clear that it simply manifests a lk.
purpose to adjust, as far as possible,
the exercise of the new powers passed
upon Congress by the amendment to the
dual system of government existing
under the Constitution.
"In other words, dealing with the
new prohibition created by the Con-
stitution, operating throughout the
length and breadth of the United
States, without reference to state lines
or the distinctions between state ana
Federal power and contemplating the
exercise by Congress of the duty
passed upon it to make the prohibition
efficacious, it was sought by the second
section to unite national and state ad-
ministrative agencies in giving effect
to the amendment and the legislation
OF Congress enacted to make it con-
pletely operative"

tions when they arise"
Commenting on the decision Of the
supreme Court, Wayne B. Wheeler,
general counsel for the Anti-Saloon
League Of America, said:
The decision of the Supreme Court
sustaining the Eighteenth Amendment
and the prohibition code, kills the
beverage liquor traffic as dead as
! slavery. The victory is the moro sig
nlncant, because of the unusual and
unprecedented methods used by the
lquor interest to ;nfuence Congress,
law enforcement officials and even the
courts. From now on any candidate on
beer and wine platform will have a
hard time explaining his position if he
Is loyal to the Constitution and repre-
sents himself as standing for law en-
forcement
THE decision marks the climax of
the prohibition victory. This policy Of
government now sustained by the ST.
preme Court will 60 down in history

ever achieved by a self-govern;ng
people.
John F. Kramer, Federal Prohibition
Commissioner. predicts that the decis-
ION will have beneficial effect.
"Uncertainty is ended" said Kramer.
The principle of prohibition is fixed"
Officials charged with enforcement
of the prohibitory laws believe the
courts action will make their task
easier. They point out that judges who
might have hesitated to send Ren to
Jail, while doubt remained, need no
longer lack assurance, and that the
same thing will apply to district at
torneys.
The only prohibition question still
pending before the court involves the
constitutionality of the Volstead act in
prohibiting the storage in warehouses
of liquors for personal use. This will
not be decided before the reconvening

urged, because it osrenslbly accepts
the Constitutional mandate as to the
concurrence of the two powers and
proceeds Immediately by way of in
terpretation to destroy it by making
one paramount over the other.
The proposition is that the concur
rent powers conferred upon Congress
and and the states are not subject to con-
t1ict because their exertion Is author
lzed within different areas, that is, by
Congress within the fields of Federal
authority, and by the states within the
sphere of the state power, hence leav-
ing the states free within their juris-
diction to determine separately for
themselves what, within reasonable
limits, is an Intoxicating liquor, and to
Congress the same right within the
sphere of its jurisdictions But the un-
soundness of this more plausible con-
tentlon seems to me at once exposed by
directing attention to the fact that in
a case where no state legislation was
enacted there would be no prohibition,
thus again frustrating the first section
by construction affixed TO the second.
1t no answer to suggest that regu-
lation by Congress would in such event
be operative in such a state, since the
basis of the distinction upon which the
argument rests is that the concurrent
power conferred upon Congress is con-
fined to the area of it's Jurisdiction, and
therefore is not operative within a
state
Confusion In Arguments
"Comprehensively looking at all
these contentious, the confusion and
contradiction to which they lead, serves,
in my judgment, to make it certain
that it cannot possibly be that Con-
gress and the states entered into the
great and important business of amend
ing the Constitution in a matter so
vitally concerning all the people solely
impossible, or If possible, to SO define
and0imit 1t as to cause it to be pro-
ductive Of no result and to Illustrate
the obvious intent and general pur-
pose contemplated. 1t is true, indeed,
that the mere words of the second
section tend to these results, but if
they be read in the light Of the cardinal
rules which compel consideration of
the context in view of the situation
and the subject with which the amend
ment dealt and the purpose which it
fusion will be seen to be only apparent.
I'm the Iirst place, it is indisputable
that the first section imposes a gen.
eral prohibition which it was the pur-
pose to make universally and uniformly
operative and efficacious. In the second
place, as the prohibition did not define
the Intoxicating beverages which it
prohibited, in the absence of anything
to the contrary, it clearly, from the
very fact of its adoption, passed upon
Congress the duty not only of defining
the prohibited beverages, but also Of
enacting such regulations and sanctions
as as were essential to make them opera
tive when defined. In the third place.
when the second section is considered
with these truths in mind. it becomes

The Super-Six performs its duties
with such reliance and ease one is
apt to overlook the causes for it's
supremacy.
Drivers and passengers of Hudson
are seldom conscious that there is any
thing mechanical in it's smooth
transportation. 1t never obtrudes it's
mechanism.
So, from time to time, it is necessary
to call attention to the Super-Sx motor
and it's exclusive patented principle,
which accounts for this fact.
