He is a tough cus- tomer, cruel, cunning and malicious, and it is not wise to underestimate his power. But developments of the last year have improved society's chances of coping successfully with the age-old evils of intemperance, poverty caused by drink, and the long train of at- tendant ills which may rightfully be charged to insobriety. The fight for a better order is in the open now. Because of its place in the limelight it will command the) attention and interest of many good citizens who, because we had a pro- hibition law, assumed that we also) had prohibition. Repeal of the prohibition amend- ment cannot reasonably be inter- preted as representing a desire, on the part of the average citizen, for more freedom in drinking than he heretofore has had. He has had all the liberty anyone could wish. For those who like a little nip now and then it may represent a longing for higher quality, however. Some of the stuff that has been sold for Nquor these past years would do credit to an acid factory. But even this had very little to do with repeal, for the people who voted prohibition out were thé same ones who voted it in—and for the very same reasons, In pre-prohibition times they were looking for ways to improve the so- cial order, Prohibition seemed to offer a way and they adopted it. After fair trial it was apparent that the “noble experiment” had failed. ‘There was nothing to do but to turn back and start over. Unfortunately, we shall have to be- gin at the beginning. A good deal of the social antipathy toward use of alcohol vanished during the pro- hibition era. The social disrepute which used to follow intemperance is Rot as pronounced now as it once was, There may linger over, for a little while, the mistaken idea that it is smart to be able to obtain and drink strong liquor. But that will ‘wear away and in time we may have @ situation where real temperance will be the rule; when @ vast ma- jority of our citizens will observe a self-imposed prohibition. That is the goal toward which temperance al- ways has striven. It should not be lost sight of now. Meanwhile, the immediate problem in many areas will be to prevent a rush to debauchery by way of cele- bration. Many will be curious to sample the new legalized whiskey, just as they were furious to try the new beer. But if society gets a little starch in its backbone, if people let it be known that over-indulgence merits nothing but contempt, we may be saved. ‘The crisis, in most states, probably will come soon. After that, it sin- cerely is to be hoped, there will be a steady improvement. Grange. It is an organisation formed to promote the interests of rural larger groups to the latter body and its activities, ‘The Grange is definitely against the strike and picketing tactics, does not recognize the Holiday associa- ‘Trib-| tion. The Farm Bureau, second in size and importance, adopts the same at- titude but ts more vigorous about it, as witness the blast of Edward A. O'Neal, its president, published Tues- day. ‘The Farmers Union position is un- certain. John A. Simpson, its presi- fod dent, has made speeches sympathiz- ing with the strikers and some other Officials have aided in the agitation, but that is about as far as it has gone, As it stands, therefore, the pres- ent farm strike is the child of a very small minority of the nation’s organ- ized farmers. Like an obstreperous ‘and badly-behaved boy, it is demand- ing the right to sit in the front seat and drive the car without having invested anything in the machine or shown any aptitude for running it. That, on the basis of present in- dications, is why the farm strike is Proving abortive in many districts. It explains why, if worst comes to worst, the strike will be broken very quickly by other farmers. Towa legislators told Governor Her- ring that 98 per cent of the farmers around Sioux City are opposed to the strike and to the tactics being used to sustain it. They may be wrong as to the percentage but they could hardly err as to the majority. ‘These are the circumstances which cast doubt upon both the advisability and the ultimate success of the farm strike. Bootlegging in Heritage The bootlegger is a product of mod- ern times. He originated in the United States, but he has a way of appearing in almost any country where people want something which is prohibited by law. His latest ap- pearance is in Germany; and there, of all things, he is peddling—grand- mothers. It happens like this: In Mazi Ger- many @ man hardly can hope to get '@ job unless he can prove that he has “untainted Aryan blood” way back to} the third generation. Consequently there is a huge demand for family records to prove that one’s grandpar- ents were suitably Nordic. A lot of people aren’t eligible for such document; others are eligible enough, but have no papers to prove it. So there is a brisk business in forged papers. For a price, the Ger- man bootlegger will help you prove that your blood is strictly German- gentile for three generations back. Of all forms of bootlegging the world has seen, this surely is one of the oddest. Ethical Brewers A code of ethics has been drawn up for the brewers of the country; and it contains a few paragraphs that make interesting reading. One provides that brewers will not directly or indirectly sell beer to un- licensed outlets or to people who are in any way evading local, state or | Working on That ‘Edifice of Recovery’ } PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE By William Brady, M.
