This Nation needs no one-man
dictatorship. But it does need a
courageous Congress, representat
ive of the people and unafraid of
organized minorities. A bullied
and browbeaten Congress 'has
neither the right nor the ability
to run this country.
It took thirty years, at least, to’
put prohibition in the Constitution
of the United States and it may
take ten to get tt out again. But
it will be worth it. And it will
be a long, long while befpre this.
Nation forgets how nearly it sold
its freedom for a mess of speak
easies.
“James.” said the teacher, “have
you whispered today without per
mission”?”
“Only wunst,” said James.
“Leroy,” went on the teacher to
another boy, “should James have
said ‘wunst’ ’’
“No. ma’am;he should have said
‘twict.’ ”
Anyone receiving news of friend*

toy time, the Nugget would appre
ciate an opportunity of making
local mention of same.
