MAKE THE BRAIN SODDEN-render Il.
by constant soaking in beer, only half
sctive-and you have a being more akin to
brute than a man. Tractabie3 Yes-but
never dependable.
MOVE NO LONGER hold beer soaked
people up as examples of-anything,
AMERICAN GENERALS found that
men who went over the top sober were
better able TO do their part and take care
OF specially IL vomded-than
were soldiers who had grog served to them
to lend sn artificial, momcntary courage
THEY EVEN TRY--the Saloon propagsn-
dists-to make you think our soidier boys
resent the abolition of the saloon.
WHAT AN INSULT TO those brave boys and
to your intelligence
AS If EVERY AMERICAN SOLDIER
were a topper so addicted to his booze that.
like a dope fiend. he would fight If deprived
THAT'S THE VERIEST ROT of course.
They know il is-else why do they not dare
say just what this Beer and Wine"
Amendment really means2
WHY DO THEY TRY TO HIDE it's real
intent under an innocent sounding title
and hide it's meaning again by IA tricky use
of words Why2
BECAUSE THEY KNOW that the people
who voted Michigan dry still want it dry.
And they know too that the votes of the
men will now be supported and augmented
by the votes of Michigan women-and they
know what that vote will say
THEIR ONLY CHANCE to get the saloon
back is TO make you think they want some
thing else For they know you want no
more of the saloon.
1T is THEIR LAST forlorn hope-their last
dying kick The saloon is gone never to
return. The longer we without u
the less we miss 1.-THE less does anyone
want il back.
THEY'D LIKE TO DRIVE a wedge in the
Federal act by getting this amendment
through in Michigan. That is the big sig
nihcance of this attempt-that is why so
much outside money is being spent in
propaganda here.
TRUTH TO TELL there isn't much Michi-
gan money being spent-Michigan brewer
les and Saloonists look upon IL as dead
issue They are making other plans and
are not sending more good money aftct bad.
BUT OUTSIDERS arc still frantically trying
TO get Michigan back in the wet column
as TO prevent nationwide prohibition and
the utter dismanthng of every brewery and
distillery IN this country.
FOR THAT KIND OF PROHIBITION does
prohibit--no more chance for disgT accfuL
and Detroit.
THEY HAVE EVEN TRIED TO make TINS
appear a religious issue-thcir propaganda
says some denominations are against dry
state.
IT'S NOTHING OF THE KIND--afewmen
of all denominations favor a Wet condition.
But the vast majority of all religious dc
nominations are for a dry state and dry
nation.
THIS ISN'T A MATTER OF religion; OF sect.
of nationality. II Is Just n matter of de-
cency and sanity and GOOD citizenship as
against rowdyism.
WATCH THIS THING-it is counterfeit.
II docs not mean what IL says. It's ttie
IL misnomer. Its intent Is vicioua II
dresses in the guise of hbcrty--pzsonal
hbcrty"-its effect would be TO enslave
again
1T is CALLED THE Beer and Vine
Amendment"-its real name is the Saloon.
DO YOU WANT the saloon back2
If NOT-vote NO April 9TH to
the so-called Beer and Wine
Amendment.
