Prohibition
In Moderation
A Needed Reform
Maddox Names Possible
Remedies For Evils
Of Prohibition
By WILLIAM P. MADDOX
As was suggested in this column
Inst week, the prohibition issue em
phatically docs not take the form
of present restrictions versus the
saloon, and those who regard it ns
such have not taken (ho trouble to
inform themselves concerning the
various alternatives, some visionary
and some actually proving success
ful elsewhere, which are possible.
The condition which prompted the
prohibition amendment was gross
intemperance. Precisely- the same
situation plus the growth of public
hypocrisy inspires* those who suggest
that other systems will be more
likely to bring the desired results.
”i’he failure on the part of so-called
“drys” to grasp the essential point
that, the object of most of the so
called “wets” is to substitute real
temperance for the present (private
ly spoken) immoderate excesses in
bad alcohol has obscured the prohi
bition problem in a maze of vitupera
tion and counter-vituperation which
has not contributed to sound public
thinking. These so-called “wets”
want regulation, too, but sane and j
reasonable regulation, not extreme
prohibition.
Moderate Proposal
Most moderate of all the propos
als for reform is that congress
should define by law “intoxicating
liquors” in such a manner ns to per
mit the sale of light wines and beer.
This is apparently legally possible
within the eighteenth amendment
and would be the* easiest of all
schemes to execute. There are some
who believe that if people were per
mitted to drink beer and wine that
they would abjure the use of strong
per drinks and certainly the experi
ment would be worth trying. In
studying the figures for the nation
al consumption of alcohol between
the years 1907 and 1916 one finds
that tli^e vast proportion consisted
in beer, and the permission for the
sale of this drink in properly li
censed taverns and restaurants
might restore this moderation. The
chief objection is that prohibition
has corrupted the taste for lighter
drinks, since their bulk quantity
makes bootlegging more difficult
and the nation has taken to the use
of gin, a strong and noxious drink
formerly used only by southern
negroes. Nevertheless, the experi
ment would be worth while from all
standpoints.
States Must Decide
There is another school of thought,
not altogether inconsistent with any
of the proposals for proper control,
which insists that the states, rather
than the nation, should decide for
themselves what system of regula
tion they should adopt. There is
strong argument for this suggestion,
since it is obviously true that cer
r tain larger industrial centers of
population are notoriously more
vehemently opposed to prohibition
than -the country districts, and if
these communities were allowed to
substitute sane regulation for com
plete restriction, the improved pub
lic morale might strengthen the
respect for existing laws in other
states.
But state regulation must either
depend upon repeal of the present
constitutional amendment or else
upon its quiet unobservance through
some verbal subterfuge, such as
those by which the southern states :
have avoided the negro voting
amendment. This is obviously un
satisfactory and undesirable but
unless the entire nation will give

Caveivomen Prepare
Groat Aquatic Orgy
For Tuesday Night
With practice hours far more re
gular than those held by football
and baseball people this spring, the
Ar ’-ij n club has faithfully met
at . * k in the Woman’s build
ing t the past few weeks and
ha? g v worked out a pro
gram i demonstration next
Tuesday
This ran mown: The setting,
recording i information that has
just leaked out, will be cave-man
nish in character, barring nothing.
The costumes—will be in keeping.
And the swimming hole will remain
a la nature!, even to the fungus.
The character of the rest of the
decorations can better be described
as they take shape.
Suffice to say, all the necessary
instruction in canoeing and life
saving, old and new, and futuristic,
will be presented^ and the foolish
part of the performance is said to
be particularly stifling.
Because of the largo crowd ex
pected, as well as the legal risk in
volved in sketching the posters real
istically, the price of admission has
been reduced to twenty-five cents.
The show will start at eight, but
earlier arrival, according to reports
about seating capacity, will be*
highly commendable.

Primary Polls Here
Show Little Student
Political Enthusiasm
Politics off tlio campus hold little
interest for students judging from
the small number that turned out j
for the primaries yesterday. Pro- |
cinets 17 and 21 which included the
majority of the living organizations
reported that less than half the
registered total had voted w.lien the
polls closed at 8 o’clock last night.
Shortly before closing time at the
Patterson school building, headquart
ers for precinct 17, 21d ballots had
been cast out of the .11(1 names
registered in this district. Twenty
fraternities and sororities and all
the halls were included in this dis
trict. Officials stated that few of
the voters represented college stu
dents.
At precinct 21 the 107 votes cast
also showed less than half the num
ber registered. Nine fraternities
and sororities were represented in
this district.
Republicans were far in the ma*
joritv in these two districts. At the
Patterson school building 38 demo
cratic. votes offset 175 republican
ballots. When the polls closed in
the other district the democratic
party were favored by 43 ns com

Schumann-Heink Bids Oregon
Farewell at Close of Concert
By 8. M. and O. IT.
Madame Srhumann-IToink loft on
the train last night, but her voice,
her smile and her friendliness are
autographed on the memories of
those who heard and saw her on
the farewell night of her Golden
Jubilee tour.
“Goodbye—give my love and all
my best, wishes to Oregon,” were
the parting words of the interna
tionally beloved prima donna, as
die stood after her farewell concert
an the hot little back stage at Mc
Arthur Court.
Iler white hair was covered with
a scarf, green silk splashed with a
design of roses, and from beneath
this a bead of perspiration slowly
wound its way down her smiling
face. She had put on a gray coat
aver her sparkling white gown.
She could not see, for around her
were pressed numbers of those
whose eager hands held forth their
albums, cards and programs for her
to sign, and when she turned again
her way was blocked by baskets and
bouquets of gorgeous pink and yel
low flowers.
The crowd of college students and
children surged nearer till there was
scarcely room for her to stand.
“Oh, it is so hot,” she smilingly
remonstrated. “I like to be petted
—but get away a little.”
The crowd moved back a fraction
Df an inch, but their interest and
'curiosity were so great that she was
soon surrounded again.
A brown-eyed youngster of about
ten was the first to present, his
book for her signature.
“No, no, I will not sign, I can
not,” she protested with good
natured dismay as she looked at the,
increasing number. But whe^ the
boy looked up at her in disappoint
ment she suddenly took the small
blue book and scrawled a huge,
dashing “Schnmann-TTolnk” across
the page. Scores of books were
waved before her by hopeful hands,
and she signed a great number.
“Be careful, don’t, break the
flowers,” she warned suddenly ns
some of the crowd stepped too near
the tall, colorful baskets. “They
are for the hospitals here in town.
Will somebody be so kind as to see
that they get to the hospitals?” she
asked, with the trace of Austrian
accent that lingers in her voice.
A way was finally cleared for her
and she walked out into the big
hall. Her arm was around a small
boy’s neck (she seemed unable to
resist small boys) and she talked
and laughed with him while groups
of students followed her. Any one
of them would have changed his
sophistication and his knowledge
for a brief moment, in order that
he might liavo talked and laughed
with Madame.
On the curb outside of tho court
were crowds of students, waiting
for a last glimpse of her and wav
ing good-bye as she got into her car.

Sorority Expenses Are
No Higher Than Halls
Recent Survey Shows
Contrary to general opinion the
living expense for women in soror
ities is not higher than that of those
in dormitories and campus board
ing houses, according to a recent
survey made through the dean . of
wcmen’s office.
Comment is very often made in
regard to the extravagance of sor
orities, but the study reveals the fol
lowing regarding the expenses of
the eighteen sororities, in compari
son with dormitory residence and
private housing.
The average cost of room and
board in the campus boarding houses
is $37.50 and in the dormitory aver
ages about $35 a month. Of the
eighteen houses, there are four with
a charge of $40, two charge $39,
two-$38, three $37 and seven $35 a
month. This makes the average for
board and room alone $37.22. In
other words 10 houses are below the
campus average and eight range
from $1 to $3 above. It also shows
that seven of the sororities are as
low as the dormitory charges.
The additional expense per month
ir the sororities, including chapter
dues, social taxes, insurance, and
building fund plus room and board,
is ns follows: Two houses average
$48, one averages $40. three aver
age $45, three $44, five $43, two
$42 and two $40. This makes the
total expense average (of sorori
ties $43.77 per month.

Beautiful Singing
Well Received 1
NAOMI M. GRANT
Was it. only tlio merit of a won
derful voire that won every heart
in Sehuniann-TIeink’s audience? Or
was it admiration for the silver*
gowned and silver-haired prim A
donna who sang with intensity
that many a young artist envied?
No! It was tiie emotional message
that came directly, sincerely and
deeply from the heart of one soul,
biinging the natural responso of
thousands of others.
Scarcely had the audience, that
rose in ovation at her entry, seated
itself than the prolonged note of
the “Mitrano Aria” swelled and
diminished into the passionate and
deep notes of the ending. The fer
vent religious appeal of the “Before
the Crucifix” was envoked by the
depth of the contralto voice and
even the facial expression of the
singer. t
Turning first to one half of tho
andiencoi then the other the singer
interpreted tho yearning of ‘‘Mig
non” for her native land in soft
slurs and dramatic intensity, of
which the final notes and gesture
seemed tho apex.
Mood Quickly Changed
One of the most remarkable feat
ures of Madame Schumann-IIoink’s
personality is the rapidity with
which she can change from ono
mood to its paradox, for following
tho sad “Kennst Du Das Land”
she smiled merrily and sang another
German number, depicting the ar
dent passion of a young lover.
From tho sweet and confident in
terpretation of Beethoven’s ‘‘Iclx
Liebe Dieh” (‘‘I Love Thco”)
the audience was swept by tho
whirring sound of the wind and tho
tramp of horse’s feet in the piano
accompaniment into the tragic
‘‘Erl Konig. ” The horror of tho
child at. the first sight of tho ‘‘Erl
Konig,” the alluring softness of tho
enticing daughters, held tho audi
ence spell bound. But. in tho aband
on of the father’s despair and tho
upward inflection of that ono word
‘‘Tot.” Sc.humann-IIeink achieved
the dramatic climax of tho evon
li'g.
Only a few moments did she pause'
and then sang with ecstacy tho
tliemo of undying love in tho
Brahms number. Then again sho
plunged into tragedy in tho ‘‘Ory
rf Rachel.” Tho cry of ‘‘Death,
let me in” was sung with agon
ized entreaty, in slow bitterness,
in wailing reproach and reached
the climax of its intensity in tho
deelp notation of tho final call.
Then the prima donna smiled
again and sang tho lilting and
crooning ‘‘Pirate Dreams” that
ended in the heaven of contralto
range.
Before tho Madame sang tne
“Dawn in tlic Desert’’ slio paused
to en.joy the warmth of a Eugene
May evening with a few expressivo
gestures. Tt was in the second num
ber of this group that tho diva
proved that delicacy in a powerful
voice has a strong appeal so strong
ie. fact that she was applauded to
a second rendition. “Kerry Dance”
was contrast itself—the contrast of
youthful gaiety and mature long
ing. If anyone had a vestige of
drubt concerning the spiritual
youthfulness of tho singer it was
dispelled by the impetuous and ani
mated touch in “Down in tho Forr
lest. ’ ’
Then came the special requesf
numbers “Stille Nacht,” the Bol
ero and tho Rosary—to the first
tho audience listened reverently,
then laughed “with” not “at’*
her rhythmic exhilaration in thd
“Bolero,” then came tho “Rosary”
—and that we will not even at
tempt to describe. Words fail us.
Violinist Played Expressively
The assistant artist’s merit might
bo said to be a counterpoint of tho
prima donna’s. The phrasing of the
“Largo From tho New World Svm
pheny” and the “Old Refrain”
were as expressive as that of the
finest vocal artist singing the words
of theso familiar melodies. Flit
ting with a deft and light touch
over four strings and poising
dreamily with the bow she inter
preted Hubay’s “Butterfly.” But
when she muted the instrument and
played with relaxed wrist tho audi
ence were captivated by tho descrip
