question of license or no license.
The only speaker who directly op-
posed the resolution was the Rev. Philip
W. Faunt'eroy OF Matteawan. who was
not a delegate. The speech Of the Rev.
James v. Chalmers brought cheers from
the delegates and insured the success OF
the resolution.
IL am not much Of . prohibitionist
myself" he told them. II am not very
strong for prohibition" But he ex-
plained that tho resolution did not stamp
the convention as favoring prohibition.
but rather as favoring every community
having the right to say whether II
wanted liquor sold within its boundaries.
And what did you do with the 1910
resolution" he asked. "A man here
and man there 40 amended II that
Tammany Hall convention would have
passed II by . majority.
I'VE are bound to the Raines law a.
man Ia bound to his wife. II does not
give city voters the right to say whether
they will have prohibition or not In
that respect they are dlsfranchised.
