The Moderation League, seeking restriction on the sale of liquor, but opposed to bone dry prohibition, has on its board of directors leading professional and business men of the nation. These include Elhu Root, former secretary of state; Kermit Roosevelt, Rt. Rev. Charles Fiske, bishop of central New York; William N. Dyckman, president of the New York Bar Association; Newcomb Carlton, president of the Western Union Telegraph Company; William C. Redfield, former secretary of commerce; William B. Parsons, president of the board of trustees of Columbia university. The chairman of the board is Austen G. Fox, New York attorney. The report is based on a canvass of police departments in cities over 5000 on the number of arrests for drunkenness. Drunkenness during 1918 and 1919, when emergency war time restrictions on the sale of liquor were in effect, took a remarkable drop. The lowest level was reached just before prohibition went into effect in 1920. In succeeding years drunkenness has climbed steadily back to the 1914 level, according to a chart of statistics. Commenting on the statistics, the Moderation League says: "When we consider that drunkenness generally has already increased to the preprohibition level and that drunken drivers and drunken children have increased far above anything ever known before in this country, we cannot escape the conclusion that the Volstead act has utterly failed to do what it was intended to do; namely, promote temperance and sobriety." "We believe that a greater degree of temperance can be attained by a bone dry law which does not command the respect of a large part of the people." "We are also of the firm conviction," the statement adds, "that such a policy of wise restriction would have the incidental advantage of eliminating almost entirely the scandalous corruption and bribery of public officials, would stop the growth of the bootlegging as a class, would check disrespect for law, and would, in addition, produce a handsome national revenue." Startling figures are given showing the increase of drunkenness among "children" and also the increase in the number of arrests of intoxicated motor car drivers. Large Extensions By Edison Concern District Plans Call for $325,000 Expenditure Next Year "Three hundred twenty-five thousand dollars will be spent by the Southern California Edison Company for extensions and reinforcement of the electric distributing system in the Santa Ana district during 1926," said District Manager W. L. Delimiling today upon receipt of information from H. H. Ballard, executive vice-president and general manager of the company for 1926, which it is contemplated to expend in the Santa Ana district, explained the district manager. The Santa Ana district includes Santa Ana, Anaheim, Garden Grove, Orange, Tustin and the intervening territory. The business and population in this district shows a substantial increase which justifies this generous appropriation to keep pace with the additions which the company always makes to provide for present and future demands for service. In addition to the local appropriations for the 31 geographical districts in the 10 counties of Southern and Central California where the company renders usually worth-while, on merchandise that's in demand for this business will show patronage for twenty-six years of residents of Ames sacrifice of profits—giving to you desirable merchandise and get your share of savings.

Startling figures are given showing the increase of drunkenness among "children" and also the increase in the number of arrests of intoxicated motor car drivers. "To be exact," the league states, "motor vehicles in the United States increased from 1919 to 1924 only 132 per cent, whereas drunken drivers increased in the same period about 354 per cent of the average. The difference of 222 per cent is clearly attributable to the Volstead act." LEGION NOTES Members of the California posts of the American Legion are soon to have before them the plans of the organization for a state-wide campaign in the interest of the passage of a universal service bill by the national congress. The passage of a universal service bill by congress is to be one of the major activities of the Legion during the next year. Support of Senators Samuel M. Shortridge and Hiram W. Johnson and the eleven California members of the House of Representatives is to be sought by the Legion men for the bills which Senator Arthur Capper of Kansas and Representative Royal C. Johnson of South Dakota have framed to cover the subject of universal service for the man-power of the country in time of national emergency. Commander Alien Bixby ano State Adjutant James K. Fisk of the American Legion left San Francisco November 12, for national headquarters at Indianapolis, where they had been summoned to take part in the annual conference of department commanders and adjutants.

THE PUEBLOS' ELOQUENCE Consider the eloquence and argumentative methods of the Indians. Down in New Mexico men are using ways of the law to take away from the Pueblos some 30,000 acres of lands. There are statutes which have to do with squatters' claims and there are subterfuges which are calculated to define as a squatter one who settles on land which has been considered the home of the Indian. Had the Indians known all of the kinks of the law, they could have filed squatters' claims, but they did not know. Now they are faced with eviction and do not believe it is just.
