BIBLE THOUGHT FOlt TODAY
For Cod niveth to a man flint
and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinners be niveth travail,
to (lather and tc heap tin, that he may (jive to him that is
good before God. This aho is vanity and vexation of ipirit.
-Ecclcsinites 2:2G.
The Limit
While it is definitely declared a crime for the ordinary
person to take one drink of beer containing over one-half of
one percent alcohol, there is no statute defining how many
drinks a prohibition enforcement officer is expected to take.
Abe Weinberg who spent thousands of dollars of state funds
with Governor Pierce's approval in entertaining bootleggers
ard bawdy house inmates apparently had no limit at all, but
some dry officials do fix a limit. For instance 1'ercy Owen,
federal director of prohibition for Illinois, set out the follow
ing rule for his dry agents :
Do not become luloxicatcd. Do not become anywhere near Intox
icated. After taking two or three drinks of high-proof liquor an
agent should not take another drink until tlvo or seven hours have
elapsed.
The prohibition director for Maryland gives his agents
mcra latitude. He declares that the number of drinks
All depends on the tnan. One man mlRht be able to stand five or
even seven drinks without any Intermission, while another ought not
to drink at all.
Don Okie, former United States army captain and prohi
bition agent of California, asserts that as an undercover
agent
I found It necessary to consume on an average 50 drinks of lbiuor
dally. In two years the number of drinks I took to obtain evidence
totalled 30,500.
All of which leads us to hope that as the governor's under
cover iry agent in Oregon, it will not be necessary for former
stall prohibition npent Cleaver " to exceed this record in
securing evidence. Fifty drinks a day or 18,230 a year ought
to be enough for even a Tierce special agent, except perhaps
on extraordinary occasions.

For the Filibuster
Hell'n-Maria Dawes is on the wrong track in attempting to
form the senate rules so as to render a filibuster impossible
by adoption of a cloture rule. The only result would be to
make possible the passage of more laws, not necessarily
better laws. What the country
and there should therefore be more, not fewer filibusters.
As it is now any senator, if he has the physical endurance
to talk against time, or any group of senators similarly gifted,
can in the closing hours of a session, talk a measure to death,
for there is practically no limit on debate. This is a very
wise proceedure and has saved the country many needed
dollars its well ns some needless laws. The filibuster has
been on the whole beneficial. Why nbolish it?
Mr. Dawes places great emphasis upon the will of the
majority as a sacred thing, and would give the senate ma
jority full power to enact its purpose. But the majority of
the senato is in no sense the majority of the people.- The
senate is not and never has been a legislative body representa
tive of the people or two senators representing New York's
11,000,000,000 people would have more say than two senators
representing Nevada's 77,000 people. But they haven't.
The senato was intended to be appointed by legislatures to
tnbnce the popularly elected lower house.
The framers of the Constitution realized that pure major
ity rule would be fatal to a federal system of government
and that important legislation should be safeguarded by
requiring more than a mere senate majority. The senate
minority, as a rule, represents groups of states and it would
be unwise to use steam-roller methods upon them. Hence the
senate traditions are right in upholding rights of the
minority. '

Nick told me a lot of things that
evening at dinner. ll ubut hbt
luaiTlntje, and how rie had adored
hiM wife, but just couldn't make
enough money to make her happy,
and how her people had Interfered,
and finally hai persuaded her to
divorce him In Purls.
"Shs'a running around with a
wild crew over there now," he
said. "Sometimes I wonder what
will become of her, I guess well,
be kind to me. Nancy, won't you?
rvot;ot to stop thinking about her
and buckle down to work. And I
need you." . -
Sometime I think those three
words urn responsible for at least
half ih trouble women get into
in thld world. "I need ycu." What
woman can reaUt a man who aaya
l hem to her in just tle right tone
of voice?
He can make lova to her ever
lastingly and she can smile and
turn away. He can try to sweep
her off her feet, nnd ahe can a till
umile and murmur that she'll be
just a good friend to him and noth
ing more. But let htm tell htr
helplessly that he needs her and
i.he'11 break engagements with
eligible suitor, turn her back on
far more interesting men, neglect
her pet Pekingese and paun the
family silver In order to give him
the attention he craves.
I was like the rest. I wanted to
help Nick, no matter what I had
to sacrifice In order to do it.

'KrjJik says that h lives In a

you to fio to a concert with him

you."
I didn't want to go. of course.
JJut then, I might as well yield to
her once in a while, for the sake
of peace.
Krunk Haa-isaa want?d to ask
nbout Louiao too, and I had to
make up some more things about
her. It amused me to think of
what he'd have oald If he had

Fluffy little Italian rtaurant with
a man of whom he disapproved in
preference to going with him the
evening before.
