3 PROMIBITON LAW HASGONE 100 FAR This Is'Opinion of Mt. Holyoke College Speaker South Hadley, Mass, Oct. 30~ Discussing tW® referenda that ap- pears on the Massachusetts state election ballot before the school of politics at Mount Holyoke college today, Frank H. Hankins, professor of economics and soclology at Smith college, took decasion to arralgn se- verely what he termed the trickery and decelt, officifl bribery and cor- , ruption that have resuited from the, attempt to enforce the national Vol- sead act. The time has arrived, he sald, for admitting that the prohi- bitlon law has gone too far. “The imposition of a federal law upon 120,000,000 people living under ‘the most diverse soclal conditions and family customs,” he sald, “must ignore individual differences and sectional variations and hence seem to a large number obnoxious inter- ference with personal matters, A fierce and violent enforcement of may achieve outward conformity but inevitably leads to secret and multi- |, farious {mmirality. Fo my mind there is an indication that the time has arrived for admitting that the law has gone too far. ‘The essential question 4s whether Massathusetts should formally ‘ap- prove the Volstead act because on the face of it that seems the proper and conventional thing to do, or con- front the realities and - refusal to lend support to an Intolegable farce. Some of us will believe that the line of progress Is in the direction of ever more complete approximation to the prohibition ideal. That gp- pears to my way of thinking as the policy of dogmatic ideallsm. It's a self-righteous viewpolnt which would impose one's own way of life on others for their benefit. “The line of true advance is & temporary retreat. Such retreat is by good English and American tra- dition atcomplished by a policy of passive resistance, It is admit a choice betw22n obnoxious nonsupport of established law and on the other the evil of continued corruption of public morality. The former seems the lesser evil, It is politically unsound to destroy the freedom of the vast majority in or- der to impose ¢ the biologically unfit tha assuy Ayl benefits of the forcible restraints of a benevolent paternalism.” < In conclusion he raid: “The sensiblé policy, ticen, is to find some plan whivh preserves the essenfizl ‘freedom of the individual, secures also the essential protection of the community from the vices and excesses which accompanied the old saloon, and yet reduces official corruption to a minimum and tol- erabie amount. A reconsideration 6f the existing law secems inevitable and it can be hastened by refusal to indorse the present hypocritical pretension.” ¥ Minox, the wonder oint. ment, is the only thing n n known to science that will give complete reliet from painful and unsightly boils, pimples and carbuncles within twenty-four hours.
