The matter of allowing the use of school buildings for polling places was tabled for one month. Commissioner E. C. Goodwin reports that there are available schools for all but the sec- ond ward. The new building on South Main street would provide for this district. Members of the board felt that damage would be done the buildings through their use for vot- ing. The school accommodations com- mittee was given power to secure plans and specifications for a new school building on South Main street. On recommendation of the teach- ers' committee, it was voted to open the summer schools Monday, July 10, continuing until Friday, August 11, a period of five weeks. Sessions will be held from 8:30 to 11:30 daily, excep* Saturdays. A principal will be en- gaged at $3.00 per session, and teach- ers at $2.25 per session. The school is conducted every summer for the benefit of pupils who are backward and want the extra teaching in order to keep up with their class, and also for the benefit of some who are desir- ous of finishing their elementary edu- cation sooner than the ordinary pupil.

PROHIBITION FIGHT STARTS IN SWEDEN Liquor (Question to Be Voted on in Augost Stockholm, June 10.—‘“To deprive the majority of citizens, who do not misuse alcoholic liquors, of what is for them an innncent stimulant, be- cause a small number of people abuse liquor seems to be rather a drastic decree.” This opinion is founded in the official report just issued by the medi- cal board of Sweden on the proposed introduction of total prohibition. It has aroused intense interest through- out the country which is now in the midst of a nation-wide nflict be- tween the prohibition forofs and those who want to maintain the present so- called Rratt rationing system, where- by only those who have openly shown their abuse of alcoholies are deprived of its use, Sweden will vote on the liguor question August 27 of this year. Favor Liquor. The medical board points out further that a large number of phy- siclans believe that under certain cir- cumstances, and in the case of certain diseases, alcohol cannot be dispensed with without great disadvantages, and it says that not only the fatatl CENTRAL JR.

It declares that most of the so-called primitive races used alcohol and expresses doubt that a cultured community can suddenly dis- pense with stimulants. If the aim is to produce a non-aleoholic commun- ity, this end must be achieved through legislation imposing gradual restric- tions, s0 that the present and possibly the next generation may be afforded time to change their habits. In conclusion the board, while em- phasizing the necessity for vigorously fighting the misuse of alcohol, recom- mends that the personal restriction system now in force in Sweden be further tested, developed and im- proved Sweden has used the Bratt system for seven years. ['nder it the coun- try's inebriate record reached the lowest figures since 1918 during the first quarter of this year, according tc the Swedish social board. The drop in the inebriety -record has been especially marked in and about Stock- holm, where it amounts to no less than 36.8 per cent. compared to the last quarter of 1921. In some Swed- ish provinefal towns drunkenness has decreased 55 to 60 per cent. IRISH QUESTION NEAR SETTLEME} | T Believe Churchill Will Be in Position to Make Formal Statement to Commons On Monday.

A further meeting of the British signatories of the Anglo-Irish treaty is scheduled for today, and a conference with Ar- thur Griffith, the chief Irish delegate, possibly will follow. i The Ulster frnn‘-r trouble has been smoothed away temporarily at least, and Michael Collins' speech in Dublin last night is taken here that the Southern leaders are determined to avold anything likely to keep the wound open. Nothing further . has been heard from Colling’ protest over the occupation of Pettigoe by the military, and it'is inferred that the British government has given assur- ances acceptable to Dublin.
