President Harding Is committed to

the price of outstanding Liberty bonds.
Tempting Proposition
It Is a situntion making for n senrch
for aome new source of revenue tnxing
of which the country would not permit

the manufacture and ale of wine nnd

th soldiers' bonus would enlist many of

la tempting Politically it will require
mnch calculation to see whether the
support of the Midlers would offset the
loss of the extreme prohibitionist vote
The prohibition movement has re
ceded. This Is shown by the failure
to put through Congress tho radical
amendment to the Volstead act making
It more enforceable. And it now seems
certain that this amendment will fnll
unless the extreme search nnd seizure
provisions nre omitted
With them left out. the enforceanent
of the prohibition law will remain us
difficult ns it is now. The temporary
defeat of thc Volstead nmudiu"iit has
produced no effective protest So Jt is
enerally felt here that the prohibition
movement has passed its climax
Liquor Importation Grows
An argument for the liberalizing of
the Volstead act Is found in its un
enforceability. Statistics upon tne im
portation of wines nnd llqjiors are in
teresting. During the first seven
months of the yenr 111.502 gallons of
whisky and 700,000 gallons of sacra
mental wines in the wood and 70,000
cnics of bottled wines have been legally
Imported. Of the 111.502 gallons of
whisky, 51,400 gallons came in July
alone. A year neo only 0583 gallons
came In July, evidently ways are
being found to get nround the law for
bidding Importntlon.
