Moreover, such a step backward would result in a chaos of new because the local svstems of prohibition and control which were developed over generations have been m larg degree abandoned under the amendment." He then goes on to say that he believes a change is neces sary in order to remedy the evils of the present situation, and suggests a plan by which "each state shall be given the right to deal with the problem as it may determine, but sub ject to absolute guaranties in the constitution of the United States to protect each state from interference and invasion by its neighbors, and that in no part of the United States, shaft there be a return of the saloon system with its inevit able political and social corruption and its organized inter ference with other states." ,i Does Mr. Hoover rememtwr that the principal reason for passing the national prohibition amendment was that it waa almost impossible to keep liquor out of a dry state when its neighbor state was wet? Does he realize that returning to state option' would involve the very "chaos of new evils" against which he is warning us? We admit the difficulties of enforcement under the pres ent system; but the difficulties under state option would be multiplied a hundred times. With thousands of automo biles crossing state lines daily (to say nothing of increasing numbers of airplanes) the enforcement of state prohibition laws would be a farce, unless the federal government should appropriate millions of dollar for the maintenance of an army of agents. Wet states scattered here and there through the nation : would provide perfect bases of operation for wholesale booU leggers who would have even less respect for the laws of dry states than they now have for our federal constitution. Any, attempt at enforcement would require the stopping and searching of every train, bus. track, and private automobile that crossed state lines; it would le such a nuisance that the whole nation would soon give it up in disgust. This question of states' rights was settled in the Civil; war; a state's rights are sulx'i-dinate to the authority of the federal government. On any such question as prohibition there can be no differences pemutted between states if the Union is to be preserved. Many Americans once thought that slavery should lx permitted in some states. Bitterness on that question was infinitely more intense than that which now exists between radical wets and radicii! drys. A war was finally fought to enforce the constitution and establish that great principle, "United we stand, divided we falL" ' If the majority of our people want liquor, we say "Let them have it." Hut first let them devise some plan which will positively protect the rights of the drys from the evils of the liquor traffic. State option is no protection; that has been tried and found wanting. Personally, we agree with Chapman's recent article in the Oregon Voter. Atter recounting the evils of the old system, he says, "We share none of the fanaticism of those with whom prohibition is a teligion. We simply number ourselves among tnose who remember conditions as they were, look upon them as they are, and wonder what they will be when liquor is made law ful and liquor will make law". Our memory, our observation, and our prophetic instinct unite to warn us against beating an ignoble retreat from a noble experiment."
