FRIDAY, MARCH a, 1882
Three Per Cent Beer Legal

While Rhode Island has placed the task
of enforcing prohibition laws within its
state borders directly up to the federal au-
thorities it has not yet solved the situation,
When Governor Case signed the measures
establishing the legal alcoholic content of
beverages and repeating the state enforce
ment act he merely created case for the
high courts of our land. Ultimately we
don't doubt but what the lifted States
Supreme Court will be called upon to make
a decision as to the legal status of the Rhode
Island mandates
Upon close examination, though, it can
be seen that Rhode Island has not taken any
revolutionary step. 1t hasn't given any
brewery or distiller the right to manufac-
ture, transport or sell beverages with con-
tent of three per cent alcohol by weight.
1t has merely recognized them as non-in-
toxicating and legal. It. therefore, will be
the task of federal authorities to punish any
offenders who fall in this category. Whether
this can be done without state or local aid
remains to be seen.
Certainly federal agents cannot expect to
get very far on the few victims they may
bring into the federal courts of the state
The bulk of liquor fines and convictions are
secured in minor courts, such as the police
or city tribunals However. let those
brewers or distillers venture into the field Of
some other beverage than beer and they will
continue to feel the weight of the Rhode
Island eonstabulary. Which forces us to
the opinion that this republiean-made and
ordained legislation may not prove as severe
a criticism of the 9th amedment as its
sponsors want it to be.
Nobody questions the sentiments of
Rhode Island. They are just as wet as in
this state, but there is little likelihood OF
Connecticut following in Little Rhody's'
footsteps. While we don't particularly en-
thuse over the action our Legislature took
last year in its efforts to pass wet measure
we do think that more definite action will
be taken next year. We don't for minute
imagine that it will resemble the legalized
beer bill of Rhode Island. There will be
too much confusion in the state, though not
as much if the state were as large as Massa'
chusetts. w
There is one feature of the new legsla-
tion to be admired. The authors stressed
the point that they are trying to eliminate
the sales factor from the illegal manufacture
Of liquors. Their hope is to sanction man
ufacture. transportation. and sale for per.
sonal consumption. However. this certain.
ly involves sales factor. but we can see
what the Rhode Island legislators are aim
ing at. If the profit can be removed from
illegal liquor transactions it will certainly
decrease. but home brewing isn't going to
replace it entirely. People want to pur.
chase brew that is the equal in alcoholic
content and in quality Of the ones they were
accustomed to before prohibition went into
effect. When they get them look for an
end to our present misery.

Golden Dollars vs. Golden
Memories

Inventing some way to save mankinds
fruits of labor and effort for future enjoy
ment will solve one of soeiety's greatest
problems. We mortgage a farm to send
Willie to school when the dollar is cheap,
and pay the debt with dollars worth twice as
much. We tuck our savings in gold in bank
vaults, but may wake up some morning to
find the value of pound of gold dwindled
to the price of depression egg because some
chemist has discovered cheap way to make
gold from sand. We worry over material
investment and its security, and see world
wide condition crumble substantial gilt
edged certificates. and capable men and
women suffer an unfortunate downfall from
salary heights that leaves them empty
handed and dazed.
This. then. is the problem. the ehal-
lense of the depression. How can man save
in his youth for happiness in old age3 The
answer leads from material to spiritual values.
This depression may be blessing If it
teaches us that ideas and memories of beauty
and the worth while things Of life are Sc
cure where moths and rust doth not cor
rupt and banks do not close their doors.
No mortgagor can foreelose on big idea.
No bank failure can wipe out your reeollee-
tons of sunsets and moonrises viewed from
a ship.
When we get little money next time
we shall go lightly with stocks and bonds
and heavily on steamship tickets to strange
historical lands. Let's start off by train for
New York or San Francisco and embark
on one of those tropical cruise ships like
the IS Santa Ana or the SIS Santa Teresa.
We can get twenty-five thrilling days going
around through the Panama Canal with

Now Up to the States

All that remains now to insure ratification
Of our 10th amendment is approval by
three fourths Of our states. This must be
secured within seven years or this country
will continue to hold lame-duek sessions of
Congress. However. Senator George Norris
and those legislators who have worked so
many years to secure passage of the amend
ment abolishing the short session and au-
thorizing inaugural Of President Vice
president. and members of Congress in jan
uary can see only speedy ratification.
" Those states whose legislatures are now
in session will be expected to act upon the
proposed amendment Immediately provid-
ing it is brought to their attention by the
proposed amendment Immediately. provid-
chance to act upon 1t. until next January.
We wonder if our Legislature will approve
or refuse to ratify. This state is notorious
for its refusal to tamper with the Con-
stitution. We have been rather eonsisten,
in this respect. For example, we rejected
in both houses the proposed federal regula-
ton of child labor which TO date has merely
been ratified by five states.
We did ratify womens suffrage. but not
the 18th amendment guaranteeing federal
prohibition. We favored the direct election
of u. S. Senator's. but we refuse to ratify
federal income taxes We approve Articles
IS. II. and l3. but refused the 18th. which
regulated the manner of choosing the pres
ident and viee-president. And. of course. no
record can be found of this state ever rati-
flying the original Bill of Rights. All of
which makes il interesting to conjecture just
which way the state will act next year.
OF course. we hope that Connecticut will
r1fify. - we believe that the proposed amend.
nsent Is needed. In fact IL has been needed
for many years. but obstinate Houses OF
Representatives managed TO hold up the
paopessI the eight Of nine times that IL came

Now that ''Puddler Jim" Davis of Penn

prohibition question he is going to find OPP
position for the senatorial nomination this

SMITHS CANDIDACY
BigOtry Again to Rear Its Head in Midst Of Our
National Election
America

The announcement on the morn
Ing Of February by Ex-Governor
Alfred u. Smith that he was ''re-
ceptive candidate" In the democra-
tic party for the nomination to the
presidency created very grave
problem for the Catholics of this
country. This problem was present.
ed in the words which the New
York Times devoted to 1t the very
day Mr. Smiths statement was pub
lished. They were:
Something else, however. will
come back II he rs nominated to the
presidency. 1t Is a revival of those
religious prejudices which SO dis
tressed thoughtful men In 1928.
Must those forbidden yet furious
passions be reused again.. 49,. If
that abhorrent and un-American
dragging of religion into politics
were to be witnessed again SO soon
1t would be a cause of detection
and grief to multitudes. The plea
is made that the nation should be
given twenty or thirty years more
to recover. before being stretched
on the rack once more.
The obvious implications of this
editorial We're: 81 that the forces
of bigotry are just as strong in this
country now as they were in 1928;
co that IL Mr. Smith puts forth his
candidacy. and still more Ii he Is
nominated, these forces Will once
again be set into motion against
him; 90 that Mr. Smith will be In
some way responsible for the anti
Catholic storm IL he persists In his
intention; and ca that therefore
he owes 1t to himself. his church.
his party, and the country, not to
insist on the right which - GER

Assistant Secretary of the Navy Ernest
Lee Jahneke is continuing his defense of the
Hoover administration. We had hoped that
he might leave that to the republican ma
tional committee and not to members of
the Cabinet whose duties certainly must be
arduous enough to keep all we'll occupied.
However. both MIR Jahneke and Secretary of
War Hurley are evidently enjoying their
Sabbatical years. for since the first of ANU
uary we can recall no public action or utter
ance of theirs that could not be construed
as of political nature. Of course. we are
glad to find that the President still has
few faithful friends in his administration.
but il seems that at this time their zeal could
be applied in the same direction as the
