Prohibition LawH Law Is Repealed Illinois Will Become Rendezvous
of Boolegge4s of Other States

uor traffic would be nisled only to be
criminals.
Second The repeal of this law would
be productive Of lawlessness. The prohi-
billions of the Eighteenth Amendment
would still remain. The state could not
license or in any way regulate or provide
for the legal sale of beverage liquors I'M
der police regulations. Illinois would be-
come the rendezvous Of the rum-runners,
the bootleggers, the moonshiners, and
liquor bandits of other states who would
feel that they could operate their ne
farious activities from within her con-
fines with less danger Of molestation from
local officers. The congregation of these
criminals within the borders of the state,
in addition to those already in the state,
with such a dense population, would con-
Stitute menace to the safety and Sc
curity of every law-abiding citizen such
as would exist in no other state in the
American Union.
Third The hundreds of police officers,
Sheriffs and conStableS Of the state of Il
1inois would be compelled to look on the
scenes of lawleSSness carried on in viola
ton of the constitution of the United
States and would be impotent to raise a
hand to suppress it, except through the
exercise of such incidental power as they
possess by reason of authority conferred
in Sections and IS of the national pro-
hibition act making Section 1914 Of the
Revised Statutes of the United States ap-
plicable. Illinois would be placed in the
position of having extended an invitation
to one of the most vicious criminal ele-
ments known to society and guaranteeing
to them that they would have immunity

from interference by officers of the state.
II would not mean return TO the former
system of license control, but simply
status of no control or regulation.
Fourth. The withdrawal of the active
participation of the local constabulary in
the enforcement of this provision of the
constitution would be a tremendous con-
tribution to the cause of lawlessness and
members of the legislature responsible
for such conditions would undoubtedly be
held accountable by the people of the
state for the results which would surely
follow.
Fifth. The repeal of this law would re-
suit in a loss of revenue to the state
Every single police officer, constable, or
sheriff holding Office under the present
law would have to be retained if the state
law were repealed, but the people of the
state would be deprived of their services
to effectively prevent the sale of liquor
most prolific cause of laWleSsness. And
all of the fines, forfeited bonds, and re-
ceipts from confiscated property which
are now being received by the state and
spent for the benefit of the people of ILL
nois would be lost. individuals who would
be prosecuted for violations of the Eight
zenith Amendment would pay their fines
to the federal courts.
Sirth. The fact that those who are
against prohibition are for the repeal of
the state law, while its retention is
sought by those who want the law en-
forced is a practical test which almost
incontestably proves that an effective
state law means enforcement of prohibi-
tion-repeal means its break down, which
the enemies of prohibition desire.

Section of the Eighteenth Amendment
to the constitution of the United States
prohibits the manufacture, sale, transpor-
tatIon, importation and expectation of in
toxicating liquors for beverage purposes
Section 2 provides:
THE CONGRESS AND THE SEVERAL,
STATES SHALL HAVE CONCURRENT
POWER TO ENFORCE THIS ARTICLE
BY APPROPRIATE LEGISLATION.
The constitution of the United States
puts exactly the same obligation on the
states to enforce prohibition that it does
on congress. 1t is mistaken idea that
there is a primary obligation on the fed
eral government and only a secondary one
on the states. The obligation is Identical
In the case of Rhode Island v. Palmer,
reported in volume 253 u. S. Report, page
1884, the United States supreme court said
that Section 2 of the Eighteenth Amend
ment does not enable congress or the sew
eral states to defeat or thwart prohibition
but only to enforce it by appropriate
means
Manifestly, the object of the Eighteenth
Amendment was to secure for the enforce
ment of prohibition the assistance and CO.

does not enable congress or the several

Thus, Mr.. President there was written
into the fundamental law, into the charter
under which we live, an inhibition against
the manufacture or sale of Intoxicating
liquors, and that binds the congress of the
United States, the several legislatures of
the different states, the courts of the coun-
try, and each and every particular indi-
vidual in the country; and so long as it re-
mains in the constitution it is the duty of
the several legislatures, of the congress, of
the courts, of all agencies of government,
of all public officials and of individuals to
obey and in their respective places in Or
ganized society to assist in the enforce
ment and unfolding of the constitution. It
imposes a responsibility and an obligation
which neither the congress nor the state
legislatures can h0norably Sh1rk or in de-
cency pass on to some other body It binds
every official and every citizen, and so long
as it remains there it is the first duty of
good citizenship to respect it and seek to
uphold it..
We are noaU, Mr.. President, engaged in

No one contends that those who are OPP
posed to prohibition have not the right to
carry on campaign for the purpose of
changing the constitution. Any citizen or
any body of citizens who believe that this
is an unwise policy, that it is a policy
which cannot be sustained principle
which cannot be enforced, are not subject

It has been about eight years since we
amended the constitution of the United
States and Incorporated in it what is
known as the Eighteenth Amendment.
That aineG1dTslezlt was not adopted, as is SO
often said, in haste or without due consid-
Grafton and elaboration upon the part of
the people of the United States. For some
fifty years the subject of prohibition had
been under discussion throughout the
country, and, if I remember correctely, at
the time of the ratification of the amend
ment thirty-three states of the union had
adopted prohibition. After the amendment
was submitted to the states for ratification,
I believe, all except two states ratified it.
No amendment to the constitution has
ever been adopted after soefull and pro-
longed consideration as was the Eight
eenth Amendment. Whatever its merits or
dement's may be, whether it should be now
repealed or modified there can be little
controversy over the proposition that it
was a deliberate act at the time it was
written into the constitution of the United
States. 1t was perfectly clear at that time
that the people intended to promulgate
national policy they inserted into their
charter of government.
This amendment provides, in part, as
follows:
SGcU1On L. AILeT one year 1TOIu LIE
ratification of this article the manu-
facture, sale, or transportation of in
toxicating liquors Within the importa-
ton thereof into, or the expectation
thereof from, the United States and,
all territory subject to the Jurisdiction
thereof for beverage purposes is here
by prohibited
The language is specific and all-encon1-
passing-that the manufacture, or sale, or
importation, or expectation of Intoxicating
liquors "for beverage purposes is hereby
prohibited"
This part of the constitution has been
construed by the supreme court of the
United States; and in the first important
case which went to the court involving
construction of it, the court said that the
first section of the amendment, the one
embedying the prohibition, is operative
through the entire territorial limits of the
United States binds all legislative bodies,
courts, public officers, and individuals
within those limits, and of its own force
invalidates every legislative act, whether
by congress, by state legislature, or by a
