The Battle To Make
America Dry Has
Only Just Begun

The United States senate has passed
the Sheppard prohibition amendment by
A vote of 65 TO 20 and the measure is
assured of passage in the lower house.
That is a big victory for the forces OF
decency. It marks the triumphant end
of long struggle against legislative
inertia and political pressure.
But the battle is far from won. The
greatest struggle is yet 10 come.
Passage Of the amendment IS only the
opening smash in the great drive against
organized booze, which must be fought
TO a finish before the United States can
be made safe for democracy.
The forces Of decency have carried
the enemys first line trenches, but the
hosts of King Alcohol retain possession
of two strategic positions Of the utmost
importance.
The first is found in the constitution
al provision requiring that consutu-
tional amendment must be ratified by
the legislatures of three-fourths OF the
states in the union.
The second. on which the enemy is
relying for ultimate victory, IS the clause
In the amendment which makes II nui.
and void unless ratified within six years.
This means that the drys must secure
ratication Of the amendment IN the %
states now under prohibitory laws and
capture IL others before 1928.
Unless they can do this, the long fight
10 line UP congress on the side OF de-
cency will have been in vain, and the
campaign for boozeless America VIII
have to be begun all over again.
In view of these facts. special respon-
sibihty rests upon the people OF the
state of Michigan.
Having registered by an overwhelm-
ing majority their conviction that liquor
has no place in the body polite, It is
now up to them TO make their will felt
IN the councils of the nation.
Banished from the state by popular
verdict, the liquor interests will now con-
centrate all their efforts to prevent rati-
fication of the federal dry amendment
by the Michigan legislature.
Thousands of dollars viii be spent and
expert political workers will spread their
thru every voting precinct
IN the state TO secure the election Of
men who will vote against the amend |
ment.
There never was a time when the Sc
lection of the right kind Of men to repre-
sent the people of Michigan in their leg
islature was more imperative.
Unless they wish to be caught mapping.
the enemies of booze must begin right
now to campaign for the election 10 the
next legislature Of men who have de-
cency, backbone and sense Of obliga-
ton to the community which they rep
resent.
And, incidentally, don't forget the all
important matter Of women's suffrage
Where the women exercise the ballot
booze is doomed
Therefore, behooves every sincere
supporter Of the Sheppard amendment
In congress to work for the passage Of
that other Will measure, the Susan B.
Anthony amendment for universal equal
suffrage.
And it is incumbent on every liquor
foe here at home to see that Michigan
women obtain full suffrage privileges at
the earliest possible date.
