Upshaw, Atlanta, for eight years a member of congress from Georgia. “If you vote dry, make sure that jofficers enforce the prohibition law. If the officers don’t enforce the la don't vote for them at the next elec- tion,” the speaker said to his listen- ers, who numbered more than 400. Mr. Upshaw derided that group of persons who claim that the prohibi- tion amendment was passed while they were napping. He said that the prehibition question was settled dur- ing the election of congressmen im-| mediately before and during the! World war. | “Politicians at that time had to face the prohibition question square- | ly and make a definite stand,” he | said. “The voters knew where the candidates stood and congress became overwhelmingly dry. The question was not decided after the war.” The speaker also pointed out that more than 40 states had voted them- selves dry before national prohibition was realized. The Women’s Christian Temper- ance Union was the moving force be- hind the Anti-Saloon League and the prohibition movement, he said in an jattempt to show how the women of \the country have helped in the move- ment.
