TO THE CITIZENS
OF AM ERICA

~ NV
One year of Prohibition has brought
more laughter to children and more
smiles to women than any other legis-
lation.
1t has turned s.lmshouses and brew.
cries into factories, jails into corn
cribs, and brought their inmates for
ward into the great industrial army.
1t has added untold billions to the
nations wealth, transferred money
from the saloon tills to savings banks
and newly erected homes.
The Eighteenth Amendment has in
creased farm and city values, quick
ened industry and brought to the Unit
ed States the greatest era of prosperi-
ty ever known.
The pro-liQuor element is doing its
utmost to repeal the Volstead Act.
It would nullify the Eighteenth
Amendment, which would mean the
overthrow OF National Prohibition and
its attendant prosperity. Z
The liquor minority proposes to at
tain its ends by capturing the Nation
al Conventions of the political parties
The dry majority, as demonstrated
by ratification in forty-ive states,
MUST CONTROL these conventions.
