It is a worthy cause; any | cause is worthy when it is! aimed at helping a man who seems unable to help; himself, but, in the final an-! alysis, only one man can save the drunkard, and that man is the. drunkard him- self. | Without the help of his) will power, a thousand or- ganizations cannot save him} from a drunkard’s grave.| He is “hell bent” to destroy | himself, and, unless he ex- erts will power to stop drinking he is doomed. Frequently we have heard | the remark that alcoholism| is a disease, and that an, alcoholic is unable to ccm-| bat the disease. Such a statement is poppycock. Aj man can do what he wishes by bringing into play his} latent will power. That is) the thing, if exercised deter-| minedly, that will save the; drunkard. | In Key West we have} many eases that prove aj man can stop drinking, re-/ gardless of how much booze | he has drunk, or how jong he has been a drunkard. and had reached that point where it required a glassful of aguardiente to satisfy his yearning for one drink, de-! cided one night to give up| drinking. That day he had} drunk more than two quarts other Arab countries. The! communique, issued after) the conference, contained | no threats but was rather) marked by appeals to the} friendship of Great Britain and the United States. There will be a tendency on the part of some Ameri- eans to view the accord with | | As he had told her the of aguardiente, and he made his decision immediately | after having “downed” a! glassful of rum. When he went home, he told his wife of his decision. me thing a hundred times be- fore, she doubted what he said, though she did not ex- @ supercilious smile, but no| press her doubt. But, as he ne sheuld overiook the fact at, safter the death of} ohammed, the Arabs, act-! ime.in centuries, played an | pertant jpart in t erld’s history,’ advancing | r beyond | their gi Asia in 1258 and aut the-same. time. in Af, and.Europe, with the Higaicm of Granada in Spain being about the time Columbus “was coming to the New World. | In fact, it was largely Arabic science which arous-' ed all Europe. The race pro-| duced a mass of books on) philosophy, mathematics, | astronomy and_ astrology, geography, medicine and) encyclopedias, which had, widely extended influence! throughout the known world. WORLD FARM PROGRAM | Representatives of thirty- ene nations have agreed | upon a constitution for the International Federation of Agricu tural Producers, al-/| though it should be noted! that three of the four United | States farm organizations| represented at the confer- | ence opposed immediate or- ganization. | The purpose of the organ-! ization is to create world pressure to gain for farmers! assured prices and markets and for all people an im- proved nutritional diet. Eventually, they hope to | have national surpluse s| treated as world assets, say-| ing that the alternatives are | high-price dumping on the world, with price warfare, | or a return to pre-war com- modity agreements that were international restric-| tive cartels. We note that the National | Farmers Union of America| was the only U. S. farm| group to support immediate | organization, which was op-} posed by the National Coun- | eil of Farmer Cooperatives, the American Farm Bureau Federation and the National Grange. The other organ- izations favored an interim commission, without author- ity to advise the United Nations farm group or simi- lar bodies We are not familiar with as a body for the first | the! and the man, natural | ontiers.to found empires in, Tike cegas of the globe. | d@minance termin-| overthrown | | him until Father’s Day. | | the relates the story, he said he saw the doubt in her eyes, and he assured her, “I mean} it this time, my dear.” That was 14 yéars ago, now a. city employe, has not drunk a drop of liquor since. then. And then ‘we. have. a county official, whe, 15° years ago, expressed a’ sim- j ilar determination, atid’ he| too has. not. tasted liquor, since. It is ‘ridiculous to say aj man has lost his will power. | His will power may be dor-' mant but never dead, and it has become dormant be- cause he has failed to exer-| cise it. He can make it a! live and steadfast thing any time he wishes, but, if he lets it continue to sleep, all the organizations in the! world cannot save him from sticking to a habit that gradually is wearing out; his life. If the habit is drink- ; ing liquor to the extent that he has become a drunkard, he alone can save himself. Will power! That is the CLASSIFIE!
