LAW ENFORCEMENT FIRST

w. Mcdonald Lee, National Direc
tor OF the great campaign launched
by the Anti-Saloon League of America,
has made the following statement
showing the objects of the campaign,
why it is necessary, and to what pur-
poses the funds raised will be de-
voted
1--WE have three great aims In this
campaign" declared Mr. Lee, "all of
which will appeal to every patriotic
American who has the welfare of his
own country at heart and any regard
for the moral and spiritual welfare
and progress of our neighboring ma
TONS These aims are as follows:
"a To aid home Law Enforcement
(requiring about nine million).
(2) To Americanize the Foreigner
(requiring about nine million).
(3) A Dry World by 1880 (includine
Mexico and West Indies).
"a fourth of the money raised in
the campaign is to be left in the State
for object one, Law Enforcement, ;
which means creating public senti
ment for observance of law, and de
mand for officers who will enforce the
law. Internal Revenue Commissioner
Daniel Roper and Federal and State
officers nearly everywhere invite sucl
cooperation by our organization ant
similar ones. Liquor interests have
organized-it is said with $400, O0O, 00C

Another fourth Of the money, for
object two, goes to the Anti-Saloon
League of America for work among
F-aliens in this country. We must make
good and law-abiding citizens of those
foreigners who stay with us, through
education, literature and speakers in
the only language they may know.
While harangued by anarchists and
booze-advocates they remain a men
ace to our institutions. These scat
tered colonies within our borders can
be reached only through the systematic
and studied propaganda of the Ma
tional League.
such of the remainder of the funds
as may be determined by the State
and National League is to be devoted
to object three. All the world is now
our neighbor. Five critical years have
demonstrated that we are vitality af-
fected by conditions elsewhere on the
globe. One dollars worth of liquor
will counterfeit hundred dollars Of
the money so generously given to mis-
sions by Baptists, Methodists, Presoy-
terians, Episcopalians and others
Let's help make effective these mis-
sisnary gifts. The missionary pleads
fer our help against the emigrating
liquor dealer and his wares that are
hurrying to other shores.
"Under objects one and two the
Anti-Saloon League seeks to remove
the cause that Y. NJ C. A., Red Cross,
Salvation Army and other noble bodies
are earnestly striving to remedy With
| Jaw enforcement, proper education and
removal of temptation there will be
less poverty, fewer dens of vice, a
redemption from misery to women and
children, and the work of those great
organizations will be made easier and
the quicker accomplished.
Under object three it will be pos
sible to "clean up Cuba and the
Bahamas from the liquor and vice con.
tagion that is already affecting our
shores. Mexico Also because of which
probably a hundred million dollars a
year is spent by our American Govern.
ment to keep the peace, would be less
a disturbing element if drink were
abolished and this can be accom-.
plished. AS an aid in preventing
Bolshevism from spreading to our
shores, some countries of the Old
World should be made acquainted
with our customs and laws and theil
citizens taught to respect such before
emlgrating here.
