SWISS EXPERTS LEND AID
Leader Quoted as Saying That Old
Eurojxj Must Not Fall Into
"Error" Slado by America.
NEW YORK, Jan. 15. (Special.)
Warned by the fate of their confreres
in the United States, the brewers of
the German repu:ic are planning a
publicity r&mpaipti calculated to nip
In the bad the "brtne- dry" movement
In the Fatherland, according to a
report found In a recent issue of the
Abstlnenter Arbeiter, a German
mazarine devoted to carrying on
temperance propaganda among the
workers. The Abstlnenter Arbeiter
cays that a "favorable' gust of wind"
brought to Its desk a report of a
secret conference of the general com
mittee of the German Brewers' league
fceld in the Hotel Adlon, Berlin, on
October 14 last, at which the sub
ject of anti-prohibition propaganda
was discussed at length. i
Two Swiss experts. Dr. Kury of
r.asle and Dr. Neumann of Berne,
were said to have played a leading
part in the formulating of plans for
fighting the incipient German pro
hibition movement. Dr. Kury is
quoted as advising the organizing of
a solid national front in all Euro
pean countries through the uniting
of all the Industries connected with
the production an1 distribution of
etrong drink, and as saying that "we
must not say that we want to oppose
abstinence, but we must make the
public believe that we are only fight
ing against the abuses of abstinence."
In developing a broad plan for anti
prohibition agitation. Dr. Neumann ks
quoted as saying:
Propagnnda la Planned.
"It Is necessary to keep In Indirect
touch with the press, to keep them in
terested In all questions that are at
all connected with the brewing indus
try, and to do It in such a way as
to cover It with the mantel of science;
that is, to have it skillfully disguised.
We must either write our own articles
or try to have rejwrts along our lines
written by scientists connected with
alcohol capital. The articles must be
written for each Individual paper and
be adapted in tone to the character
of each paper. They must be colored
so that not even In the circles inter
ested will it he noticed that they
have been written In the interest of
the brewing Industry."
Another method of combating the
"drys" is to' consist in the publishing
of periodicals by the brewers contain
ing scientific articles presented in
popular language and apparently
representing the , standpoint of the
ultirnte consumer. Dr. Neuman is
quoted as going on to say:
"The newspaper articles must de
fend moderation. In order to hold our
ground in the hard struggle with the
opponents of alcohol, we must Insist
that we are In favor of enjoyment, but
are opposed to hard drinking. . The
only standpoint that can be main
tained now Is that of moderation.
Therefore. It will be wise and tactful
on our part if we join hands with the
apostles of temperance for this rea
son. We must also win science for
our alms. We must maintain our own
scientific Investigating departments
In order to be able to exercise influ
ence upon .the results."
"Krrtr" In America CKed.
After also recommending the use of
pamphlets, pictures, postcards, the
movies and plenty of statistics, as

well as questionnaires to be sent to
physicians, artists and sportsmen and
to be couched in such terms as to
bring the desired answers, the speaker
concluded: "The ban on alcohol in the
United States will hardly ever be lift
ed. Let us take care that we in old
Europe do not fall into the same
error."
The Berlin Frelheit of December 1
displayed on Its front page a lengthy
anti-alcohol article by Dr. s. Drucker,
based upon the alleged secret meeting
of the brewers' league and urging the
German workers to line up against
the brewers and drive out the "demon
rum." During the last few months
there have been indications that the
excesses of the war profiteers and the
unusually heavy consumption - of
strong drink in Germany are produc
ing a reaction decidedly unfavorable
to the liquor interests.. The German
prohibitionists say they are great If
encouraged by the example of the
United States.
DECK CLEARING FOR BILL
HECIiAMATIO-V TO BE TAKEN
VP IX 'SENATE NEXT WEEK.
McN'ary Informed Republican
Leaders Will Help In Speed
ing Consideration.
THE ORECrONHAM NEWS BUREAU,
Washington, D. C, Jan. 20. Senator
McNary was informed by republican
leaders in the. senate that the deck
would be cleared for his reclamation
bill by the latter part of next week
and that they were ready to help
him In speeding consideration of
the measure.
The fact developed today, however,
that the senate and house do not
agree exactly on the present measure,
which provides for the reclamation of
western lands by irrigation and
southern lands by drainage. Eastern
and New England senators told Sen
ator McNary that they were ready and
willing to support a bill to reclaim
by irrigation the arid lands of the
west where the federal government
has .a large interest, but that they
would never support a bill which' con
templated the reclamation by drain
age of millions of acres of southern
lands now in private hands and where
the federal governmeat has practical
ly no national forests, parks or mon
uments. Upon being told that the east was
opposed to the combination .of the
west and the south Senator McNary
communicated with Representative
Smith of Idaho, who introduced an
identical bill In the house. Represent
ative Smith said that it would not be
possible to pass a reclamation bill
through the house without the south
ern combination.
