WHAT "wETs" AND "DRYs" THESE DAYS, ARE TELLING EACH OTHER IN HALLS OF CON-
 GREsss ABOUT PROHIBITION AND ENFORCEMENT

the expense of fewer courts, fewer po- licemen, and the jails would be prae- ticalTg empty. Such has not proven to be, the case.
 Besides the facts which I have stated, the eighteenth amendment has developed the ubiquitour bootlegger, which did not prevail before, when only. the States had prohibition.
 ''fi believe that one of the worst features of the eighteenth amendment is that4it has created nation of law breakers from those in high stations to low stations, and; many of the Con- gressmen who vote for prohibition, from accounts that l read in the press, are breakers of the prohibition law themselves. The jurors who, sit in the courts are, understand, vio- latoEs, and what trayesty it is for men to, try others for breaking the laws that they themselves violate. The whole situation is intolerable, and it seems to me our legislators should recognize this fact and make a change that would save us from the enormous expense that our Govern ment is experiencing, and also from a law that is,dundermining the respect that all'citizens should have for the law of the land.
