National Prohibition
= Is FOreSeen by Wright

IF the ruling OF the United States
supreme court Monday sustaining the
act of congress in passing what is
known as the 'Webb-Kenyon' bill is to
be taken as the acknowledgements that
Try states may forbid liquor being
brought into their borders by any inter
state agency, then it simply means
revolution as regards liquor laWS-ab-
solute prohibition in every dry state"
declared the Hon. Seaborn Wright, of
Rome Ga, who was in Atlanta Tuesday
morning.
Mr. Wright, who was the author of
The first state prohibition law of Geor-
gia, and who will return to the state
legislature SheE it next convenes, was
enthusiastic over the action of the tri-
tunal at Washington.
ITS rather hazy, the accounts of the
action" said he, "and 1 can't feel sure
just how to interpret the dispatches from
Washington; they are not clear enough
But if it really means that the inter
state commerce laws will no longer null
lily those of a state, in regard to liquor
shipments, then every dry state in the
union will probably follow the decision
by legislation absolutely forbidding the
bringing within their borders of any
kind of Intoxicating liquors"
GEORGIA SITUATION.
Mr.. Wright hesitated a minute be-
fore answering the question put tC him
as to whether the next legislature in
Georgia would follow UP this deci-
SIGN"
81 don't know what the complexion Of
the next legislature will be-" he said fl
nally, but if it resembles that of 1916
l believe that Georgia will amend her
prohibition law making it impossible to
secure intoxicating LIQUORS.
But l can't understand this dispatch
he said half humorously perhaps its
because l think it's almost too good to be
true. This thing will mean a revolution.
It's the real step towards national prohi-
bition. The people in Georgia want alb
solute prohibition if they ever wanted
any kind, and it looks as though they
were going to get their desire.
Il haven't made one single investiga-
ton Of the complexion of the next legis-
lature, and l can't forecast what's going
to be done.
THE reason why the states once re-
pudiated their prohibition laws-all but
Maine-was because the interstate law
nullifed their own. But if that is
cleared away, then nothing can stop ma
tional prohibition.
THE great feature of this decision is
the way that our courts are no longer
HdHSiHS over uedu pTeCSutHLS' Dut lIlSJ
are keeping abreast of the great social
and economic changes in our govern
ment."
Mr. Wright stated that he was going
to Washington Wednesday with the
Georgia contingent who were working
for the armor-plate plant at Rome, and
that he was looking forward with inter-
est toward discussing the ruling Of the
court with Wayne 3. Wheeler, counsel
for the Anti-Saloon League of America.
