Seattle Ministerial Union, held on Monday, April 18, 1921, at the Y. M. C. A, the following was unanimously jadopted by the Union, and its officers were asked to forward hit to you: “The Seattle Ministerial Union strongly resents the in- ference carried in a recent editorial in The Seattle Star, that the ministers of Seattle are not in sympathy with prohibi- |tion and with law-enforcement, because one un-named min- ister may have, by his own confession, been guilty of a vio- lation of the law.” And they further wish to put on record the following: “The members of the ministerial union hereby declare | themselves as unqualifiedly in favor of our prohibition laws, | land they hereby pledge their hearty support to the officers) responsible for law enforcement, in the performance of their |sworn duty.” PHILIP BAUER, President. It would be perfectly asinine for any one to infer or portant number of them, are not in sympathy with pro- hibition. The Star prides itself on not being so absurd | |as to give that impression. The Star did speak of one! THE SEATT minister who did not believe in total prohibition. The | Ministerial Union apparently is carrying a chip on its shoulder if it reads in that statement an inference that the clergy generally is against the present dry laws. The Star would be very much surprised if that were | the case, and so would the public in general. How-| ever, that is beside the point involved in the editorial | referred to. The question raised was not whether pro- hibition, as an abstract proposition, was good or bad, and whether it should be enforced or not. The edi- torial merely referred to the practical difficulties it has encountered, and asked whether popular sentiment} was behind the law. The law is with us, and should be enforced. But so long as popular sentiment is opposed to any law, the difficulties of enforcing it can be imag- jined. Under such circumstance, there is quite a re- | spectable class of thinkers, many of them ardent pro- |hibitionists, who believe the ultimate results could be| But they are entitled to Historically, we see a parallel in the old slavery} tion. No figure stands out more prominently in is respect than Abraham Lincoln’s. But Abraham Lincoln, when elected president, and even after the civil war broke out, favored the gradual emancipation of the slaves. He never favored abolition in one sud- den gulp. For years he pleaded against the program outlined by the abolitionists. It was only when he was convinced that the emanci- pation proclamation would aid the Union as a WAR been to keep the sla evil from into new territory, and mot to kill it outright im the o ve-hold- ing states. Lincoln, of course, was one of the most patient men in history, and, tho he slavery, he possessed that calmness which makes for ical vision. He was willing to reach for Utopia by gradual stages. Had North and South followed his with the faith we now have in him, slavery have passed out of existence without four years of bloody war. We are not assuming that this proves the case for gradual P bition. Nor are we assuming that be- cause be enforced. But we hope we are sufficiently broad-minded to see that there may be more than one side involved in a question that is, indeed, large and important. Ever Happen to You? OHN BLANK, the busy business executive, picks up his | Smith of the firm of Punk, Bunk & Monk.” Mr. Smith is gotten on the line and is told to “wait a minute, please.” It develops that Mr. Blank has ambled} across the hall to a neighbor's office or is down at the far end of the factory. He has a mania for getting as far away from the phone as possible, after putting in a call. Smith, at the other end of the line, rests wearily on his | elbow and goes into a comatose state watching the window \cleaner aeross the street. After about five minutes, Blank has been successfully paged and rushes in to phone. “Sorry to have kept you waiting.” he If Smith gets a dozen such calls in a day, he loses an our. This is a pest, and a growing one, that has risen in busi- ness within the past few years. It has been made possible by the era of private switchboard operators. In the days when a business man had to make his own telephone calls direct, he had to stay on the job until he got his party. Nobody’s time was wasted. Thoughtlessness? Yes. But it can easily be remedied. Have a little consideration for the other fellow’s time. Don’t put in a phone call for him unless you are ready to stay nearby to get your connection.
