Indications are that the Women's

election to be held next month 1t
is understood letters are being sent
to each candidate for election, in
quir!ng as to his position in the
matter of again submitting to the
people of Alaska the question of pro-
hibition.
Two such letters have been re-
ceiyed here by w. F.. Britt, candi-
date for Senator to the Legislature,
from Sitka and Ketchkan. The let
tiers are similar, that from Sitka be-
ing as follows:
Sitka, Alaska, Oct. 81, 1922.
Hon. VIM. Britt, Juneau, Alaska.
Dear Sir: On behalf of the W. c.
r. o. of Sitka, / am instructed TO
inquire concerning your position in
the matter of again submitting to
the people Of Alaska the question Of
your election to the Legislature.
Kindly favor us with an immediate
reply.
Very respectfully,

Secretary, Protein.

| lowing reply:

Lillian B. Drake, Secretary w. c. T.
| u Sitka. Alaska
| Dear Madam: l have your favor
| OF. 21st in regard to my position in
the matter of again submitting the
question OF prohibition to the people
| Of Alaska must admit the matter
has not entered my mind BECAUSE the
| Alaska Legislature has no jurisdic-
ton in the matter and il the Alaska
prohibition law should be abolished
we would, however, be under the Fed
| eral prohibition law. the Eighteenth
Amendment to our Constitution, and
believe the prohibition is in the
United States to stay.
If you do not mind. l will briefly
state my views on the subject: In
| the evolution of mankind we have
| learned to do away with various
things harmful to our progress and
! to our fellow beings We have done
! away with burning people at the
stake for witchcraft; we have done
away with serfdom and slavery, and
we are trying to do away with the
| free use of Mr. Alcohol because we
know he undermines our efficiency
and our capacity for making happy
/ homes, which | consider the fOunda-
! ton of any sound society. The
! trouble with us is that we got our
1 prohibition too hurriedly and not pro.
! gressively Hence the opposition and
1 reservation to substitutes OF poi.
| sonous mixtures and "moonshine."
! After all, mankind is very much
i like a baby 1t must go through all
i the ''don'ts" before 1t becomes use
i ful and fitting in the surroundings
i If you wean baby too abruptly
!! it gets i'll; if you do not teach man
kind the "don'ts" successfully it will
j not obey. and grab for substitutes to
It's own detriment. 1t hurts the
present generation to be deprived OF
IT'S so-callcd social pleasure" but
the next generation will know little
about it and be happier and more
efficient thereby. My boy will not
i know what beer or whisky is. per,
haps. and be healthier and ADLER
thereby.
! I hope this will explain my atti'
tude fairly well You may use this
/ letter for whatever purpose you like
With sincere respect for your in
qu!ry | am
