MAKING EVERYBODY MADDER “American customs officers broke Britikh seals and took liquor off the Baltic and the Berengaria. Other ships, British, French, Italian, etc., are.getting the same treatment. As soon as a manifest is filed showing that liquor has been brought into American waters, in excess of the medical allowance, it is taken out. “There is a lot of trouble here which the United States is imposing on the ships of other nations and some of it may get loose. Lloyd George urges the British to be pa- tient and to give America a fair chance to work out the great ex- periment. . Possibly they will be. but it has not been their habit to take kindly to interference with their shippng. “We creating a situation which will prevent ships of other nations from having freedom in their own legal customs and even from obeying their rationing laws on the high seas. We are giving the British, Japanese, French, Ital- ians and other nations a common cause against us and a common reason to dislike us more than they! already do. :a fairly could assert that to be served in its ports. reminds the British carrying ships have bootlegging in American ports. the United States otest and to,stop and French engage] rum running trade which! violates our law.

Lloyd George may urge patience, but it will be a wonder if there is no attempt at retaliation. France, Italy, Great Britain and Japan might say that no ship which denies their nationals the right on| the high seas to drink beverages| legal at home shall be permitted within their waters. “Many ways of retaliation could be planned and if American dry laws given effect on the sea make the United States an effective chal- lenger on the sea retaliation will be undertaken. America hasn’t got a friend in the world. Too many people owe it money which they are trying or refusing to pay. It is supposed to sing through its nose, talk cant, and wear black gloves. Being generally disliked it now is making everybody madder.—The Chicago Tribune. ! BREAKING THE BRITISH SEALS “The Enquirer and News is per- haps safe from suspicion of being “liberal” on the subject of prohi- bition and its enforcement. “This newspaper has been dry as the Arizona climate for a good many years past. “Yet, being dry, the Enquirer and News can scarcely get the “hang” of the plan for breaking the seals on the liquor brought into port by foreign vessels. Viewed from this distance, and viewed, too, through what may be a fog of ignorance and misunderstanding, it looks as though the action with respect to the foreign ships and their sealed- up liquor supply represented the straining at a gnat where a good many camels are elsewhere being swallowed. “That is to say, we seem to be going quite a way out of the road to find something to do for the en- forcement of the prohibitory law, while it probably is possible to find a good deat to do in the regular line of business without going off the road at all. “They still talk rather brashly of how the liquor comes regularly across the Canadian line, and there is a good deal to say about the pros- perity of the bootlegging profession in New York. Liquor which has been formally sealed up and is to remain sealed until it is transported outside the zone of American au- to be reasonably well removed from the possibility of doing any damage within the meaning of the prohibi- tory law—-enough so, at least, that it might be let alone while energies are directed toward the more ob- vious forms of prekibitery viela- tion —Battle Creek Inquirer and News. BODIES AND BRAINS Gen. Gouraud, “Lion of Argonne” is making his first visit to this coun- try. The right arm of this . great French soldier is gone, he still limps from a wound in his right foot, and he bears scars of several other wounds received in his many cam- paigns. But he is still in the service of his country. Had Gen. Gouraud been a aol- dier of the United States he would now be out of the service on little| pay on account of these physical defects. His body is broken, but his brain is not—and France knows it is that brain, and not the body, that makes the great soldier. ~- TODAY’S ANNIVERSARIES -- 1758—William Polk, Revolutionary patAot and last surviving field officer of the.

Names of those injured in the accident were not given in the report except that the man and boy most seriously hurt were a Mr. Her- wig and son. The accident happened about 8 o'clock yesterday evening when the party was returning to Rawlins after celebrating the Fourth of July in Saratoga. As the car descenced a hill and rounded a sharp curve, Herwig, thinking that his aon, who was driv- ing, was not turning short enough to make the curve, grabbed the steering wheel with the result that the car was overturned.
