( LETTERS TO THE EDITOR To the Editor of the TeU graph: Your fairness In permitting both sides to voice their sentiments on tlie House Rill No. 94. certainly is deserving of a consideration In keep ing with higher Ideals than an at tempt to commercialize the oppor tunity for any purpose other than a liberal one. A liberal criticism on the true performance of duty, show ing both beauties and faults is to be encouraged, as in that way appro ciation for the good can bo shown i and frequently a suggestion that i may tend to alter a bad one is pro- [ duced. . _ . One of the things to be regarded bv both sides is the fact that their opponents are Justly entitled to an expression of their honest coniic tions. The fact that two men dis agree does not necessarily imply that either of them is a bad man. If all the mechanical ingenuity of the universe wilt not make two clocks run exafctly the same, how can wo expect all of the millions of men to think alike. In one evening's issue ot your pa- j per some one signing "An Old Vet- | eran" takes advuntuge of the op portunity to give vent to his feel ho has never read the Old Blue laws, or the House Bill No. 94. , He condemns those who differ with him and makes at least 75 per cent, of the good people of this Common wealth ineligible to citizenship. He states that he is "literally astonish ed" from which we infer that he is a llterallst-adhering to the letter and exact word, so as a measure of insuring hint domestic 1 suggest that he does not read i Timothy 11-11, and for the protec tion o£ the morals of liis neghbor hood that he pass the entire book of Dcutoronomy. According to this man's ideas loss than 25 per cent, of the people are Christians, have neither respect for either man or God and unfit to be citizens. Knowing that the large majority have too much respect for the enlightened age in which they live, to even laugh at, let alone con sider this seriously, makes further comment unnecessary. His refer ences to "Wide Open Sundays." "Pa triots who love the nation," etc. er veul inconsistencies, either belying or disregarding the sincerity of his pupose. As a means of fairness to himself will "An Old Veteran," get a copy of both Blue Laws and Bill the benefit of "Young Americans." Then write another letter —One of . vindication. An Old Veteran is not the only | one and it is truly a most unfor-1 tunate condition, when men, whom tlie world looks too for moral guid ance, unconsciously, or unscrupu lously betray the very purpose of their mission, by showing any other than a spirit of fairness. The fol- j lowing are but a few examples: A minister of this city choses to call tlie sponsor of House Bill No. 94 "an unprincipled legislator." In all probability he does not know the address, let alone the reputation of tho accused. In any event he j should bear in mind that character j assassination is no longer consider- ; ed one of the line arts, or as an in strument for spiritual upbuilding work, as it lias long since been plac ed on the list of nonessentials. Another minister prints a church advertisement headed: "Remember the Sabbath Day and Keep It Holy." This reference was made to the Sev enth day, the original duy of rest and not the Sabbath which we ob serve in the commemoration of the Resurrection of Jesus, so why not be consistent and employ quotations front tlie wonderful teachings of Christ —"Man was not made for the Sabbath, but the Sabbath for man" —or "The Son of Man is not come to destroy life"—or any of the many others which are consistent with the issue. lie also refers to "A Wide Open Sunday," which is not in the least implied in the bill in ques tion. Is it no longer essential that there be a consistency between things relating to the same subject. What is wrong with tills ' minister j getting a copy of both the Blue I Laws and .the bill and read them to his congregation. In every other instance texts are supported with ! quotations, so if there be any holy j inspiration in the Blue Laws, it is only justice to employ them. Simply using anything that will fit in is j not a logical manner of argument. | We are also told by 150 ministers j of our city that the Blue Laws "are i necessary t to be supported by men who are not [ Christians because they want to be. but because there is a law that i make* them be. Are we to believe j that Goddn His infinite wisdom will be unable to discern between tlie true and the disguised. If that be true a quicker method, that of a hypodermic of a theological toxin What is to be our conception of omniseiency. omnipotency and omni- ; presence. No greater Injustice to God can be done than in attributing j to him the shortcomings of men. I Religion, when properly portray- ; ed is so beautiful as to make man want for it. It is the cornerstone > of civilization, because, when truly | pictured teaches ntan to lie civil unto j his fellow man and that is the i height of civilization. Certain kinds of Billy Sunday evangelism have the same relation to true religion that ! a bull fight has to modern farming; methods. 1 ' Tho Constitution of the United i States is -one of the grandest and noblest documents ever conceived i by men for the advancement and ; protection of a nation and is too ■ sacred an instrument to be found in tlie hands of those who attempt to disqualify others to a citizenship, simply because tbe.v express the in tegrity of their convictions. There arc a number of measures in this grand document worthy of con sideration at all times. No day is too good for a man to be happy and happiness can come alone through the things peculiar to his individual desire. To laugh on the Sabbath is not longer con sidered lis an evidence of "total de- I pravity," piety is no longer meas- I tired by degrees of sadness and the 'sickest looking people are no long- I er rt garded as th most righteous as a specific for indigestion has long I since been found. j Let us try to be fair with our selves and "when in doubt tell the I truth." We all too well know the bene fits that, come from fresh air. sun shine, exercise and laughter. The grass grows, tlie flowers bloom aid the birds sing on the Sabbath. Eve thing in nature Is Just as active then us on any other day and there is no law of nature that r iqtiires man to separate himself front his Indivi duality any portion of the week for the purpose of practicing grave-yard soliloquies. Intolerance makes the Sabbath a day of worthless reflections. Respectfully yours. E. T. CRITCHFIELD. lir\ FOREIGN MINISTER QUITS Basic.

To remove this barrier to the saleof liquors a presi dential proclamation stating that the demobilization of tbc army had been effected before that time would have to be issued. That, however, has nothing to do with the new amendment to the Constitution of ( the United States which forbids the manufacture and sale of distilled and brewed liquors in the United States. Tlie Swan Song Why the liquor interests and their representatives in Harrisburg de sire to have Pennsylvania vote against ratification When the issue has been settled has never been clearly defined. In the House of representatives many members vot ed against ratification when noth ing was at stake. Since that time some have expressed themselves as regretting that action. The Senate hearing to-morrow has been re quested and granted and is the swan song of the liquor activity in a big i sense, in the Pennsylvania J,egisla- I ture. Whether the ratification Senators ' will answer the argument of those ' opposed to ratification has not been stated; The "dry" senators are tak ing an indifferent stand when tlie hearing is mentioned and dismiss it as unimportant. They will likely have some representation present. It is hardly likely that the "dry" elements, who now possess con siderable strength here, will oppose the short term license bill whereby liquor dealers only pay license fees for the months they are actually permitted to do business this year. I The so-called business "fair jJlay" I feature of that bill lias appealed to many of the ratification legislators | —but they demand that liquor not attempt to dictate on legislative mat ters not affecting the liquor busi ness. If that is done the legisla tive league formed Inst week with Representative Robert L. Wallace of Lawrence county aff chairman, will fight back. It is figured that any trouble that liquor meets with in the session from now on will be of the liquor crowd's making. A public hearing will also be hsld on Tuesday in the roads committee of the House on the Ditlirich bill which reorganizes the entire auto mobile situation in Pennsylvania from the standpoint of the amount i of tax, size of trucks, chauffeurs re- 1 quirements and general matters re- j lating to motors. It has ulready j caused discussion in the automobile i world. In the judiciary special committee j of the House to-morrow afternoon' there will be a hearing on the oleo- ! margarine proposition based on the i McCurdy bill reducing the license to I sell oleomargarine. Grangers and agriculturists in general have asked j for. tli is hearing and the bill will be, attacked from many angles. high cost of living and "tlie pooin man's butter" will be the chief argil- ' nients for the bill. It Is always a red llag to the creamery interests, and grange organizations and this time they anticipate greater trouble 1 ilian usual in defeating the measure. 1 I Tlie Sinclair bill, which is not up j I for a hearing to-morrow but which , i also deals with the oleomargarine! j proposition wipes out the license! fees entirely. Both McCurdy and I Sinclair are experienced members and with the cost of commodities at present, a stronger figlit than in former years will be made for tlie lulls. The county members have been able to stem the sentiment for 1 oleomargarine. This time their job , is possibly a trifle harder but they ! claim to have the votes to upset !the calculations of McCurdy mnd , ; Sinclair, both of whom are san- | guine their'bills will pass. CHURCHILL WANTS RED INVITED AGAIN [Continued from First Page.] stacles to an immediate peace to- ! ! day, said there yere-many reasons why the treaty could not be signed at once, even though the league of Nations project was out of the way. Many issues that would form the basis of peace he said, was being carefully studied. Among them Is the disposition of many of the frag ments into which the former Aus trian empire has been divided, and another is the treatment to be ac corded Bulgaria. French Scent Danger The French people, he added, want peace, but they realize the danger of precipitate and unsatis factory solutions. He agreed with Premier Borden that there should be no unnecessary delay, but did not share his opinion thut time had been wasted at the conference. A full discussion of all questions must he permitted so that settlements which might- bo decided upon would bo unanimous. M. Pichon said there i was no obstacle to recognition being j extended the new Gernfan govern i ment, but ndded that the Germans [must be made to realize that they 'have been beaten —a fact, he said, !of which great numbers of them db not seem to be aware. Tlio new boundaries of Germany, he remark ed, will be up for consideration with- I in a few days.
