The Foe Within

In orr battle for justice we must
realize that there are thousands of
traitors within our own ranks-men
and women who, having mortgaged
their own craven souls to our en-
emies, are willing and anxious to
sell out our group for a mess Of pot
tage. In myraids Of instances they
have already done SO. Many Of these
beings are like moles which burrow
beneath the surface, and they have
by their pernicious activities placed
the entire structure Of our rights in
peril. The vilest, cruelest, most bru-
tai, craftiest, most venomous, and
most cold-blooded outspoken enemy
is far less dangerous than the vile,
crafty, Sinking, snake-like burrow-
ing foe withinl

State 10 Raise
Liquor Prices

LANSING. Sept 25.-As the
result of sharply increased federal
taxes, liquor price crease 5
ranging from 25 cents to 30 cents
per quart will 60 into effect Oc-
tober /, the liquor commission
announced today.
Scotches will advance about &C
cents, brandieS about 30 cents and
wine from cents TO 5 cents per
fifth. The increase reflects the
new federal taxes of 81 per gallon
on 100 proof WHISTLES, S1.25 on
brandies and II cents on wines.
ITO ease the sudden increase,
the commission has reduced it's
usual markup of so per cent to
46 per cent on WHISTLES and
brandies," Chairman John w.
Miner said.
THE markup on wines, for
merly 25 per cent on Michigan
products and 40 per cent on out
of-State brands, will be reduced
t6 a straight 25 per cent i'm con-
fOrmity with the states policy of
removing trade barriers between
states"
Miner said the states profit will
increase slightly in spite of the
reduced markup because the 40
per cent will be added after the
federal tax Is applied.
