Last year the people drank two
billion gallons OF liquor, paying there

four billion dollars in economic waste,
receiving in return poverty, crime and
death.
Taft. Wilson. Roosevelt and their
parties say that the liquor problem
should be kept out OF politics because
it is a moral question. That would
have kept the slavery question out
That problem required a political party
for its solution A moral question in
vOlving the physical, mental. moral and
spiritual welfare Of the nation as well
as its material prosperity is necessarily
a political problem of the highest order.
To deny that the liquor problem is a

Washington Is noted for its society

foreign dignitaries and for the thick fog

the officials from seeing what is going

climate has been the means of producing
hundreds Of political vacancies and thus
encouraging rotation in office.
