The Anti-Saloon league Of Ohio is
not to be permitted to carry on a
night next year for fake prohibition
amendment. Unless their proposition
is honest, the Law Enforcement
league will initiate an amendment to
the constitution that will have teeth
in it, according to the statement of
Mr.. Mack, general manager Of the
Law Enforcement league. Evidently
Mr.. Mack has not much confidence
in the integrity Of the Anti-Saloon
league, and this opinion is held by
many other people. The Anti-Saloon
leagues managers devote more time
to playing politics than they do to
wiping out saloons. What a fine
thing for them is the promoting Of a
prohibition amendment-it gives un-
ilimited opportunity for passing the
hat, which seems to be their principal
occupation when they are not playing
politics.

that must be cleaned up.
BLAMES ANTI LEAGUE
"This control of liquor patronage,
which is general over the state, has
been made possible by the connivance
of inspectors of the license depart
ment, lack of action on the part of the
Anti-Saloon league and by a combina-
tion of state politicians in both par
ties working together. call the at
tention of the incoming administration
to the recent action of the state board
in ordering saloons opened in the
manufacturing districts in Akron,
against the protests of the local board
and of business and moral forces
These are some of the fruits of po-
litical control of the temperance
movement.
"The good people of Ohio may rest
assured that the Law Enforcement
league will earnestly assist the moral
forces In cleaning up Ohio"
