NO Bj ff' ^ SOUTH STRONG I AGAIN CALLI 111 ny 111 nit ? | i Seven-Day Campaign fc Amendment Goes J for Great Movemer r(f the early stages of tho fight for national prohibition tho itntoi of the sooth took tho lend and hare maintained it In all the trying year* in which the dry forces hare been locked In a death struggle with the forces behind the liquor traffic in this country. Aa a section the south was the first to clear itself of the stain of the liquor traffic and has been no small factor in giving its moral and financial support in the successful battles which other sectione of the country have waged against this traffic and which definitely becomes outlawed in America with the constitutional amendment that becomes operative January 16.

Clarke, of Atlanta, which comes tt6 a logical and absolutely necessary result of the enactment of prohibition laws, both state and national,1 and the companion measures which aim at their proper enforcement. "Finish the Job" "Let's enforce prohibition and finish the Job," has become the slogan and the watchword of those in charge of the campaign to enforce prohibition in this country. The speed and effectiveness with which this work is j done depends almost entirely upon; the spirit and the extent of the cooperation of those who hare made possible the results already achlevod. The placing of the prohibition laws and measures for their enforcement open the statute books by no means finished the job. There is still a vadt amount of work to be done before the li?uor forces confess defeat and retire from the field. While the saloon has been legielat 4 Mt of business, it to miking a determined effort to eome back, and it to the purpose of the World Prohibition Campaign to see that it doaan't coma back. The Liquor Propaganda When the Eighteenth amendment to the constitution was passed wellmeaning friends of Prohibition said: "Our nation now is legally dry; the cause of prohibition has triumphed ;[ the fight is won and we are through! with it." The intensive campaign of the liquor interests to nullify Prohibition is the answer. Their propaganda organisation baa been equalled only by that of (he German government. j EER,~NO W' IBr mf *ovs&r HOLD OF PROHii ED ON AS TORCH AL FIGHT WITH L r Fund* to Begin January Into Effect?Anti-Saloon L it to Finish the Job?World Even the moet casual reader of the 1* news of the day realises that Prohlbl- ti tloo has Its hardest fight ahead. The o liquor traffic is waging at the polls, pi In the courts and in the public press in the moet desperate and determined b> fight In its history. h To those who think America now P< is "dry," all that is necessary is a w glance around you. Reports are com- P lng dally of the death of one or more persons from drinking wood alcohol ^ and other dangerous concoctions sold g under the guise of corn whisky, and y the activities of the so-called "blind- p tigers" were never bo pronounced in C( the history of the country at the u n?ABan^ tima ySVOOta* IIUIV. ^ Ellhu Root Leads Wets *J ai And this is the very condition that, 4, is sought and is being encouraged by t, the liquor interests. They are being ]a advised by learned and highly paid counsel, led by Ellhu Root, to use every means in their power to make Prohibition a by-word and to make conditions under Prohibition so intolerable and the violations of the law so flagrant and the lack of law enforcement so notorious that the people will become disgusted with the situation and demand a return to the licensed saloon. ? It is the plan and purpose of the < World Prohibition Campaign, in f? so far as America is concerned, to ac- bl quaint the people of this country with < this situation and to open their eyes and keep them open to the subtle ci propaganda campaign which is being A waged by the liqaor interests. pi They are spreading the report and encouraging the belief that the Pro- p hlbitlon forces now will turn their at- ^ tentlon to legislation against tobacco, 0| tea and coffee. & Ne War On Tebaeoo .
