Pamts of Attack un 18th Anmndment . - 15—Two main upon the. 18th er mendment still remain to made by the anti-prohibition forces according to Hugh Fox, secretary of the Uhited Staies Brewers' .associa- tion here. The United States Supreme CUourt, he says, will adjudicate them. They are: First, Whether congress has the tight to aefine an “infoxicating beverage” and, second, a decision as 6 the scope and meaning of the provi- sion that “congress and the several states shall have concurrent power to pass appropriate legislation for en- forcement.” “If the supreine court,” “should finally uphold the right of congress to ‘establish a definition of one-half of one per cent. for the pur- pose of enforcing national prohibition, and that the states have no power in the matter, the effect would be to put cider and many so-called “soft drinks” under the ban. “Meanwhile,” said_Mr. Fox, he sajd, “the enforcement measure, which Is now known as tie National Prohibition Act, will, if sustained by the courts, de- prive accused persens of a trial. by jury, and make thémt prove their in- nocence No physician will be able to prescribe. alcohol in any. form without submitting - to' vexatious regulations which vill take so much time ‘and trouble that a busy doctor could not afford to ‘be ‘bothered with- them. Mr. Fox predieted that regulations to carry out the provisions of the act weuld prohibit the selling of appli- ances for home brewing or distilling and that “it is even doubtful if the farmer will be able to turn his own ap- ples into cider, his own grapes into wine or his small fruits into cordials”. Mr. Fox contended that the tederal ‘amendment specifically prohibits “in- foxidating beverages,” and this was ratified by the states with the under- standing that it meant mtmlcams liquors and nothing else. ‘Whether the amendment can now. be It Behooves you to this sale. ing prices this sale charge for boning and rolling NGl .

Mr. ¥ox paid his respects to the Antl-Saloon League by declaring tha “in opposing every. “attempt of thel people to vote on the question of pro- hibition,” it had “completely reversed. dts first principles of Americanism and democracy.” “The Anti-Saloon League” he said, “began its campaign for-state and na- tional prohibition about twenty years ago. They. started and continued un- der the cover of the slogans: ‘Localf] Option is another word for Anrerican- ism’ and ‘the first and lagt business of the Anti-Saloon League' is to abolish saloons.” ~ Repeatedly, at legislative hearings and at local license elections, its leaders declared that they were not trying to force total abstinence up- on the people and that any locality that wanted the license system could have it, and that they were simply insisting apon the right of Igeal self- governnient in licensihg and regulat ing the liquor traffic. “The movement began with local option by townships and municipalities. However, when it was found that the latter were not easily persuaded to glve a majority fof no-license, prohi- bition was forced upon’ them through the device of county local option, which was designed, not to permit a free ex- pression of the sentiment of each lo- cal community but to overthrow it where ‘need be. ;! “The strategy: of the League was, to _win the rural states and then to stifie the opposition in the industri- al states by eapturing the rural units which controlled their legislatures. Whenever this has been accomplished, Leagtie has fought bitterly against giving the people at large any yote whatever on the prohibition guestion but has forced prohibition through by legislative enactment. he Anti-Saloon League adopted the same tactics in its congressianal campaign. Dry states and dry districts were easily persuaded to demand dry congressmen, 4nd—as the recent vote on daylight saving clearly showed—the urban representation is outnumbered two to one in both houses of congress.
