of these. bills provided for the
strengthening of the enforcement law,
while the remaining two-thirds were
aimed at modification of the national
prohibition act to permit the manu-
facture and sale of beer and light
wines. Bills and resolutions were also
introduced to provide for national
referendum and for state dc.ermina-
tion of alcoholic content. So much
time was consumed in the senate by
wet senator's reading into the recoro
wet speeches and wet arguments thai
finally the subcommittee of the ju-
dietary granted a hearing which was
expected to cover not only the pro-
posals of the vets but the Goff bills
and other bills for strengthening the
enforcement CODE Nearly three weeks
we're consumed with these hearings
and the record covers two large
volumes with total of 1860 pages
The testimony of the vets dealt very
largely with the violation of law
with charges of corruption and with
the express idea of proving that the
Volstead act could not be enforced
Each witness testified under oath

of the wet witnesses on their return
home were obliged to change their
testimony.
Testimony of the drys showed that
the testimony of the vets was drawn
entirely from wet centers in which
prohibition had never had chance,
that there were parts of the country
where prohibition is as well enforced
as any other law, that the failures
Of prohibition were due to lax en-
forcement and that notwithstanGlnls
imperfect enforcement prohibition had
resulted in better health, in moral
and financial gains. The drys rep
resented every part of the country
and every phase of organization IN
terested in prohibition. They were
subjected to oss-questioning py
Senator Reed and because their testi-
mony was carefully prepared, sub
stantiated by the facts no dry was
obliged to reverse himself on his
return home.
The best comment upon the testi~
mony of the opponents Of prohibition
was that not one of their bills was
reported favorably and the commit
tee declared the eighteenth amend
ment morally right and economically
wise. They did secure large pub
Iicity and Senator Reed brought oHt
much testimony favorable to the vets

Delegates from all the border states

The keynote address of the conference

Intoxicating liquors. What they are
aiming for is the repeal of the eight

end they are using the keenest STRAIT

the association against the prohibit
tion amendment is a naval man. The
activities of this and kindred organi-
cations have been deliberately and
skillfully planned Every move con-
nected Herewith has been given wide
publicity, every proposal on their part
has been for the purpose of driving
the wedge in little further. They
realize the value Of public opinion
in the enforcement of law. They
know that to make a change in the
law there must be public dissatisfac-
tion with the existing conditions.
That is the first step; hence a
supreme effort has been put forth
to minimize the accomplishments or
prohibition and to create dissatisfac-
ton with the law. Wet editorials
and cartoons, misleading headlines
and comments on the activities of
prohibition officials have all contri-
buted to this end. The activities,
however, have centred around four
plans: straw votes, congressional mod
ification of the Volstead act state
legislation and referenda and govern
ment control
Congressional modification of the
Volstead act was part of the STRAIT
egy. Approximately 100 measures
relating to some phase of the pro-
hibition of alcoholic liquors were In
troduced during the first session of
the 69th congress. About one-third

CATTLE SALES
REACH RECORD
MARK IN WEEK

During the past week more cattle
were sold through the California
Cattlemens association than during
any previous week since the co-opera-
tive marketing plan was started, over
a year and half ago.
There has been continual upward
trend in association sales for several
months, and during August more cattle
were handled than for any previous
month. September will, from all ap-
pearances, set new monthly record
A considerable number of new MEM.
bcrs are constantly being added to the
cooperative movement and the terri
tory in which the association operates
is now being extended to include New
Mexico, where many thousands of cattle
are now signed up. During August
and September over 10000 head of cat
tie were brought into the association in
Arizona, Nevada and New Mexico. More
California producers continue to place
their cattle under association control.

as CLEANED from newspaper clippings
was to the effect that the revelations
before the committee showed the
necessity for state enforcement codes
to assist the federal government IN
the enforcement of law, the neces-
sity for strengthening the Volstead
act in the manner recommended by
General Andrews and the crying need
for a campaign of eluca'ion which
will show the people the benefits t.
be derived from the observance of
law and the necessity for their CO.
operation in the election of officials
who will te true to their oath OF

state Legislation And The Refercnda
The next drive of the vets was
shown in their opposition to strength
ening state legislation and in their
putting over the plan for state refer
enda In New York state the bill
for state enforcement code passed
one branch of the legislature but
was defeated in the other. By the
combined efforts of all the democrats
and the few wet republican leaders
a referendum on the following ques-
tion was voted, to be passed upon
at the state election this fall:

States modify the federal act TO en-

Violation existed not only In this
country, but in England the laws for
dealing with the liquor traffic are
violated, in Norway and in Germany
there is trouble and in every nation
where the liquor traffic exists we
find that it is a violator of law.
Something more than the assertion
OF the leaders Of the association
against the prohibition amendment is
essential to convince us that the
liquor people would observe any law,
for it's restraint, even though the
alcoholic content of Intoxicating
liquors were raised.
We insist again that the slogans
of tight wines and beer" and
"liquors Notwithstanding in fact are
being used simply as wedge. That
point having been gained, the wedge
will be driven farther and farther
in and the same arguments that are
now used to get rid OF prohibition
will be used for a larger alcoholic
content and the final repeal of the
eighteenth amendment.
1t is interesting that the demand
for larger alcoholic content is always
accompanied by the statement mo
