"No thinking maan can doubt thi Prohibition right now has its hardel fii(at ahead of it. We have legislate thre saloon out of business, hut it naing a determined fight to con hack. Th le liquor' forces, driven 1 the last ditch, arc making the bards light of their lives. Renewed a tacks now are being mnadle in ti curts to nullify the Prohibitic laws.

Calling to the South. "The Prohibition forces are calling now to the South to finish the job. Here, where Prohibitton was cradled, is the place to set the pace and blaze the way for the balanco of the nation and the world. "This campaign does not propose to interfere with Individuals; it is wag ing no war on tobacco; it is driving only toward enforcement of the law already on the statute booku and the enactment of others that may be necessary to reinforce them. "It is intended primarily as a cam paign of education. Literature to counteract the propaganda of the wets is being di3seminated, meetings wil be held and dry candidates will be supported against those of the wets for every political office from presi dent downward. "Officers charged with enforcement of the Prohibition laws will be en couraged and upheld co long as they do their full duty and those who are lax will be vigorously opposed at the polls." "In addition to the great work ol law enforcement and combatting the liquor propaganda in this countr3 there Is the greater task of carrying the war on liquor traffic into othei countries.
