Challenge to Debate Prohibition
: Cause Meets With Curious
Conditional Acceptance
lomt other person. To nhow that this
provision Is founded on a deep laid
principle we can bring- forward atatla
tlo.a to 'damonBtrata that prohibition
wai never made fffectlve, and; that it
invites worse violations of the law
than obtain undr the presont yntem."
Representatives of the prohibition in
terests may thoy have no members suf
ficiently familiar with Oerman to de
bate In that tongue. They are Inclined
to think Mr. Kleeman was planning to
take advantage or them when he made
such proposition. ..
A challenge to debate the prohibition
Issue made some time ago by J. P.
Newell, secretary of the prohibition
committee of Oreiron, has been formally
accepted by-Otto Kleeman, president of
the Consolidation ' Oerman 8p-aklnir
ocletles. Mr. Kleeman, In his letter of
acceptance, stipulates that the debate
be riven . In German, a stipulation
which rauKed much surprise among the
' prohibitionists. ..- ; , '
"We tlilnlc.lt strange that we should
he called upon to advocate an American
Irtsue in ' Oerman." declared W. E.
: Crltohlow,". who. representing- Mr,, New-
.fCll. la concluding- the arrangements for
the debate. "Here. are man doing busi
ness In America, who are cltlsens .of
the United States, who: allege that pro-
' hlbltlon violates the constitution of the
United States, and yet' who ask to
defend Ihelr" position In German. ' '
"This - la an Issue of the , United
States and we will debate In our own
. language or not at all. It seems to me
ridiculous that such ' a proposition,
should be made to us." '
V , "It seems to me rather peculiar that
men who never knew what personal
liberty was before coming to this coun
try should ask to defend an issue of
what they term, personal -liberty In the
tongue which scarcely knows such
-words." said James R. Knodell of the
Antt-Saloon league. "I would be glad
) to - see the matter . threshed : out, pro
and con, but I prefer that we take up
our own Issues In our own tongue. ' It
would be manifestly unfair to ask v
. to argue matters connected with our
own welfare in a foreign language." '
- Can Think la Oerman.
j? "We can think-better 1n "German;' wt
can talk better in German that Js rea-
- son, we want to use the mother tongue,"
said Mr. Kleeman,. "To show that we
are ready for the debate and will en
courage lt we will provide the hall and
, the refreshments, any kind of refresh
ments ,our-friends may desire. If we
, are not allowed- to speak In German,
we will ak the privilege of writing
out our debate, taking mora time for
thinking It oven v. v r.-

this country because under, the consti
