Conforming to annual custom, Shepprrd took the floor to say: “Beverage alcohol undermines the moral, mental and physical strength of multiplying millions and thus cripples the foundations of democ- racy, self-government and. progress. It imperils liberty because liberty is the power to choose the right and to take advantage of opportunity. “An article whose consumption im- pairs this power through the corrup- tion of the springs of thought and energy, of health and will, as does this liquid poison, is a destroyer of liberty and its tolerances, not an emblem of freedom.” Sheppard went on to say that “oc- currences since the repeal of the eighteenth amendment have shown that the dangers of the liquor traffic to the nation have multiplied with the disappearance of national prohi- bition.” He predicted that the number of motor accidents in 1935, due to liquor, would be found to have equaled the number in 1934 despite widespread safety campaigns.
