CHURCHES SEE REPEAL AS AID TO TEMPERANCE

Religious Melting Pot Brings All Faiths Back of Recovery Program. • Continued From P.tge One| left but a vacuum without it. but *** now arc marching into anew day of personal temperance and individual sobriety." The Rt. Rev Joseph M Francis Bishop of the Indianapolis D:oe a se of the Episcopal Church Christlanity demands that man be temperate m all things. Christianity does not deal with prohibitions but positive commands. Under the old dispensation it was 'Thou Shalt Not' but under the new ‘Thou Shalt ’ I never have believed in prohibition. I never have been a teetotaler in principle. "While the eighteenth amendment Is in effect I obeyed it absolutely. I think that people are hostile to anv idea of coercion. They believe in liberty. "The wav to secure temperance is not through laws but through thp education and discipline of *he character That, is the slow method but the only sure one ■ Can't l egislate Righteousness The Rev L. C F, P ack!' r. pastor of St. Matthew's Evangelical Lutheran church of the Ohio synod. East New York and Oxford streets —"The dav that the government tried to legislate drinking it multiplied Its grief In other words, they put that which could be abused in the open where thev could not regulate it. "This automatically demanded the repeal of the eighteenth amendment. You never can legislate a man righteous. "In considering temperance I think like St Paul, ‘a man should be tem{>erae in all things. Eating is noble, but to be gluttonous is sin." I p to Individual Is that the new deal in temperance. or is it just a repetition of solid facts that the church cavalcade always has heard? Every church is concerned with the fundamentals of the new (always old> question of temperance. Dr. Benson also says: "There is a new philosophy of personality to some, the eating of a meal is an offense. A person must have room to exist, to live, to keep ones personality. "The greatest biography of God ever written is told in the Old Testament— lam that I am.’ That is the fundamental of the new temperance. Tlie church has a supreme challenge of service to show them that they are the judge and the jury on controversial subjects." "The church must remember that the individual must take that responsibility" Vote Not Requirement And many church leaders have said that they are not surprised at the unanimous majority state vote taken for the repeal of the eighteenth amendment. The church today does not closie its doors to those who voted that way or this way. That’s tiie new and probably the always old fact the marching cavalcade has realized. But the cavalcade is moving in greater numbers than ever to accept temperance. Temperance again is here in thought, manners and creed. The cavalcade has made it possible. The church group, as leaders point out. will have anew personal, sane and honest control of the legislation on lemperanec. Personal responsibility to temperance and the definite leadership of the church have gone into the great religious melting pot. Next —Your Hospital. My Hospital. JOBLESS MAN SUICIDE Alfred Price. SO.

BV RODNEY DITCHER SJ \ Writer WASHINGTON. Aug 7 - Ratification of the repeal amendment automatically would toss the liquor problem bark to s he states. If a thirty-sixth state convention were to ratify*, the secretary Os state here would be notified promptly. He immediately would proclaim adoption of the repeal amendment Liquor then would become legal In about half the states, representing a large majority of the country’s population. Its manufacture and sale in wet territory would be subject only to state and local control regulations plus the old federal internal revenue laws. Few, if any, states plan to permit a return of the saloon. Foreign liquor could be imported immediately into wet, states with the advent of repeal. The domestic whisky stocks are far from adequate for the anticipated demand and a huge flood of imported liquor is expected. The tariff on it would be $5 a gallon, which would have to be paid in addition to the internal revenue spirits tax of SI 10. Congress probably quickly would boost the internal revenue tax unless it should be held that the rate of $6 40 provided for illicit liquor In a 1926 law—still applied. As far as th° federal government is concerned, the situation upon repeal would be exactly that which prevailed before there was any national prohibition law. Distillers could begin to manufacture hard liquor at once, although the federal bottled-in-bond law requires that whisky be aged four years. The aging requirement would assure a long hiatus of shortage insofar as American whisky is concerned. There are less than four million gallons of old liquor in bond-ni warehouses, much of which will be consumed under the liberalized medicinal prescription law before the end of the year. About 10000.000 gallons are being made or aged. Murh of that whisky would be stretched by blending it, with newer spirits, but pre-prohibition consumption ran around 130.000.000 gallons a year. ana SOME distilleries now are operating under permits to fill

medicinal whisky has trebled and quadrupled since the new prescription law was passed, so they are increasing output and probablv will be going full blast bv fall. Permission for other distilleries to manufacture in advance of repeal has been requested and now is being considered by officials here. Brewers, according to informal legal opinion at the department of justice, could begin making, immediately upo n repeal, beer of alcoholic content higher than the present. 3.2 per rent limit. The only federal string on retailers would be the requirement that they pay the government a special stamp tax of $25 a year. Manufacturers and wholesalers also would have to have tax stamps.

Contract Bridge

BY W. E. M’KEN'NEY, Secretary American Bridie League I AM pleased to present to you today one of our new master players in the person of Samuel Pry ♦ who, with his teammates, recently won the All-American Contract j Team-of-four Championship. Fry well demonstrates the type of bridge that is played by the strong group of contract players at Deal, N. J„ headed by P. Hal Sims. It was with this group that Fry as a youngster first played, and today he ranks as one of the youngest of ( champions. Fry has given us what I would call an exceptionally interesting tournament hand, not because of its good bidding or play, but to show the strategy that a real champion must employ when he finds himself m a difficult situation. Fry held the North hand. His partner opened the contracting with one club. Fry over railed with one spade—a one over one force. South showed the safety of the hand with a bid of two spades. Fry then bid two no trump. South bid three spades and Fry had a close question to decide whether this was a nine or ten-trick hand. It looked more simple to him to make nine tricks and so. instead of bidding four spades, he went to three no trump., B B B EAST opened the six of hearts. West played the jack and Fry won with the queen He immediately saw that four spades was a spread and even though he made AA-Q-10-2 VQ-10-8-3 ♦ Q-5 AQ-J-10 A J-9-7 NORTH as _ 3 VJ-5 £ n yA-9-7- ♦ K-10- uj co 6-2 8-7 £ H ♦ A-J-9-2 *9-6-5- Dealer A 8-2 4 SOUTH AK-8-6-4 VK-4 ♦ 6-4-3 AA-K-7-3 26 three no trump, he would have a bad score on the board. His only chance, therefore, was to try to make four no trump. This could only be accomplished by establishing another heart trick. However. Fry realized that if he led a heart immediately his opponents would start the diamond suit and

SOME of the state governors already have taken this course, and it is rumored that Roosevelt has considered a manifesto releasing federal prohibition prisoners. Several states have established liquor commissions or control boards to deal with the problem of regulation. Some probably would adopt variations of the Canadian and Swedish systems. No uniformity is in sight and it isn't certain that repeal wouldn't bring an unrestrained liquor traffic into some areas while new state law’s are being awaited. The following states now have

West played low and Fry played the queen. East winning with the ace. East could not be blamed for not returning a diamond so long as the declarer had started to establish that suit himself, so he returned a spade which Fry won and then led a heart. East won with the ace and continued with another spade. Fry then spread the hand for four no trump and top score on the board. (Copyrißhl. 1933. by NEA Service.

There are six poems in this little booklet, and they seem to me to be extraordinarily good. America. Mr. MacLeish seems to feel, is usually woefully misunderstood. Eastern aesthetes, he implies, miss her essence entirely: the empire builders, loot her and despoil her without once appreciating her; the foreign-accented revolutionary doesn't even begin tocomprehend her. Her tawny plains, her painted mountains, her roughness and lusty richness and ancient human traditions—these, for some reason, escape her critics, her artists, her ruler.

CAPITAL FEARS INTERVENTION IN CUBA NEAR

U. S. Ambassador Working Day and Night to Stem Revolt Tide. BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Scripiw-Howard Foreirn Editor WASHINGTON. Aug. 7.—There is grave anxiety here lest Cuban intervention be forced upon the United States despite anv’hing and everything the administration can do to prevent it. Ambassador Sumner Welles, at Havana. is working day and night to stem the tide of revolution and make peace between President Machado and his foes But dispatches today indicate he is fighting a losing battle. The general strike now paralyzing the island is not just an ordinary strike. Officials here are well aware that it merely is a form of revolution against Machado, and that even if the well-paid Cuban army succeeds in putting it down, the revolt will break out again in some new form. It is denied that Ambassador Welles is instructed, or is attempting. to force the resignation of Machado But. the writer understands on the authority of a representative group of Cubans in this country, there will be no peace until General Machado goes. Want Machado Ousted The formula favored by the general’s opponents is the appointment of a vice-president acceptable to the latter, followed by Machado’s resignation leaving the vice-president to form anew government. Many Cubans believed this or some similar solution would be adopted by Ambassador Welles when he first offered his good offices to the warring factions at Havana. They believed Washington favored the plan and that by Jan. 1, 1934. Machado would be out. Today they are not so sure. Machado has denied he intends quitting office, while those here in a position to know insist Ambassador Welles has no intention of trying to oust him. Peace negotiations, therefore, appear deadlocked. Short of absolute anarchy in the island with lives definitely at stake, and with no other means to prevent butchery, the United States will not resort to force, it is understood. The era of lightly leaping into armed intervention in Latin-America apparently is past. IT. S. Has Authority to Act The Platt amendment, governing United States-Cuban relations, however. remains. Article 111 of that document is interpreted as making it the duty of this country to intervene “for the preservation of Cuban independence iand> the maintenance of a government adequate for the protection of life, property and individual liberty.” Under its provisions the United States twice has landed trooDs on the island, in 1906 and in 1912. In 1512. pressure was brougnt to bear on Cuba to declare the 1920 elections fraudulent, hold new elections and institute widespread political and economic reforms. At least 90 per cent cf Cubans are described as opposed to the “unconstitutional” Machado regime. His term does not expire until 1935. Chaos May Be Created He has the well-armed army on his side—the only well-paid group in the island. It has airplanes, tanks, machine guns, artillery and gas. The opposition has not, and without them revolt, old style, is impossible. That is why the Cuban masses are using the general strike, the creation of chaos and the sowing of terror by individuals and groups. Wholesale sabotage of railways, public utilities. industries, cane and tobacco fields is another weapon. Unless Ambassador Welles soon succeeds in patching up a truce or Machado goes, all these, it is feared, will be used to the full. DRY LAW VIOLATORS LEAD PROBATION LIST Report of IT. S.

SEN. ROBINSON GIVEN WELCOME BY THOUSANDS

Economy Law Is Branded Gross Injustice by Speaker. Blaring bands and drum corps, massed flags colorful uniforms and more than 2.000 marchers, featured the welcome home to Senator Arthur R. Robinson Sunday by the allied veterans. Standing on the north steps of the World War Memorial monument, before the largest flag procurable in Indiana. Senator Robinson expressed his appreciation of the ceremony and told some 10.000 listeners: "Verily the veteran has become the ’forgotten man.’ ” He was presented as "soldier and statesman" by Clarence a Jackson, past Indiana department commander of the American Legion and holder of the Democratic administration past of state tax collector. Called Nonpolitical Guv A. Boyle of the Spanish* American war veterans presided and stressed the idea that the meeting was nonpolitical, although C 11. Board, past commander of the Kentucky department of the United Spanish war veterans had already urged veterans to vote for Robinson. Among the flags and banners forming the platform background was one advertising "Robinson day" at El wood, Sept 4. and carrying the slogan: “Win with Robinson ” Many politicians were on hand and they predicted that Robinson will be the G O. P. candidate for re-election, they pointed out that the crowd Indicated a grip on the veteran vote equal to that in the last campaign of Governor Paul V. McNutt. Economy Law Assailed l James C Magnus, general chairman of the allied veterans' organization sponsoring the meeting, introduced Boyle. Harry M Franklin had charge of the parade The economy law, whereby veterans’ pensions were curtailed and payment halted on non-service connected disabilities, was branded by the senator as "the most cruel, brutal. and utterly indefensible art ever passed by a cowardly congress." “It is an insult to every one who pver wore the uniform in defense of the country." he declared. Credit for its passage he attributed to the National Economy League, which hp termed “a group of millionaire and near-millionaires, in the shadow of Wall Street." Veterans Defamed, He Rays He declared the league fosterer! a nation-wide campaign in which the "war veterans were abused, villified, defamed, and slandered by vicious propaganda in every direction. from coast to coast ’’ Once more the senator charged that ''disabled veterans were ruthlessly thrown out of the hospitals in their underwear" anti closed by saying: "The so-called economy act must be repealed at the earliest possible moment. Only thus can be righted the inexcusable wrong that has been done the veterans of tho United States."
