The House to-day ae,oL TO prevent
a brcaAdowr OF the proh.b!t:on en-
forcenlent organization between now
and july as the result o. the suspe.-
eion to- forgy days Of about 700 dry
agents because ot lack Of appropira-
tons.
After brief debate fun OF attae.s
on prohibition. Commissioned Kramer
and the Treasury Department, the
House. at the request of Representa-
tive Volstcad tMinn.), inserted in the
deficiency appropriation bill the sum
of 100000 Tor prohibition enforce
nnent work. This, if approved by the
Senate will enable the replacement Of
the prohibition force up to its "wal'
strength" OF 1900 men. The amend
nlent was approved BY vote or II

use only between now and July J..
when another appropria ton Will be.
come available.
Alarmed at statements OF Commits
sioner Kramer that the temporary sus-
pension Of the prohibition agents would
bring abou. a complete breakdown OF
enforcement work dry leaders of the
House met Mr.. Folstead and Wayne +.
Wheeler OF the Anti-Saioon League this
morning and determined to push through
the amendment. The additional appro-
priation makes a grand total for pro-
hibition enforcement work during the
year ending July ! OF s7,1oo,o0o. The
Treasury Department first asked for
s5..5o.ooo. which was reduced TO $500
600. Last March $500. 900 additional
was asked and S1,400.O0e granted.
The debate brought charges from the
Democratic side that some one high
in the Treasury Department" desiring
the Gripping o. the prohibition en-
forcement organization. prevented Mr..
Kramer from asking Congress for an
additional appropriation of 100000 SO
the dry agents would not have to be
reduced. No formal estimate for ad-
ditional funds was submitted to the
House Appropriations Committee.
Nr. Nolstead said the additional APP
preparation was made necessary because
IN the first deficiency bill for the pres
cnt Year the Prohibition Commissioner
was given only si.400.0o0 when he asked
70. $780, 900.
Cha irman Good (Iowa) Of the Appro-
priatiors Committee said Nr. Eranis:'
should have been dismissed from office
and fined, because he violated the law
prohibiting deficiencies.
'lt was Mr.. I<ramer's duty to appor-
ton the money by monthly or other
alotments so there should not be
deficiency in one part of the year." said
Mr.. Good.

Wet Articles in Magazines

Nearly all OF the popular magazines
in this country are published in the
east Most OF the popular magazine
writer's in this country live in or near
New York City. To some extent this
may explain the fact that many mag
azine articles are appearing in which
arguments against the Eighteenth
Amendment arc being given wide cir
cuation. Golfers Weekly. on Sep
tembcr II contained an article by
Samuel Hopkins Adams entitled, "My
Bootlcggcr" In this the writer
makes it appear that lawlessness rcla-
tive to liquor selling is very extensive,
apparently unprevcntablc, and that
Prohibition represents the will OF a
small minority. The Literary Digest
of September II contains two long
articles unfavorable to Prohibition.
In one "moonshine' is blamed for
trouble in the mining districts Of
West Virginia and i'll the other Dean
Inge OF St. Paul's Church in London
S quoted at great length in opposition
to Prohibition. These articles illus
trate the present tendency OF maga-
zines as we'll as newspapers to give
the wet viewpoint to their readers
Uncle Sam Versus Uncle Sam
One of the shrewdist and most ef-
fective propaganda schemes being
used at present by the vets is the cir
culation OF parts OF the Congressional
! Record containing wet speeches. The
fight against the beer bill is being
made not merely to delay the passage
of this needed enforcement measure
but also to give the vets ammunition
for future fights. Speeches by Sena-
tor Reed in opposition to the anti
beer bill are already being sent out
broadcast from Washington. Doubt
less these are being carried free by the
government While technically this
is permissible it nevertheless does not
seem right that the United States

however. gives assurance that the
only danger III the present situation
is that the drys may become disin-
terested in the future OF Prohibition
while large numbers with 10 dry con-
vietions may be made active enemies
OF the dry law through misleading
wet publicity. \ large proportion of
the matter appearing in newspapers
and magazines Is simply personal
opinion. Very few actual facts are
put forth in opposition to the dry law.
Enforcement agents and officials arc
quoted to the effect that the law can
not be enforced But these arc in tho
minority. and their views are not
backed up by facts. Preachers are
! quoted against the law but they are
the startling exception and their views
are in direct disregard ot we'll known
facts. Drys should remember that
the actual results OF enforced Prohibit
tion are simply immeasurably benc-
fetal; that Prohibition was adopted
by the greatest popular support ever
given any amendment; that the vets
are using their full resources in an
attack against the law in the hope of
restoring beer and wine and eventu-
ally repeating the Eighteenth Amend
ment An active defense of Prohibi-
ton will keep the law out OF danger.
Drys should vote for dry candidates,
insist on enforcement by the regular
constituted authorities, and defend the
law whenever and wherever it is at
tackled. If they do this Prohibition
is safe.

Clear Purpose Apparent

In the vast and confusing mass OF
publicity antagonistc to Prohibition
number OF things are clearly appar-
cnt They arc: That the vets viii
make terrific 6gnt to nominate and
elect wet majority to the nest Con
gress and TO the Legislatures OF var
Gus states.
That propaganda intended to show
Prohibition to be not enforceable Is
now being followed by we'll planned
propaganda designed to make people
believe that the Eighteenth Amend
ment is unpopular
That there is no substantial toun-
dation for the publicity upon which
attacks against the Eighteenth
Amendment are based
The American issue. [volume] (Westerville, Ohio) 1912-19??, 1921-10-07

Because they reach millions and
are read daily the newspaper, are
most effective in the wet campaign 10
prejudice the public against the
Eighteenth Amendment Critical edi-
torials cleverly raise doubts about the
possibility OF enforcement and insn-
uate that because OF the amendments
uupopularity beer and wine should
be permitted. News stories giving
lengthy quotation, from opponents of
Prohibition are 50 written as to make
the law seem unpopular Attacks
against the law are telcgraphcd al
over the country by news agencies
while public statements or interviews
favorable 10 the amendment and lis
enforcement seldom are permitted TO
appear i'll the public press. While thi,
may be justified from a news stand
point. just As a murder is news and
law obedience is not. 1t nevertheless
gives the impression that the amend
ment lacks the support OF popular
opinion. Newspaper cartoons. lea
ture articles. letters from the people
photographs, and even jokes all uu-
friendly TO Prohibition help create
the illusion that the Eighteenth
