Hoover, in a letter read before the
International Convention of the Wo-

placed upon the individual citizen
responsibility for the success of the
prohibition law and declared that too
many citizens have come to rely
wholly on the Government to enforce
abstinance while forgetting the indi-
vidual benefits of temperance.
President Hoover's letter said:
please present my greetings TO
the convention of the National Wo-
mems Christian Temperance Union.
81 am daily impressed with the
great need for extended work of edu-
cation in the moral, physical and
economic benefits of temperance.
Since the adoption of the prohibition
amendment too many people have
come to rely wholly upon the strong
arm of the law to enforce abstl-
nence, forgetting that the cause OF
temperance has its strong founda-
tions in the conviction of the 1ndl-
vidual of the personal value to him
self of temperance in all things"
