CONGRESS WOULD

Amendment To People,
Says Union

OF late il has become quite fashion
able 70 dispose of various questions by
putting them up TO the voters, through
Z supposed waving of responsibility
by legislative bodies. On this theory
the Anti-Saloon League is advocating
the plan 10 obtain national prohibition
through an amendment 10 the Federal
Constitution. The league is at pains
TO explain that members OF congress
are not to be asked 10 declare them
selves in favor Of national prohibition.
but they will be urged TO vote TO al
low the people OF the nation, b. states.
through their representatives, TO deter.

REARREST ORDERED
Famous Legislator and Leader
of Drastic ProhibitioniStS,
Charged With Being Drunk
and DisorderIy In a Georgia
Saloon, Will Have To Appear
Before Recorder Johnson In
Atlanta

According to a news dispatch sent
out from Atlanta, Ca, j. b. Brown, a
representative and one OF the leaders
of the drastic prohibition forces, has
been arrested on charge of intoxi-
cation.
A feature of this case is the fact
that Representative Brown, along with
other members of the Georgia legisla-
ture, are now in special session at At
lanta for the purpose of passing pro-
hibitory measures that will really pro-
hibit. after seven years of statewide
prohibition in Georgia.
Another feature of the news story
is the fact that Brown is charged with
entering a saloon in this dry state.
The news dispatch follows:
