WASHINGTON LEADS NATION BACK
TO DRUNKENNESS


Startling increase in drunkenness in
many sections Of the country has followed
legalizing of manufacture and sale Of beer
and the general letting down in enforce
ment of prohibition laws which is accom-
panying the rising tide of ''wetness'
throughout the country. Very little of the
drunkenness, probably, is caused by 3.2
beer, but sale of beer is made smoke
screen for sale of strong liquors and the
demand for these has no doubt greatly IL
creased The boldness of the population
in both selling and drinking is rapidly
growing under the stimulus of what is re-
garded as returning popular favor for
manufacture and consumption Of alcoholic
beverages.
Nowhere in the country is the orgy OF
the "wet" era developing more rapidly
than in the capital of the natiOn-Wash-
ington-where, according to The Charlotte
Observer, in three days over the past week
end 321 arrests for drunkenness were made
by Washington police. The same news
ington police department show 1,727 ar
rests for public drunkenness in the month
of August, a considerable gain over 1,448
arrests on the same charge in the month
of July.
From other sources this newspaper
learns that at times in the past few months
it has been practically impossible for the
Washington police to handle the problem
of drunkenness. The police department
has not had a sufficient number of officers
on duty to run in all the DRINKS; in several
weekend periods the places for incarcera-
ton of drunks overflowed and there was
no place to lock Up all of those arrested.
As bad as this record may appear to
those old-fashioned, out-of-date citizens
who believe in Sobriety and decency in
personal conduct, it is entirely fitting that
the country's new era of liquor drinking
should head up in Washington.
With the President of the United States
advocating the restoration of the legalized
alcoholic beverage traffic, and urging it as
means of raising revenue, residents o.
the nations capital probably feel tina
they are performing a patriotic duty il
tuning up for the happy days to come
If it is a good thing to make and sell liquor
for revenue, it is necessary in order to col
lect the revenue that there be consumer
of the stuff. No man, whether he be Presi
dent or plain citizen, who advocates tn
manufacture and sale Of alcoholic bever
ages for revenue. can reasonably condemn
drinking and drunkenness. After the STUFF
is made, if the people do not drink it, NJ
revenue will be collected. To advocat
manufacture and sale for revenue is to ad
vocate drinking; and drinking to exces
follows manufacture and sale as day fol
lows night. That has always been true AM
always will be true in dealing with liquor

PAPS WIN FROM
 LEGION, I TO },
 IN FINE GAME
P. Sc hmitz Holds Vets Sluggers ot Eight Hits
 Fine Support

Behind the steady pitching ol Pete Schmisz last night. the Moose played almost errorless, haads-ur baseball and won from the Ameri- can Legion by score of to 5 Junge, harling for the Vets, was wild in spots and his support fal- tered enough in the sixth to blow the game.
 Fraser, Moose backstop, and Man. ming, hit home runs. Manning's blow in the eighth scored two rum ners ahead of him.
 Hits Evenly Divided
 Each team got eight safe hits The Vets were charged with three errors and the Moose two. The game was fast, only one hour and 45 minutes being required for the nine innings of play
 Pete Schmitz held the Vets hit less and scoreless for the first three frames, not a runner seeing first during that period. In the third frame, he pitched only three balls, and each batter hit to third and was tossed out by Bob Kille wich, reformed catcher who had a great day. He made eight assists and one put-out unassisted. He missed but one out of ten chances coming his way, and in the sixth smacked out long two-bagger to score a runner from second.
 Moose Score First
 The Moose got the first counter In the last half of the first frame Fraser smashed the ball over a garden fence back of left field for the circuit with none on bases.
 The Vets knotted the count in the fourth Rustad drew pass and was forced by Allen who was safe at first. Cecil stole second and raced home on Boyds blazing grounder past short to left. This was the first hit made off Pete.
 From the first to the sixth Junge held the Moose Tn checK all though they threatened in the third and fifth.
 Three in Sixth
 The Paps chalked up three runs in the sixth on two errors, three hits and a walk. Bill Schmitz led off with a single to. right. Then came the break that lifted the Moose out of the rut. Fred Schmitz

grounded to short. Roller with a set-up double killing in sight, jug gled the ball too long to nab Bill at second. then heaved the ball into the right field bleachers trying to catch Fritz at first. Bill went to third and Fritz to second.
 Fraser singled to deep left, SCOT ing Bill easily. Allen relayed to Manning and Jimmy's throw to the plate had Fritz beaten but the ball went into the dirt and the run ner scored Fraser took second on the throw in Killewich scored him with a sparkling two-bagger over the walk back of left field. He died on third when Grummett flied out to Niemi in center, J, Schmitz, who walked was forced by P. Schmitz, and Ramsay famed.
 Three in Seventh
 Junge's wiiialless coupled with two hits gave the Moose three more in the seventh. Cooper, first man up, was hit by a pitched ball. Bill Schmitz's fly along the right field foul line took bad hop and went for double. Fred Schrnitz singled to left to score him and Fritz took second on the throw to the plate for Bill. Fraser walked Manning took Killewich's fly back of third. Grummett walked to fill the bases. J. Schnitz flied to left and Fred Schmitz scored after the catch. Pete Schmitz grounded to the box and Junge threw to the plate to catch Fraser.
 Legion Scores Four
 Trailing by six runs, the Veterans staged a batting rally in the eighth to score four runs. Niemi opened it with a fly to left for the first out. Rustad singled cleanly te left. Lowe, batting for Allen, shot line drive past F, Schmitz for single, Rustad going to third. Boyd singled to left to score Rustad and Lowe stopped at second Andrews popped out to Grummett at short for the second hand down. Man. ming skied one into the yard at the little green topped house for the circuit, scoring Lowe and Boyd ahead of him.
 Junge kept the Vets supporters clamoring when he singled to right. Worth deflated them when he grounded to Killewich who threw him out at first.
 Pete held the Vets in close check in the ninth. Roller rolled out, Killewich to J. Schmitz. Niemi fouled out to Fraser and Pete showed his stuff by flaming Rustad on three pitched balls.
