A1a??v> r?f Trrotrti Tirhi Aiaim tu^ pivmuAuvu nu?v nuivu has swept over various sections of the country, and plans for combatting it effectively were voiced last night by . speakers at the monthly meeting of the Manufacturers' and Dealers' clubJudge Rufus Potts, of Springfield, ex-Governor George W. Peck, of Wis, consin and Frederick P. Eslock outlined a course they said will beat the attacks of the anti-saloon forces. They included, among their recommendations, the following: Ministers and church influence must be divorced from the prohibition question. Business men having dealings with the liquor trade must be made to feel, through business relations, the undesirability of helping its opponents. Retail dealers should be supervised to see that they are of good character. "The key to the situation is to drive the ministers out of the fight," declared Mr. Eslock. v"If the minister preaches prohibition in the pulpit, if women, as in Philadelphia, will march the streets, with banners, singing, 'Onward, Christian Soldiers'? and it's a good march?there's no force that can beat a fight like that. The question is not a moral one, although it has moral aspects, and no Christian minister has the right to stand in his pulpit and preach it. "If you are going to bump your heads into prohibition, it is going to win. But there always are ways of sidetracking j)ublic issues. I'd make the legislative bills so bad that they would never pass." "The clergy is unable to distinguish between crime and sin," said Judge Potts. "You cannot legislate sin out of existence. To advocate the idea that sin is controllable by laws is to advocate the impossible. "At this rate, instead of the ten commandments, we shall have the revised statutes of Illinois read from the pulpit or a chapter from the criminal code, or a section from the report of the law and order committee, or a collection for the Anti-Saloon League. If the present just and unjust complaints against the way dramshops are operated are continued, it will drive out the entire traffic." Mr. Peck told of his experiences in states having prohibition laws. "In Kentucky 90 per cent, of the counties are dry," he said, "yet there . are bottles in nearly every ice box, In Atlanta, Ga., the real estate business is dead. In Alabama prohibitior will continue for fear the colored man will get intoxicants, but he'll gel them any way.
