NEW CAMP AICN TO
FAVOR THE VETS
Effort win Be Made to Get Favorable
Action from Next Legislature
to Repay saIoonists.

Springfield. H., July 2. A new
campaign Issue between "wets" and
'drys" in Illinois which may be used
in other states, took life during the
closing days of the Illinois legislature.
It was embodied In a hill that proposed
that saloonists who are put out OF bus
mess by popular vote should be recon-
pensed TO the full value of their stocks
and fixtures and compensated for the
good will" attached 10 their places Of
business. This expense was to come
out of the public funds of any com
munity voting out the saloons.
The bill was introduced into both
branches of the state assembly. 1t
was buried in a hostile committee iii
the senate. In the house it was re-
ported favorably and advanced to sec
ond reading where It died in the clos
ing days of the session without com
ing to a vote.
Proponents OF the measure have In
dictated, however, that while circum-
stances gave them no hope Of success
in the 1915 legislature the bill would
be reIntroduced in 1917 and that mean
while its provisions would be used
as campaign material elsewhere. OPP
poneHts of the proposal assert that the
sole object Of the liquor interests in
Introducing the bill is to provide a
Club to hold over towns and cities"
They point out that should the meas
ure become law, communities voting
dry" would not only lose revenue but
be mulcted Of the cost of the saloons
in solid cash The anti-saloon people
also said that they saw in the bill
chances for illegitimate private gain
in that sa tonists who visioued the
handwriting on the wall" could lay
in large stocks Of liquor previous to
elections, lose little or nothing il the
vote resulted in their favor but gain
a considerable cash sum if the anti
saloon forces won. The bill provided
that the saloon keepers should re-
ceive a refund Of the exact price paid
to the wholesaler for his stock and fix
lures.
The history of the bill in the house
began late 81 the session. There were
two committees dealing with saloon
questions. one called the Temperance
committee being composed Of "drys"
and the other. dominated the liberals
committee" being composed of vets"
It was TO this latter committee that
the bill was referred A public hear
ing was announced on the bill and a
special train load of liquor dealers and
manufacturers came to Springfield
from Chicago and other parts Of the
state Levy Mayer, q Chicago attor-
ney. was announced as the spokesman
for the allied liquor organizations and
delivered an argument in favor Of the
bill. No opponents Of the measure were
heard.
Mr.. Mayer argued that the supreme
court of the United States had recog-|
nized the saloon as a legitimate bust
ness enterprise. He said that it nee
essarfly followed that the saloon keep
er was entitled to recompense if his
business were abolished by law. He
pointed out that millions Of dollars
have been invested in the manufac-
turing and dispensing of liquor and
that hundreds Of thousands of persons
gain their livelihood through employ
ment in the business.
