This editorial writer pro eeedn to flay those who favored such renotutinn by saying they “lack a sense, of proportion.’’ and that in their desire Jo see nation-wide pio hibition at this time'” they are "es sentially dishonest.” With The News and Courier’s attitude we have no fight, for this fiewspiflper has always been against any form of prohibition and bas corsistentlv. though unwisely, stood fpr liquor, and is still for it. even 'though Mouth Carolina Is “dry’’ and Char-, lesion is “dry.” If any one lacki a “sense of proportion" it occurs to us it is the editor of The News and Courier -who fails to see the doom 6f the traffic In alcoholic beverage Bnt with this attitude we are not concerned, but what really does con cern us is Chat a gathering of SouC Carolina newspaper, editors who have made State-wide prohibition possible because of their advocacy .of H. and who. favored it as a link in the chain of nation-wide prohihl tlon, should have joined forces with, the antl-pmhihitlnnl#ts at the Beau fort meeting and sent abroad over thp country the news that South Carolina’s editors jrre - no longo- prohlhltionMs. The excuse belnr offered by some that it was out o' order for any resolution to be offer ed at a meeting of the press asso ciation dot ling with such a sub leef.; is not to, bo eikorj seriouslv.
