To The Editor Of WomdR'S Page:
Dear Madam--May | trouble you with
a few questions? | read your column
diligently and know how you have helped
and are helping others. My first query
is: When did the Anti-Saloon League
movement start? Second. where did
1t have its inception? Third. in what
part Of the country is il strongest /?
Fourth. is it ut the present time atfili-
ated with the Prohibition party. and
which organization should receive the
credit or blame (if one will have It that
WaI) for the recent dry amendment to
the constitution of the United States?
YOUR DEVOTED READER.
The Anti-Saloon League was founded
as state body in 1893 in WesterYille.
ohio. Two years later II became a ma
tional organization. It has been very.
active In influencing legislatures in
states all over the country The league
was particularly strong in the south
during the first years of the present GEN.
tury. when a wave of prohihi'i"~ spread u
in that locality. / am informed it is
stronger now in the Middle West than in
any other part of the states. The Anti
Saloon League is not affiliated with the
Prohibition Nparty in particular, but has
attempted to reach the legislators of all
parties in order to make them vote for
prohibition. 1t would be difficult to say
what force was more powerful than
any other in bringing about the dry
amendment
