DRY RENAISSANCE?
(New York Times)
Our Prohibition friends are |
hard to discourage. In 1936 their
•Candidate for President got 12,336
votes, yet they nominated anoth
er national ticket the other day.
In tihis state they are circulating
petitions for a full list of Presi
dential electors and candidates
tor United States Senators and
Representatives at Large. This
political resilience after calamity
is admirable. The basis of reality!
is not evident as yet. It is true
that in a large number of local
option elections in the last two or
three years the Prohibitionists
have won many victories, but sub
stantially all of them were in
small places. In December, 1938,
the American Institute of Public
Opinion asked its selected cross
section of tihe voters this, among
other question: “If the question
of national prohibition should
Come up again, would you vote
for it?”
Yes, said 36 percent; No, said
64. Last January the replies to
the same question were 34 per
cent Yes and 66 percent No. For
some years after repeal the Anti
Saloon League of America, the
W.C.T.U., the Board of Temper
cnee, Prohibition and Public Mor
al8 of the Methodist Episcsopal
Church, South, seemed to be
quietly content with a program
of education. If prohibition is to
be forced into politics again, its
prospects are not of the bright
est. The taxes on liquor yield a
great federal revenue, if not
quite so great as was expected.
States, cities, towns, milk the
same fruitful source. Eighteen
states, containing, it is said, one
third of the country’s population
eire monopolist liquor dealers.
The obstacles to a successful re
vival of prohibition are formid
able and seem likely to be per
manent.
