ENING STAR, WASHINGTON, PARTES EVERTI 10 192 S Campaign Envisioned as Con- test Between Liberalism and Conservatism. (Continued From First Page.) tles and the first decade of the century. But the liquor interests, brewers and distillers, had prostituted Government so that control was & farce and prohibition seemed necessary. Now the generaticn which fought the World War is abandoning Federal pro- hibition as their fathers abandoned con- trol of the liquor traffic under local option. The new generation is plan- ning to adopt new methods of control | which their fathers never knew. The net result of the two conventions was a tremendous fight in which the cld Federal prohibitionists were not antagenistic. They faded out of the contest. The contest was between those who wanted no Federal control and those who demanded Federal control to protect the so-called dry States. Forthright Repealers Lose. In each convention the straightout, forthright, immedjate repealers lost. ‘They seemed to win in the Democratic convention, but phrases were weaseled into the platform which provided for ederal control of the interstate traffic in liquor under congressional legislation, In the Republican platform the re- pealers lost, and had to take instead of | congressional legislation the guarantee of a constitutional amendment cement- ing Federal control cf the State liquor traffic into th> Federal Constitution, And tken in a flash the repea’ers in the Democratic convention loct half their gains when Roosevelt was nomi- nated. For with the nomination of Roosevelt the fight between the parties in the presidential election divided not upon prohibition, but upon funda- mentals—social and economic policies. Indeed the parties divided sharply be- tween the East on the one hand and the South and West on the other, for ‘when Roosevelt appealed to the South and West in his acceptance speech with an issue of economic liberalism he in effect scuttled the whole prohibition issue. He gave it lip service, to be sure, the _allied | but in his speech he devoted to it less than a minute and a helf in a 40-/ minute speech. H ‘Thereupon, he abandoned the militant repealers of the East, leaving them only | the stark words of their platform for | their comfort. It was obvious in Roosevelt's lccept-! ance spéech that prohibition as an issue so far as he is concerned has| assed out of the campaign. Certainly oover will not revive the issue nor challenge Roosevelt on prohibition. But, nevertheless, Federal prohibition, though it passes out of the presidential campaign, will, none the less, pass out of American politics in due course and in the regular order. Want Substitute Amendment. Tt cannot take less than a year to get rid of the eighteenth amendment. It may take five years to repeal it and substitute some other kind of amend- ment, for, although a mejotity of the population of the United States may be tremendously cpposed to a substitute amendment, a majority of the States— entirely another mat! amendment tstitute amendment in the guaranteeing Federal con- 21 over interstate commerce in liquor to protect the dry States or even those States which desire to set up the Ca- nagdian system So in cold party facts, the month’s k at Chicago, for all its idiotic jower- ing, yammering, jabbering, posturing, screaming, booing,” howling and hand- clapping, was actually touching reality 1 at least one issue, the prohibition ven though it tokes time to | n_the eighteenth amendment, | days’ perspective of the spectacle ! tes 1t exident that amid the clamot | and the tumult of two terrible weel Chicagy something historically im- ant came out of it all. | More than that. In the last hour of the last convention the speech of Frapklin D. Roosevelt, accepting the Democratic nomination, marked another deeply_significant , change in our poli- tics. For the first time since 1912, 20 | long years, a candidate of one of the major parties sounded an unterrified liberal note in the formal clarion call to his party. In 1912, Woodrow Wil- son and Theodore Roosevelt were sound- ing liberal slogans. In 1916 the war muffled the liberalism of both parties. In 1220 Wi reti = issues of the reactionary servative he parties | both were con- no more liberal s less conservative Coolidge. The platforms and the candidates were virtually identical in many major matters. 1928 prohibition and Tammany and the presidential nomination of a Catholic—all tended to wipe out the ction between liberalism and con- ism in the election. h 1 1932 we find suddenly, t premeditation, two plat- | are more or less identical, | are changed almost dia- the men standing on tu 1924 Barricade for Liberalism. ority of the Democratic velt had no heir plat- | form and his liberali form.
