WET LOGIC

The fatal crash of Aviator Stultz at
Roosevelt field, causing his own death and
that Of two passengers, has been at
tributed to the fact that the famous star
flyer had been drinking and was in
capaciated for his job
Commenting on this distressing fact,
the New York EUening Post makes re-
mark, Prohibition almost certainly gave
Stultz rotten whisky"
That is about as fine specimen of wet
reasoning as we have seen.
The speakeasy which broke the law Is.
by implication, relieved of responsibility.
The man who, fully aware of the perils
of his task, fully conscious of the clear
ness of mind and steadiness of nerve it
requires, yet INDUCED his appetite for
liquor and, thus untitled for his work, as
sumed responsibility for the lives of
others, was, apparently, blameless.
Prohibition did it. Prohibition gave
Stultz rotten whisky"
Why the adjective "rotten?" The i'm
plication is that if Stultz had been able TO
get good" whisky everything would haEe
been all right. We wonder if the editor
of the New York EOening Post really be-
lieves that what he might call good"
whisky is safe beverage for aviators?
Would he be willing to trust his life to
pilot who had just come from drinking
even the best prewar stock?
If Stultzz had got drunk in a licensed
saloon would he have been any more
capable of flying than he was after get
ting drunk in a speakeasy?
The worst that can be said for prohibi-
ton is that it failed to prevent this trag-
edy of laWless sale and uncontrolled ap-
petite.-Chicago EUening Post.

REV. CARL J. ANDREEN

Mr.. Andreen was sixty-eight years of
age. He had been a pastor of the
Swedish Methodist denomination since
1888 and had occupied pulpits in Iowa,
Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, and New
York. At one time he was Presiding FL
der of the Lake Superior District of the
Northern Swedish Conference He leaves
TO mourn his departure his devoted wife,
a daughter, Mrs. Esther Cooke, and two
brothers, Eric and Lars Anderson.
Few men sense injustice and wrong as
quickly and accurately at did Carl An
dreen While ne was strong and firm in
his convictions he was always kind and
gracious His was a stalwart character.
To know him was to trust him implicitly.
Carl Andreen couldn't be unkind; he
couldn't be unrefined in his speech or in
his manner; he couldn't be careless; he
couldn't be rungrateful. All these were
wholly foreign to his great, Christian SOUL

efficient organizer, an indefatigable work.

in the political state, which was neces-
sary and paramount for the well being of
society. These police powers destroyed
neither Magma Charta nor any consti-
tuition. The act and the thing, with its
use, must be judged by its effects, and
when they brought it within the reason
and mischiefs of the law the power of
government must regulate them We had
a right to our gold and silver, and the
disposal of it. yet could not coin it.. We
might labor and rest yet were disallowed
to become idlers, vagrants or .vagabonds.
We might dispose of our property, yet no
right to gamble it off. And to punish the
effect we might remove the cause. Judge
ScateS delivered the opinion of the court.
The prohibitory bill came again before
the Legislature in 1855 That body was
unexpectedly Republican, or rather
fusion" by combination of Wings and
anti-NebraSka Democrats. For the first
time in the history of the state, since the
organization of the Whig and Democratic
parties, it was not in the control of the
latter. The bill, after being amended by
the Senate, passed both Houses, and un-
der the submission clause went before the
people for approval.
Wet and Dry Arguments.
1t may not be uninteresting to give an
idea of the arguments advanced for and
against the measure. The opponents held
that drinking men must be restrained, if
restrained at all, by convincing their
judgment that dissipation led to ruin and
death; by conviction that temperance
was the way to prosperity, happiness,
health and longevity; that their SYM
pathies must be enlisted in the cause by
moral suasion, which was the only ef-
fectual lever to bear on such work; that
penal and prohibitory laws had in every
instance, proved total failure, and were
calculated to provoke resistance It was
hard to establish the belief that liquor
was not property which men might not
defend from destruction, and the prin-
ciple was the same whether ten dollars
worth of liquor was destroyed or ten mil
lions worth.

LITTLE HOPE FOR VETS

In a sermon at the Walnut Hills Meth.
odist Church, Cincinnati, the pastor,
Rev. F. J. Hoffman, spoke on the topic
"Our Responsibility in the Cause of Pro-
hibition"
While DR.. Hoffman admitted that con-
ditions to-day are not satisfactory, he did
contend that they are SO infinitely better
under the Eighteenth Amendment than
under the old regime that there is no
comparison between the two.
"When we talk about getting rid of the
evils of prohibition" he said, '1et us be
reminded of a few things that can not
be done. We can not repeal the amend
ment. To do SO would require two
thirds vote of both Houses of Congress
and then the ratifying of this action by
three-fourths of the states. The law
never can become a dead. Letter while
temperance sentiment is growing through
out the country.
Editors of the wet press might help
a bit by playing fair to the drys. They
are compelled daily to read wet press
with news that is misleading. Only fact
and fairness in the end will win, and win

ALCOHOLISM DECLINES,
HOME SOCIETY FINDS

Less than 1 per cent of the 262 broken
homes receiving attention of the Boston
Children's Friend Society last year were
caused by drunkenness of the father, ac-
cording to the 95th annual report by the
society.
Before prohibition this percentage was
much higher, records of the institution
show, about 20 per cent of such cases be-
ing due to alcoholism of the family head.
At no time since 1920 has the percentage
exceeded 3 per cent, and it seems to be
steadily decreasing each year. officials OF

The friends of the bin argued that as
the people of this state were laW-abiding
they would not resist so beneficent law.
Every man in society or government had
to yield something of his savage liberty
the liberty of each was circumscribed by
the equal liberty of all. The effect of in
temperance in producing crime and pau
perism called for taxation to defray and
support a double wrong. 1t might de-
stroy a husband or son, in whom the
wife or mother had right of support
a form of property. If liquor was prop
erty, so was iron, yet convert that iron
into counterfeiting tools it became con-
traband and lost the character of prop
erty. ALI things were sacred until desc
Grated. Man was entitled to personal lib
erty, yet inebriation would subject him TO
arrest under police regulations; liberty
was regulated by law; governments were
instituted among men to promote their
general welfare, and prevent wrong and
injury to the rights of persons and prop
erty. The general good of the people was
the object of all law, and whatever stood
in the way of its attainment should be re-
moved by appropriate legislation. Final
ly, it simply resolved itself into a question
whether intemperance was an evil, and
whether intoxicating liquors produced in
Vets Circulate Forged Copies OF La1o to
Defeat it.
The Hon. B. S. Edwards, lawyer of
ability and eminent standing framed the
bill and labored earnestly before the peo-
pie to secure it's adoption; many others
influenced by philanthropic motives did
the same. The State received a pretty
thorough canvassing by speakers and the
press. But politicians, craven set, with
an eye ever to the future of their personal
advancement, stood aloof from it. The
opponents circulated garbled copies of it
among farmers, with forged interpo1a-
tious, forbidding the manufacture and
sale of cider. The bill read, if man was
found drunk and committed breach of
the peace, he should be arrested. From
this the words committing breach of
the peace" were omitted. 1t was further
characterized as the great abomination of
modern times-it circumscribed the privi-
lege of the citizen, it outraged his free
conscience, and by it's adoption liberty
would be crushed. The bill was defeated
before the people by small aggregate
majority. The southern counties voted
and mostly against it, and the northern,
with the exception of Cook and Rock Is
land, for it.
