Ten of them are from the South, some are members of Con- gress and all are representative of the type described by Col. Robert G. Ing- ersoll when he said: “The Democratic party is like a man sitting on the rear platform of a railroad train, It never sees anything until it has gone by.” Tam about to state !n almost the exact language the viewpoint of one of the pussyfooters. He is a big, be successful man, a leader of the Dem- eoracy in hia section of the country, and his views are typical of the Dussyfoot argument. I may go fur- ther and say that he comes from a State not greatly remote from Ken- tucky. “Now,” he sald, “I like my liquor and I have plenty of it at home and I sympathize with the people of New York and other large cities whose habits of ‘life are different from the habits of life of people in parochial communities. I am for State prohibi- tion. But I believe States that want to regulate their own liquor question mhould be allowed to do so. “Conscientiously, I am in favor of @ declaration that the Democratic Party commit itself to the issue of State's rights onthe liquor question Politically, I am dead against !t. “Let me tell you why. If we make it part of our platform that we are in favor of modification or amend- ment of the Volstead Act we bind every Democrat who 1s going to run for Congress or the Senate this fall. ‘They will have to live up to the plank sere Ts + ss THE EVENING WORLD, THURSDAY, JUNE 24, 1920. or repudiate it and I believe a gieat | Wore the Pronibition issue in the/we have a great many State fight, a] wet side—even the damp side—or the many of them would repudiate it, | BJlatform.

What do you sup- pose would happen in Kentucky if we sent our Congressional candidates there into the campaign backing the wet issue? We wouldn't elect a man outside Louisville and Covington. “This is the logic of it. We can't hope for a modification of the Vol stead Act unless we s¢nd men to Congress who will yote for such a modification. men who think that way to Congress: if we adopt a plank which is in any way wet. is drop Prohfbition as a national issue on the ground that it is @ law and in the constitution and then let it be fought out in each congressional dis- trict, because {t will have to be fought | out that way. A candidate who goes into the Congress fight unfettered by any platform declaration can make his fight according to the circum- stances in his district. “If we nominate a man like James M. Cox of Ohio, that will be sum- olent declaration _to the people of where the Democratic Party stands. We know that if Congress votes to amend the Volstead act, Cox, if he ls elected President, will not veto the amendment.
