Cross-Atlantic Cubie Service to The Star. . COPENHAGEN, . January — “It Wwould be a great calamity- if Den- mark were to become prohibition as America is now,” declared Larsen Lede, leader of the Anti-Alcohol League of Denmark, who h’: Jjust re- r turned from a three-month )Jrip to the United States, where he ‘has been | studying the prohibition situation. The plan to start a movement for dry legislation in,Denmark has been abandoned, as ;'}esun of his trip. | And he is strongljlof the opinion that present conditions in America are ruining the character of its people. “What is happening in America is exactly the opposite of what was ex- pected,” he said. “My own. opinion is that prohibition is an absolute fail- ure in the United States. It simply shows how impossible it is to make 2 nation moral by ‘legislation. , The battle against alcohol must be ‘con- ducted along new lines, until the peo- give it up voluntarily. Compul- n evidently will bring results oppo- Jite to those desired.” —_— RAIL EXPENSES INCREASE. Southern Lines Spend 23.8 Per Centt More in October Than Year Ago.
