180 "DEVIL DOGS"
HOME, WOUNDED
NEWPORT NTWR. Ya.. Jan. IT ?
On? hundred and Slghty marine?, vet
eraas of nearly every battle in which
American troops took part in France,
left here today for the Norfolk Navy
Yard. These marines arrived here
TMterday on the battleship Virginia.
All have been wounded.
The battleship Rhode Island, having
for a passenger Lieut. H. Gordon
Campbell, the famous American naval
aviation ace, arrived here within a
short time after the Virginia docked.
Mora than 2,000 men were aboard
these two battleships.
The seventh anti-aircraft unit,
known as the Margaret Wilson Bat
talion, composed largely of B&ltimo
reans, was aboard the Virginia.
Of the 2.000 men on these two bat
tlaahips few had seen action. A ma
jority of the men were preparing to
go into action when the armistice was
signed.

opposing Trotzky's insistence upon a
continuation of the reign of terror.

Here's What Artti-Saloon
League Will Do To Make
The Whole World Dry
j
?
World-wide prohibition is now the aim of the "drys,"|
and the resources of the powerful prohibition organizations
in this country, principally the Anti-Saloon Leagne of
America, will now be throWn into the fight for this end, it
was announced here today by Edwin C. Dinwiddie, legis
lative representative of the league, following the great ac
complishment of the "dry" forces yesterday in the com
pletion of the ratification of the national prohibition Con
stitutional amendment, providing for a ''dry" United
States in one year.
"We are now going to give all the assistance we can
in the fight for prohibition throughout the world," said
Dinwiddie.
Dry Speakers Will Go Abroad.
The Anti-Saloon League and other
prohibition organisation* will aid
prohibition organizations in other
countries to reorganise, and will
stimulate the organisation of rew
forcer where there are now none, to
give strength to the movement. Pro
hibition speakers will be sent to oth
er countries to enlist new followers,
and the vast ' amount of literature
and statistics, showing the advaat*
ages of prohibition, \Of the American
"drys" will be used in the other coun
tries. Also, the Anti-Saloon L<eague
will work in conjunction with inter
national prohibition organizations,
such as the International Order of
Good Templars, the largest Interna
tional "dry" body in the world.
The American prohibition forces
will not conduct campaigns In other |
countries on their own Initiative, but
will confine their activities to ren
dering "assistance" to the local forces,
thus preventing International compli
cations.
The Anti-Saloon League will also
aid in the passage of legislation to
enforce the new law when it goes
Into effect and will help in the work
of enforcement, Dinwiddle said.
The enforcement of national pro
hibition will probably rest with the
Internal Revenue Bureau of the
Treasury Department. The bill to
make the amendment operative will
Swift & Company's
1918 Earnings
How They Affected You
\
During the twelve months ended Nov. 2,
1918 (its fiscal year), Swift & Company
transacted the largest volume of business on
the smallest margin of profit in its history.
Profits of the meat business?under regulations of
the United States Food Administration?were limited
to a maximum of 9 per cent on capital employed but
not to exceed 2 Yz cents per dollar of sales.
Swift & Company in the regulated departments
earned 7.57 per cent on capital employed and 2.04 cents
per dollar of sales, out of which had to be paid interest
on borrowed money and taxes. Here is how these
earnings affect you.
Live-Stock Raiser?
Swift & Company killed 14,948,000 head
of livestock, which weighed alive,
4,971,500,000 pounds.
Swift & Company made a profit of only a
fraction of a cent per pound liveweight
Consumer?
The sales of our meat departments were
4,012,579,000 pounds on which our earn
ings were less than Vi cent per pound.
The per capita consumption of meat in the United
States is given as 170 pounds. If a consumer purchased
only Swift & Company's products, he would contribute
only about 78 cents a year, or 1 Yz cents a week as
profit to the company

j alao probably be drawn up by the
bureau.
To Fix Heavy PeaaltlH.
Internal Revenue Commissioner
Roper will face one of the most dif
ficult tasks in the world should the
work of enforcing the new law de
volve upon that bureau. It was point
ed out. Heavy fines and imprison
ment penalties for importation, man
ufacture by Illicit stills or otherwise
of alcoholic beverages, transporta
tion, sale, gift, or any other dispo
sition of such beverages must be
provided and carried out.
"I have not carefully planned the
work of administering prohibition,
and do not know what we shall
need," said Commissioner Roper to
day. "We do not know under what
kind of an organisation we shall
act, the number or character of men
we shall need, or where they will be
needed."
The new law does not interfere
wMth the manufacture and distribu
tion of alcoholic liquor for legitimate
scientific, pharmaceutical, and sacra
mental purposes, which will doubt
less be provided for in careful rules
and regulations which Congress will
authorise. Dinwiddle pointed out.
And while distillers are prepared to
wage a $1,000,000,000 fight to prevent
the operation of the law, have ap
pointed a committee to carry on ;i\e
fight, and have announced, througn
their chief of counsel, Levy Mayer,
that twenty-two States have consti
tutions requiring a referendum vote
of citisens to ratify a constitutional
amendment, and intend to carry tho
fight into the courts on the ground
that this provision of the State con
stitutions was violated in the ratifica
tion of the amendment, prohibitionist ;
here are confident that all efforts to
sidetrack the operation of the law
will be unsuccessful.
Calls Amendment VaHd.
"Article 0 of the Constitution says
that an amendment shall be valid to
all intents and purposes, as part of
this Constitution, when ratified by the
legislatures of three-fourths of the
several States," said Dinwiddie. "State
constitutional amendments providing
for initiative and referendum, and
similar State laws, do not control in
matters arising under the Constitu
tion of the United States, and laws in
pursuance thereof, and. therefore, the
ratification is complete when the
legislature has acted and does not de
pend upon any subsequent action by
the voters of the States. I do not
hesitate to believe that the courts will
hold that no State law, whether statu
tory or organic, can change the plain
meaning of the Federal Constitution,
which is the supVeme law of tlie
land."
Denial was also made by Dinwiddie
of the statement of State Department
officials that the amendment will be
come effective one year from the date
of a proclamation by the Secretary of
State announcing that the amend
ment has been ratified by the re
quired number of 8tates. Only four
teen of the thirty-six States that have
ratified have notified the Secretary of
State officially of their action, and ft
is held in some quarters that delay in
such notification will equally delay
the date on which the amendment be
comes operative.
Under the Constitution, however,
according to Dinwiddie, an amend
ment becomes valid as part of the
Constitution when it is ratified by the
legislatures of three-fourths of the
States, and that, therefore, the prohi
bition amendment became part of the
Constitution yesterday, when this ac
tion was completed, and becomes op
erative one year from yesterday.
"The result of yesterday is the cul
mination of generations of effort in
favor of temperance, total abstinence
and prohibition by individuals and
organizations throughout the coun
try." Dinwiddie said.
"The first suggestion of a national
prohibition amendment* of which
there is any record was made in ?
Grand I^odge of Good Templars about
forty-six years ago, and the first joint
resolution of Congress proposing to
submit such an amendment to the
States was introduced in the House
of Representatives, December 27, 1876,
by Henry W. Blair, of New Hamp
shire, who is still living In Washing
ton," he poinied out.
450 MILLIONS IN REVENUE
IMPOSED ON ALL DRINKS
Revenues aggregating 1450,000,000
are Imposed on beverages in the war
revenue bill, agreed on by the Senate
and House.
Conferees on the bill cast their vote
Just before word was received that
Nebraska, the thirty-sixth State, had
ratified the dry amendment. A tax
of $tf.40 will be collected on each gal
lon of distilled beverages. Oil ea?'h
barrel of beer a tax of $6 will be
made. Another Senate amendment
calls for a tax of 1 cent on each 10
ccnts paid for ice cream, soda water,
and other such refreshments. This, it
is estimated, will raise $37,000,000.
