Washington, Nov. Reinforcement
Of constitutional prohibition will be
placed up to state and municipal
authorities and q federal government
will not intervene unless such action
becomes necessary. the temperance
board OF the Methodist church was
told today by John F. Kramer federal
prohibition officer. Mr.. Kramer said
the people could be divided into two
classes.
Heretofore the line Of demarkation
had been between those who favored
prohibition and those who opposed.
From now on the line will be between
those who are in favor OF obeying the
law, whether their personal views are
In harmony with it or not, and those
who will be ready to violate the law"
Describing the machinery being set
up for the enforcement OF the dry
laws Mr.. Kramer said the first step
would be with the state inspectors.
Affirming his belief that the mass OF
American people were law abiding,
the prohibition chief declared this fact
would be a mighty aid in enforcing the
law.
He declared the local authorities
should be jealous Of their rights OF en-
forcement and Jealous OF their duty.
