It is likelv that many who are
renklnr: in favor of amending the
VolMtad Code so as to restore beer
and wino do not fully realize whit
the restoration to a leal siatus of
these alcoholic Ieveraf:ts mans.
They have not stoppt d to think
beyond the point that they wer.ld
like to have the privilege rf again
buying a glass of v.lnc or a bottle
of beer when they o desire. The
face is that the permission to manu
facture and Mil beer and vvine? un
der the Flgrhteenth amendment
means greater privileges tc tR
brewer nnd wine-maker and to the
retailor of these bevrravs than they
enjoyed under the license davs. This
!s true because under the terms of
the Eighteenth amendment, if the"
beverages nro permitted, they will
be cladaed as non-intoxicants. As
r.on-intoxirants they can 1c sold
without restriction In those state
where they are not rpeclflcal'y bar
red by state prohibit ion law. There
r.eod le no restrictions pltee-d upon
these Leverages that are not placed
npon other non-intoxica nts such as
pop and soda-watt r. It is incon
ceivable that t'cn the average beer
drinker would want a condition to
prevail where thibfren would be
Prmitted to pui chase wine and
li'M-r without hindrance.
It is doubtful if the average beer
drinker would want a condition to
prevail where beer nnd wine would
be hold indiscriminately, regardless
of time or place. None but the hope,
lese inobri.ite would rieTi-nd his
booze regardless of whether child
hood i:i to be protected or net.
The average drinking man, surely
when he reallTs that the restora
tion of beer and wine means th-.'
possibility of the opening of a beet
garden next door to his home and
tho certainty of the promiscuous
sale of brer and wine to all comer?,
including children, will not Insist up
on his drinks under these terms.
If there Is a man in your town
asking for the beer and wine amend
ment, explain to him that such an
amendment to the Volstead Cod?
wemld mean promiscuous and indis
criminate sales of those intoxicants.
Vr.der license saloon? wcro regu
lated at least to a certain extnt.
Regulation, it is true, prov d a dis
mal failure. And yet under license
liquor selling etablif. hments were
limited. These were known fs sa
loons and became such breeding
places of crime that even the wet
leaders tUhting tho Eighteenth
amendment, vociferously declare
that they are unalterably opposed
to the- return of the saloon."
These liquor-selling establish
ments Urown as saloons v. ere th-j
rende.-.vons of crooks and ccrrupi
politicians and the haven of dere
licts. They were the greatest men
ace to cood gcv ernr.ien. that
c!iv had to contend with.
At kast seventieths rf th.se
o'.or-seiJing e.stabh-hm. nl known ;.s
falcons were either own. I or (on
trolled directly or lndireetly bv th.
brewers. Now these br vers are'
loud in their protestations that they
do not wish the return of the saloon.
In fact, they say the saloon never
will return, that it is a thing of tho
pat. r.one forever.
And yet what are th?y asking
when they ask. fcr the restoration
of beer and light wines? Under the
Eighteenth amendment if the manu
facture and .sale of beer and wine is
again permitted, these liqu- r-s. llir.g
establishments will be multiplied a
hundredfold. They may net he
known as saloons but anyone who
f-f-s fit may deal in thes- alcoholic
l everages known n beer and wino
and this means u multiplicity of
Mich sale places. Cities and villages
In tho-o states where no Mate pro
hibition law would protect thorn,
which though dry in Ilcme days,
will be overrun with these beer-s.-ü.
ing establishments.
In the palmiest days of license the
per capita consumption of liquor in
the United states reached 22 gal
lons. All but about a gallon and a
half of this hquor was malt liquor
beer. In asking for the restoration
of beer and vino the liquor interests
are asking- for the restoration of
about 95 per cent of the liquor traf
fic. They arc ark ins for the return
of 93 per cent of the beozc that
made the saloons what they wore,
so bad that they are even receiving
tho condemnation of their former
owners.
Do you want any of this stuff to
be distributed in your town as a
non-intoxicant? If you don't get

Prohibition! What Dors
That Party Really Want?
Prohibition has be n in en'ect in
the United States f.q- more than s:v.
months. prr-"umably. T) o prohibi
tion amendment l.ecam.e a part r
the constitution of the United states
e n Jan. 1 1 . last.
The prohibition party, organize'.!
to outlaw tooze. holds a rational
c-e-nvention six months after n ob
ject has been attained apparently
and the delegates, gravely discuss
tho relative '"dryness" of rrospeo
t:vo nominees for the pre sidency. A
bunch cf eld maids plaving j,-.
would look dicnifie.l in comparison.
Next probably is ill be organiza
tion of an anti-slavery ticke; ami a
colonial party to procure the inde
pendence of the u; colonies from
England so that there may 1. ,.
taxation v itlm-it representation.
Then we .n fig "at the battles cf
Bunker Hill and Gettysburg and
Artietam all over apain.
co reasons the average person
who reads of the deliberations cf
the camel convention. I ait, Iet'.s
see. Jlere's tho delegation from
Colorado carrying a plank to the
convention calling for prohibition of
the manufacture and sale of to
baexro products, insisting that it be
included in the platform.
But that, of course, is reithcr
significant or important and we
apologize for having called attention
to it.
