The Carlisle independent., 1918-02-14

Active work is being done in nearly all the states to secure ratification of the prohibition amendment which re- gently passed congress. Since the wom- an suffrage amendment passed the house the senate has been besieged day after day by suffragists who are en- deavoring to land enough votes to pass it in that body. Although strong claims are made to the effect that the amendment will pass, the senators who are handling the matter say that four or five votes are still lacking. They also say that the resolution will not be brought to a vote until the necessary two-thirds of the senate in its favor is assured.
 The activities in behalf of both these amendments have been carried on not withstanding the amendment, generally coming from the opponents of both amendments, that the energies of the country at this time ought to be de- voted to the war and that all other political and economic questions should be laid aside until after the war has been successfully concluded. The prOhibitionists have replied that in securing prohibition they are helping to win the war, and the suffragists have made the same claim in regard to woman suffrage.
