is the modification of the Volstead law Within Ger
tain limits she says she will be guided by that vote,
and the limits sufficiently vague to satisfy the
most ardent enemy of prohibition. How modified?
The proposition, worded for the ballot does not
say. She does not say. Friends would be glad to
see the law modified by making it stronger Enc
mics would like to see it changed by making it
weaker Either might vote in the affirmative at the
referendum What can any vote on that proposition
mean? Only Mrs. Mccormick can say insofar as
her course in the senate would be involved.
To what extent will the result of the referendum
on repeal affect her vote for modification? Let us
put it concretely. Suppose the result for re-
peal is in the affirmative but the senate refuses to
bring the issue to vote if does the proposition
fails, it would What then? The liquoriteS,
baked in the effort for repeal will ask for such mod
ication of the law, will permit the return of in
toxicatng beverages despite the amendment. What
will the lady do then? She does not say.
Yet, who does not know that such procedure is in
accord with the cardinal principles of cur oppo-
nents Does she intend to go the limit with her
proliquor friends? Repeal is the high brow method
modification, emasculation and notification consti
tute the low brow procedure The low brows are in
the majority in the camp of those who seek the de-
struction Of our nationwide prohibition policy.
Prohibitionists would be SIMPLE indeed to support
her in the belief that finally, she would break with
her allies after the promises she has publicly
made.

nees. They have financial resources which Judged
by recent revelations suggest close connections with
the lawleSs underworld, so dominant in Chicago at
this moment.
In the proposed referendum the ignorance of our
opponents is their strength; and the intelligence of
our friends is their weakness. The former can be
made to believe that the result, if favorable will
bring back the beverages they desire. It gives an
opportunity to the opposition to make itself vocal
to voice protest against policy which interferes
with Self1ShneSS and greed It is an easy task for
the enemies of prohibition to get out the opposition
vote.
On the other hand, our people know that the ref
erendum binds no official, that it changes no policy
that it does not alter punctuation mark in any
law that 1t can have no legal effect There has been
sanity behind the refusal of prohibitonists to be
drawn into sham battles.
Mrs Mccormick has elected to say that while she
Is dry, she will vote wet if in this unfair referendum
the enemies of prohibition can muster a majority of
the votes
She pledges herself to support resolution to sub
NIT to the several states the question of repeal of the
Eighteenth Amendment if the proposed pro-lquer
referendum in Illinois goes that way. If that were
ALL the friends of prohibition might rest secure in
the thought that in six years it would not be prob
able that she would get chance to vote for such
proposition, if elected senator from Illinois But
she proposes something worse than that.

What should they do who believe in law and or
der? This is a poignant question for the editor OF
this paper who is writing this pronouncement He
is citizen of, and voter in Illinois He must lace
the issue editorially and personally Here Is the
answer
Prohibitionists should bring out candidate who
represents their views and support him or her as
the may be- with the last vote which can be Sc
cured next November. They should not be deferred
by the vail that such course will elect James Ham-
ton Lewis, an avowed wet. Let it be So II betrayal
is to be portion let it be at the hands of one we
have not trusted rather than by another whom we
have honored and aided.
No time should be lost. prohibition candidate
should be found at and campaign started
Let Mrs Mccormick and her kind learn once for all
that the people of Lncolns state will not put up
with notification.
Candidates for congress from prohibition districts,
who announce that they will be guided by the liquor
referendum, should be given dose of the same
medicine Let be established in Illinois that state
conventions cannot come between congressional
candidates and the people in their districts who
must furnish the votes TO elect them
Mrs Mccormick spent quarter of a million
dollars in securing her nomination. That was
enough to ALLEVIATE every honest prohbitionlst 1t
seems not to hurt her with the iquortes. 1t Will

She has betrayed the good people of Illinois. Let
