campaign to line up public sentiment
for the enforcement OF the prohibition
amendment has been inauguIated in
this city Proponents Of the campaign
plan 10 destroy every ycstige OF the IL
qu0r traffic by the enactment OF laws
and the enforcement OF the machinery
now available.
Under the direction OF the Rev. Ho-
mer w. Tope, superintendent OF the
Philadelphia district OF the Antl-Saloon
League, thirty-three meetings were
held yesterday in this city and vicinity.
some OF the strongest advocates Of pro-
hTbltlon in the United states spoke at
the meetings which inaugurated the
campaign.
Wayne B. Wheeler. OF Washington,
D. c.. general counselor and attorney
for the American Antl-Saloon League,
speaking at the Y. NJ. @. A.. defended
the constitutlonallty OF the prohibition
amendment, but declared that public
warfare against IL is not ended.
~ great prohibition battle has been
won. but the warfare against it is not
ended" Mr.. Wheeler said. public SEN
timent which was crystallized into law
against the liquor traffic must be or
sanlzed for the enforcement Of the law
before the fruits OF the victory can be
secured. There must be no cessation OF
activity on the part Of the formal
forces II there is to be a final victory
and a complete surrender Of the enemy.
"a constitutional amendment is not
self-cxecuting. Penalties and other
ADEQUATE enforcement machinery must
be provided by law. The first essential
io secure the enforcement OF the ma
tional constitutional prohibition is an
effective Federal code. lhasmuch as -
states having more than % per cent. Of
the total population, have ratified the
amendment, the people have a right to
expect that Congress Will enact COM
plete. and effective measures. This
means that every vestige OF the bev-
erage liquor traffic will be destroyed.
IAN effective Federal code will also
proyldc for reasonable search and
seizure proceedings, properly safeguard

dehces. IL will include the usual

visions which have been tried out and

10 fails to do so. il simply means the
prolonglng Of the flght until a com

the Federal government TO prohibit the

current powers TO enact laws 10 accom-
