 "Germany has gone so far as to pro- hibit the use of grains for the manu- fracture of beer. That is the greatest single attack she could have made against the armies of the Allies Let us counter by securing a war prohi- bitlon within go days and national constitutional prohibition within 12 months
 we also have met here to decide, among other things, what shall be our relations henceforth to the or ganization known as the National party. The question I believe with us prohibitionists, is will a complete merger aid us in securing more inn mediately and permanently our orig inal object, national prohibition 2 The complete merger might mean more powerful political party organi- zation. That is not the sole thing for us to seek. We want the organization to be powerful for the execution of our main purpose"
 The national party was organized here last October by representatives of the prollibitonists. progressives, loyal socialists and single taXers. The national and prohibition parties have a number Of purposes in common, notably national prohibition, woman suffrage and public ownership of util- ities. The question of merging the two parties was expected to be fought on the floor of the prohibition con- vention at the session today. Veter- ans in the prohibition ranks opposed merger with any other party while the younger element urged union.
