AMERICA’S DRY FIGHT PRAISED BY LADY ASTCR Bays England Should Begin Teaching Children for Future Results. BABY VERSUS BREWER By FLOYD McGRIFF. (Staff Correspondent International New* Serried. LONDON, March 13.—American educational methods that helped to make the United States “dry” were praised today by Viscountess Nancy Astor. M. P., who is waging a sturdy temperance fight in Great Britain. “In America the work for temperance was started fifty years ago in the schools,” she said. “Children were taught the evil effects of alcohol. British children have not had that advantage, but they must be warned. It is a fight for the future generations. What is it to be, I ask, the babies or the brewers?” ASKS L.IIV FOUNDING FUTURK PROHIBITION. “The drink control bill of the government must go further than the mere regulation of hours of sale. It should form the foundation of future prohibition. “When I was campaigning for election to the house of commons at Plymouth all my advisers said: ' 'Do not mention the liquor question. The brewers will knife you." I told them I certainly would discuss the liquor question and I did so in my speeches. In fact, at a unionist dinner, when the men held glasses of liquor aloft, I toid them that if I had my way all the booze in the United Kingdom would - be at the bottom of the sea. “The breweries and distilleries will have just as much power as wo let them have.” SHOWS COURAGK OF HER CONVICTIONS. That the American-born viscountess has the courage of her r-onvictlons has been shown by her attacks upon the liquor interests since she took her sent iu commons. Although a militant in politics Viscountess Astor is the last person one would pick out of a group of women for the bold progressive she i. She has the figure of a girl, although she is the mother of six children. In height she is not more than live feet three inches, but so acutely vibrant is her personality that there is bo suggestion of frailness. The viscountess likes best to be regarded as the old-fashioned mother who is doing what she can for other peopl*as well as for her own family.
