PURE LIQUOR
Our wet friends tell us If we
could have liquor made under
government control. the liquor
would be pure, and people would
not be poisoned by drinking
blockade products. But IS thm
true?
Let us see the government fig
ures on death rate. Out of every
100000 people in the United
States 1925 died annually from
alcoholic liquors in the years
101O-1917 before liquor went
out. .o
Since liquor went out, 1920
1880, only 313G died annually
from liquor poison, from each
100000 population.
But they say, we are not asks
ing for strong drink, we Just ask
for 4 per cent beer and they say
that will not hurt any one, or
make any one drunk, but the rec
ord shows that 90 per cent of
all the liquor used before the
states went dry was beer, and
only 8 per cent whiSkcy.
Now if beer docs not hurt any
one what was the cause Of all
the drunkness and deaths from
liquor? Why were thousands
picked up in the streets drunk?
The vets say they are not ask
ing for open saloons, hut want
to license the restaurants, etc,
to sell liquor. But don't you
know that there would be hun
dreds of restaurants selling beer,
and saloon is saloon whether
it ne called a restaurant or what
not.
Another thing to consider is,
if 90 per cent Of the liquor con-
sumed when we had saloons waS
beer, then if this bill is passed,
it will restore 90 per cent wet,
then where will we be with all
these 28,000,000 automobiles
running the roads?
Another thing for grOcerS and
business men to consider is that
the average labOring man only
earns barely enough to live, and
if beer is restored, and the men
spend SOC out of every dollar
for beer. that means that the
grocery bill will be soc on every
dollar unpaid, or the family will
be SOC short of food. Let us cit
liens of the United States wake
up to our sense of duty and cast
our influence on the side Of
right. Let us remember that it
took our fathers 100 years hard
work, and took as states to vote
liquor out, but it will only take
Sc states to vote it back again.
"Who hath woe? Who hath
sorrow? Who hath contentious?
Who hath babbling? Who hath
wounds without cause? Who
hath redness of eyes? They that
tarry long at the wine; they that
go to seek mixed wine. Look not
thou upon the wine when it is
red, when it giveth its color in
the cup, when it moveth itself

Early in the 17th century, tobacco seed from America was taken to Turkey. Different soil, different climate, different temperatures night and day, and different farming methods produced an entirely new tobacco-small in size, but very rich and aromatic.
 This tobacco is known generally as Turkish tobacco; but there are as many varieties of Turkish as there are kinds of apples.
 Four certain spots are famous for the quail

1888 GRADUATES WERE BANQUET GUESTS 1T
 JESSE LEE HOME

Twenty-six persons were guests last night at the Junior Senior banquet at the Jesse Lee Home for the two Seward High School classes and members of the faculty.
 Automobiles conveyed the crowd from the school building to the Home at about six o'clock, and at 6:30 a feast fit for a king was served. After the innumerable courses had been served toast master Dick Reed, member of the Junior class called for speeches from the faculty and members and class officers, and a toast to the Seniors was also offered.
 The Junior class had charge of decorations, menus, and other de- tails of the banquet, the meal it. self being cooked at the Jesse Lee Home, and the whole occasion was one which this years graduates will long remember.

The Forest Army

The belief still persists in some quarters that the government. in its forestation relief work, is trying to build up standing army. In one of the camps from which such re- ports have come, they were based on such evidence as this: There are several men in the forest corps who have had military training" says the officer in charge of the camp. Every night you can see them drill ing crowd of volunteers in the quadrangleS. My orders were to allow no military atmos- phere. but I haven't stopped these drills. The men are interested, and it would be shame to stop them They have asked to drill with guns, but told them that would not be allowed.
 It is wise to guard against any appearance of mlitarism in these confused times, to reassure ill-informed citizens and prove the sincerity of our international peace efforts. Nevertheless, knowledge of simple march ing maneuvers is useful, and the physical and rhythmic exercise obtained from them has probably never hurt anybody.

Rep. MeFadden, republican, of Pennsyl- vania. just can't get rid of the impeachment bug. Now he wants to put the screws on Secretary of the Treasury Wee Willie" Woodin. He is accused of having stopped gold redemption Others whom McFadden would impeaeh are Andrew Mellon and Og- den L. Mills whom he accuses of robbing the government. And he even tried to impeach Herbert Hoover last year. That ended his control of patronage for any section of Penn sylvania In fact he is practically ostracized now. However, he might as well withdraw his charges against Secretary Woodin He looks like the first casualty of the Roose- welt Cabinet with Director of the Budget Douglas scheduled to succeed him.

War Debt Facts

When Congressional leaders say there must be no war debt revision. the war debtors stffen their backs and refuse to pay anything at all. More than that, they mess up the plans for the London economic con- ference which should mean much to d troubled world. It is a good time for leg islators to stop throwing monkey wrenehes. It is also a good time to recognize facts.
 These, for instance: First - Collection of those war debts in full is not within the power of the United States. There is no conceivable way of collecting if the debtors refuse to pay. Second - It is literally inn possible, for economic reasons. for most of the debtors to pay principal and interest in full. . They are as hard up as we are, or more so.
 Third = It is politically impossible. Any government undertaking it would be imme- diately overthrown. There would be new revolutions and more obstacles to business. Fourth - It is good sense to make some friendly compromise. getting what money we can. and good will trade concessions and other valuable considerations for the balance.

Selfish Plans

By means of an imaginary conversation, the New York Sun sets forth strikingly the selfishness which is one factor helping to keep this country and the whole world in economic distress. There are three speak CTS, a farmer, merchant and manufacturer. All of them want imitation, but with differ enees.
 The farmer wants only such imitation as will raise crop prices Clothing and farm machinery he wants to buy cheap. The merchant wants imitation which will raise the prices of the goods he sells, but he wants rent and other items of ovsrhead to stay low The manufacturer wants imitation to raise the price of his finished goods, while keeping the cost of labor and raw materials down. The moral is so obvious that it need not be stressed.
 On a broader scale, the nations have been acting upon similar ideas. Each of them wants to enlarge its export market, but ean- not bear the thought of any other nation doing the same thing. Yet it is just as true that eventually those who will not buy will not be able to sell as the other way around that those who can't sell can't buy. Any real solution of any individual problem must be part of the bigger solution of the whole problem. We fall or rise together.

REAL. ISOLATION


 Amid all the approving and dis lation" supposed to have been char ted by ambassador-at large Davis recent speech at Geneva, various memrries arise to question how iso lated the United States have been before. Not so far back this country isolated in war cemeteries on the other side of the Atlantic some &C., 900 men. Isolation" under that 1917 degree of it was reflected in more than 100000 men killed asd died. Since than many millions of American wage- -earners' dollars have been isolated abroad and the trend of the past year has been one of constant increase in the amount apparently hopelessly isolated. If this country is scrapping American isolation from participation in Eu- ropean affairs. as some interpret the Davis talk, it might be won dered if such an abandonment of policy would make the next load of American funds isolated abroad still larger than the one now there. While there undoubtedly is fervent European approval of any Amer ican isolation ending policy, 1t is nothing to the approval that would arise here over an end to some for eign nations policy of isolating our funds now there, lent for winning the war and for rebuilding after wards. In certain respects at least tn isolation shoe fits the Euro pean foot much better than 1t does the American

Nations Together

The United States. Great Britain, Italy, Germany and France, the five leading world powers. under American leadership, make supreme effort for world peace. and seem about to realize 1t. This is an almost mir aculous turn of events. just when the arms conference seemed to be going to pieces after year of futility, and Hitler was threatening another European war.
 Now four men = Roosevelt Macdonald. Mussolini and Hitler, have taken the situ- ation in hand, carrying reluctant France with them. A new, tight reassuring peace pact forms magically before the eyes of disillusioned world. War clouds seem in process of being swept away in time to clear the air for the economic conference in London next month.
 The world begins at last to breathe freely. and to wonder whether further miracles are not possible. If gradual but effective mii- tary disarmament can be assured, why not economic disarmament?

Scientific Astrology

Maybe there's something in astrology, after all. Not all that astrologers have claimed of course. but at least little some thing. A popular writer on scientific sub- jeets says there IS arising science which might be called the new astrology' as result of recent astronomical discoveries.
 Dr. w. J. Humphreys, physicist of the United States Weather Bureau, says; Our earth is in the midst of gravity fields, eleetri- cal fields and magnetic fields. It is bom- barded by electrons and Alpha particles shot out of the sun and perhaps out of the stars as we'll The cosmic rays, whose exact nature IS not known, lombard the earth from outer space. Undoubtedly there are other radations which we have not yet tracked down.
 It has been found that the sun and stars have many curious effects on earthly con- ditions. Sunspots affect radio waves. The position of the moon in the sky affects radio reception The planets, too. may have some such effect. And if there are such effects registered on material forces here. why may not influences from heavenly bodies affect our minds and lives2 The idea is not altogether crazy. But don't start yet believing everything in the old astrology books. We are still very far from eharting these subtle forces.
