Brown, “with the aid of mirrors and the help of. a hat.” Brown, whose face is his fortune, uses few mechanical tricks for his screen comedy, but he believes that the proper hat is one of the best assets @ comedian can have. In his latest First National guffaw gatherer, “The Tenderfoot,” which comes to the Paramount Theatre Fri- day, Joe wears a too-big cowboy hat and a too-small grey fedora. Both,|, he believes, are true to the character he plays. In fact, Joe seldom goes through a picture with a hat of prop- er size. “The true, sympathetic comedy character,” Joe says, “does'nt often buy a hat to suit himself. He is a timid soul and buys what some sales- man sells him. It generally doesn’t fit, or the wearer wears it as though it didn’t fit. “Anyway, I feel funnier in a funny at.” Supporting Brown in his most elab- orate comedy are Ginger Rogers in the feminine lead, Lew Cody, Robert Greig, Vivian Oakland, Marion Byron, Ralph Ince, Spencer Charters and many others. Ray Enright directed “The Tender- foot,” the script of which is by Arthur Caesar, Monty Banks and Earl Bald- win. >——_ | Hazlegrove <4 By MRS.

A “TUBA HoRN, Wet Strategy Has Been Changed La Opponents of Prohibition Seem| the first place in the traditional to Assume That Liquor Law is Doomed EDITOR’S NOTE: This is the last of four stories on the history of prohibition, made especially timely by the recent action of the Repuli- can and Democratic national con- ventions, # * # By BRUCE CATTON Whether or not the end of prohibi- tion as a national policy is actually any nearer today than it was in 1920 is something that only time—and, Possibly, the coming Sigs tell. One thing, though, is obvious: tactics of both the wets and the drys have changed profoundly in the last few years. As has been seen, prohibition went into effect with hardly a dissenting vote, aside from the plaintive cries of the brewers’ and distillers’ associa- tions. No prominent political leader lifted up his voice to denounce it; no party even suggested that the question of repeal or modification was worth debating. In 1924 there was no wet-dry issue in the presidential campaign. - The way in which the Smith-McAdoo co- horts cut one another's throats at j | Madison Square Garden saw to that. In 1928 both parties had dry plat- forms, but one candidate was general- ly recognized as a dry while the other was generally recognized as a wet. Since then things have happened fast. Witness the 1932 Democratic and Republican platforms. ee * Wet Program Shaped No longer are the wets simply de- manding a change. They are getting down to cases now and offering spe- cific suggestions as to the way in which a change should be brought about. They are actually basing their Policy on the assumption that some- thing is going to be done about prohi- bition and that the chief problem now is that of how and what. At the same time, in some sections of the dry camp a change in strategy has become apparent. Until very recently, no friend of Prohibition would consent to any pro- posal that the amendment be submit- ted to any kind of vote. Lately, however, many dry leaders (though by no means all of them) have frankly stated their desire to have a new vote on the subject. Some of them, as devoutly in favor of prohibition as ever, have urged that a national referendum on the ques- tion be held so that it can be settled, one way or another, for good. Confi- dent that a majority of the citizens still are “solid” on prohibition, they are prepared to welcome a test vote. It is about the ways and means of holding such a vote that much of the discussion today is centering. ee # Procedure in Doubt The most obvious way, perhaps, is to have the wets try to get prohibition out of the constitution in the same way that the drys got it in—by consti- tutional amendment. One school urges that Congress simply pass and submit to the states for ratification a straight-out repeal of the 18th amendment. This de- mand is contained in the Democratic platform. Advocates of this measure point out that even if the amendment were repealed, the old, pre-1918 state pro- hibition laws would remain in force. In states which never went dry, the old license laws would remain. States that had voted dry before the adop- tion of the 18th amendment would still be dry. Furthermore, the Webb- Kenyon law would remain to prohibit shipment of liquor from dry states into wet ones. Another school insists that the 18th amendment cannot be repealed with- out a carefully thought out substitute measure to take its place. This group suggests that a new amendment to the constitution be submitted; one that weld not only repeal the 18th amendment, but that would also set up some new law to control the liquor traffic. This is the plan suggested in the Republican platform. This group, of course, has a dozen different factions. Some favor a very simple federal law that would provide for state option. Others have elabor- ate schemes for federal ownership or control of the liquor traffic through government stores, dispensaries and what-not. Some have drawn up copies of Ontario's famous liquor law; others would have the federal law more like Quebec's. ** # Split on Method The chief problem is the question, how is the job to be done? The amendment was voted in in 2/camps feel that this method would} st Few Years method. Passing both houses of Con- gress, it went to the states for ratifi- | cation by the legislatures. When the |legislatures of 36 states had ratified |it, it became law. Some wets, and some drys also, |would have any repeal proposition | © | submitted in precisely the same way. | ae ae eaitee? iene | But there is room for a lot of argu- ;ment here. Some wets are sharply ;opposed to this plan, remembering the influence which the Anti-Saloon League once wielded in every state capital. Some drys are just as sharp- ily opposed to it, feeling that legis- jlatures would not be as responsive jto Anti-Saloon League pressure as | they used to be. | In addition, some members of both j st not provide for a clear expression of | ‘opinion by the electorate. In many, if not most states, they assert, the amendment would come before a leg- islature which had been elected before ythe measure got through Congress; a legislature whose members had not | campaigned as wets or drys and who, in many cases, would have no definite idea of the wishes of their constitu- jents on the matter. To avoid this difficulty, a number of leaders on both sides, but especially | among the wets, have proposed that Congress in passing the repealing act or the substitute amendment specify | that state conventions be called to; | ratify it. Both major party platforms} this year suggest such a measure. * ek Some Want Plebiscite There are still others who feel that before any change in the law is brought! up for definite consideration there should be some sort of plebiscite which Congress and the legislatures could loox for guidance. Few of these people have submitted concrete plans. Mostly they arguc is proposed, Congress would have enough light on the subject to enable it to pass a law accurately expressing the wishes of the voters; and, if the law that Congress passed calied for | further consideration by the different | states, the legislators also would know just how their constituents felt about | it all. { eee Few Favor Convention Another way to settle the matter! would be to call @ national constitu- | tional convention. This idea, how- ever, has had few backers; for such a convention would be empowered, not only to consider a change in the 18th amendment, but also to make any other changes in the constitution it saw fit, and the prohibition issue might well get lost in the shuffle long before the proceedings ended. i Finally, there is a group of wets which frankly leaves alteration of the amendment itself out of consideration and urges Congress simply to repeal! the Volstead act and leave the nation with a constitutional provision for prohibition, but no means of enforcing it. The idea, of course, is that the law , would straightway become a dead let- ter, and that each state could have as much or as little prohibition as it matter.
