A MOW LAW, JUT SAMK PROKLKM Tlie federal jrovei'nmont is netting set to make a new drive against Uiotlejigors and rum-runners. That statement seems to put the clock back several years. It smacks of the old days when we took it for granted that the 18th amendment was her6 to stay. Hut it comes from Washington in the slimmer of 19!M, more than a half year after the amendment was buried. Details of this new drive have a strangely familiar sound. The alcohol tax unit of the internal revenue bureau is to be expanded.1 Coast guard forces all along the Atlantic coast are to be strengthened to strike at a new "rum row." The new liquor bottle and label regulations will be enforced with all possible strictness. Lowering of the liquor tariff and tax rates is discussed, so that the price of legal whisky may be cut to meet illegal competition. 'I'lio American people had two chancps to make nilHtakPS In connection with the llfjnor traffic nml they took both of. them. Plrot of nil, we more or less took it for granted that by making the traffic HlcKnl we would F.olvo the whole, uKe-olrt liquor problem. We tried that and It didn't work. After lews than a decade and a half of prohibition wc found that we had f simply hopped out of the drying pan Into the fire. Prohibition brought certain benefits, but It brought such flagrant abuaes that the' amendment ' was finally ousted from the constitution by an overwhelming vote. And then emtio our second mistake. Just as wo hud originally assumed' that outlawing the traffic would automatically aolve the problem, so now our child-like faith led' us to believe that legalizing the trafllc would do It. In the first Instance we thought that all we had to do waa pass a law; In the second, we thought that all wo had to do was repeal one. Hut the liquor problem, like death and taxes, seems tb be Inescapable. It was a knotty one under prohibition, and It Is almost equally knotty under repeal. And It Is Just about aB far from solution now as It ever wns. We have had altogether too much emotionalism on both sUIch of the fence. As a result, wo have hint nothing remotely resembling a cool, scientific study of the problem which might show us the best lino of attack. Unless we get something of that kind we are apt to find that wo returned to the drawbacks' of an open liquor traffic without abolishing those of prohibition.
