ENGLAND FACES DRY
SPELL; SHUDDERS
By MARY HENkE.

LONDON, Nov. 2.-The American
prohibitionists in England, headed by
Mr.. ''Pussyfoot" johnson have carried
their war into the enemys territory
with a vengeance in going to Scot
land to push their efforts for dry"
Britain.
The 'pussyfooters' as they are
dubbed by the English, are hopeful OF
enlisting the support of the Scottish
women, who will have a vote in the
coming option elections. Whiskey is
accepted as the national drink of the
Scotch, and is drunk in great quanti-
ties SO if a victory is gained by the
dry" forces it will be only after a
severe fight.
Dora as the unpopular Defense Of
the Realm Act is called, is still in ef-
feet and the average Englishman finds
1t almost as hard to get it, al present
"as the average American. Intoxica,-
ing liquors can be sold for only "a
few hours day, and command a very
high price
Prohibition is feared by many Eng
lishmen because Of what they declare
would be its effect on labor. The
workingman has always had his beer.
they say. and he would start some
thing" if he were to be deprived of it.
Other opponents base their conten-
tions on the free rights and privilege
of British citizen. Prohibition in the
United States is deprecated by most
Englishmen, who declare that it will
never prove successful. Women and
men of the ''better'' class unite in
70 a
general outlook is for a number Of
years Of missionary work by the
"pussyfoots" before Great Britain con-
sents to vote itself dry.
Persons who recognize a need OF at
least regulating the sale of intoxicat-
ing liquors are advocating the reform
Of the public house where these
beverages are sold. The public house
in England. and London especially at
present, is for most cases dirty, un-
inviting saloon: 1t is the theory of
many that if the public house were
made an inn, as it was in the old days.
where drink and food could be sold
to men and women and their families.
the arguments of the reform agitatOrs
could be met to a great extent. Licen-
cling of houses, rather than individuals.
to sell intoxicating liquors is also con-
demned. Brewers buy up numbers OF
licensed houses, it is said. and control
the sale of liquors in large district.
Many English brewers have become
immensely wealthy in this way.
On the whole, it seems that the ef-
forts of the American dry forces are
going to have some influence in re-
forming the LIQUOR business in Eng
land, whether they succeed or not for
the present in putting it completely
out OF existence.
