ARE YOU BOUND FOR THE SCRAP HEAP? “Doctor, I am not sick, but I don’t feel right.” That is what many say lo me when they come to see me the first time. And that just expresses it. You are not sick enough to go to bed. You can eat, you can sleep, you can work. But you don’t work with the vim and zest of former days. Your sleep is not restful, and you don’'t enjoy your food as you once did. And your nerves get the best of you. Things bother you, ruffle you, that you never aoticed before. - You begin to see dif- dculties where there really are none, Trifles worry you, and not having enough troubles of, your own, you borrow some. Of course, to a casnal observer, you seem’the, same, bécause you are try- ng to control yourself. And if you should ;tell a’friend, . or go to an in- expérienced doctdr; they “will tell you you only imagihe things; 'you should shake it off. You begin'to doubt your- You sometimes think they are ight and try to braée up and be sright and cheerful.” But then your old feeling will ‘come back with re- newed vigor. You begin to wonder if it really is your mind only. And it { is so, is it the first step to insan- ity?

They the Randall Emergency of son came out amend- bill, ministrator against ment to the and, as result, Senator of Texas, said late yesterday amendment would be stricken the bill by the senate. The Randall amendment, adopted in the house against the president's wishes, provided that $6,000,000 of the money appropriated by the meas- ure should not be expended unless the president had first issued a proc- lamation prohibiting the use of fruits or cereals during the war in the man- ufacture of heer or lizht wines. This singly ood a would have cnded the manufacture in the United States of any alcoholic beverage. It would not have made the country ‘“bone dry” immediately, because there are 100,000 gallons of wl in stock, as well as large suprlies of beer and wines, according to Mr. Hoover. “But Mr. Hoover stated that if this amendment were adopted, it would set the whole country to drinking whiskey exclusively as an alcoholic rage in a short time,” said Sen- or Sheppard, “inasmuch as the sup- plies of beer and light wines are comparatively much smaller than the supply. This in itself was sufficient reason, in Mr. Hoover's judgiment, for the Jdefeat of the amendment, but he added that it was totally unnecessary as a conser- vation measure and would work a needless ha of husiness rdship on a large number men in certain parts of the country, and would therefore do nicre harm than good.” The administration’ rong stand against the amendment is expected to cause the house to recede from its irsistence upon it. Hoover Expliins Attitude. Following a conference with Presi- dent Wilson, Mr. Hoover made public a statement in which he apposéd the Randall amendment. In a letter o Senator Sheppard, lcader of the pro- hibition faction in the senate, he re- ferred to an exchange of communica- tions between the president and the senator, and indicated that the presi- dent held the same views as himself. In his statement, Mr. Hoover says: “As to the discussion of the sup- n of brewing, I wish to say em- phatically that from a strictly food conservation point of view, I should like to see the use of foodstuffs sup- pressed in all drinks, hard and soft. This is not, however, the whole story. We stopped distilling a year ago. There is a long supply of whiskey, gin and other 20 per cent. to 40 per cent. distilled drinks in the country. We have reduced the consumption of foodstuffs in brewing by 30 per cent. and Teduced the alcohal content of beer to 2 per cent. “If we stop brewing the saloons of the country will still be open, but con- fined practically to a whiskey and gin Any true advocate of temper- and of national efficiency in these times will shrink from this situation, for the national danger in it is greater than the use of some 4,000,000 busheis of grain monthly in the breweries. If the American people want prohibition it should prohibit by legislation to that end and not force the Food ad- ministration to the ponsibility for an orgy of drunkenness. It is mighty difficult to get drunk on 2 3-4 per cent. beer; it will be easy enough we force a substitution of distilled drinks for it. “The Food administ ation has gone as far as it rd temperance thout precipitating a worse situa- tion. If the American people or con- gress will stop the sale of Aistilled liquors, the admini difficulty in stopping brewing. Letter to Senator Sheppard. Writing to Senator Sheppard, Mr. produced in this country ;, of which a very small proportion are available as table or raisin grapes, ‘and, therefore, the stoppage of wine making would add no consequential amount of food to our national supplies. The conversion of vineyards to other production would not be likely so long as there is pros- pect of resumption of wine making at later date. The conversion of these apes to grape juice instead of wine, suggested, would add nothing to our are from grap a national food supplies. “With regard to brewing, the alco- holic cantent of beer was reduced to 23-4 per cent, and the amount of grain and other foodstuffs that could be used has been limited to 70 p cent. of that used during the corres- ponding period of the previous year, the effect being to stop any expansion of brewing and to reduce the food- stuffs consumed by 30 per cent. The actual amount of ain being used in the brewing of heers is at the present time approximately 4,500,000 bushels per month of which approximately 30 per cent. is recovered cattle feed, and the therefory into the beer is practic the. equivalent of 3,150 000 bushels per month, the grains used being barley, corn and broken ric There is, of course, a great deal of contention that the beer itself con- tains the remaining food values. But, omitting this, the ¢ ion of brew: ing would effect a saving in grain of approximately ,150,000 bushels a month, from a nutritive point of view, It needs no comment from me, from a food point of view, that T should favor the saving of this amount of in “It does appear to me that the losses in food are entirely secondary to the moral and physical dangers. The pres- jdent’s letter indicates his feceling in this particular. “You are prohably aware that T have been a lifelong believer in na- If You Are Interested in Saving Money in WOMAN’S APPAREL Watch Friday’s Paper It Will Mean Thrift to You APHAEL’S SPECIALTY SHOP 170 - 172 Main Street Next to Savings Bank All Cars Stop at Door EXPERIENCED SALESLADIES WANTED tional temperance: on the other hand, 2s a purely administrative officer of the government, I have felt strongly that 1 should not enter into any con- tentious matters.” Senator Sheppard and other prohi- bition leaders are considering a plan for disposition by the government of whiskey held in storage to eliminate it as a source of supply for beverage purposes.
