Seek Snap Judgment
Amendment Resolution

The liquor interests fearing the
rapid development of sentiment all
over the country in favor of the Pro-
hibition proposition and believing that
in these closing days of the present
session of Congress they can success
fully threaten and brighten a few
more than one-third of the present
House of Representatives, so as to
prevent favorable two-thirds' vote
which is necessary to pass the resolu-
ton, are now desperately trying to
force a vote in the House with many
members absent in their home dis
tricts, with the members of the wet
city districts ready and anxious to
kill the bill and with many Prohibi-
ton members of Congress menaced
by united liquor opposition to their
reelection this fall
By securing such snap judgment
the liquor interests believe they will
have better opportunity to defeat
the measure than by allowing it to
go over to the next session of Con-
gress.
The temperance forces feel that
they are able to handle their own prop
osition and congressman who have
been interested in giving the joint
resolution square deal resent the
idea of the liquor interests attempting
to take charge of this Prohibition
measure. What the temperance
forces want is to protect this bill
and get favorable action upon it at
the earliest possible moment. What
the liquor interests want is to kill the
measure by means fair or foul.
The liquor leaders are wise enough
to know that of the six states to vote
on Prohibition between now and De-
cember, five are probably going dry,
and they fully realize that the addi-
ton of these five states to the nine
now under Prohibition would have
tremendous moral effect throughout
the nation. and would unquestionably
have a wholesome influence on con-
gressional action. They prefer, there
fore, to get quick vote in Congress
before the campaigns in these several
states are over.
The public should know that after
spending hundreds of thousands of
dollars which the liquor interests have
spent during the past few months in
paying for the thousands of kilograms
and letters sent by employees of the
liquor interests and employees of
other related interests to congress
men urging the defeat of this bill,
these same interests would not be so
anxious to have quick vote on this
question unless there were some spe-
cial reason favorable to the liquor
