Holds Prohibition Big Issue. “If the Fall elections teach any les- son at all, it is that both parties must face the prohibition question honestly and fearlessly,” he said. “Prohibition embodies a national issue which is irrepressible. “Either the Volstead act must be changed or it must be enforced, and I am convinced it cannot be enforced. We have spent nearly $150,000,000 t ing to enforce it and have sacrifict rly $4,000,000,000 in taxes while nd our last state is vorse than the first. The Democratic creed offers the one and only solution. We have always believed in the right of each ate to settle in its own way ques- tions which intimately concern its veople, its peace, its order, its mor wd its customs. “This is such a question. Many of the States prefer absolute prohibi- tion. Others do not. So instead of attempting to club communities which resent the Volstead act into taking it, let the problem be settled under the traditional Democratic doctrine of local self government and State de- termination and turn the subject back to the State, so that each State may handle it in accordance with the con- | victions and will of its own people.” Prohibition, Gov. Ritchie said, “has bred more interstate discord and more political cowards and hypoerites and | has done more damage to the body politic and to our social fabric than anything which, In my observation at least, has ever entered our national life. who has Denies Disregard for Law. “I resent the imputation that those | who recognize this and who want to find a remedy for it are lacking in | regard for law and order.
