THREE-MINUTE JOURNEYS
BY Temple Manning

for a winter visit. The roads
wind through twisted, undulat-
ing country, all of it interesting
and picturesque. A most de-
lightful and very old town is
Siracusa, worth a visit of some
days.
Work is going on in the i'm
posing remains Of the ancient
Greek city on the plain outside
the modern town with its good
hotels.
From Siracusa to Messina Is
q most pleasant run, a good
route being via Priolo and
Catania. Catania is a city built
on and of lava. In it are the
remains of a fine Greek theater
and the imposing castle OF
Ursino. You will adore
Taormina, not so far away, and
will most likely find several
friends spending the Writer in
the ever growing colony. r.
There is always a gathering
of artists and literary folk and
life is pleasant, while living is
inexpensive.

obstructed! Seven Repub-
lican members of the House
from New York voted
against repeal, but the over
whelming majority of the
Republican rank and file of
New York are for it. The
people should not consider
any politician in New York
who seeks to stem the tide
to be consummate in his
art.
There is every reason to
believe that three-fourths of
the States will ratify, but
time will be required, and
the repealists cannot take
anything for granted. There
are still many well-meaning
people who are against re-
peal; and there are many
cheap politicians and dema-
gogues, and many profess
sional prohibitionists who
have fattened for a decade
on snug salaries, coaxed
from the pockets Of the peo-
pie, who will put up a fight.
But the group who have
lived on prohibition and
financially profited on it
have a deplenished war
chest. 1t was easy for them
to dominate when the tide
was with national prohibi-
tion and vast sums Of money
poured into their war chest
from great industrialists
and financiers. These lat
ter have shut off the flow,
convinced at last that the
"noble experiment" is
ruinous.

Now Rests on
The States

That is the reason it is a
vicious thing to write into
the Constitution any provi-
sion that does not reflect the
view of an overwhelming
proportion of the people; and
a vicious thing to write into
the fundamental law of a
whole people any provision
that is notoriously obnoxious
to whole sections of the
country.
The contest to rid the ma
tion of this destructive
amendment now shifts to
the States. New York is
acting instantly, and so will

Struggle Shifts
to the States

But the national prohibi-
tionists will not be without
money for the making of the
fight in the States. The
money will come from boot
leggers, from highjackers,
from the operators Of low
dives, from the forces of or
ganized crime which came in
with national prohibition.
The Al Capones of the coun-
try have made millions on the
Eighteenth Amendment that
should have gone into the
Federal treasury. The most
lucrative business in Amer
lea today is that Of the boot
logger, and he is going to
fight for his business; and he
is going to finance the fight.
An amendment which has
subsidized crime is dear to
the hearts Of these criminals.
Ten years ago, in a Con-
gressional district in Indiana,
the Democratic nominee for
Congress ran on a repeal
platform. There were a few
dry counties where he was
expected to lose; and two
populous counties on which
he depended to win. One of
these counties was dominated
by a city of considerable
size; the other was a great
mining county with a very
large population of foreign
miners who demanded beer
and wine. This county was
dominated by speakeasies Of
the lowest sort, and by the
bootleggers who had turned
politicians to "protect their
business.
The result: The repeal
candidate was defeated by
this county which was wiring
ing wet - because Of the
speakeasies, the bootleggers
and the racketeerS. 1t was
carried by every other Demo-
crat on the ticket.
The bootleggers and racke-
teers wanted no interference
with the Eighteenth Amend
ment; for with it's repeal they
would find their occupation
gone.
They financed the fight for
the prohibition candidate;
just as they will finance the
battle against repeal in the
States.
Thus the battle is only hall
won; the struggle shifts to
the States.
This may require a few
years-it depends. But some
thing can be done at once.
Congress has the power at
once to so modify the Vol
stead act as to make possible
the manufacture and legal
sale of beer.
The Democrats are pledged
to that program. The major
part of the people want it.
They want it because it is
a step toward the return to

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER XIII
1T was night now. Outside on
the street lamps were lighted
silver pears blooming suddenly
nigh in the early dusk. Inside the
quiet hospital room nothing was
changed. Quiet feet slipped to and
fro. Someone helped Monnie TO a
low chair. She did not take her
eyes from the face Of the hoy in
The high, narrow bed. His eyes
we're closed now. There was an
expression of deep contentment in
his face.
Anyhow he isn't in PAIN" she
kept telling herself over and over,
drugging herself with the thought.
Anyhow it's being made easy for
him"
The famous specialist hustled In
lust after the lamps were lit. There
was a hurried consultation. Moth
ing seemed to make any difference.
The verdict was the same.
Monnie was conscious once dur
ing the long hours of Charles Eus'
ACE at her side.
"You must come away and get
some rest" he urged softly. This
is doing no good. He doesn't know
you're here"
She shook her head, gently stub
oorn. AS if she would leave now.
Why, she had given Dan her word!
Just before midnight he opened
MS eyes. 1t seemed TO Monnie that
nc smiled at Ter. His mother
:waying on her feet, called his
lame. Dan closed those dark blue
eyes of his again and little shud'

side was weeping frankly. like g

Then she was beside Charles in
the car again. The same stars

Monnie remembered him seate-

to be kind. She wrote to him in this
mood. opening her heart simply
