WILL SET ALL BRITAIN AFIRE
Effect of the Result of the First Wetand Dry Elections in Scotland
Viewed by A. G. Gardiner Editor Of London Daily News

Late returns show that the dry
propaganda was severely beaten in
Scotland, the only victories for the
Prohibitionists being in the country
districts and few wards in Glss-
Cow; but this is only the first skir-
mish in long campaign that prom
ises to be the most thrilling domestic
issue in British politics for years 10
come. AT least, the Prohibitionists
have drawn the first blood Some vii
lagos and towns have. gone dry, and
although a majority seem to have
voted for no change, the handwriting
on the wall is unmistakable.
England is watching the progress
of the struggle in the north almost as
feverishly as he watches the progress
of the tragedy in Ireland, For al
though in these matters. Scotland is
an Independent country, everyone
knows that il the dry movement
catches on there il will not stop at
the border. 1t is prairie fire that
will go with the wind and catch wher-
ever the grass is dry.
That this fire should have started i'll
Scotland is due to obvious causes.
Scotland is at once the most moral
and the most drunken part OF these
islands. Whisky aud the shorter
catechism are equally strongly in
trenched there, and now that they
have come to grips they will not give
each other quarter. II is John Knox
against Robert Burns, and ] predict
that in this battle the dour spirit OF
John Knox will win ultimately.
Nation Ahame with Issue
There has always been a powerful
Prohibition movement in Scotland,
and it is this movement which is now
being extended. Each town, each vii
lage, each ward has the power to go
dry, and Scotland is ahame with the
issue. No one who is familiar with
the devastation drink has caused in
that country, who has seen Aberdeen
or Glasgow in their cups or who
knows the effect OF the pernicious
glamour which the genius OF Burns
has thrown over the drink habit will
be astonished.

COURT DECISION
Will Not Affect Whisky in Bonded
Warehouses, Say Officials

The Commissioner OF Internal
Revenue. Prohibition Commissioner
Kramer, and other officials, hold that
the recent decision OF the Supreme
Court OF the United States on with
drawals OF liquor and transportation
by owners from one place TO another
will not affect whisky in bonded
warehouses. 1t was pointed out that
the language OF the decision was
specific in defining legitimate own
crship for legal use before the Vol
stead act became effective.
New regulations by the Treasury
Department. covering the transporta-
ton OF liquor under the recent de-
cision. arc now in the course of
preparation The Revenue Depart
ulent says that little whisky remains
in private storage which was stored
before the nation went dry. Consc-
quently there will be no release of
great quantities now. Whisky in
bonded warehouses will not be af-
fected by the decision, and owner
ship of certificate for such whisky
would not constitute ownership for
legitimate use before such possession
was made illegal.

they show an astonishing decrease OF

The relatively small decrease in

July, 1919, Immediately after Prohibi-
ton became effective, the Chicago
Germans and liquor dealers, as a mat
ter OF revenge, stirred up disastrous
negro race riots in Chicago which re-
suited i'll many killings.
The comparatively small number
OF arrests classed as other misde-
meanors' is accounted for in the sys-
tematic attempts OF the police during

INDIANA DRYS
Won Notable Victory at the Recent
Election

Ohio was not the only state that
administered a smashing defeat TO
the wet interests at the recent elec-
ton. In Indiana T. s. Senator Wat
son defeated Tom Taggart by 10000
votes. Watson is dry and Taggart
wet. Indiana also elected a dry cam
didatc for Governor over a wet can
didate by plurality of 10000.
All Is of the members of the Con-
gressional delegation from Indiana
voted for the Nolstead law. Ten OF
them were opposed by vets at the
recent election, but all IS we're re-
elected by pluralities ranging from
5,4o0 to 10000.
Both branches OF the Indiana Leg
islature elected this month are over
whelmingly dry, and law enforce
ment officials throughout the state
were generally successful at the polls.
