Roland Sawyer, of Ware, Mass., testifies that the act makes a crime of what is not a moral wrong. Dr. J. C. Vorbeck, of St. Louis, testifies that the sugar and yeast of grandma's pies are likely to produce more “kick” than 114 per cent beer. Charles A, Windle, distinguished Chicagoan, testifies that grape growers have been given $1,600,000,000 by the Volstead non- forcement. The Grain Trade association, of San Fran- cisco, testifies that Volstead has robbed American fart of a market for produce of 8,000 square miles of al lands. And there is a whole library of testimony to the effect t the Volstead law produces contempt of all law and official crookedness. While the variety of testimony is quite remarkable, it is simply astonishing to note the complete unanimity on 2.75 per cent “kick” as the cure for all Volstead evils. You'd almost think that all America has been studying the 2.75 per cent “kick” in beer ever since beer was in- vented. Nobody seems to have discovered t while John Smith can carry 2.75 as he would milk, 2 per cent may make Bill Jones a 100 per cent devil ’ “Don't Blame George” ‘6)ON’T blame George. He has always done the best he could, but he was up against it like me. Fut in the world to work—no education, no training. Nothing to do. but work like dogs. I don’t think I will have any worse hell in the place where I am going.” That was the note Mrs. George Ward, of Denver, wrote before she turned on the gas and killed her three chil- dren and herself. We might moralize at length on her attitude toward life and tell how cowardly it is to resort to murder and suicide as a means of escaping the burdens of the hard world, but what is the use? It isn’t the one thus offend- ing that needs to be indicted to point a moral. Rather are we to third degree ourselves and learn that, with all our deliberately organized charity and widespread phil- anthropy, we still fall far short of letting the milk of human kindness flow where most of it is needed. In this country there should not be even one Mrs. Ward believing the hell of tradition seems so much softer and sweeter than life that it is worth a triple murder and suicide to attain it.
