voiced by Charles Il. Wil.on. chair.
man Of the water committee Of the
Chamber Of Commerce. who declared
that municipal ownership is the only

Better Get a,Cover.
Mr.. Hobson concluded his speech
by declaringhe came with aspetftion
sanctioned by majority OF the
American people demanding arefer-
endum on The liquor question. The
first of the people for this referendum
was an earnest one, he asserted. and
men in public life had better realize
1t. Referring to Mr.. Underwood as
a reactionary, he added:
'Ic there Is a man on this floor
who is afraid of danger" he said,
he'd better get to cover in the next,
few years."
When the AIabaman had taken Ills
seat, Representative Bartholdt OF
Missouri suggested that Mr., Hobson
had packed the galleries with mrll.
titude Of his adherents and that he
(BartholdD could bring two mill.
lion Gdrman.Americans to Washing
ton for intimidation, but he did not
think It was healthy thing" to do
anything of that sort. He attacked
Mr.. Hobson's argument and said that
''sobriety and temperance are ldenti-
cal with prohibition, as Mr.. Hobsen
had said, but that prohibition lis an
attempt to make man sober by
law" i
"Tlle Creator, Himself, put temp
tation In the Garden OF Eden and it's
been here ever since" concluded Mr..
Barthold, after saying the man he
respected was the one who could re-
sist temptation, adding abolish
temptation, why, you'd have to abol-
ISL women!"
Spokesman for the Anti-saloon
League and the Womens Christian
Temperance Union urged the House
judiciary committee to favorably re-
port the Hobson resolution for pro-
hibition amendment. Representative
Hobson made the opening argument
Quilting, the purpose Of prohibition
lists to submit practical evidence Of
the devastation caused by the use Of
alcohol.
