the extent to which the Federal power
lists want no mention of Federal author
ity. They feel that the commerce
clause of the Constitution gives Suffi
cient authority to regulate interstate
traffic and to protect dry States against
importations The other side insists
that many CT the possible violations
could not be covered by general powers
of the Federal Government and that
the decision on the conStitutionallty OF
the famous Webb-Kenyon law, which
undertook to bring the Federal power
into the matter of preventing importa-
tions into dry States, was delivered by
a divided Supreme Court of the United
States.
In any event there is no way under
the Constitution by which the taxing
power can be assured to the Federal
Government and If this is ignored by
those who draft substitute for the
eighteenth amendment or by those who
insist on an outright repeal, without any
constitutional grant of power on the
prohibition question, then the argument
over the probable value Of the revenues
from the sale of liquors will disappear,
so far as the Federal Governments S
balancing budget is concerned, The
talk of a billion dollars of revenue for
Uncle Sam will be replaced by demand
that the several States get this revenue
to relieve their own tax situations.
On the side of employment, the slow
procedure in changing the eighteenth
amendment, due to necessity of getting
special sessions of Legislatures and laws
to specify just how delegates to State
constitutional conventions shall be
chosen, means that the only hope for
aid from the reopening of breweries
within the present depression is through
repeal or modification of the Volstead
act.
The Republican platform makes no
mention of this except to go on record
against notification of the Constitu-
tion. The Democrats say they favor
manufacture of beer and other bever-
ages in such alcoholic content 'as is
permissible under the Constitution.
This implies that since the eighteenth
amendment prohibits the manufacture

REPEAL DEMANDED

DI DhNAD Lh"NLANNA'
The recent momentum for a change
IN the eighteenth amendment has been
due in large part to the existing eco
nomic situation-namely, the belief that
many people could be employed and
that Government tax revenues could be
increased by making possible lawful
distribution of intoxicants.
This phase Of the controversy has a
bearing on the possible procedure OF
Congress in taking the first steps with
reference to amendment or repeal OF
the existing statutes and constitutional
provision 1t certainly will have an in
fuence on the trend of the debate,
assuming, of course, that the proposal
of a new amendment is debated in the
atmosphere of economic depression in
the latter part of 1888 and that the
mood of the country is still militant on
the subject of taxation, which seems
likely to be the case for many years to
come.
Tax Clash Develops.
The power of the Federal Government
to tax the manufacture and even retail
sale of intoXicants, once their lawful
making is permitted, is unquestioned;
but so also is the power Of the several
States Just now there is a clash be-
tween Federal and State taxing pro-
clivities. Gasoline affords a case in
point. Coordination of Federal and
State taxation is in its infancy. Shall
the Federal Government be permitted
to take the lions share of the revenues
from intoxicantS and at the same time
hand over to the State the full expense
of law enforcement? Will the people
of the States relish increased taxes to
take care of enforcement job, which
under any system involves a certain
cost?
The States may claim that since
theirs is to be the complete burden,
they should get all revenues. The Fed
eral Government. on the other hand,
will be charged with the responsibility
in any event of enforcing laws govern
ing interstate traffic and importationS.
for there are 80 States bounded by deep
water, and each could not maintain q
coast guard or navy.
For many months it has been argued
that the Federal deficit could be cut
down and Federal taxes spared the
American people in large part if the
prohibition amendment could be re-
pealed Unless Federal amendment in
the future definitely reserves this tax
ing power to the Federal Government,
it will be open to all the States. Ex-
perience has proved that bootlegging
and speakeasies result from excessive
taxation of the distribution of intoxi-
eating liquors. When Philadelphia about
35 years ago made her license fees for
saloons too high. 5000 Speakeasies
sprang up and the police were found ac-
cepting bribes as protection for these
illicit places of retail sale. High Fed
eral and State taxes might produce a
similar result.
The big argument over the repeal of
the eighteenth amendment will come on

OF course you still hear plenty of
women saying, There's nothing

be built up in front, as the center

sometimes they're gored. With

little too steep for you.
Open Shank Pumps
With afternoon clothes, you see
many open shank strap pumps.
That is, deeply cut through the in

Of the sketch.
Most of these dressier shoes are
in kid. And there's a good, practical
reason behind that. For kid isn't
hurt by the rubbing of galoshes in
the winter time.
Kid-and-suede or kid-and-patent
combinations are stepping along
too.
(The strap style sketched could
be either.)
What Shoe Materials?
OF course some women will have
nothing but suede with their velvet
afternoon frocks. Usually in pump
