Nicholas Murray Butler

The Issue does not take Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler of
Columbia University, very seriously. He is getting
great deal attention than either he his
ments prohibition deserve. DIR. Butler has always
been and has spoken against prohibition every
opportunity He is different in his attitude and
not much different in his speeches than he long be-
fore the 18th Amendment adopted There is strong
suspicion that Dr. Butler is shrewdly attacking prohb
ton please certain groups whose favor he courts As
for Dr. Buffers arguments-here is nothing in them.
But for his high position he would get very little aen
ton. DR. Butler for example, that it is absolutely
impossible to enforce prohibition and in the very
speech he declared that New York hotels absolutely
dry If prohibition be made work in New York
hotels, why not anywhere? Dr. Butler declares that pro-
hibton is failure and that the 18th Amendment will
be repealed in five years No student displaying such
dense ignorance of American Government would be adj
med student in Buffers university or in any other
Thirteen prevent the repeal of the 18th Amend
ment With 80 states dry by state action and with wo-
suffrage, who but Butler would be wild enough to
say that the 18th Amendment be removed from the
Constitution in five years time Perhaps Butler mis-
quoted really meant say that the Volstead Act
would be repealed in five years This, of is

LAW WILL PREVAIL
BY Mrs. Anthony Wayne Cook,
President General of the Daughters of the
American Revolution.

PRESIDENT General oil the Daughters OF the
American Revolution
After vigorous effort lasting more than SO
years, the Eighteenth Amendment to the Federal
Constitution ratified by majority of the peo-
pie in this country so willed. In my opinion that
amendment will never be repealed. Loyal respect
Tor that amendment is the duty of every citizen.
Nor can any law be fouted without serious con-
sequences to the citizen and to the state If law
essness is the increase in this country it is be-
we have relaxed our respect for the law. The
security OF citizenship rests on law enforce
ment. Nowhere in the world has law had greater
native majesty than in America. From colonial
times, through the winning of the west, and the
founding of the inland empire, Americans have
spected justice and abided by law Law kept pace
with the pioneers, and ordered the lives of God
fearing and women who wrested national
domain from the wilderness
"The law of the land'-what more compelling
phrase is there in national lexicon? The law
must not be Knocked in this way by the willful
selishness of the few. The law is the sovereign
will of the people, and it shall prevail.

to their By various means and methods they are
cndeavoring to mould public opinion particularly among
influential women, against prohibition. In circles
they have made dangerous Roadway. 1t is important
that wet propaganda ndustrious1y promoted among

ence in clubs and organizations we'll in social and
private conversation should be prepared to de-
fend the dry law The Issue again suggests that all

may be secured from the Women's National Committee

Education relative to prohibition the greatest need
of the day AS announced in last number, the Anti
Saloon League will its facilities to the utmost to
Tighten the public relative to the 18th Amendment and
its enforcement. But the facilities that be used by
the League directly entirely inadequate for the task
that should be done. Preachers in their pulpits and

one book in particular prohibition Coming Going"
by Elton Raymond Shaw This book is not only very
interesting discussion of the entire prohibition problem
and authoritative history of the prohibition movement
but is also encyclopedia of just those facts that
every preacher and teacher should have hand This
book is published by the Shaw Publishing Co., Berwyn,
Ill., and may be obtained direct if it not found in
book One of the greatest tragedies is silence by
friends of prohibition when the 18th Amendment under
attack by its enemies This silence is usually because the
facts are not easily available One feature of Mr. Shaws
book is long list of questions most frequently asked
about prohibition and the these questions
With this book for reference the dry side in any discus
sion can be effectively presented in the local press the
public school or the pulpit There is greater duty
resting upon teachers and preachers in these days than
help bring the truth about the fight against the liquor
traffic to people that this truth may
and eventually help the whole world.
