(Prov. 22:6. » » * \ lecturer recently declared, in beginning hi"* lecture, that he had received his moral training "at the Knee of a devoted mother and across thj knee of a determined father."

Hoffman, New Jersey motor vehicle commissioner, has issued a state ment which is in the nature of a warning to beer consumers in that State. It. is as follows: "Entirely apart from any personal taste, either for or against beer or for or against wet views or dry «>ne^, motor vehicle and traffic officials arc hoping that the beer user will watch its potential effects upon his driving safety. Theoretically, at. least, 3.2 per cent heer is non-intoxicating. It is conceivable, however, that r>n excess consumptior of i* by certain individuals might result in an ad verse effect upon the mental alertness ami skill with which they operate their automobiles. This group, be it large or small, must realize that there can be m> abatement of the motor vehicle regula tions and penalties for driving under the influenco of alcohol."' Commendable as may be the continued efforts of the New Jersey official to en force the laws against drunken motor ve hicle drivers, it is somewhat difficult tor the average citizen to figure out how this is going to be accomplished under existing conditions, For is the prob * tem no*v confronting public officials and (jftftetE pf the law chaifF&Wth the duty m enforcing highway regulations: I On.CTfSS HH!-: (IH ITt W HX.lt •>._ ILTC*. I ir» in v intoxicating. By the simple expedient of passing a law Congress has changed the1 nature of alcohol and has made beer non intoxicating. That beinjf the case, how can a beer drinker become intoxicated? Cer tainly not, according to the decree of Con gress, by drinking beer. | But—suppose an intoxicated citizen found on the highways and hailed into court by an officer ot the law. The citizen may have all the symptoms of intoxication, but it is clear that said citizen cannot be intoxicated if he has been drinking beer— because Congress has said that beer is not intoxicating. Therefore, the logical defense of the citizen against the charge of driving a motor vehicle while under the influence of intoxicating liquor, would naturally be that he is not intoxicated—has been drink ing nothing but beer—and beer cannot and will not intoxicate. This state of affairs is gninj* to present a real problem to law officers and the courts. There are laws providing for the punishment of drunken drivers of motor vehicles, but how are they going to be en forced against intoxicated persons who cannot possibly be intoxicated, because they have been drinking nothing stronger than Congress* non-intoxicating beer? An other view of the matter is that many per sons who drink hard liquor will now enter pleas of beer drinking when they are hauled into court on the charge of driving while under the influence of intoxicants. Although they may have been drinking whisky, they will claim to have been drink ing only beer; and how is the court to de termine whether the alcoholic content of the law breaker is beer or whisky, without having a chemical analysis made of the citizen at the bar? Fn fact, that probably would fail to disclose the desired informa tion, as alcohol is alcohol; and a chemical analysts probably would show nothing more than that the aforesaid citizen was full of alcohol. Whisky will continue to intoxicate, be cause Congress has not changed the na ture Otf whisky by passing a law; but ail imbibe** will now drink beer, because Con gress HftsTinade beer non-intoxicating, and when a drunken driver, whether drunkeft on beer or whisky, is brought into court it is a certainty that he will enter the1 plea that lie has fr£en drinking beer alone and cannot possibly be intoxicated, because beer is not intoxicating. What are the courts going to do about it when they face the problem of the drunken drivers who are not intoxicated— can't be intoxicated, because Congress has made a harmless soft drink out of alcohol? Now that Hitler seems about to repudi ate reparations and the Versailles treaty, could you figure that swastika emblem as just a fancy form of the double-cross? House of Commons passes a bill that i fresh drinking water must be available I wherever meals are served. Better pass an amendment that it must be labeled, so Eng lishmen will know what it is. I The sun will be colder during the next few years, predicts the Smithsonian Insti > tute. Yes, and so will the look of bankers asked for loans on suburban allotments. I . Nobody need be surprised at the way President Roosevelt threw out the first bail to open the season at Washington. We've known ever since March -1th that he had plenty of speed. ! | NEWSPAPERS' OPINIONS J o — ——— c STILL FIGHTING The fact that l»eer will t>e sold soon in North ! Carolina, is now bcinir sold leiralfy in the neigh boring state of South Carolina, and that two states have already repealed the 18th Amendment en tirely, «loes not mean that the dry and temperance j forces have given up the fight. As was stated in Friday's Star, around -r>0 Shel by and Cleveland county churches will next Sunday hear a series of talks upon prohibition and temper ance. Tht> talks will be made by some of th'j lead ing ministers and lay speakers in this section, and the odds are that they will be heard by a big por tion "f the citizenship. Frankly, it might be said that the forces of temperance are merely reopen ing a tight they permitted to lag a dozen years ago when prohibition was first written into the law of 'he land. It was then, as Federal Judge E. Y. W»-bb said in a recent term of court here, tha11 the temperance forces made a mistake. The minute the whisky problem was turned <iver to the law • he dry forces ceased to carry <»n their campaign for temperance and their general educational pro gram as to the evils of strong drink. In that time fho wets have carried on their campaign of educa tion the other way and as a result the pendulum began swinging the other way. It is a fight, if it is to be kept up. which must be waged relentlessly, day in and day out, without ever stopping with the erroneous impressiop that the fight has been won. — Cleveland Star. LIQUOR AT THE WHEEL A woman arrested in a western city was charged with being drunk at the wheel of her car when it collided with another, the driver ft which suffered fatal injury. Three police officers swore that she was not drunk while four or five said she was drunk. The woman naturally agreed with her wit nesses that she was no' drunk but she admitted that shortly before the accident she had taken two drinks of liquor. In such cases the decision may rest upon how many drinks a person may take before he or she is drunk. It is a matter of capacity or resistance to the effects of alcohol. One drink, under certain circumstances, might floor a person while what is commonly known as an old soak might he able to walk a straight line or drive a car with a pin! un der his belt. Drunkenness at the wheel is one of the most vexing problems of motoring. One does not have to be drunk to have one's' steadiness as a driver affected by liquor. Excitement often brings a drunk I to his senses and while lie might have been drunk enough to be reckless and careless before a crash, he might, through fear or excitement, have sobered I up after it. Some day, perhaps, we may have to classify as drunks all drivers with liquored breath who are participants in accidents, since scientists say that a small amount of alcohol dulls the mind and pre vents quick thinking in case of accidents. Then th-* drivers will not admit drinking and some way t<> get at the facts must he devised. What will it be".' That's easy. A stomach-pump squad on city police forces to use the pump on drivers implicated in accidents dne to reckless driving. No patent on the plan. It's free for the aid of suffering humanity but we daresay after a driver, drunk or sober, has swallowed several feet of rubber hose he will ever afterward be a careful driver. Spartanburg, S. C., '• Herald. THF. LOAN SHARK Chicago i* making a drive on those conscience less pests who make their living by buying salaries ar.d lending money to those in need at illegal rates of interest. Eight of these men have been arrested, fherr places of business closed and they will face trial in Cook county courts. The Chicago Better Business Bureau commends this drive against what is commonly known as tho loan shark and believes that, if aggressively eon ducted, it will be a relief to wage and salary earners. If is remarkable that these men have been able to ply their trade so long with little interference. Men and women openly engage in the business and there are many victims yet, when called to answer indictments the defendants arc able to escape pun ishment. There is scarcely a city of any sirte in which the loan shark is not active. Once the borrower is en meshed in his web it most always means his ruin. There is no more despicable means of earning a livelihood than that of taking advantage of one's felfowman and grinding him between vthe mill stones of debt and irterest. These human spiders laugh at law and society sits by and permits their nefarious business to thrive.—Spartanburg, S.

Kudy Vallee, the man who made crooning an America|i pastime, doesn't intend to sine a note ill his next motion picture. The megaphone manipulator explained his viewpoint while do ing a specialty number for "In ter national House" at a New York studio recently. "Il isn't that I have any desire to play Hamlet," hec buckled, "hut I'm eonvinoed that the pub lic jrets enough of my sincintr over the air.
