New Mexico Judge Rules
Against the Contention
of the VETS.

Santa Fe, n. NJ. Sept 6.-Holdiag
that the indiscriminate sale Of liquors
( is a menace to the health and safety
Of the public Judge Reed Hoiloman.
OF the first district court, ruled today
that the secretary OF state Of New
Mexico cannot be compelled to submit
to a referendum vote the question Of
ratifying the national prohibition
amendment Judge Houoman's opinion
IS 20 pages In length, and shows an
exhaustive study OF the question. The
next move in this interesting case viii
be made in the New Mexico supreme
court. where It viii be carried on ap-
peal.
In ruling that the public health and
safety are menaced. the opinion saws;
The only justification for bringing
the prohibition laws within the police
power OF the state IS because OF the
fact that indiscriminate sale Of in
toXicating LIQUORS Is productive Of
more evil to the health OF the people
and the safety Of the public than any
other one thing Courts all over the
land. in passing on that point. have
taken judicial notice OF that fact. and
at this day that such is the effect
OF the liquor business is not seriously
questioned"
Dliters From Other Opinions.
The first reason upon which the
court bases the refusal 10 grant the
writ OF mandamus Is that the federal
constitution specifies that amendments
TO the federal constitution shall be-
come effective after they have heea
satisfied by the legislatures OF three
t0urths Of the several states The
opinion holds that In using the term
legislature the federal constitution
referred to the general assembly as
being the only recognized laWmaking
body and did not include the Iegisla-
tive power OF the people In taking
this position the court differs with
south Dakota, Ohio and Washington
40 quote the opinion:
But II now becomes necessary to 20
rurther than the ordinary rule OF con-
struction for the reason that about
three states. South Dakota. Ohio and
washington. IN order 10 maintain the
referendum. this latter dav depa-tlrs
from representative government. have
apparently COMPOUNDED legislature
with legislative power. and have
transformed legislature from an en-
tity to a speculative idea"
In further support OF this position
the opinion quotes at length from tbe
proceedings Of the federal constftu-
uOnal convention
Amendment Not n Law.
The record IS that the amendment to
the constitution in question Is not a
"a y, and therefore cannot be submit
ted to a referendum vote.
me fourth and last reason IS that
the issue is now a moot question IN
thiS connection the opinion saws:
