sc subcommittee today ~

women members Cf Congress
Differing with other women who
have upheld and praised condi-
tions created BY the Volstead law
Mrs. Norton told the committee
today that prohibition IS corrupt-
ing the youth of the country,
destroying home life. increasing
the drug habit. and killing peo-
ple' with its poisons.
Its q disastrous failure, It
cannot be enforced, and it should
be nodified," declared Mrs. Nor
ton.
Deceived BY Prohibition
II believe great many men
and women indorssd prohibition
when it became q law of this
country with the absolute convic-
ton that it would promote tenn
perance, said Mrs. Norton. Many
s1f these same men and women are
now working for q repeal OF the
law they then advocated, because
they realize it has been a failure
and has set back the work ac-
cOmplished through many years to
make our country temperate.
Prohibition and temperance have
no relation to each other. You
must have public opinion behind
a law to make it effective.
.eThe solution lies in q referen-
dunn to the people and allow them
to decide definitely whether or not
they are In favor Of prohibition.
Mrs. Norton declared that pro-
hibition had brought widespread
use Of drugs.
"The woman who used to suffer
from a drunken husband, now suf-
fers from q crazy husband, who
turned to drugs because he cannot
get good liquor" she said. That
was true in three cases out of 15
which / personally investigated.
She also declared the morals OF
Americas youth were being destroyed
by prohibition.
"She also told of poisonous liquor
being sold in Government veterans
hospitals, some veterans being killed.
AS for the dry claims Of prosperity
under prohibition. Mrs. Norton asked:
az would like toYask which Is moro
important to keep the feet of a child
warm or to safeguard its character
and perhaps its very life"
Representative John ]. Kindred,
CD of New York, urged nodifica-
ton of the dry law to permit ATS
per cent beer. Such beer would not
be Intoxicating, he said, and would
aid enforcement of prohibition.
Gerald p. Murphy, chief prohibi-
