SWAN SONG FOR MR.. BARLEYcoRN?

Out of 5000 local option tests since the repeal
of the prohibition amendment, the dry forces have

pie are opening their eyes to the fact that they
were uproarousy fooled by the specious promises
even by those high in national authority-that
"Of course we will never have saloons back and
will keep the liquor business strictly under con
trol! 49,.
Had those engaged in the traffic been willing tc
go about it decently after prohibition was wiped
off the books, they might have assured themselves
long. lease of life; but the liquor business was
never decent never will be -.
We predict that within decade the lesaizeo

part of the map of the United States, and this

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
. SLAUGHTER IN CHINA

Nothing so shocking as the japanese slaughter
of Chinese men, women and children IN Canton IS
in history. Through the ages towns have been laid
waste and their inhabitants destroyed, but there
has not been human slaughter the scale Japan
is committing it. The effort is to shatter the mo-
rale of the Chinese people, to bring them in awe
Of the Mkado's power.
Japan is proceeding on the theory that in war
all the enemy's men, women and children are enc
mics, to be dealt with as enemies. There is no
pretense of protection for the baby in arms, for
the old woman, who is helpless Death is ramed
from the skies promisculously. There is no choice
of military areas, no choice of any sort, Death to
all is the Japanese policy.
Failing to destroy the Chinese armies, the Japa-
nese are bent on raids which are without vestge
of humanity. They are striking down Chinese who
offer them resistance, whose sole ofense is that
they are Chinese. Conditions in other Chinese
towns raded by Japanese, airplanes have been
shocking enough, but conditions in Canton are
unquestionably far than in any of the others.
Western nations are put notice of the ruth
lessness of Japanese warfare. The Mikado's army
and navy stop at nothing. They acknowledge no
rules For all of their veneer they are barbarians.
Attila and his Huns were not so dreadful as these
men under the banner of the Mikado. The Japa-
nese slaughter is committed with no declaration Of
war Their invasion Of China is an illegal raid on
gigantic scale
What is happening to Canton will be happening
TO other Chinese centers if the japanese war sup
plies hold out The mercilessness Of the Canton
air raids is unspeakable. However the Japanese
government tries to Justify it, the Japanese char
acter is laid bare as utterly ruthless and wanton.

plain how anyone can really name
the five biggest"-at which no
government official, except posi-
Oily HaneS, will be present. Ger
tain labor leaders will be invited

Will not be held in Washington.
After industrialiStS and labor
leaders figure out, what recon-

idea iSto call in a few score more
business men, labor men and high
government officials and toss al
