Makes Some Denials Deaths from alcohol had been reduced, he said, from hi to 2.8 per 100,000 population, deaths from cir rhosis of the liver from 12J to 7.8 per 100,000 of population and deaths from bright's disease from 105J to 81.5 per 100,000 of population.

He arrived at his final figures. he said, by basing his calculations on a total population of 100,000,000. The estimate of SO percent of cases of bright's disease being due to liquor he took from the senate prohibition investigation of several years ago. Callahan denied that prohibition was identified only with protestantism. Once, he said, the charge was made and is still heard occasionally, that "prohibition was protestantism and purposely planned to interfere with Catholic services by ultimately making it impossible to.

offer up the sacraments of the mass." He declared that "nothing could have been further from the truth" and that such a charge was dearly "an Instance of using religious prejudice for material purposes." "Whisky Besorrectlon" Callahan submitted a letter from Monslgnor M. E. Foley ot Baltimore In which the move of the antl prohlbltlon group for repeal of scribed as aeylval of the whisky insurrection or its on a "larger and more dangerous basis." Monslgnor Foley's letter said in part: "We hear a lot of rot about the bringing back of light wines and beer as the panacea for the evils laid at the door of prohibition and as the great European promoter of temperance.

"We are now having on a larger and more dangerous basis, the revival of the "whisky insurrection' of 1794.

TAflLAC FREES JOHN BURKHARDT OF STOMACH TROUBLES Flat en lack, tuner Medicine Puts Him Back en Jew In a few day quleker than you ever thought possible that uper medicine Teniae starts to prove its merit And amasing though it may seem, the more stubborn and unyielding the case may be, the more remarkable is the work that Teniae does in straightening; out weak disordered stomachs. It's a real medicine formulated according to modern medical science thatVhynot iTiBt a "patent medicine" that makes a lot or. ridiculous claims to cure everything.

Teniae was prepared for the epecifle purpose of strengthening the ailing organs of digestion, and because every ingredient in it is designed for helping the good work along, it has won easy vie tories where everything else has failed. And remember this, when stomach troubles are ended you'll be absolutely amazed at the way bowel troubles, constipation, dis ciness, hesdsches, ana even rheumatism ususlly disappear "completely. Teniae haa brought glorious new health to hundreds right here in this town. Among the recent eases is Mr. John Burkhardt who says: "I was flat on my back when I started taking Teniae.

SPRINGFIELD LEADER YouandYour Neiwspaper Day to Day With the Editor' HE LEADER trust its "dry" friends all observed yesterday that "dry" testimony before the house judiciary committee naming the great Henry Ford and Thomas Edison as ardent "drys" was given elaborate play; prominence equaling or surpassing the play given the testimony of the "weta" on days preceding. Which simply shows once more that The Leader publishes the news as it happens without passion or prejudice. And which might also indicate to thoughtful readers that it is not fair to judge a newspaper's editorial policy by the breaks of the news.

For The Leader reports fully, and with whatever prominence it deserves purely as "news," anything that occurs. But in its news columns it carefully avoids any expression jpfjpinionsthere js a whole editorial page reserved for that. Last week "wet" arguments were given con spicuous prominence not because The Leader is wet, but because those were the arguments being presented to the judiciary committee; those were th arguments that were news. 1. Now the drys have their turn and are given equally conspicuous and generous space in the news accounts.

Thus both sides are given complete and impartial reports and if the result is "wet" one time, it is "dry" the next; so that by consistently following the news as recorded in your Leader you will find that, day in and day out, a very fair balance is maintained. ANOTHER story from Washington yesterday that was of unique interest to Springfield and reported only in The Leader told of Dewey Short's maiden speech on the floor of the house; and a speech of much importance, too, since it resulted successfully In including Missouri in the list of gtates to benefit from a $7,000,000 appropriation for loans to farmers ruined by floods. 1 Although actually Dewey Short's district does not include Springfield, folk here think of him very much as a "hometown boy." His home is in Galena, and it was a district south of here that elected Rim to congress but he is probably 'more popular' in SpringfieldJhan any mother, of thestate's national legislators. His district extends the length of the state, to the Illinois Kentucky line; and it is his constituents in the extreme east end of the district, along the Mississippi river, who will benefit directly by his striking success in his first aggressive congressional appearance. SPEAKING of "scoops," that was a right interest ing one The Leader had yesterday about plans for immediate construction of a splendid ath letic field and track at the State Teachers, college to be followed by the erection of a stadium.

Regardless of how things maybe should be, tak a ing them the way they are today nothing adds more, to the prestige of a college than outstanding athletic facilities, and this project is one of outstanding im portance both to the college and to Springfield since the two are so closely related that it is lmpos sible to separate their interests, and whatever fr rectly affects one very intimately affects the other also. FOR many days, quite heated arguments have raged over; just when it was that the trees were cut on the Public Square and since your Leader is nothing if not helpful, it undertook to set tie the argument. You will find the correct answer reported in an interview with the "Old Settler" in your Leader today. If, however, "Old Settler's" ex planation fails to completely satisfy you, just let The Leader know and things will be done about things. mean, is Jf iurthejB informa tion on the subject, or know of any other old settlers who have, The Leader will be glad to have it and to report it.

This is a matter which should be cleared up, once and for all, and the authentic information, on record to Bave future generations from any doubt on the subject. Let's get it settled right now. If you have any changes or additions to make to "Old Settler's" account speak up or forever hold your peacel MANY a newspaper editor has longed to tell eminent Visitors who "high hat" his reporters, exactly what he thinks of them but it remained for fiery Gene Howe, of the Amarillo News Globe, to do it Most editors have more self control, courtesy, good nature, or whatever it is it takes to restrain one's more violent emotions within the bounds of reasonable good taste. Be that as it may young Mr. Howe called the eminent E.

H. Sothern toed high hatter," as you will find recorded in your Leader today. And Mr. Sothern retorted that his toes are not pink, and that it was the "worst thing that has ever been said about me." In that case, Mr. Sothern should feel lucky.

The attack came about because Mr. Sothern had refused to grant an interview to Mr. Howe's paper. Mr. Sothren explained that he had been fatigued when he arrived in Amarillo.

Leader folk smiled as they read the absurd and somewhat hilarious story. There are ways and ways of going about things and Leader reporters have been refused interviews by cplehritiea, ton hiir. that hasn't caused them to lose their tempers and miss their stories. There was the pretty whose "highest" refusal blonde Marion Talley, tn eral attitude of supercilious superiority while here to sing, provided an excellent story. And in all fairness it may be added that when she returned, after her retirement, simply in a personal sight, 'seeing tour, she was, natural and courteous in re cei ving and talking to a Leader reporter.

lately, there was Geraldirie Farrar whose excuse for refusing to see reporters was virtually the same Sothern gave at Amarillo: that she was fatigued by travel, and must conserve all her vitality for her performance. This explanation Vas made so sincerely and so graciously that it caused tio resentmentand a satisfactory "personality" story about Miss Farrar was secured from her secretary. Which is all a part of the rather amusing way things are..
