"The tendency of the highest court

Justice Brandeis pointed out that

took similar action during the same

delayed until this year, when the vari-
Gus state legislatures convened. Then

Before Congress 40 Years.
Bills providing for nationwide prohi-
bition by legislation and resolutions
proposing constitutional amendments
for the same purpose have been before
congress almost continually for more
than 40 years. Senator III. w. Blair of
New Hampshire proposed the first
amendment in 1876. This provided only
for the prohibition of the manufacture
and sale of spirituous distilled liquors
for beverage purposes. He introduced
similar measure nine times, chang
ing il in 1885 to include all alcoholic
liquors.
Congressman Hobson of Alabama in
troduced the famous "Hobson resolu-
ton" In the house December 10, 1913.
The amendment was amended many
times by HobsOn himself, finally pro-
viding for a division of responsibility
for the enforcement of the law be-
tween state and federal governments.
This was done to secure the support
of certain advocates of 'state rights"
The resolution came to vote Decem-
ber %, 1914, but received only 1877
votes, while 258 were necessary for it's
adoption.
In 1914 Senator Works of California
introduced bill providing for the pro-
hibition of spirituous liquors, including
wine and beer, but it received little
support from prohibition leaders and
did not come to vote.
May Go to Courts.
There is probability that antiprohi
bition forces will attempt to secure an
annulment of the ratification vote in
several states and will attack the le-
| gality of the action of congress. In
| San Francisco court order has been
| secured restraining Governor Stephens
temporarily from signing the ratifica-
| ton of the amendment. 1t has been
stated that similar action may be taken
in other states, including Arkansas,
Colorado, Maine, Nevada, New Mexico,
Oklahoma. Oregon, Utah, Washington,
| Missouri aud Nebraska. In these
states, 1t Is declared, all action taken
by the state legislatures may be sub
mitted to the people under a referen-
| DUN.
The Anti-Saloon league contends
that this is impossible, outlining itF
position in the following statement:
ARTICLE V Of the federal Constitu.
tion provides that the legislature or
state convention is the only body
which can ratify an amendment to the
Constitution. Congress is given the
power to say which one shall have the
authority. Congress had chosen the
state legislatures as the bodies to rati.
| fly the federal prohibition amendment
A state referendum therefore would be
illegal and void"
Attorneys for the liquor interests
claim that there are many points or
which the amendment may be attacked
in the courts and plans have beer
made, it is declared, for action alons
these lines.

States Enact Dry Laws.
The activities of these early leaders

state laws provided for local option,

In 1887 Neal Dow, alarmed by the
vast quantities of rum entering Maine
through the West Indian trade. began
his agitation for prohibition in that
state. Stringent regulation of the

chusetts and Rhode Island in 1852
passed laws forbidding the sale of
| liquor these laws were subsequently
repealed. Massachusetts adopted local
| option by towns. Iowa passed a con-
stitutional amendment in 1882; it was
declared void and was superseded by
statute (1SS4). This in turn was done
away with by the famous Mulct law,
which itself was modified. Several
states rejected prohibition sought to
| be secured either through statute or
by constitutional amendment. Kan
sas adopted prohibition in 1890 and a
little later openly violated the law. So
there was spasmodic activity in most
parts of the country toward pro-
hibition, but it was without plan or
] cohesion. When the ratification of the
eighteenth amendment began the situa-
ton by states as to prohibition was as
indicated by the following table:
