NARCOTIC BILL
CRITICISMS
ANSWERED

The antinarcotic bills intro

Of the entire medical and allied
professions.

citation. He Said::.
"AS the proposed legislation

Of the United States have
nothing to fear from this Iegis-
latiOn."
Dictatorship Charged
An editorial in the current IS

bills as an attempt to set up Q

two-thirds, believe prohibition has
not worked out as they said or
hoped. They believe the system
has failed.
1T is true that q great many

neve is the sentiment Of their
districts and they hold 1t Is
their duty to do 30.
II think q secret vote on a rea-
sonable resolution to give both
sides the opportunity Of placing
this question before the Amer

easily carry in the House.
THE great number, believe,
are convinced that the ultimate
solution Of the problem-and the
true road to temperance-is to
give the States control Of the
liquor traffic, subject to reStric-
tons against the interstate move
ment Of liquor into dry States"
Mrs. Norton is Just as vehement
in her defense Of members who
vote dry solely because their dis.
tricts are dry, as she is sincere In
her belief that prohibition has
failed.
TT hurts me to hear them
criticized" she said.
Mrs. Norton has emerged in
the present session as one of the
leading anti-prohibition figures in
the House. But she is q mod
crate.
Just Wants Test
II believe prohibition has
failed and a majority Of the
people Of the country realize it"
she said. THE drys say the
people would vote dry. I have
introduced an amendment to the
constitution to provide for O
popular vote. Let's test out the
sentiment, and then abide by it,"
There is widespread sentiment
against prohibition, she said, be-
cause it has invaded what people
consider 1.-The inalienable right to
personal liberty"
II have seen something Of
prohibition, she said. II was
president Of day nursery
organization in Jersey City where
children Of working women were
cared for during the day. I
learned something Of the ploh
lem as it affects these families.
And I cannot say that have
seen anything which convinces
me that prohibitions is n success"

Smarting under the constant

forces, congressional drys rallied

rampant, but defend enforcement

answer the speech recently made
by Representative Schafer R.) Of
Wisconsin, who declared the Bible
approved moderate drinking.
With Representative LaGuardia

IN answer for the vets, q free-for-
all debate was predicted.
SprOul to Interpret Christ
The drys generally have been
content to remain silent in the
face Of wet activity In both
branches Of Congress. Beedy, one
Of the leading anti-prohibition
speakers, took the floor recently to-
defend the Coast Guard after the
killing OF rum runners in Long
Island Sound.
Representative Sprouts ire was
aroused BY the Shafer speech. He
announced the title of his own adj
