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

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

Intended me to do.

, "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

I would live to aell my card sys

It seems hard to comprehend that
his IllnoHH has left him with Bin h
little rt'HlHtanee, to aecompuny his
alert mind und enKerneH to be of
public service.
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

"My work for Crater national
park is at an end, I feel," said
Mr, Hleel today. "My work for
the Cascade reserve Is also com
pleted and when congress puhsoh
