Some Facts About the Literary
. Digest Prohibition Poll
(By Cora Francos Stoddard, In The
American Issue.)
1. A disproportionate part of the
total poll came from 15 former wet
states which had not adopted state
prohibition. These 15 Btates have 47
per cent of the population of the
nation.
BUT
They cast 63 per cent of the total
vole In the poll.
Tliey cast 55 per cent of tho beer
and wine vote.
They cast C3 per cent of the re
peal votes.
2. NO STATE gave a pluarality
for repeal.
3. Twenty seven states, containing
57 per cent of the population of the
nation gave a plurality for STRICT
ENFORCEMENT.' Twenty-three of
these had enacted state prohibition
before constitutional prohibition
went Into effect. Six states had such
laws for over two years, nine from
two to four years, six from five to
twelve years, and two over 35 years.
4. Twenty-one stateB and the Dis
trict of Columbia gave a plurality
for wine- and beer. Nine of these
were former wet states. Twelve of
these states and the District of
Columbia had had prohibition. BUT
only two of them had had It for
over five years, and the average
for five of them was oi:ly thirteen
months. They were relatively new
prohibition states.
5. Fifty-five per cent of the beer
ami wine vote came from 12 states
which had largo financial beer and
wine interests. These 12 states for
merly made 93 per cent of the beer
and moHt of the wino made In the
United States. They have 49 per
cent of the population. BUT they
cast 54 per cent of the total vote,
65 per cert of the beer and wine
vote, and 62 per cent of the votes for
repeal. AN'P they contain 72 per
cent of the foreign born population
of the United States.
The beer and wine demand, as ex
pressed in the Literary Digest poll
comes pre-eminently from the states
having a minority of the population
of the nation, but (1) where beer
and win'e financial interests had
their stronghold, and (2) where for
eign drinking customs among ten
million foreign-born keep up the de
mand for beer and wine.
Eight of the twelve states referred
to produced from one and one-half
million to seven million barrels each
and the other four states half a mil
lion barrels each in 1919.
No ballots were sent to Hawaii,
although tho Ar.ti Saloon League of
Hawaii wrote asking that such be
sent here.
. The president of the Indiana W.
C. T. U. writes that she asked In
vain for ballots and that she has
spoken to audiences of 5000 people
where only two had received bal
lots.
The superintendent of the Anti
Saloon League for New York made
inquiry of the churches of that state.
Of 377 churches, 63 had received no
ballots at all and 90 others had re
ceived only one or two. The super
intendent himself did rot get one.
Out of the 29,384 church voter3,
coui'ted and reported by pastors,
only 1SS0 had ballots sent them.
iTIie Literary Digest poll of fac
tory workers gave 62 pur cimt for
modification of the lnw. 29.5 per
cent for r:i:e:, and only 8.4 pur
cejiit for I'liforcemt'nt. Thousands of
tttetse factory votes came from New
Jqraey, the wet state which only
ratified tha 3 SUi Amendment a few
months bko. Many of these who
voted wcra a!U;i:s. not really en
titled to say a:-ythins at al! about
the management of Anurieau affairs.
'These wore n'.l straw votes. BUT,
the oth. r day in lh sain j wet Now
Jersey in the primary claction. Sen
ator Freyliiigluvion defeated Gover
nor Edwards for ihe nomination by
a ' good majority. And Freylinghuy
sen is as dry as Governor Edwards
Is - wet.
Again, in 33rd dUtrlct 1:: Pennsyl
vania, Clyde Kelly ran for nomina
tion for congress against a man who
had the backing of tho Alleghany
County Liquor Htw.Wa Association.
They backed their man to the extent
of $75,000, on a platfoim of repeal
of the enforcement code, a;d the
return of boor and wine. It was an
out-and-out WET vs. DRY and it
was in one of the largest Industrial
districts of the nation, where steel
workers, miners and other laborers
make up the majority of the voters.
BUT. Kelly received a majority vot
of 11,900 on the Republican ticket,
a 3 to 1 vote on the Democratic
ticket, and all the prohibition tick
et votes. THERE WAS NO STRAW
VOTE IN THAT VOTE. THEY ALL
COUNTED.
And in 44 state primaries up to
this writing the temperance people
have made good gains In the nomin
ation of men known to be dry.
What a cheering word this Is from
Governor Farrlngton:
"I believe that If the prohibition
law with all Its exacting require
ment were submitted to a vote of
the people of Hawaii today, the
vote would be overwhelmingly for
prohibition and all the exacting re
quirement. " (From letter to Am
erican Legion delegates to Nation
al convention).
Our great question is not prohi
bition. We have thRt as part of our
national constitution.
The great question of today is
tho enforcement of the law. The
Anti Saloon League of Hawaii is
do'ng all that Its means will allow
to awaken the people to the impera
tive need of respect for and obed
ience to this and all other laws.
We are counting on your help.
