Where Profit* Should Go
Out of the fog of argument and confusion of plans
aroused by the effort to draft efficient laws for liquor con-
trol after repeal comes one unassailable fact—whatever
system is devised it must prevent huge private profits.
Greed given free rein will wreck any control plan
that is adopted. Greed and the lawlessness that it engen-
dered swung the nation’s sentiment against prohibition.
K can ruin repeal even more easily.
Already in many states political strings are being
pulled by those who hope to reap a harvest of gold from
„ dealing in liquor. They are a menace comparable to the
bootlegging fraternity in the campaign to assure success
of repeal.
One of the fact* that wielded immense influence in
the fight for repeal was that huge revenue would accrue
to national and state governments from taxes on liquor.
Let the country’s legislators see to it that this is the
case. Let the millions in tax money and fair profits from
sales flow into the people’s treasuries instead of into the
pockets of greedy profiteers that the burdens may be
lifted from the thousands who are being taxed beyond
endurance.
Too Tough to Live
"He was so tough that even the gangs couldn’t stand
him.’*
This is the epitaph that might be written on the
tombstone of Verne Miller war hero-sheriff turned gang
killer.
Miller won a great reputation with the A. E. F. as one
of the quickest "on the draw’’ of all our soldiers a dead
shot and fearless. He came back to win acclaim as a
brave and capable sheriff.
But money ran through his fingers like water. He
stole county funds. He went to prison and came out to
start on the garish career that ended when foes beat him
to death in Detroit and threw his body in a ditch.
He slew without mercy wielding a machine gun as
An ordinary marksman handles a revolver. He shot down
four peace officers in the Kansas City massacre according
to the best police evidence and in his zeal killed even the
outlaw he had started out to rescue.
The moral to all this seems to be that even gangsters
can’t stand ’em too tough. Even they apparently tire of
killing someone just to see how the gun is working.
Ladie* and Prizefighter*
Society lifts an eyebrow as Mrs. Madeline Force Dick
is married to Enzo Fiermonte an Italian prizefighter.
Mrs. Dick happens to be the widow of John Jacob Astor
who stepped aside as the Titanic was sinking to permit his
then youthful bride to take her place with other women
and children in a lifeboat.
Discussion of the marriage makese much of the tragic
background of Fiermonte’s bride. To think say the dow-
agers that Madeline would do such a thing as marry a
prizefighter after Astor’R noble act in permitting her to
be saved while he himself went to certain death!
But then Mrs. Madeline Force Dick is a woman after
all. Enzo Fiermonte even though he be a prizefighter is
a man. It is the inalienable privilege of any woman to
marry any man. society’s eyebrow to the contrary notwith-
standing.

Christian Science
Lesson Subject_
“God the Preserver of Man” Is
the subject of the lesson-sermon
which will be read In all Churches
of Christ scientist on Sunday.
December 10.
The golden text is; “The eternaj
God is thy refuge and underneath
are the everlasting arms" (Dew
33 27.)
Among the citations which com-
prise the lesson-sermon is the fol-
lowing from the Bible; "Tne Loro
shall preserve thee from all evil:
He shall preserve thy soul" (Psalms
121:7.
The lesson sermon also Includes
the following passage from the
Christian Science textbook. “Science
and Health with Key to the Script-
ures" by Msry Baker Iddy: "The
prayer that reforms the sinner and
heals the sick is an absolute faith
that all things are possible to Goo.
a spiritual understanding of Him
an unselfed love. Prayer watching
and working combined with self-
immolation. are Oodl gracious
means for accomplishing whatever
has been successfully done for the
Christianization and health ot
mankind." (Pat* 1).
