the cause Of temperance. They
had see political corruption aris'
under it, which was as bad ane
often worse than that Of the ole
days. They had seen an unpre-
cedented increase in crime, made
possible by the vast amounts Of
money that illegal liluo: brought
into underworld pockets. They
had seen the speakeasy flourish, te
the point, where, in mcst large
cities, it ran almost as openly a:
the legal saloon once did, and wa:
even less subject to social control
The National Distillers have

If the public fails in that, or if the
liquor manufacturers AID hllers
fail in their duty Of keeping the
goal of temperance everlastingly.
in mind, repeal of prohibition will
be a poor victory indeed. The
solid citizens of this country de-
mand that the age-old alliance be-
tween politics and liquor be broken
that the law control the "luor

the first to echo those demands

they have failed. 1t has tried alb

to fail or succeed depands on the

that message is more needed than it
is today. The world has gone
mad again in a mad race to build
bigger and bigger navis. Japan,
England, the United States and
Germany are struggling to see
which nation can build better in
struments of hell. The people Of
these countries cannot hear the
angels sing. Their voices are
drowned out by the sound of the
steel rivcter and the furnace blast
of the cannon maker. And yet
if the nations are ever to know
peace it will be by listening to the;
voice Of the One whose birthday
the angels proclaimed and not by
treaties arrived at through bloody
conquest. Two thousand years
ago He said put up thy sword.
They hat live by the sword shall
die by the sword" And the COM
mon people heard him gladly and
would hear Him today if it were,
not for the noise of the armament
maker. May there be a lull in the
worlds noises, during the period
when people are celebrating the
birthday of the Prince of Peace,
long enough to hear Him, say, I'll
am the way"
