NEEDED:---A Federal Law Governing Liquor
Advertisements

There eighteen Prohibition states in the
Union It is reasonable to expect before the close of
the year at least three These states have out
lawed the liquor traffic. They don't want the saloon
IN their midst; neither do they substitute for
the sa on One of the greatest evils the dry has
to contend against is the mail order liquor house.
Outside liquor interests carry extensive campaigns
of advertising endeavor override the law of the
people of these Prohibition states. The Webb KENYON
law has been of tremendous assistance in minimizing
the sales of the mail order liquor houses 1t has re-
moved the protection of the federal government from
liquor shipments which otherwise would be safe under
the interstate commerce law.
Some of the states in order to more effectively
control liquor shipments have embodied in their law
enforcement anti-advertising clauses. West
Virginia prohibits advertising by circular letter. news
paper billboard and this provision of the law has
been upheld by the federal court
Alabama has enacted stringent anti-adver-
Using law, prohibiting the sale and circulation within
the state OF newspapers no matter where printed,
carrying liquor advertisements This law is yet to
be tested in the courts.
Alabama's legislature memorialized Congress,
asking for federal law to prohibit the use of the
mails for the distribution Of liquor advertisements Just
as the federal law prohibits the of the mails for
distribution of lottery tickets lottery literature
The law regarding liquor advertising is to hold good
only with reference to dry territory Such measure
has been introduced in Congress.
The federal government should give the dry
states every reasonable help make Prohibition pro-
hlbt and it is not unreasonable to ask that federal
protection for liquor advertisers in dry states should
be removed

German preparedness has meant the
participation OF the whole population
in the work of fghting-the children

children are released to harvest the
crops. In peace while the men were

all American woman who had married
an Austrian explained that it was no
proof of exhaustion to cite the presence
OF German women on the railroads, in
the mines and in the fields because
they labored in these vocations in time
of peace! All this readiness was ac-
cepted by Germans as a guarantee OF
peace-the kaiser was the Prince OF
Peace and he had kept the peace for
forty years!
But when the task of preparedness
hai been finished war was to be declar-
ed! 1t was urged that Germany made
war because Russia refused to stop
mobilization-Germany must support
her ally; Germany invaded Belgium
because the other road into France was
closed-Germany is fighting to protect
herself from invasion! One after an
other those claims have been made.
