend the ex-
penGiture of several hundreds of thousands
of dollars on road that parallels one already
in existence and has little excuse, much less
reason, except that the new highway would
make very valuable tract of land owned by
a bank with whose officers the board men,
hcrs are at least on speaking terms.
If the Governor calls special session OF
the legislature, inquisitive members might
Jelve into corners and crannies on search
Tor funds that viii permit the schools to
operate.
Perhaps it would be possible to abolish
the present board of commissioners and by
substituting experts and banshing political
intrigue, save enough money out of those
twenty millions to prevent the possibility OF
locked doors on the schools.
An expert management of that one de-
partment and the abolition of political in
fuence from its decisions would probably re-
suit in enough saving to run the schools, in
stead of merely aiding them.

Let lis Pick In the Gauntlet

Much surprise and some indignation will be pro-
yosed by the decision Of Judge Virgil Bouldin OF the
Alabama supreme court that under the Alabama law,
1t is as illegal to purchase possess liquor for
sonal use manufacture to offer it for sale
AS the judge put it:
Receiving prohibited liquors into possession, hav-
ing possession, whether by manufacture, gift.
or purchase, and whether held for sale personal
use, is an ofense under the law
The decision will be attacked chiefly by alleging
the absurdity of the Alabama law the extreme ma
ture of the decision of the judge. This. believe,
will miss the main point at issue. 1t is far better
to seek out the fundamental here stake and to
join combat with qubbling.
Whatever the legal technicalitieS there can be no
doubt that the decision Of Judge Boudin is in full
harmony with the desires and intentions of the
jority of those who framed and put the
eighteenth amendment. Though this amendment and
supporting federal legislation may only outlaw the
manufacture sale and transport of liquor it is obvious
that what the prohibtionists really had in mind
the prevention of the consumption OF alcoholic beY-
erages. This is the spirit of the amendment.
It may be technically legal to buy and possess
liquor but such action violates the real spirit of the
eighteenth amendment as much the grandfather
clause and similar subterfuge clash with the spirit
of the fourth and fifteenth amendments.
Realistic opponents of prohibition will do we'll to
admit all this and to lock horns directly with the Wis
dom and basic morality of the whole philosophy and
practice of prohibition The real issue is between
those who desire to drink and those who desire to
prevent drinking. QubDlng over laws and decisions
only obScureS the essentials in the situation
The opponents of prohibition will profit most by
uniting on this underlying issue To dsSipate their
strength by merely attacking and criticsng what they
regard as special nusances in the prohibition cam
paign is as unwise it is for doctor to continue
treating symptoms without resolutely assailing the
real roots of the disease
We should thank Judge Bouldn for actually con-
tributing to the Qualification of the real issues.

japan to the Fore

TINE last naval conference, while
4 establishing the principle of
parity between Great Britain and
the United States, allotted Japan d
tonnage equal to three fifths Of
that maintained by either nation.
Japan now demands an allotment
of 70 per cent.
Not only that, but she demands
the right to apportion the 10 per
cent.
If America is allowed more 10000
ton cruisers than Great Britain, for
instance, Japan insists that she be
allowed 10 per cent of the American
tonnage in this class of ships.
Since she herself perfers sub
marines, she demands the privilege
of reducing the tonnage of other
classes of ships below 10 per cent,
so she may raise her submarine
tonnage aboue 10 per cent.
When Japan's various contentious
are boiled down, one finds that her
desire is submarines, and in this re-
spect, she is backed by France.
Italy, on the other hand, has &C
cepted the British and American
view with regard to submarines,
which is that they are compare
lively useless against battle fleets,
that their effectiveness lies in the
destruction of unarmed, non-com-
bat ships, that this is revolving to
the instincts of humanity, and re-
pugnant to the rules of civilized war.

SCOTS at Subs

NURIOUSLY enough, the French
~ Admiral Castex, who approaches
the problem from the standpoint of
a naval strategist, rather than from
that of diplomat or statesman,
Endorses the British and American
view.
Subject to ordinary precautions,
the admiral says, submarines can
not prevent surface vessels from
conducting offensive operations
against their fleets or in their ter
ritory.
About all they can do, he adds, is
to restrict the liberty Of surface
ships and destroy merchant vessels.
Their efficacy as coast defenders
he considers mediocre, and the late
war appears to bear him out.
The trouble is that many people
seem to have forgotten the lesson
of the late war, especially with re-
gard to submarines.
Submarines sent more than half
the worlds merchant marine to the
bottom of the sea, but they did not
prevent Germany from being beaten.
At the beginning, they wrought
such havoc with surface craft as tc
keep most of the battle fleets in
port, but at the end they we're sue
cumbing like rats to the depth
bomb.
When planes got to work, spying
them out from above, and notifying
destroyers where they were, subma-
rines ceased to be effective, except
against helpless commerce carriers

Conflicting

NNE theory is that when the
~ earth's crust formed, the sub
stratum of glass-like basalt solidi-
fed first and then layer of lighter
GRANTEES solidif1ed above it.
This granite layer was in turn
thought to have been covered by
the universal ocean.
1t is thought, however, that the
crust of the earth still was very hot
and that the imprisonment Of heat
which resulted from the solidif1ca-
ton of the upper layer caused the
lower layer to grow so hot that in
places it again became molten.
This is supposed to have caused
the upper layers to crack. The
heavy molten lavaS then flowed
through in gigantic volcanic erup-
tons overlooking great portions Of
the granite layer.
These portions weighted down by
the heavy basalt lavas are thought
to have sunk, the lavas then solidi-
flying to form the ocean beds.
The portions of the granite layer
which had not been flooded with
lavas then became the present con-
tinents, as the waters of the ocean
flowed into the depressed areas.
This theory has much in its sup
port, but it is not accepted by all
biologists.
That is one reason why any prof.
ect such as that suggested by DR..
ShapIey is so interesting It opens
the possibility of finding new
knowledge which may settle the
claims of conflicting theories.

CALLS FOR VOLUNTEERS
December 10

December 10
ON Dec. 10, 1854, President Linz
~ coin called or 100000 addi-
tional volunteers, although he
had an army Of 100000 men all
ready enrolled.
At the time this call was issued
a federal victory seemed certain
without additional troops, but such
was the courage, resourcefulness Of
audacity in attack and defense
which the Confederates had shown
that Lincoln was the last man TO
relax efforts.
The President called for volun-
teers to serve for one, two or three
years, but those who responded saw
little active service as the war
ended in the following spring.
Today also is the anniversary OF
three other events.
On Dec. 10, 1893, United States
warships were sent to Rio de
Janeiro TO warn against interference
with American shipping.
Seventeen years ago today, on
Dec. 10, 1912, woman suffrage lost
in Michigan by 760 votes.
And on Dec. 10, 1900, John Jay
declined the chief justiceship.
