Let Them Vote!

Louisiana seems to have started something. Some months ago the Louisiana legislature adopted a measure to suspend all so-called ''local option" Prohibition elections -''untl the boys come home from this war and have their say about it."
 Now other states are following suit.
 Recently in Colorado an interim subcommittee of the State legisla- ture recommended that all local option elections be postponed for the duration. Minnesota and Indi- ana are reported to be interested in deferring voting on local option until the boys come home. Dele gates to the Nebraska State Con- vention of the American Legion, in August, adopted a recommends ton that the people of the State vote against a proposed Prohibition law in November. This is in sup port of the policy established by the Legion during it's 1942 National convention, recommending that Tell action on the question of pro- hibition be deferred until the end of the war, so that those men and women ia the service may have an opportunity to fully discuss, con slider and vote on the question when they return" Then came the Bear cat Post of the American Legion of Minnesota, recommending to the legislature of that State, which meets in January, that it enact legislation embodying the Louisi- ana principle.
 Down in Texas, the Lone Star State, an interesting recent experi- ence comes to light: Tarrant Coun- ty, Texas, voted dry during the .s.cst World War, when so many of it's voters were absent. This same county short time ago voted again and rejected Prohibition and local observers say that many people voted against the proposal to make the county dry, when servicemen were unable to have their Say"
 It seems that we do learn frcE: experience. It seems, too, that the several polls and tests among mem bers of the armed forces in obsentia have had their effect upon those on the home front whose responsibility it is to deliver back to our boys, when they come home, the way of life they fought to preserve.
