car accidents. On Tuesday morn-

crashed into a truck, turning the
bus completely upside down. For-

severe shaking up. On Wednes-
day evening, a truck load of sheen
driven by Lee Harrison was wreck-

was caused by the trailer coming
uncoupled from the cab, the
trailer turning on its side. Only
a slight damage was done to the

The grave has lost its hold on us,
And death must now retreat.
Our loved ones over yonder,

We cannot know their laughter
Nor hear their merry shout,
But we believe in Christ the Lord
And never suffer doubt.
Thus believing in His name
We know we soon shall stand
With all our loved one gone before
Upon the golden strand.
We’ll lift our voice in one glad song
“All praise to Christ our King.”
And when we join that mighty
throng
Both earth and sky shall ring
With glad hozannas we shall raise
Unto our conquering King,
The angel once we so have feared
Has lost his fearful sting.

Isn’t this the real problem of Beer
-and almost its only problem?
THERE ARE people, of course, who stead-
fastly and sincerely believe beer to be intox-
icating, or its use sinful, harmful, or a first
step toward use of “hard liquor.”
Just as sincerely we hold that the weight
of the evidence is overwhelmingly against
them...that beer is a mild, wholesome food
beverage...and that “there is nothing more
promising to combat the evil of too much
alcohol than the opportunity of drinking
good beer.”
No...it is not in beer itself, we believe, that
its gravest problem lies, but in those condi-
tions, undesirable to us all, which sometimes
surround its sale.
How should that problem be handled . ..
by brewers, by retailers, by consumers, and
by the public authorities? On its handling,
we believe, depends the ultimate success or
failure of the art and science of brewing,
with all its manifold contributions to human
pleasure and happiness and to the farm and
industrial welfare of this country.
* * *
In that belief, a short time ago the Brewers
Foundation was organized ... to align the
brewing industry with forces working for
the public good in this country.
Our underlying motive... to perpetuate
and promote our industry ... is of course
obvious. But equally obvious, we hope, is
the fact that our interests coincide with the
public interest.
Important progress has been made. Brewer-
members of the Foundation already represent
nearly half the production of beer and ale in
the United States; and these members are
pledged, individually and collectively, to the
Brewers Code, one significant clause of which
is as follows:
“We pledge our support to the duly con-
stituted authorities for the elimination of
anti-social conditions wherever they may
surround the sale of beer to the consumer.”
Being practical men, we promise no mira-.
cles. We cannot immediately or effectively
“police” the quarter-million points where
beer is sold (nor, to be fair, have we legal
authority in many cases to do so). Nor can
we, immediately, bring about full compliance
with the law among all retailers, nor honest
enforcement by all authorities.
But a beginning has been made...and we
do promise that you will see results from it.
* * *
How far we can go, and how soon, depends
very much on ourselves.. .but partly also
on you.
Public opinion, once aroused, can operate
to bring about honest enforcement of exist-
ing laws. Restriction of your patronage only
to legal, respectable retail outlets can and
will operate to raise retailing standards.
Public preference for the products of Foun-
dation members* will bear witness of your
approval both to members and to cooperat-
ing retailers, and will encourage them to
renewed efforts.
* * *
This is, therefore, at once a statement of our
objectives and an appeal for your support,
without which we must fall short of our high
hopes. We urgently invite your full and
sympat hetic cooperation.
