What the Current Magazines Ere Saying About Prohibition
and Law Enforcement
(Reviewed by Emma L. TranseaD

Disregarding the difference between
the two which, is as wide as the east from
the west, or as self-seeking from unseh-
ishness, Golfers finds only similarity:
Politically the Anti-Saloon League
and its allies to-day occupy q position
fairly comparable to that held by the
saloon men Is years ago. Then the
liquor dealers thought they could not
be beaten. To-day the Anti-Saloon
League imagines that it is invincible.
The saloon men were routed because
the public would no longer endure the
abuses of the old liquor trade. The
prohibition group Of today will be scat
tered just as soon as public opinion is
convinced that their oostinancy is
standing in the way of real reform.
The narroWness of this view is appar-
ent. About the time it was being penned
the leaders and representatives of 81
temperance organizations. 80 besides the
Anti-Saloon League, were sending dele
cation to the new President to assure him
of their confidence and cooperation in
carrying out what they believed to be the
will of a great majority of the people for
the enforcement of law enacted for the
protection of the American home. The
millions there represented have the evi
dence of their constituencies as well as OF

with the bootlegger are responsible Tor
violation of the law viii be discussed by
the district attorneys of the state at
conference which Joseph Z. Warner, at
torney general, has called for April 6,
says the Christian Science Monitor
Mr.. Warner also said that citizens in
terested in law observance may be asked
not from fear of penalty but from de-
sire to do their part as good citizens-to
sign pledge cards that they will not take
drink of Intoxicating liquor or violate
the law in any other way for thirty days.
He believes this would give an index of
the support for the dry campaign. If
adopted, the plan may be inaugurated
about July or on Constitution Day in
September.
Mr.. Warner said he intends to hold con-
ferences with the police chiefs and state
police Mr.. Warner is quoted as saying:
Much has been said in high places in
extenuation of the yiolator of the law 1t
is high time that the rights of the gen.
eral public receive attention. The issue
is between the Commonwealth and GRIM
inal wealth"
The recommendation for action against
customers who make the market for the
liquor traffic came from Gleason L.
Archer, dean of the Suffolk Law School.
He pointed out that a long established
law of the state makes an accessory to a
crime equally guilty with the principal
and subject to the same penalty

THE LAND OF AUTOS
One Auto For Every Four and
Fraction of Population; Enpha-
sizes Need For Continued
Sobriety

In prohibition United States there is
one automobile for every four and
fraction of the population, counting men,
women and children while in the rest of
the world there is one automobile for
every siXty-four persons, counting men
women and children.
This shows the prosperity and economic
enterprise which attends prohibition and
its effect on the lives of the people Of this
country. The fact also points TO the need
of continued and growing sobriety Oh the
part OF the people of the United States,
for which the constant increase in the
number Of automobiles on the streets and
highways comes the increased necessity
for clear brains and steady hands to
prevent accidents and loss of life and
property.

The total abstinence pledge singing
campaign inaugurated by DR.. Sheldon, of
Topeka, Kansas, which is being spon-
sored by The AMERICAN ISSUE is making
wonderful progress. This is most i'm
portant phase of the educational work
being undertaken by the Anti-Saloon
League and other dry organizations. One
sure method of destroying the bootleg
traffic in this country is to destroy the
patronage of the bootlegger. II there
were no buyers bootleggers would go out
of business tomorrow.

only sign this total abstinence promise
yourself but that you get others to sign
it. This week has brought some interest
