SIKL PLEDGES SELF TO PARK PLAN President' Initiates Broad Temperance Campaign ' Beer and Wine to Be Only ;, Alcoholic . Beverages Women Children Must Abstain Health Will Be Developed- j MEXICO CITT, May 15. (P A broad temperance campalBll, look ing to eventual drastic prohibition laws, hoB boon Initiated by Prosl. dent Emlllo I'ortca Oil. It l to be developed as quickly tm national conditions permltr taking perhapB live to ten yearn for realization. Expenses are to be borne by tlie government. The first step in tho campaign will be the formation next Monday of .a national committee on tem perance to bo headed by the hvc relary of public heallh and con taining representatives of all cluiwtx interested in public wel fare. This national committee will have charge of tho government's temperance nctlvltli's, having as its eventual object prohibition of ull alcoholic beverages except beer and wine, with public sale of these even to be denied to women and children. A probable first step of the committee will bo promulga tion of regulations permitting sale of hard liquors only In sealtftl bot tles to be consumed other thnn where purchased. , Usted as "hard" liquor are whlskoy, gin and ubslnthe. Pulque, the drink most popular among Mexico's poor, was not mentioned In the president's announcement. The government will make every effort to old In aduptlon of brew eries and distilleries to other pur suits. Other phnses of the cam paign Include compulsory clneHos In Mexican schools In which the evils of the drink hnblt will be taught, a system of reducing In number dancing halls and calm rets, and providing sports activities to devolop healthy physiques less likely, It Is claimed, to demand ulcohol ns a stimulant. It Is the president's contention that prohibition will ' be best achieved In Mexlca by nccustomlng the Mexican people to It 111 t lo by little. While his views on liquor have often been made known here tofore they have had the aspect , of a temperance, rather than prohi bition. Kor this reason his an nouncement lntn yesterday of a policy contemplating prohibition caused considerable surprise. . 'Father of Crater Lake' Feels End State Park System Is Hobby Now. J:: the feeling thut I wunted to live long enough to work for and see that state parks system .estab lished. With this idea In mind I wroto Kenator McNary that be cause of my weukness I felt that I could not actively serve much longer as United States commis sioner of Crater national park, hence I would be grateful If con gress could pass a bill to retire me nt full pay of 11600 a year. Ho wns very ngreeable to the proposition, ns have been nil otlrers with whom I have spoken about; It. "Such retirement would leave me free to devote my remaining j'ears. night and day to labor in Work for Crater Lakej' p- JX" and Cascade Reserve at Tlhlatth'"Ht ZZJl would be willing to deport this earth, feeling that I had accom nllshed that which the Creator Intended me to do.

Mr. Hteel, who 1h 7fi yunvn old Bo, hut reKreuea tnai i was it-u-inw mamma (Mm. Hteel) unpro vided for. ' , "The second time when I had been Kiven up, and felt that I had only three moments to live, the thought flushed through my mind that I waa leaving mamma unpro vided for no sir, 1 would not go, I would live to aell my card sys tem.

At present ho fools that ho has hut few more years of lifo ahead, hut feels that many more years of life would result to him, if he could take up some new hubby In the way of working night and day to PHtabllsh his state public parks Idea, which so far hits only been suggested by him In u newspaper way. He hopes the newspapers of tho state will nil line up in a campaign to such effect, that Governor Patterson will appoint a committee to have charge. Then that idea would bo safely launched until It was cur ried to completion, ho feels. " Mr. 8teel has ulways had tho Idea thut every person was put Into this world for some specific purpose. For Instance, his earthly mission was to seo that t'ruter luko national park camo Into being, then after that ho labored succeHHfully to have the Cascade forest reserve established, and completed after muny years, of tedious lubor his curd 'Index ofl place names of tho United Htatcs.J which ho has offered for sulo to congreNH.
