There is no wonder that the liguor and other interests were surprised at the action of President Wilson in ve- toing the prohibition enforcement bill, that provides mnot only for constitu- tional but war time prohibition. It was quite generally conceded that much as the country had declared for 1919 25th, prohibition and war time [PPORIDItion; fact that General Yudenitch has ont although S| neenily been making a Buccesstul | has been kevt in fort effect has come entirely since _the fighting stopped, that there would be no interruption of the dry spell dur- ing the next two and a half months. Inasmuch as the country has been ing a marked curtailment jn of beer, wines and liguors for the past ferr months, though it is per- eviden® that intoxicants have| been soid. but not on the scale prev: ous to the first of Ju! and a consti~ ional amendment has been adopted | making prohibition obligatory from dle of mext January it was natural to expect that there would be no m ade to introduce a wet spell for a brief time which is so appar- ently against the wish of the country. The action of the house in overriding veto of the president reflects this nd it was not surpi g that senate followed the same course. | The by the president was by the provision in the bill} dealing with war time prohibition. The faet is that the war is no more over now than it was on the first of y. The peace treaty has not been ratified by this country and a state »f peace has not béen declared, and while the president wanted this part the bill eliminated it couldn’t help realized that this would have the putting through congress of » new measure dealing with constitu- ional prohibition just to give thej pell when as a mat- registered time it meant me etoing of the en- forcement bill does not remove the war time prohibition law. TIME TO END WARNINGS. ile the country has been suffer- om the effec the food hoard- na profiteers, and while all sorts | ve been made fo i ple to the bar of jus- it o that most of the efforts \;.endm have been confined to warn- | violators of what terrible! might happen to them In other words they than a slap on the wri o be zood, which of course them aft one or of this kind that) attention to_ it. when he says “We given months’ notice that the food laws were made to be obeyed.

Such immunity with the privilege of violating the law is not given to most people even when such important mat- ters are not at stake. From the way which sugar is being, offered for sale. and even to the food director, though his identity was not at the inas- | lana vounds. }monfir shows. according to the report {smailest amount for any month since ime known, must make it evident to him that warnings have been a fail- ure. What i= needed is the prosecution of these who are responsible for the tying up of the foodstuffs and the ad- vance in the prices because of their acts. That this is the pelicy that will be followed in the future is indicated the statement to the effect that ‘Hereafter we are going to recom- mend to the United States district at- orney for crimiral prosecution alil ases of violation in which we obtain evidence.” It certainly is time. With a few of these profiteers subjected to a stiff fine or jail sentence the best corrective influence would be brought to bear. by ACTION ON BERGER. In view of the eight to one vote of the congressional committee that has been investigating the seating of Vie- tor Berger as congressman from Wis-!| consin there can be no question as to what the action of congress will be in the matter. The opposition to Berger is founded upon the fact that) he has been convicted of violating the espionage law, and the only reason why there was not a unanimous vote against his taking his seat is that one member considered that the ap-| peal to the higher court ought to be awaited before congress took action. | Congressional action is not based ! upon what the court may do. It is a law unto itself and the recormmenda- tion of the commttee will be followed | without any doubt. Congress is the| last place that such a man ought to; be allowed to sit. It was surprising that any congressional district would select such a representative but. the German and socialist elements were ; responsive to Berger's radical attitude during the war and insisted that he carry his views to the floor of con- gress regardless of the fact that a prison sentence for working against the laws of the country was hanging over his head. It took some time for the committee 1o make its report but that overcomes any charge of snap judgment. even though the result is no different than was expected, afid the house should | blindly following Dame Fasnion. —_— the co!

OUR FOREIGN TRADE. For a long time cur export record has been mmpmghu;-wan\_ by leaps ve been doing a big business with other countries for varfous reasons connected with the war and the August report establish- ed a new record. Imports were show- 2 a considerable galn but another of the bureau of foreign and domestic commerce, that there was a marked decline in our export business in Sep- tember while imports bsunded up per- ceptibly. Last July we were doing an import business ' of $343,000,000 but September has bettered the high wa- ter marked by $92,000,000, while in September of last year we were im- porting goods, oniy to the amount of $262.000,000. The rise in immerts and the drop in exports left the excess of latter over the former only $188.- ©60,000 Tor September which s the Juiy 151 For the month of Sentember there a decline in our export trade of £:2.000,000, or from $646.000,000 for August to $592.000,000 for September and only $13,000.000 more than for September of the vear previeus. in the nine months period ending w: iness nearly a billion and a larger then the corresponding period of the vrevious vedr, while our im- oris during the e perisd were more than o third of a billion labger. The slowing up in our expert trade mey be seasonable. may be due to the fact that the foreign market is read- justing itsell or may be due to de- creased dependence upon us, but it is evident unless there is a change in the situation hers that decreased pro- duction in this country will alss ‘have its effects unon this foreign trade, with the result that ihve margin of ex- portz over imbarts will undergo a steady reduction.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR The Entente and Self-Determination. Mr. Bditor; The entente alljes were QGreat Britain, France and Russia, bound by a secret treaty for defensive purposes. No other hation was a member, and their war aims were stated ih my previous letter. In 1916 the British premier said: “We will not sheathe the sword we have unwillingly drawh until we secure for all hations, | great and small, the right to work out | their own destiny unhampered by the | fear of German militarism.” No men- tion is made of “peoples.” = The United States entered the war to defend its own interests and carry our President Wilson'’s high ideals, which were broader and more demo- cratic than those of the entente, and continued to operate against Germany as an independent and separate fight- ing nation for almost one Tear. wntil seeing that defeat of the entente by Germany had come within the ranfio of possibility, President Wilson made a suggestion to’ the entente and asso- ciated allies for co-ordination of all resources, to insure victory for the en- tente and their allies; and they most gladly accepted the suggestion, Persh- shal Foch. This brought victory and the honor, credit and praise belong to the United States, and fo no other fation on the face of the earth. Self-determination is, first, rightful | ownership of area, i. e. land and rivers; gecond, freedom of choice by the people. Every man knows that Poland was a kingdom until partitioned by Ger- man: Austria and Russia. Ireland never was a nation. Ireland wants or i is demanding not equality but domina- tion over Ulster, a distinct race, and no pedple are fit to be given liberty while they deny that same liberty to others. JAMES BE.

It has been said that the city's chie product was theology. But Germany's contempt fot that kind of culture is reflected uneonseciously in Baedeker's guidebook of 1910 which describes it as ‘a dull place with 42,200 inhabitants.’ “Thus the German guide casually dismisses the cradle of Belg'an inde- pendence, an early home of the Eu- ropean weaving industry and a_treas- ure house of marvelous art works.

Beore the war the university had 2,000 students: but at its heyday, in the 16th century its enrollment ex- ceeded §,000. ‘The city of Louvain ever will be remembered as the scene of the grant- ing to the Belgian people by Duke Wenceslaus of the ‘joyous entry,’ and the untversity will be. associated with that charter's preservation, more than four cénturies Tater, when Kaiser Jo- seph, the ‘crowned anarchist’ of Aus- tria, tried to deprive Belgians of their ancient rights. “The circumstances of that resist- ance orm one mfore bond o union be- tween Belg\im and the United States of America, for it took place just ten years after the Declaration of Inde- pendence was signed, ap act which let a deep impress ®.pon the Belgian: “It will be recalled that Emperor Jogeph, brother of Marie Antoinette, had tried to abolish Holland’s fron- tier forts.

General Jacques was in command of the Twelfth regiment, one of the erack military organizations of Bel- zium, and was stationed at Liege, where General Leman was in com- mand. “I had never been impressed by the bombast of the German soldiery and I had full confidence in my own men,” s2id the general as he sat in his plain- 1y furnished cabin on.board the George Washington on the veoyvage to New York and talked of the early days of the war. “We first came in contact with the Germans on the bridge at Vise, and after a sharp fight drove them back, capturing the flag 6f the Ninety- seventh Brandenburg regiment. “That fight aroused the people, and vo)umeerl. trencheés and helping in possible.
