There has been a lot of the

It ig an ancient belief that
the woman is the bargain-
hunter of the family and that
man must be dragged reluc-
tantly, if at all, to where goods
can be purchased cheaply.
If that is true, the man of
the family must be having a
good time now, for there is
very little else but bargains,
at prices unheard of a few
years ago.
Those prices won’t be with
us much longer, economic law
doesn’t allow “distress” sales
to go on forever. Everything
from shirts to cement is going
to cost more very soon, as
higher price and wage levels
will be on us before we know
it.
It's about the last chance to

are that you, the reader of

in order to save. But you had
better start your building and
repair work now if you don’t
want to dig deep into your
pockets in the near future.
Providing jobs and purchas-

Temperance, Prohibition;
or What Have You?
'--------- •
Those who are old enough to
remember the OLD DAYS of
intemperance, the saloons and
their debauchery of men and
women, and politics, too, are
in a better position to foresee
the evils which lay just ahead
of us when the liquor interests,
emboldened by a heavy vote
against the retention of the
Eighteenth Amendment in the
Constitution, get wild and wool-
ly and begin plying their trade
in the same old way, or with
added frills and thrills hereto-
fore unknown.
It is a trucism that “if you
will give a calf rope enough it
will hang itself” and those who
remember the old days know
this to be true. The liquor in
terest would not obey law and
i t would prostitute power
whenever it saw even half a
chance. The folks in power in
the dry ranks were almost as
bad when they were given the
Amendment and they seeming-
ly then expected the law to en-
force itself. Let anyone ques-
tion the wisdom of any move
they made and he or she was
listed as an enemy, as a WET,
and they must not be consid-
ered in the counsels of the
ELECT. The editor of this
paper was in this category and
seeing the folly of the acts of
the self constituted leaders
made caustic comments on the
final results of these actions.
We could see, and often told
thru our columns, what would
be the result of the laws they
insisted i n foisting on the
American people. The threats
the drys were continually mak-
ing to political parties was but
one of the many blunders com-
mitted. The $3 prescription
for liquor for medicinal pur-
poses was another. The con-
tinual prosecution of little
folks for minor offences while
the BIG Boys went free was
another. W e recall that in
this county some mighty ex-
MILK, BLOOD AND IRON
rrnHERE is nothing milk and
I watery about the article
x “Evaporated Milk Around the
■World” by Charles Dillon and
Frank E. Rice in a recent issue
of “Hygeia” published by the
American Medical Association. On
the contrary, it is a blood and
iron epic of the far away places
to which these bold cans of milk
travel and of all the good that
they do when they get there.
“Under Polar ice,” the article
begins, “in a submarine, while the
world held its breath . . . into the
'green hell’ of Africa ... up pre-
carious trails to mesa-top Indian
villages . . . across the northern
lakes where the moose swims . . .
into the Gobi Desert with hunters
of dinosaur eggs . . . and to many
more remote and adventurous
places, evaporated mill: has been
carried.”
It then refers to a previous ar’i-
cle giving the history of evapo-
rated milk from the time of its in-
vention till it grew to a consump-
tion of 1.4<K),uo0,000 pounds in
the United States alone in 1931,
describes the various forms in
which r:-ilk is preserved, and
points out that evaporated milk
is the whole milk most practical
for the largest number of pur-
poses.
In Arctic Climes
“Evaporated Milk,” it continues,
“has had exciting journeys to re-
'ons where zero is considered
warm. The Byrd Antarctic Ex-
pedition carried it as a milk
supply . . . Part of the ten tons of
food, chosen under the direction
of Dr. Lafayette B. Mendel of
Yale University and carried by
Sir Hubert Wilkins’ polar diving
submarine ‘Nautilus,’ consisted of
a liberal supply of evaporated
milk . . . Not so long ago some
special work was done in Labra-
dor by a nutritionist who was en-
dcr.voring to improve the nutri-
tional status of the people in that
forbidding and inaccessible re-
gion ... A school lunch project
was started. Evaporated milk was
used as the basis in cream soups
and cocoa. . . . Some children
gained six pounds the first week.
In Torrid Zones
“In sharp contrast to the con-
ditions confronting the cook at
Li Lib- America and the nutrition-
ist in Labrador are those de-
scribed by Joseph Schmedding,
foreign upresemtative of a com-
\vj:\y v.’l ich handles a hundred
kinds of foods. 'I was never more
impressed’ he says, ‘with the tre-
mendous service rendered and the
'mormons responsibilities should-
ered by the canning industries
than during a stay of nearly two
years in Liberia on the West
<> -it of Africa. Milk is the most
important of the canned foods
sent to tropical countries, since
there is no local supply of milk
safe to drink. In Liberia, evapo-
rated milk is an absolute necas*-
sity . .
“Recently a home economist,
visited the reservations in. New
Mexico and Arizona. In a trans-
continental air liner on the way
this traveler had been served
evaporated milk. She later found
this milk a piece de insistence in
the diet of the native population.
. . . In nearby Mexico the same
thing is true.
Throughout the Orient
“The public health nurses of the-
Near East Foundation, are using
evaporated milk in connection
with their supplementary feeding,
school lunches and antitubereu-
losis campaigns in Greece, Bul-
garia and Syria . . . Throughout
the Far East the use of evapo-
rated milk is spreading from year
to year . . . Mothers among the
aborigines, such as the Igorot
tribe in Northern Luzon, seem
almost instinctively to understand
and to appreciate the strength
giving properties of the fluid in-
the familiar cans ... It has been
observed that the Chinese con-
sider evaporated milk of such
vuluo that they sometimes include
it. among gifts offered on impor-
tant occasions.
“Evaporated milk plays at pres-
ent a vast role in the unemploy-
ment relief work throughout the
United States . . . The United
States has the largest per capita
consumption of evaporated milk
in the world.”*
pensjve outfits were captured
but the folk# taken in connec-
tion therewith were financially
urtable to handle such tilings.
No folks who were most likely
responsible for these big out-
fits were taken or prosecuted.
Such things as this get very
tiresome to liberty loving peo-
ple who want to see fair play
and real equality before the law
and before they would continue
to put up with it they would re-
move from the law books the
law- which enabled it to be
done. There is a limit to pa-
tience.
Take for example that case
reported from San Angelo
regimes is the knowledge that,
-even in matters so provocative
of radical thought as prohibi-
tion, there is, after all, a mid-
dle road. True temperance is
possible neither in an era
which produces the saloon nor
in one which produces the
racketeer. Wets and drys alike
should now unite in a dual
program to control the liquor
traffic and to promote temper-
ance by moral suasion rather
than governmental decree.”

sale to the consumer, but woe
be it to the fellow who pur-
chased his supplies from some
other dispensary and tried to
dispose of it in the territory
over which they were supposed
to enforce the law. Things
like this is what is responsible
for the feeling in Texas today
and you need not be surprised
if Texas repudiates and Amend-
ment, votes for beer, and takes
other steps to see that it is
handled by those licensed by
the government to do so, and
is not handled by those whom
we elevate to office thug plac-
ing in their coffers the funds
collected for immunity from

In this connection it is inter-
esting to read some comments
made by Dale Miller and print-
ed in The Texas Weekly in its
issue of July 29' under the cap-
tion “Judge for Yourself” and
here reprinted. We realize, as
does Mr. Miller, that intemper-
ance by both the Wets and the
Drys brot about the several
conditions enumerated, but
when the time comes that Wets
and Drys alike unite on a dual
program to control the liquor
traffic—Well look up in Holy
Writ what it says abont the
Lion and the Lamb lying down
together. Here is what Mr.
Miller says:
“I can sympathize with those
defenders of the Eighteenth
Amendment who feel that they
are waging a noble crusade for
the preservation of temper-
ance; but honestly, temperance

an increase of 11 per cent.
Shipments of cattle for the
entire period increased 4 per
cent, calves 31 per cent, hogs
more than 100 per cent, while
sheep decreased 14 per cent.
“Shipments of sheep to the
Ft. Worth market were only
about 40 per cent as large as
in June last year, while hog
shipments to this market from
Texas points were almost three
times as great as those a year
ago,” the Bureau’s report said.
“Normally, shipments of
sheep to Ft. Worth during the
spring months greatly exceed
those to out of State points;
while in the fall, the reverse is
true. During June this year,
however, shipments to out of
State points were comparative-
ly close to those to Ft Worth
and were a little larger than a
year ago. A marked increase
occurred in shipments of sheep
to Chicago while an equally
sharp decline occured in ship-
ments to Kansas City and Okla-

A law is enforceable only so
•long as it is supported by pub-
lic opinion, and the mistake
which brought about the pass-
age of the Eighteenth Amend-
ment was the failure to fore-
see that it might not always
have this support. Had the
amendment avoided the word
“prohibited” and substituted
“Congress shall have the pow-
er to prohibit,” the matter
would have remained in the
hands of the people where it
belonged, and the amendment
would never have been repeal-
ed. Laws affecting personal
behavior should certainly be
as elastic as personal behavior
itself is, and so widely do mor-
al standards of succeeding
generations differ that it is im-
possible to impose the stand-
ards of one generation on all
others to follow.

iments with the liquor problem
is a bitter lesson in the folly of
