The California voters were stamped
ed with the fear that statewide prohi
bition would carry and, to prevent an
other attempt in this line soon, they
adopted an amendment prohibiting the
submission of the question Of statewide
prohibition at any time within the next
eightyears. This little game was also
undertaken in Colorado but it was not
a success.
