Now that the war is over what is
the matter with this for a solution of
our difficulties? Robert Louis Steven
son wrote it:
''To be honest, to be kind;
To earn little, to spend a lit l
less;
To make upon the whole, family
happier for his presence;
To renounce when that shall be
necessary and not be embittered;
To keep few friends, but these
Without capitulation;
Above all, on the same grim condi-
ion to keep friends with himself
Here is a task for all that man
as of fortitude and deIcacy."

SPURRED ON BY REACTION

Washington, March 1.-Spurred on by what they
believed is reaction against prohibition in various parts
Of the country liquor interests and states desiring to
main wet today were ready for concerted legal attack
in the supreme court against every important part OF the
18th amendment and the Volstead law enforcing it.
Every effort will be made to expedite the proceed
ngs in order that the main point of the controversy may
be determined before the annual summer recess of the
in June. Only three directly before
the court One the original bill of complaint of the
state of Rhode Island challenging the validity Of both the
amendment and the Vostead law enforcing it and direct
ing that it not be enforced in Rhode Island because
the state did not rafy the amendment Charles Evans
Hughes expected to ask the court to be allowed to file
brief for several dry states attacking the position taken
by Rhode Island political side light Ehu Root, rank
ing with Hughes prominent republican, will appear
in one for the vets.
Argument Of the Rhode Island probably will be
set for next Monday and with it appeal by George
Dempsey, Massachusetts liquor dealer to insist the VOL
stead law unconstitutional because congress in passing
disregarded the fact that the amendment gives to the
states concurrent power to enforce prohibition.
The third is brought by the Ohio dry forces to-
seek to have decision that legislative ratification
of the amendment not be withdrawn if the peo
pie decide against prohibition by referendum. This has
been advanced for argument early next week.

W. II. Austin, counsel for the brewing company, an
nounced that attempt Will be made to manufacture

Austin cotended in arguing for the injunction that the
18th amendment is void because it is not in accordance
with or garane to the constitution of the United States
and that the Volsead void because the power is not
conferred upon congress to egsate with reference to-
what constitutes Intoxicating liquor.
They contend that the second provision of the lSth
amendment confers upon and the several states
concurrent power to pass appropriate Legislation
for enforcement Of prohibition ard that under it's police
powers the before congress took any action passed
the Mulberger law for enforcing prohibition and defined
as Misunderstanding all beverages containing 25 per cent
