Declaring that the prohibition
amenampnt is the storm center
now OF the Constitution, Senator
Bor&h continued:
1T is the Constitution after
years of agitation and discussion,
after 80 states had already adopt
ed statewide prohibition laws, af-
ter long debates in the Congress,
after consideration by the State
legislatures, and after ratification
by AS states of the Union. Surely
no one can candidly claim that this
amendment is in the Constitution
by accident or rs a result OF undue
haste. 20
AZ another juncJure he re-
marked:
"Prohbitionist, or anti-prohibi-
zionist, sober CIR drunk, we ought
as citizens be loyal to our common
country and be willing to support
the law SO Icing as it is the law
With the observation that 1.-The
guarantees Of the Constitution are
the most sacred guarantees in be
half of civil liberty ever placed in
any instrument Of government,
Senator Bcrah declared he was OF
the opinion that If any one provi-
sion of the Constitution could be
REGARDED as more vital to the cause
of freedom than any other, 1t would
be the first amendment, which
guarantees free speech, q free

Although Reid was no novice with the gloves, having been for aong time a boxing enthusiast, there were nevertheless many tricks for him to mastor, and to penfcct his role he went through daily course of rigid training for several weeks prior to the filming of the fight scenes.

when Managing Editor Victor Bar

There was no explanation as to why
the censorship had so suddenly been

A quiet move is on foot throughout

measure.
Mr.. Coolidge did not make any
promises.

ton to adopt a Liberal" attitude on
this question will not end at that.
however. Dyer gave notice that he
would be back at the White House
later to discuss his bill again when
he has completed work on it.
In addition, other members of Con-
gress and organizations interested in
getting the present prohibition laws
liberalized will lay before Mr.. Cool
idge. before Congress meets. a huge
petition, signed by many citizens in
states. in support Of beer and wine
program.
The object of this is to show the
administration that there is a great
popular demand for such legislation.
1t will be suggested that this senti-
ment should not be ignored with a
Presidential campaign coming on.
To counter the move of the beer
and wine advocates, dry forces have
been preparing their own data on
public sentiment and have been
urging that citizens petition Com
