want legal liquor for the sake of the
young people-that they are drinking
any and everything now-that at least
it would be pure if it We're legal, gov
ernment-inspected liquor. Let me tell
you've don't need liquor for the sake
of the young people. We don't even
like the taste of it. We don't like the
effects it produces. If the older peo-
pie want it, let them say so; but they
should at least have the courage to
say THEY want it, and not try to
hide behind a false statement that
it is for our sakes. If we, the young
people, were allowed to vote on the
question, the proposition to legalize
alcoholic beverages would be defeated
by an overwhelming majority. If the
people of voting age can withstand
the wet wave just long enough for US,
the average boys and girls, to get our
vote, you may be sure that alcoholic
beverages will never again be legal
lied. We cannot afford to hazard our
future for drink. We do not want it.
You don't know the average girl"
Mrs. Roosevelt. To get the average
you must take all of US the country
over, and doing that you will find that
we may not be saying much, but we
have our opinions-and they are NOT
in favor of legalized alcoholic bever-
ages, and they are not in favor of the
illegal stuff used now. No, the "av-
erage girl" does not have to learn
early how much she can drink, and she
doesn't keep within that quantity be-
cause there is no need. We do not
drink the stuff at all.
Sincerely yours,
OSTA M. UNDERWOOD.

An average Girl" Answers
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt

The following open letter to Mrs.
Franklin D. Roosevelt was written by
Osta NJ. Underwood, an 18-year-old
student in Nashville business college,
Nashville, Tennessee. In note to an
editor Miss Underwood says:
81 cannot hope for my letter as
wide publicity as Mrs. Roosevelt's
statement received. 1 beg that you
will help voice the protest of the 'av-
erage girl of the United States by
giving this space in your paper"
Nashville, Tennessee,
December ID, 1882.
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, Govern
or's Mansion, Albany, New York.
Dear Mrs. Roosevelt-An article in
our morning paper saying that a
statement of yours brought forth a
shocked protest" from a group of
women leaders in Topeka, brings forth
an equally shocked protest from me.
You were quoted as saying that 1.-THE
average girl of today faces the prob
lem of learning very young how much
she can drink of such things as whis-
key and gin and sticking to the proper
quantity"
If you have been correctly quoted,
you surely do not know the average
girl of today" 1 would not undertake
to inform you were l not an average
girl of today"
am eighteen years of age; l was
graduated from a standard high
school little more than year ago,
and am now attending the Nashville
business college. 1 cannot remember
one instance when l have seen girl
of my own age under the influence of
liquor, and 1 can remember seeing but
three boys of my own age intoxi-
Gated, or even drinking" l am a
member of no dry organization. I am
no prig l am merely an average
girl" who is indignant at hearing
girls accused of something of which
they are not guilty.
Instead of drinking, we average"
young people are planning in due
course of time to run our respective
communities and the United States,
while the drinking observation-disclosures
are reaping their crop of wild oats.
Drinking and such things went out
of style with the postwar" group of
young people. Drinking and many
other things of which we are accused
are frightfully old-fashioned. The
young people of today are interested
in athletics and many other things
that require a strong body, clear
brain, steady nerve and quick think
ing, and all of these things drink de-
stroys. The girls and boys of today
enjoy sports and games that challenge
the mind. Girls of today are going
into the business field because they
like it. You can't be successful in the
business field if you are in the habit
of drinking. No stenographer can
take dictation or do tipping who has
Hangover" headache, nor can she
perform many other duties well. Our
pride makes US want to do things
well.
1t is true that in some groups in
thickly populated sections, in some
large cities, in some communities, such
conditions as you spoke of do exist
but you said average"

REED IS MARRIED .
TO MRS. DONNELLy
Former Missouri Senator
Was Factcr in Her Re.
lease by Kidnapers.

BY the Associated Press.
KANSAS CITY, December IA
James A. Reed, who served Missouri in
the United States Senate for 10 years,
and his bride, the former Mrs. Nell @.
Donnelly, were honeymooning today, as
secretive about their plans as they were
before their marriage last night.
The wedding of the silver-haired vet
eran of politics and Mrs. Donnelly, a
wealthy garment manufacturer. was
surprise to the 20 guests who had as
sembled at the brides apartment for a
duck and venison dinner. Not until
after the dinner, when Federal Judge
John C. Pollock, who officiated, asked
the guests to stand and he had entered
into discussion of marriage did the
guests realize they were attending
wedding.
Demanded Her Release.
For many years. Mrs Donnelly had
been friend and political supporter of
the independent Democrat, who fire.
quently clashed with the policies OF
President Wilson, particularly on the
League of Nations. Friends also re-
called the statement he had made
while Mrs. Donnelly was being held for
ransom by a gang of kidnapers two
years ago.
IF single hair of Mrs. Donnelly's
head is harmed" he said, I'll devote
the rest of my life to tracking down
her kidnapers and sending them to the
galloWs."
After 81 hours in the hands of kid
napers she was released unharmed, and
without payment of ransom. Her kid
napers are in prison.
Open House New Year.
Although the bride and groom an
nounced they would not disclose their
destination for short honeymoon. 1t
was learned they had taken train for

JOHNSON PLEDGES
AID TO ROOSEVELT
Says Country will go to He'll
Economically" If Policies
Are Not Carried Out.

BY the Associated Press.
Senator johnson, Republican, of Cali
fornia, returned to his desk at the Capt.
tol yesterday with prediction that the
country will go to hell economically"
If the Roosevelt policies are not carried
out.
In spite of his opposition party label,
the Californian expressed the greatest
enthusiasm for the administration pro-
gram to reporters who gathered about
his desk.
He said the country was passing
through an economic and social revolu-
ton that was, and would continue to
have, the effect of realigning political
forces, but not necessarily resulting in
formation of more parties.
Will Support President.
LAS 1 see the situation now, will
support the President in any fashion
can" johnson said, adding:
There's different alignment among
human beings now. That's the situa-
ton today. Either we are going through
with this program that levels up the
merits of human beings or we are going
to hell economically. That's the big
thing in Mr.. Roosevelt's program-a
leveling process"
He said he meant by this "leveling
process" that financial and industrial
captains of 1929 had been "dethroned"
and that labor and humanity in general
were getting a squarer deal than ever
before.
The revolution came so quickly" he
said, that few of us who were in 1t
know fully what has happened. The
gods of 1929 whom you have seen
marching in disarry before the Senate
Banking Committee have been stripped
so bare that they no longer are reckoned
with at all
Denies Call by Roosevelt.
The fiery Californian dismissed with
q sweep of the hand reports that he
had been summoned here by the Presi-
dent to discuss possible appointment
to the Supreme Court or to attend
secret meeting in Chicago at which
Progressives proposed additional emer-
gency relief expenditures.
He did say, however. that more money
for public works would be needed and
possibly additional funds for unem-
ployment distress relief.
johnson said he would call on the
President soon, but on his own in
itiative.
California matters brought him here
this early, ne said, and nothing else
except to get ready for Congress.
He declined to discuss pure politics,
though he has to settle for himself be-
fore next Summer which party banner
he will carry in his campaign for re-
election, or whether he will run as an
independent
