Barnum Would Have Chuckled The promised disappearance o f the “ gangster” with the coming of beer and possible return of whisky is not coming true. It was one of the baits held out by many professional wets. Prohibition, they declared, had gen­ erated wholesale crime. Erase prohi­ bition, they argued, and snuff! out goes the gang. But the gangsters were principally beer men. They made it and they sold i t Whisky was a sideline. The Chicago “ gang wars” were beer wars. And now beer has been made legal. Where has‘ the gang gone? It hasn't gone anywhere. It is still in business, prohibition or no prohibition. The people who swallowed the wets’ pro­ mise of “ no gangs” have turned out simply to be a new genus o f a finny tribe that Barnum made popular. He called them “ suckers.” day, beginning at II a. m.

The greatest increase .in employ­ ment after repeal will undoubtedly be among the alibi-finders, Hitherto, prohibition has been made responsible for, let us say, ten thousand things that are wrong with this country. New reasons will now have to be dis­ covered.—New York Times. The National Dry Convention will be held in, Cleveland January 14-17. This convention is held every two years and is generally held at Wash­ ington, D- C. Speakers of national prominence will, occupy the pulpit of the Cleveland churches of northeast Ohio January 14. It looks as if restrictions will be removed, but if so, we predict a re­ vival of dry sentiment as soon as liquor flows again that will be so uni­ versal and powerful that the victor­ ious “ wets” will find themselves a- gain. in the minority. This nation will not endure what our fathers tol­ erated, and it will not continue half wi d and half dry.—The Presbyterian. Miss Elsie Shroades, who teaches in the Walnut Hills school in Cincin­ nati, spent Saturday with her aunt, Mrs. Cora Trumbo, She left Satur­ day evening for Asheville, N. C., where she will, spend the Holidays with her sister1, Mrs. Burton Mc- Elwain, and family. Andrew J. Volstead, author of the Volstead Act, warns the wets as fol­ lows: “ I grant that you won,” concedes the former Representative, “ but do not forget that you are now on trial. You have won through politics, through the lavish use of money, the rankest- kind of propaganda and brazen nullification of the Constitu­ tion. Now let us see that you live up to. your promises. “ You have promised that the saloon is not to come back. Is there still anyone silly enough to believe that you will carry out that promise after you have authorized the sale of beer, three ordinary glasses of which con­ tain as much1: alcohol as two ordinary glasses of whisky? “ Be not too confident. Only a little more than one-fourth the voters have cast their ballots for repeal . . . The drys were over confident. .It behooves the Wets not to make their mistake. In the future, you will have to ans­ wer for failures; all the misdeeds and suffering of the future you cannot lay to prohibition; as you laid them to prohibition in the past,” FIRST CHURCH Dwight R.
