EXPENDITURES ON ARMAAiENTs.

Since 1928 these figures have under
gone certain changes, but the fact re-
mains that expenditure on ornaments
has increased enormously since 1913.
This armament race is grave dan
ger to international relations, the threat
Of q new war, which lies in excessive
ornaments, has a disturbing effect on
economic enterprise, hampering de-
velopment to an extraordinary degree:
If Europe were ruled in the spirit OF
peace instead of under the shadow OF
national rivalry, her recovery from the
World War would be much farther ad-
vanced, and she would be able to with
stand the shock of the world crisis with
greater fortitude. We venture to say
that the present crisis would not have
been so severe If the spirit of peace and
cooperation had prevailed in interna-
tional politics after the armiStice. These
principles alone can bring security" to
the nations.
This brief survey should be SUFFICIENT
to emphasize the Importance Of the Dis
armament Conference which will be
held in February, 1892. Even If it is
chiefly Of European interest, dealing
especially with disarmed Germany and
her heavily armed neighbors, it will
also have bearing on the relations be-
tween other nations.

failure would be serious, as it would
mean that the nations would be gov
erned in a spirit Of anxiety and fear,
even more than they are today.

In other words this publisher OF ma
tion-wide string of papers wants the
world to believe that the church people OF
America and others who have written the
Eighteenth Amendment into the consti-
tuition are fanatical in their adherence to
the prohibition policy and yet he goes
right on to create for us this scintillatlng
jewel of wet fanaticism.
The young people at the party
might have had q little claret or
little harmless beer, and could have
gone home without injury, without
crime. without death.
Isn't it rich! The aforesaid article oc-
cupying the most prominent place on page
one and two of a Sunday edition of his
alleged newspaper is one Wearisone repe-
tition of false reports and glaring eXag-
gerations of one drinking party which ar
ticle constitutes classic in fanatical wet
reporting.
The vets make me tired in their con-
slant reporting of the prosperity of the
Kelley institute at Dwight, Ill They never
tell you of the other 321 liquor cures all
out of business. The concentrating Of
what is left of alcoholism at Dwight may
or may not show an increase of business
in that institution. Most institutions that
have great prosperity find it necessary to
enlarge their buildings, but at Dwight the
Kelley institute leases its larger buildings
to the government for a veterans school.
We grow exceedingly weary Of the con-
slant charge that there is more drinking
and more alcoholism than ever before,
when as matter of fact the alcoholic
wards, so necessary in the saloon days,
have been closed and cur own BridcWeu

hospital was abandoned years ago. Such
cases Of alcoholism as we now have are
accommodated in the county hospital
Our Chicago Woman's prison, which in sa-
loon days was thronged with three or four
hundred unfortunate women, had on
Tuesday of this past week, December 16,
las prisoners
When preaching at this prison some
time ago I asked the matron how she ac-
counted for the small audience she gave
me and she answered. I'm the old saloon
days we were compelled at times to put
cots in the corridors to care for the great
crowd of drunken women. One word eX-
plains the situation as against what we
have noW-WHISKY!"
A result of the persistent false wet re-
porting so common in our city press. is the
destruction Of confidence in the integrity
Of the daily newspapers as q whole. The
common folk know what q blessing pro-
hibition Is. they see its benefits in their
homes AID among their friends They
know that the Wild stories OF crimes laid
on prohibition are not true.
The wet daily newspaper is joke.
People no longer take seriously what these
wet papers say about prohibition. Prolli-
bition is like the sun, it is taking care Of
itself God has at last awakened His peO-
pie to the evils and dangers of strong
drink. The people of God are happily on
their way and all the paid for lies of the
wet press are becoming matters Of indif-
ference to them. Tt is recorded in the
Bible by a wise reporter many generations
ago. 1.-THE lips Of fool viii swallow up

were printed? Hear this fanatical wet
scream again
What is the use Of prohibition if it
merely substitutes vile bootleg whisky
for innocuous light wines and beers?
What is to be gained by policy Of
prohibition which makes vicious
drinkers of young, innocent children
and causes them to commit dreadful
deeds?
The above is printed in black twelve
point caps all the way through. His boot
leg whisky, let me repeat, was his pet
wine His young innocent children" were
hoodlums, every one of whom was over %
years Of age.
Another thing that amuses me is the
constant charge through this sixty inch
article that the dry fanatics are to blame.
"After all" says he, (naming the
man who furnished the liquor to the
parity "is not primarily responsible
for the conditions that exist The
fanatics are to blame-the fanatics
who cling to prohibition after its fail
ure has been clearly demonstrated
the fanatics who care not how much
crime there is, how much corruption
there is, how much Generalization
and degeneracy there is, as long as
their pet policy is maintained"

In a long article in one of his string OF
papers certain publisher deyotes sixty
inches to a hysterical report Of the drink
ing party in Gary. His article is based
entirely upon false assumptions and what
was proved to be a mistaken diagnosis by
the coroner. This wet publisher makes me
tired by his loud screaming over things
that never happened.
The slight amount of alcohol found in
the girls stomach was not poison and
there was not sufficient of it to cause in
toxication even in young woman unac-
custon1ed to liquor, SO, the following
charge made by this writer falls to the
ground.
Said he, Undoubtedly she would
have done no wrong if she had been
in possession of her senses. But she
was not in possession of her faculties
nor were the young men who are held
as criminals Their minds were mad
dened, their bodies soddened by boot
leg whisky"
The joke on this fanatical wet is that
his own cherished and faVorite wine that
he would make legal in this country was
the stuff used at this party. This same
publisher makes me weary by calling this
party q prohibition party. Was there ever

munities from wet communities and Dry states from
wet Stass was the chief problem of the nation The
insurmountable difficulties in connection with that
problem were the subject of continuous discussions
In congress and gave rise to the introduction of
scores of bills by the dry forces in their efforts to
prevent violations of state laws through Interstate
shipments OF Intoxicating liquor.
In the year 1890 congress passed the so-called
Ws-son act It provided that Intoxicating liquor
shipped into any state or territory or remaining
thereln for use Sae storage should upon arrival
therein be subject to the laws of state or TERRITORY
as though such liquor had been produced there and
should not be exempt thereform because introduced
IN the original packages otherwise. The vets i'm
mediatey attacked the consttutonality of this law
and In the case of Rhodes v. Iowa ITO u. S. 412
succeeded in having the Wilson act declared inap-
phcable to an interstate shipment of liquor until
delivery to the consgnee This edict of hands off,
to state authorities until the liquor was safely hid
den by the buyer to whom it was shipped by some
liquor law violator in wet city or state was seri-
Gus blow TO law enforcement.
Then came the Webb-Kenyon act. 1t was adopted
IN 1913 to cure this and other defects in the Wilson
law which the liquor forces in their determination
TO sell liquor anywhere and everywhere regardless
of state laws, had disclosed. The Webb-Kenyon
act, in substance prohibited shipment or transpor-
tat1on from one state, territory district of the
United States of intoxicating liquors which were in
tended by any person interested therein, to be
celVed, possessed or sold or in any manner used
either in the original package otherwise in viola
ton of any law of such state territory or district"
1t was the purpose of this law to withdraw the pro
lection afforded Interstate shipments of liquors un-
der the commerce clause of the federal constitution
and the Wilson act, above referred to, until the
shipment had terminated, to give dry states imme-
date control of liquor shipped into their borders
Still the liquor interests def1ed the dry states.
Then came the so-called Reed bone-dry amend
ment enacted in 1917, prohibiting the shipment of
any liquor into any state contrary to the laws of
such state, and prohibiting the advertising of liz
uor or solicitation of orders for liquor through the
mails
Still the liquor interests persisted in smuggling
liquor into dry states and dry communities and ma
tional prohibition came as the only alternative.
It those who would bring back the liquor traffic
think they can hoodwink the people into retracing
their steps to fight all again the stubborn bat
ties made necessary by the liquor interests clever
hiding behind the interstate commerce clause in the
federal constitution they are very much mistaken
Virtually every really decisive battle in the half
tury warfare against the lawless liquor traffic had to
be fought and won against tremendous odds in this
sector To grant certain states the right to traffic in
Intoxicating liquors, whatever law constitutional

IN the face of such findings, will tie enlightened

The following is reprinted from the Seientif
temperance Journal:
The police department. of Berlin, Germany,
is circulating card containing a table giving
the number of feet per second that a motor
travels while going at different speeds from 10
to As miles an hour. At 10 miles it covers 1896
feet per second; at 45 miles, sc feet per second.
The following warning is also given:
l. The arduouS and responsible calling of the
motor driver makes it necessary for him to alb
stain completely from all alcoholic beverages
Cheer, wine, spirits etc., both before and dur
ing his work.
2. The smallest quantities of alcohol are in
furious for the motor driver. It is q widespread
error that small quantities have no deleterious
effect. On the contrary, they cause at first an
increase of Self-confidence followed by prema-
ture fatigue, and thus weaken his capacity for
swift discrimination and reaction in the pres
ence Of danger
3. A large proportion of motor accidents are
due to the consumption of quite small quanti-
ties Of alcohol
4. Larger quantities of alcohol increase the
danger, and lead finally to intoxication and
rash and foolish actions.
5. The license will be refused in all cases to
persons inclined to intemperance.
6. Driving while under the influence of alco-
hol is strictly forbidden. Any driver found to
be in a state of intOXcatiOn during his work
will be placed under arrest and his car taken
in charge by the police. If he is proven to be
drunk his license will be withdrawn.
7. The most serious accidents occur in the
case of so-caled 'joy-rides," in which alcohol
regularly plays part. In these cases, the
driver is liable to a heavy penalty and the
withdrawal of his license.
8. Every driver who does not totally abstain
from the use of alcohol is not only danger to
himself and to his fellows, but brings misfor-
tune on his family
Beer addicts who fercely proclaim the non
Intoxicating qualities of beer can get some valu-
able information by writing to the police de-
partment of Berlin, Germany the reputed domi-
Gle of the malt cult Experience has taught
that drinkers can get upset by the alcohol in
fermented barley.
The translation Of this warning is followed in
the Clarion Cal, January l, 1880 by this SLOGAN:
