PREPARING
FOR APRIL II
Liquor Journal Urges VETS to Work
for Wet Candidates

Nov Get Ready for the Primaries.
Whichever way the pendulum
swings at Washington, even to the
destruction OF the Eighteenth Amend
ment and the Nolstead act, Illinois is
still a dry state and will remain so
until succeeding legislature repeals
the Prohibition law, even more dras-
tic than the Nolstead law
This law must be repealed and the
only chance will be the defeat OF the
men who voted for Prohibition and
replacing them by men who will favor
the repeal OF the same.
"All liberal minded men and women
must get under some leadership and
prepare for action. The time is short
between now and April and there
must be some quick action.
Here arc the men who voted for
the Prohibition law. Sec if they rep
resent your district and then go for
them"
The above. followed by the roll call
vote on the Illinois Prohibition act
appears in the Champion OF Fair Play
dated December IS. 1o21. The same
article contains the following with ref
erence to the coming congressional
primaries on April IL:
Senator James Hamilton Lewis has
been on visit to his old home in the
South and he reports as follows:
"Mr. Lewis said that the tide
against the National Prohibition laws
in the East and South is such that the
states in those sections will elect con
gressmen in the next election on moth
ing but i-Prohibition issues and
that from dozen to twenty would be
in the House for nothing else but to
repeal the Prohibition laws.
I'VE in the West must give help
ing hand and there are a few dry
congressman in the state of Illinois
whose services could be dispensed

STRATION AWAITED BY
THE WORLD

The Christian Century,
II the great majority OF
Americans want Prohibition, in
fhe long run there is no way to
keep them from having it. Ii
Prohibition is wrong there is
no surer way to bring a reaction
against it than to have bone
dry Prohibition. In other sec
ions OF the Anglo-Saxon world
there is no topic SO engagingly
interesting as that OF Prohibi-
tion in the United States. The
people wonder how it is going
to work. \ Jew years OF suc-
cessful demonstration in the
United States will put the whole
world OH a Prohibition basis.
And President Harding's pre-
diction that liquor will some day
cease to be even memory will
come true.

SETTING A BAD EXAMPLE
(By Arthur Brisbane in the

tBy Arthur Brisbane III the
(Herald and Examiner)
An able, earnest young busi-
ness man asked yesterday. "Why
don't you write editorials de
nonncing those that supply poi
sonous whisky TO young peo-
ple?" Only the man with
money can get spirits now, but
there is much drunkenness
among young people, and men
of means arc largely responsible
for it. The law is made con-
temptiblc by those that should
set a good example. Do men
OF mature years realize that rid
iculing one law makes other
laws contemplate: When they
flout the Prohibition law before
the young the latter may COLI
clude that laws protecting prop
erty are also silly.

Answers Arguments of Wet
Orator From Chicago
OLD ARGUMENTS USED
BY HORACE BRIDGES
League Attorney Gives Unanswerable
Facts to Support Law
DRY Law RESULTS PRESENTED

In a joint debate before the cor
temporary club in Philadelphia re
Gently, Wayne B. Wheeler answered
the argument Of Mr. Horace Bridges
of Chicago against the Eighteenth
Amendment.
Prohibition Debate Before Contem-
porary Club
THE Eighteenth Amendment and
the National Prohibition act to en-
force it, are based on two sound prin-
ciples OF government said Mr.
Wheeler in Philadelphia Dec. l..
"Ihe first il, that the people have
an inherent right to better their con-
dtons whenever the legally oonsti-
tuted majority desire to do so in the
manner. provided by law. This right
to protect ones self from evil and
danger was the right OF the individual
before VIC had society.
Justice Mclean of the Supreme
Court expressed it as follows:
1t is 2 power essential to sell
preservation and exists in every
organized community. 1t is in
deed the law of nature and is pos
sessed by man in his individual
capacity.
The American issue. [volume] (Westerville, Ohio) 1912-19??, 1921-12-30
No Right to Exist

The second proposition or prin-
ciple follows logically from the first,
to-wit., any recognized evil like the
liquor traffic that menaces the morals
and safety OF the people has no right
to. exist, and when it does it is by
sufferance and not by right. The
United States Supreme Court is not
temperance society, but this is what
it said of the liquor traffic years ago:
The statistics OF every state
show a greater amount of misery
and crime attributed to these re-
tail liquor shops than to any other
source.
THE court then concluded its great
decision with these words:
There is no inherent right in a
citizen OF state or OF the United
States to sell Intoxicating liquor.
Law Not Slipped Over"
Every argument ever conceived by
the human mind, including those pre-
sented by Mr.. Bridges, were consid
cred and were held insufficient by the
largest jury that ever decided a great
public question in this nation. No
one well informed will say it was
Slipped over" because it took two
thirds OF Congress to submit and
three-fourths of the states to ratify it.
1t is norS difficult TO change our Con-
stitution than any Constitution in ex-
istence. Fewer than 200 state Sena-
tors in Is states can prevent all
amendment from being adopted. If
our opponents think that it is an easy
task let them try it and they will re-
wise their opinion about anybody slip
ping over a constitutional amendment
on the people of the United States.
Warning to Citizens
"This amendment is here to stay
as long as the government stands.
No one denies that citizen may give
reasons why it should be repealed or
changed, but as long as it is in the
Constitution it should be obeyed by
every loyal citizen. To constantly
nag at it, however, when it is mani
fest that it can not be changed, sim
ply gives encouragement to rum ban
dts, who take the law i'll their own
hands as they did recently in Balti-
more. The judges of the United
States knew what they were talking
about when they adopted this warn
ing recently to the American people.
Reverence for law and en-
forcement of law depend mainly
upon the ideals and customs of
those who occupy the vantage
ground OF life i'll business and So
ciety. The people of the United
States, by solemn constitutional
and statutory enactment have un-
dertaken to suppress the age-long
evil of the liquor traffic. When
for the qualification of their ap-
petites or the promotion of their
interests lawyers, bankers, great
merchants and manufacturers and
social leaders, both men and wo-
men, disobey and scoff at this law;
or any other law, they are aiding.

y ing mob violence, robbery and :
