East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1919-01-16

The amendment which outlaws Ii
quOr in this country reads:
''Section AFTER one year from
the ratification of this article the
manufacture, sale or transportation OF
intoxicating liquors within, the inn.
pOrtation thereof into, or the expOrta-
ton thereof, from the United States
and all territory subject to the juris-
diction thereof, for beverage purposes
are hereby prohibited.
section 2-The congress and the
several states have the concurrent
power to enforce this article by ap-
prOpriate legislation
SEVEN YEARS ALLOWED
"Section 3-The article shall be in.
operative unless il shall have been
ratified as an amendment to the con-
stitutiOn by the legislatures of the
several states as provided by the con-
stitution within seven years of the
date of submission hereof to the states
by congress-" N
This is the amendment adopted by
congress December is, 1917. and rat
iTied by thirty-six states little more
than one year later.
And here are some of the things
that the amendment will do:
Wipe out at a stroke 236 distiller-
les; 992 breweries, and over 100000
saloons and wholesale liquor cstab>
lishments, forcing their employees to
seek other jobs.
Cut off from these persons annual
income totaling more than $70,0OO,-
900 in pre-war times.
Cuts off from the United States
treasury a source Of taxation counted
upon for an even billion dollars in tho
first drafts of the new revenue bin!
and millions in additional Incomes to
state treasures.
DECREASES LAW VIOLATIONS
Remove the liquor question from
national, state and city politics for all
time and keep decreasing city, state
and federal expense by decreasing law
The fight on liquor. triumphant to-
day is as old as the constitution itself,
1t raised its head early in the nine
teenth century and was looked upon
as another crank notion"
But it gained strength. Churches
took it up, doctors followed and then
came organizations of anti-liquor So
cieties and the anti-Saloon League and
others.
MAINE WAS PIONEER
In the middle of the nineteenth
Maine went dry. Kansas fol-
lowed. At the end of the civil war
the little band of anti-slave agitators
who had won their fight seriously
considered turning to the prohibition
battle. Their number included VIM.
Lloyd Garrison and the poet Whit
tier.
About 1900 came the militant.
stage in the person of Carrie Nation
of Kansas, probably the most pio-
figure the fight ever devel-
oped.
Ten years later the crusade against
liquor had grown from the rawlings
Of cranks" into an irresistible move
ment that swept the country.
"CONIEBACK" ALREADY
PLANNED.
But John Barleycorn will try to
stage a Comeback
