Mias McDonald Speaks From
Personal Experience.
Washington, April 5.—“Wom
en believe in prohibition because
it has removed the fear of the
corner saloon from their lives.
The mother who breaks the pro
hibition law has lost a great deal
of her right to demand obedi
ence from her children,” were
statements made by Miss Esth
er McDonald of Columbia Uni
versity at the banquet of the
College and University Student
Conference in behalf of Observ
ance of Law and Citizenship at
the Hotel Raleigh tonight. Miss
McDonald spent last summer in
factory, and says that while
some of the men friends of the
industrial women resent prohi
bition, the industrial women al
most without exception are for
it.
Under the topic, “What the
Modern Woman Thinks of Pro
hibition,” she declared that the
so-called “upper class” girls who
are “feeling a wonderful new
freedom” are not typical, and do
not deserve the attention they
are receiving at this time. In
her address, she said in part:
“As a factory girl this sum
mer I was interested in glean
ing the opinion of my fellow-
workers concerning the Eigh
teenth Amendment. Some of the
men-folks of my industrial girl
friends seemed to resent prohi
bition, feeling that it made a
further, class distinction because
the wealthy man found it easy
to purchase immunity from any
observance of that particualr
part of the Constitution. But
the women workers, almost
without exception, were for it
because they found that to them
it had given a degree of free
dom they had never known be
fore. They could now be pretty
much free from that horrible
anxiety that had always been
associated in their minds with
the corner saloon.
*
‘ ‘Most of them are pretty
sure now that their husbands
or fathers will bring their pay
envelopes home without any se
rious dent in them—something
they have always had reason to
doubt before. And so, for the
industrial woman, I found the
Eighteenth Amendment means
freedom, and sfnee they love
freedom as much as their col
lege or society sisters they are
not apt to want to give it up.
“There are many facts that
the modern woman takes into
account in exercising her choice
of conduct. She recognizes that
all the facte show that those
who drink even moderately do
not have as fair a chance for a
iwo vAuiegc txames
