MONDAY, APRIL 22, 1935, Celebrity’s Child Is Handicapped by Fame, Says Barton By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON “The children just adore going o their father’s store,” gurgled voung Mrs. Brown. “Everybody \reats them so beautifully. The .lerks ecan't do enough for them. It is really thrilling.” That was one side ‘of the story \liss Clark at the ribbon counter put it like this: “Every time I ee those brats coming I see red. perfect hellions—you know what | mean. ‘They rip the store te pieces, dive behind counters and stick up the place like nobody’'s pusiness. 3 “Rirst stop is the eandy coun ter, and from then on ‘we mop and try to save our dresses and our jobs.

Jt all goes to show ~that the children of celebrities have less chance for mormal development than the others. They are in dan ger of becoming self-conscious and self-righteous, unless strictly guarded, and thag is fatal to nat ural and graceful growth. Don’t envy either the famous or their children.

The story that went the rounds on the boardwalk yesterday de picted@ Vallee as the artist whose patience was exhausted by a critie who- threw pennies on the stage of the steel pier. When the pen nies gave out, the heckler resort ed to harsh words, Then, thé story goes, Vallee de serted his orchestra, vaulted into the audjence, and planted a neat right uppercut on ‘the heckler's jaw. Vallee would neither confirm nor deny the story yesterday. He kept to his hotel, spurning the crowds on the boardwalk, until it was time to return to New York. ! There were no arrests and the heckler — whoever he was—didn’t leave his calling card. e S e TALMADGE FUTURE REMAINS POLITICAL QUESTION MARK (Continued From Page One) pounds and looks 40. There is little excess weight and only a slight graying at the temples. In his own words, Talmadge| “went intoc the woods” againsti Brown in 1526. He called his opponent the “king Bee” and charged principally that ‘SOO employes were on the pay roll in the commissioner's office, Talmadge carriea 140 of the 161 counties and went into office on a flood of votes. Twice he was re-elected. During his tenure he took con trol of the veterinary division's funds and was sentenced in the Bibb county superior ecourt to 12 months in jail, but the state su preme court reversed the sentence. ~ “Elect me governor and put me ‘where the courts can’t mandamus ‘me,” he exhorted the voters in a whirlwind campaign in 1932. They ‘did. He won in a field of 10 candi dates. . ‘He ousted the ™Public Service commission and the state highway ‘board, calling out the national guard to back him up in the latter ‘action. ¥l ~ [Last year he ran for re-election ‘asking for an “endorsement term.” Only thre counties were missing from the Talmadge column when the votes were counted. ~ 'The patronage fight which start ‘ed with his first campaign for| ‘commissioner of Agriculture con tinued with him in the governor's ~office.

Dr, Howard Kelly, of Johns Hopkins savs, “It's use is ‘ruinous to the kidneys, iiver, heari and smaller blood vessels and pro duces that commeoy fatality, high blood pressure”. Dr. Charles Mayo says: “You can get along with a wooden leg, but you can't get along with a wooden head. It is the brain that counts. But in order that your brain may be kept clear, you must keep your body fit and well. That cannot be done if one drinks liquor”. Bismark said, YGermany's beer gardens are more dangerous than the armies of France”. Such scientific and in disputable testimony can be mul tiflied indefinitely and ought to seéttle the attitude of government toward alcohol. Being a poisonous, narcotic, habit-forming drink, ‘peofl ple have no more right to its bev erage sale ‘than they have to mor phine. The day is at hand when civilized men must put liquor,§ opium and cocaine in the same category and recognize the respon- l sibility of government to protect society agaihst their ravages. : Repeal a Quadruple Failure | And we are not left to conjec ture as to the consequences of re peal. Conceding the lack of full en forcement, we kaow that what we | have is immeasurably better thani what the advocates of licensed liq- | uor now propose. Observation in other states and the lamp of ex perience show incontestibly that' repeal was hurt every good thing everywhere and has remedied no{ bad thing anywhere. Whatever | may be the degree of prohibition’s failure, the repeal of pr.:‘)ibitioni has been a quadruple failure. ' The following facts deserve thel congideration of every thoughtful man and woman., The wets cannot explain them anyway. Assault ‘them as they may, the file will net Ba dataas d by the rat’s teeth. The police records of 226 cities and towns, including practicaclly all the ‘leading ones, show an in crease of 26 per cent in arrests for drunkenness in 1934, the first year of national repeal, over 1933, Many single citles show an increase. of 50 per cent to 100 per cent. 'l’he‘ arrests of wemep drunks increued, 40 per cent. The total arests for drunkenness in these cities in 1934\ was 244 per cent above the first yvear of national prohibition (1920). The mounting arrests for crime re veal the same discreditable story of repeal. ‘Repeal Breeding Saloons There are now nearly four times | as many licensed alcoholic liquor AEL’S —M I CH Hurry Down Every Tuesday for Super- BARGAINSI = PR Girls’ Summer Frocks .19 Very Special! and very smart high grade dresses' All sizes from 1 to 16!

The wets joined in a mighty chorus that the saloon should mever return, but from widely distributed areas come re=- ports of saloons, taverns, cocktail rooms, tap rooms, and other new fashioned drinking and liquor sell ing places in operation, running -at all hours, resuming old alliances with gambling, gangsterism, pros titution, political corruption, erime in general, with yoOung girls for barmaids, with women frequently conspicuous among the patrons, The Chicago Daily News, a stout advocate of repeal, said on Janu ary 4, “In Chicago the pledges of the party '‘have been torp into shreds. The saloon is back in a form more infamously evil than ever hefore. Jt is again the ally of vice and corrupt politics. It is violating every regulation made for its behavior. It is dispensing boot leg liguor. It is selling at unlaw ful times. It is selling to minors. It is promoting gambling. It is trading for profit in every form of crookedness and indecency”. The repealists promised a pro gram that would promote temper ance, but the facts are incontesti ble that the volume of consump tion is rapidly increasing through out the nation, though the revenge from it is far less than its advo cates promised amb-no taxes have been relieved by it.¥ More places of sale, more ligquor, more advertis ing, more sales promotion, and more drinking never did promote temperance. - Liquor And Gasoline Make Ghastly Mixture In repeal states—and to some extent everywhere—the amount of automobile accidents and drunken drivers tells a ghastly tale. The National Safety ICouncili announ ces an increase of 13 per cent in motor accidents in 1934 over 1933, resulting in 36,000 deaths, and nearly one millioy injured in traf fic accidents, though gas sales went up only 5 per cent. The Trav ellers Insurance company of Hart. ford says there was an increase of 42 per cent in intoxicated drivers and 60 per cent of intoxicated pe destrians involved in motor acci dents in 1934 over 1933, and re cently automobile lability anur~‘ ance has heen increased, costing the people added millions. When the highways of the state are lined with liguor and beer shops as thick as filling stations — and there is mothing in the proposed law to prevent jt—=Georgia will pay a ghadtly price for the ignoble experiment of repeal. Repeal Breeding Bootleggers But hear the facts. Joseph H. Choate, federal administrator, says the ghastly total of illegal liquor is now probably greater than what it «legally .said. Attorney ~<3,emul| Cummings says the American peo ple are living in a fool’s paradise, if ‘they think repeal has solved ‘the liguor menace. The govern ment is spending more money now to protect the licensed sale and oollect. revenue than it ever did to enforce prohibition and the il-| licit sale goes on. The Macon Telegraph said on’ January 14 that “bootlegging and the underworld situation has 'not| been changed” by repeal; “the bulk| of the business in the so-called wet; states .is done by the same crowd as did it during the so-called pro hibition days.” The same journal said January 1, “The business is entirely out of econtrol both in dry states and wet states.” Secretary Morgenthau said on March 8 “that liguor smuggling along the coast is threatening a $30,000,000 loss of liguor revenue this year”. He also said, ‘“There are now thirty nine vessels known to the Coast Guard as rum runners hovering beyond the customs waters of the United States. They carry on their| trade almost with impunity’, | Assistant Attorney General John S, Hurley said on January 29, “Bootleggers with large plants are making products and putting them out under labels with counterfeit stamp tax seals and these prod ucts are finding their way into the state stores and dispensaries”. But this ought to be enough. Adulteration, imitation, counter feiting of labels and bootlegging go with the business. Poisoned liguors have lately killed several dozen people in New York. Pro hibition didn’t start it and its re peal will not stop it. The evi dence is abundant that all of it flourishes under license and that government control of liquor under license generally results in the control of governments by the red hand of liguor. Georgia can con trol it and we will. Good government cannot accepl the theory that the way to dedl with a troublesome evil is to leg alize it and go into partnership with it. The liguor problem will never be solved while the sale of liquor is legal, Its approval by government furnishes mo logical basis for education against it We do not believe that a govern ment should maintain education by .the proceeds of any business that can exist only by hurting childhood and degrading youth. Georgla cannot afford to educate her children by the revenue of de bauchery and there must be un compromising resistance of it The repeal of prohibition will open the floodgates to an orgy of liguor and lawlessness such as Georgia has not lately known, A muddy stream of pollution will pour out of any place where liquor Archer Chiffon ® Hose - 2 Pairs .50 Whenever we sell these lovely sheer chiffons at 2 pairs for 1.50 our customers flock down and stock up!
