To be sure you can. Well, then, the truth shows through the following facts clearly. Note these points: i 1. —National Prohibition became effective in the U.S.A. in January, 1920. 2. —The Volstead Law that makes the 18th (or Prohibition) Amendment effective can be modified or repealed any time by a simple majority in Congress. 3. Since 1920 the people have elected two new Congresses, i.e., in 1922 and in 1924. vV a 4.—A1l the time the liquor interests have been telling the People what a terrible thing Prohibition was—just like the hquoi interests here do. 5. But in spite of that the people send up to Congress more and more “ dry ” members. 6. 1924 16 avowed “ wets ” lost their seats, and not a single “ dry ” lost his. 7. —Congress now consists of 435 representatives, of whom 319 are known “ drys,” 105 known “ wets,” and 11 doubtful. Senate has 96 members of whom 72 are “dry.” Congress is 75% dry. WOULD THAT HAPPEN IF ONE-TENTH OF WHAT THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC SAYS ABOUT THE U.S.A. WERE TRUE? / The people of the U.S.A. are satisfied with their Prohibition law. We shall be satisfied with ours when we vote it—and we will make it a big success. STRIKE OUT THE ‘'Jkats riqht Dad!
