He listened to the eries of questions the reporter wished to advance and he was quite willing to have his position made clea Insists on Enfo Mr. Me. ing short of is whether,| poli- in the controversy among outstanding course of the Democratic party. The answers were there. They could be presented to the public on his au- thority, if need be, as setting forth his position on the several phases of the wet-dry controversy. “Effort to Avoid.” To the suggestion by many Demo- cratic leaders that the prohibition question should be compromised in the 1928 convention to enable the party to go to the country to combat the Republicans on other issues, Mr. Mc- Adoo's direct reply is: “There is at present, on the part of many political leaders, an effort to avoid facing the issue of the enforce- ment of the eighteenth amendment. It is said that to face that issue would antagonize certain interests, would lose votes, would jeopardize hopes of party success. The two last of these three prophecies may be denied, but even admitting them to be true, what of it? “Does a political party exist solely for the purpose of getting into office without knowing what it intends to do after it gets there? Is it simply a selfish coalition-of office-hunters who seek jobs at any price?” “Their Solemn Conviction.” Further: “American people, in the adoption of the eighteenth amendment, register- ed their solemn conviction that the welfare of human beings should be protected from a traffic which took a heartless and heart-rending toll from millions of innocent persons, women and children. “The American people brought into operation by strictly constitutional processes the unchallenged power of the Nation to safeguard health, morals and general well-being of the com- munity. It was a determination to abate a public nuisance. The liquor interests, concerned only with sordid profits, have resisted. Their resistance has succeeded in inducing certain States to nullify the Constitution. Now they are pressing forward to nullify Federal enforcement. They seek con- trol of the Federal Government. Pledge of Enforcement. There must be then, in Mr. McAdoo’s opinion, an outright declaration for re- tention of the eighteenth amendment, a pledge of its sincere and effective en- forcement. Here is his reasoning: “There could be nothing more de- structive than a growing tendency to deny the face value of straightforward discussion of public questions. The absence of courageous political leader- ship is to blame for that. Frank and outspoken discussion of political reali- ties is a novelty. Have we come upon such unhappy days that any man who calls a spade a spade must have an ulterior motive? Must an honest ex- pression of conviction always be held to be inspired by some narrow or per- sonal purpose? “If we permit all great public ques- tions to be reduced to the level of expe- diency and personalities, the serious business of government becomes a mere game or sport, like prize fight- ing. The public is invited to support one leader or another, not because of what he has done, not because of the principles for which he stands, but be- THE TEST OF TASTE taste is better.

It could be nothing else. What votes could he lost except those of the enemies and opponents of the eight- eenth amendment?” Mr. McAdoo's belief that there must be a declaration for effective Federal enforcement in those States refusing or failing to enforce the law is thus disclosed by him: “In_their search for respectability the opponents of the eighteenth amend- {ment have seized upon the doctrine of States’ rights to win support in South- ern quarters for a cause to which the South is basically oppos: Any one who is impressed by that submits to a fundamental misunderstanding of the historic doctrine of States’ rights. States’ Rights Argument. “How can the doctrine of States’ rights be applicable in such a situa- tion, where the Constitution draws no | line between State and Federal power, and where, consequently, there can be no question of the Iederal Govern- ment invading a sphere of action vhich th. Constitution roserves ex- sively for action by the States? ‘The Federal Government in en- forcing the prohibition amendment by assuming powers which under the Constitution belong to States. It is exercsing a power which the States have imposed upon it through the Constitution itself. “The constitutional provision on the subject being what it s, there can be no more doubt about the constitution- al power of the Federal Government to enforce the prohibition amendment without invading States’ rights than about its power to coin money, estab- lish post offices and fix the standard of weights and measures. The ques- tion of States’ rights in any proper of the expression does not arise, evertheless, the wording of the eighteenth amendment is such that if the States do not care to witness an active campaign of prohibition en- forcement carried on by the Federal Governiment within their own borders iave it in their power to avoid .

INCORPORATED activities of the Federal Government would be objectionable, all they have to do is to enforce effectively the amendment themselves. This would reduce Federal activity to the mini- mum. This is what the amendment contemplates. Refusal to Co-operate. “The power of the Federal Govern ment needs to be brought into play within the borders of a State on any considerable scale only when the State is negecting to perform the affirma- tive duties of enforcement which the Constitution contemplates _that it shall perform. Extension of Federal activity is made necessary only by those States which have a war affection for the liquor traffic t the Constitution. “Federal activity the deliberate refus n States co-operate in_a Nation-wide sup- ssion of the liquor traffic by the joint action of the States. It is non- co-operation by certain States in a Nation-wide movement which, on one and, thus creates the necessity for Federal action, and, on the other, pre- vents yreliance in such States upon the principle of local enforcement.” Mr. McAdoo leaves no doubt that he could not subscribe to any doctrine that the Federal Government should confine its activities to the preven tion of smuggling, interstate traffick ing and ths control of industrial alco- hol manufacture, leaving the States to do as they please about prohibition | of the sale of aleoholie liquors. His view is that the Constitution does not contemplate that or admit it, and that the whole force of the | States’ rights doctrine “is on the side | of enforcement of the amendment by | the States if possible, by the Federal Government if necessary.” (Copyright._1927. by the Newspaper Allia . rth American ce.)
