Yon know how during the war
the PRoFITEERs lied about LaFoilette;
how their paid newspapers tried to
disgrace him and drive him ont OF
public life. And you know WHY
because he had been the ONE MAN that
has fought for the welfare of the
COMMON PEOPLE and FOUGHT HARD,
and ALL THE TIME. Naturally he
made enemies of the plunderbnnd
and when the time came for the
profteers to reap their harvest from
the misfortunes of the world, they
did not want Bob LaFOllette In the
way. You know what they did to
Bob LaFollette and how they scared
many Progressiyes off the track. And
you know what they did to the PEo:

the advice Of his physicians he has
gone back TO Washington 10 be in at
the finish of the League Of Nations
fight.
But Bob's heart is back in Old Wis
cousin. lie wants 10 know whether
the PEOPLE ARE GOING 10 BACK UP
HIS WORK IN WASHINGTON. If they
do. il will put the FEAR OF COB into
those who are preparing for another
great crime to put all of the cost of
the war on the backs of the common
people.

viii Anything Be Done To Let
Ub On Bone Dry Condition,
Is Question In Washington

! the constitution of the United States
under which they were enacted.
They do know that the court thus
far has steadily backed up the con
I gress enactments. but now that the
question has departed from interpre-
tation OF the strict letter of the law
and entered upon the wider field OF
the relations. under the constitution,
between the federal government and
the ~so-called sovereign states.
many otherwise confident ~forecasters
are afraid to venture predictions OF
the courts iourneyings INTO this re-
gion, a portion Of which Is hitnerto
u~nexplored.
This unknown land Is the CON
.current' enforcement by the congress
and the states of the constitutional
prohibition against liquors. Upon
definition by the supreme court Will
depend whether the states may Dy
enactment permit the manufac-
ture of light wines and beers. through
legislative decision as to what per
centage of alcohol constitutes an IN
beverage. prohibited by
constitutional amendment.
As is well known. several states,
notably New Jersey and fthod Island
have undertaken to designate an alco-
holic content in excess of that pre-
by the act of Congress, and
other states are known to stand ready
to follow suit If the Supreme Court
decides they have that power. If the
court denies states that privilege. and
upholds in every way the constitution
al amendment. there will be no re-
for those who would relax the
restrictions. save to a future congress
would raise h national STAN
dard of alcoholic content.
Congressmen in touch with their
constituents on this very burning ques-
ton saw that there are many varying
of public opinion some OF
them surprising. Only on one feature
of the liquor question. they say, do
find practically unanimous agree
ment among the people at large. and
that is that the saloon Is dead, never
to be resurrected in this country. The
Of intoxicating liquors even
what might be called moderate
ly reasonable restrictions Is altogether
unlikely, and the open bar is absolute

Copyright, 1920. by The Washington
S;ar)
WASHINGTON, April 14:-Pretty
near the first question the average
visitor to the national capital asks OF
the solons on Capitol Hill Is VIII
anything be done to loosen up the
nationwide bone-dry state OF ar
fairs?" The same question or words
tantamount thereto form the burden
OF many letters received by the
statesmen.
Sometimes the query is followed by
language which shows 1t to have been
nut in a hopeful frame OF mind, the
interrogation having in the back of
his head some last glimmer of ex-
recitation, a spark In the ashes that
has not yet been extinguished by
congressional legislation and su-
preme court UNFOLDING. Other times
the question Is put apprehensiveiy,
as II the ~propounder cared thar
some court or congress procedure
NAV break down a section or tne
wall which has been built up against
the use of more than one-half or one
per cent. of alcohol.
The way of asking II all depends
upon how the questioner feels on the
subject. And by the same token. the
burden of the answer is likewise
largely influenced by the respondents
personal predictions or views. The
wish is often father to the thought.
Considered In the cold light or
as they exist. the situation Is
found to show overwhelming drift In
against relaxation or the
bone-dry statute, and up to this time
AT least. unmistakable disposition In
the court of last resort to uphold the
of congress. The best
of wise men on Capitol Hill
is that no abatement of the restric-
tive laws need to- be expected from
this congress. What other congress-
es may do Is another question.
Eminent men. learned in the law
and well grounded upon the constltu-
lion and its Interpretation by the
courts, differ In their DEMONSTRATIONS
as to whether the expected forthcom-
decisions of the supreme court
will modify the existing rigorous sta
or nullify the amendment to

liz impossible Of rehabilitation IN ms
land.
And. 1t is reported to these con-
a great many people VINO
we're formerly associated in various
ways with the trade concur not only IN
this opinion but express their ap-
|provaI. The belief among the statss-
men on the Hill Is that a man W.
wouId advocate the open saloon wou!o
not get enough votes in a congressioh-
al election to elect him dog catcher
for a country community.
On the other hand. It Is reported
to congressmen that there is a very
remarkable shifting of public opinion
or IL may be open demonstration OF an
opinion already fixed, In favor OF
modifying the drastic statutes OF pro-
hibition. Good people-and py tnat
term they mean they say, people VINO
have never been identified as men
about town" are chatting under restric-
tons now imposed; not always or SO
much because they do not want n
thing prohibited, but because they re-
sent its being prohibited to them.
Make no mistake" said a con-
with a constituency which
includes both city n agricultural
populations, about the people being
stirred over this question and watch
ing congress and the supreme court
with close scrutiny. 1t is the biggest
thing since slavery. In popular In
terest."
Looking forward to possible up
holding by the supreme court OF every
phase of constitutional and legislative
prohibition, the people who are lined
up on the opposing ides of the ques-
ton Of relaxing the laws. find them
selves facing fights to be made in the
future for modification of the acts Oh
so as to permit state legis-
lation In conformity IL desired.
1t Is pointed out that the "drys," in
most of the states. have two lines OF
trenches which must be carried by tho
VETS before the present stronghold
of the "drys' can be captured. the
first line of defense is the act of con-
gress, defining alcoholic content. The
line of defense Is the state
statute. in the dry states, on the sub
ject.
The political aspect of the question
Is that neither of the two great part
les Is likely to include wet planks
in their national platforms. Prohihi-
ton Is expected to be endorsed by
the platforms. The of those
who favor or oppose modification Will
be to fight or support individual candi-
dates. running on both the national
platform, but with declared individ-
ual views upon the subject.
