The Pretext
for National Prohibition
THE PLEA FOR NATIONAL PROHIBITION is made on the ground
that the Prohibition States could not protect themselves against liquor
shipments from "Wet" States.
THIS REASON NO LONGER EXISTS. The Webb-Kenyon Law,
together with the Reed Amendment (generally known as the "Bone
Dry" Law), forbid any railroad or express company to transport liquor
into States whose laws prohibit it, and makes it a crime for anyone to
bring liquor into any Prohibition State.
IF A STATE WANTS TO BE "BONE DRY," it can become so by
adopting State Prohibition, with the assurance that the Federal Government will see to it that no liquor is shipped in.
THE AMENDED WEBB-KENYON LAW was passed in recognition
of the right of each State to adopt its own policy on liquor legislation
free fro moutside interference. For the same reason those States which
do not want prohibition have the same right of protection for their policy

great day for this farming section, Dec.
6, and we add for the public in general
all the subjects were ably handled, but
the address of the evening given by the
conductor, C. R. White of Iona, Ontario county, was exceptionally fine. It
bore largely on the crisis facing our
country, the needs of the hour, and
the personal responsibility of every
American—man, woman and child. Mr.
White predicts we are coming to the
pinch, and the dreadful reality of war
conditions before the great struggle is
ended, of which we know nor realize
but little now. Mr. Dewey of Lake

COERCION BY A CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT of states
opposed to Prohibition would be most unfair.
REMEMBER, THAT ONCE ADOPTED AND MADE A PART of the
Constitution of the United States, National Prohibition would be VIRTUALLY IRREVOCABLE. However short it might fall of the results
expected of it—whatever other evils might arise because of it—however
great its failure might be in a National way, even as it has been in the
State experiments—it would be practically impossible to revoke it,
EVEN THOUGH AN OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF THE POP
ULATION DESIRED ITS REPEAL.
