tenting itself with the suggestion
that it permits states to settle the
liquor issue for themselves, that is
give wet states opportunity to legal
1ze liquor and dry states to keep
prohibition.
Because of divergent views on the
form of such amendment, some time
necessarily would be required to
draft a satisfactory one. In each
case the original bills presented to
house and senate would be referred
10 committees, which would hold
hearings-undoubtedly extensive
and then draft modified amend
ment.
Two-thirds vote of each branch
OF congress is necessary to submit
the modified amendment to state
conventions. Ratification by con-
ventionS in three -fourths of the
states is required. A constitutional
amendment is not subject to the ap-
prevail of the executive.
Drys have only to control thirteen
such state conventions to prevent
any change in the existing law.
The state convention method of
ratifying constitutional amend
mentS, though provided in the Con-
Stitution originally, never has been
employed in the country's history.
All of the nineteen Amendments
have been ratified by state legisla-
lures.
Ratification by conventions in
three fourthS of the states immedi-
ately would make the modified
amendment effective.

Explaining how the repeal plank
was adopted by the state delegation
last week, Marshall told the conven-
ton that he took the platform
merely to voice the sentiments OF
the Hoosier people.
Il desire to correct the impress
sion which may have been made by
the blazing banners you saw while
ago." he said.
In adopting this plank which is
before you now as the minority re-
port, the Indiana Republicans mere
ly wanted to let the people express
themselves on repeal.
1T certainly is gratifying to know
that the minority report presented
for adoption is virtually verbatim
copy of the plank adopted by us
when we nominated candidates for
United States senator, Governor,
and other important offices"
Outlining the four points in the
state proposal as the audience
cheered, the gray-haired veteran as
serted:
This certainly is the time to give
the people opportunity for free ex-
preston Of their will. We believe
as good Republicans, that the mi
nority report should be a part of the
Republican platform.

"a great victory" the record of

can be no doubt of the economic
benefits of prohibition. Viewing
the temperance question only
