.SAN FRANCISCO, Sfpt. 1 4 )r.
Nicholas Murray liutter, another
3-hoitIe num. announces he will
work and votn for Herbert IIoovct,
because lie declares Hoover's flec
tion will be "bent (or tliB country."
Dr. 'Butler Is quite right. But
how does h reason that u dry
president is bst fur tlo country,
when he regard h prohibition hk
moniliy and legally wruntf?
Thu answer, no doubt. Is that
th learned doctor has reasoned it
all out it-aliHticully, and has come
to thu Inevitable, conclusion that
voting for Al Smith as a protest
against Prohibition, is not only a
futile but a dangerous gesture.
He knows, as every thinking
person knows, that when Al Smith
promises . the Wets, Prohibition
modification or a lgal drink, he Is
promising something he can't
fulfill. Hj also knows that even
if Smith should be elected, his
election could not be taken as a
demonstration that public opinion
Is opposed to the Dry law or its
enforcement.
Why? Because the issue lias
been mixed hopelessly with po ti
tles. H undieds of thousands of
Dry Democrats are goin to vote
fur Smith, and hundreds of thou
sands of Wet Republicans are go
ing to vote for Hoover, so that the
result in November, Is not, and
can not, represent, either the wet
or dry strength In this country.
Take tho solid south for exam
ple. -No sane person doubts that
Smith will secure the electoral
votes of the Solid South; In fact
ho can't get to first base without
them.
And yet everyone of these states
is uncompromisingly dry, and
would In any attempt to repeal the
Prohibition Law, render Buch a
repeal practically impossible. In
other words a majority of the
Southern Democrats are doing pre
cisely what Dr, Butler Is doing,
they are placing party above prin
ciple, and are refusing to accept
Prohibition, as either a paramount
or a genuine issue,
This situation Is so plain, that
It is really surprising that any
considerable number of Republi
cans could be ho credulous as to
fall Into the cleverly designed
Smith-Raskol) trap, and vote for
Smith under tho impression that
by so voting, they are starting the
ball rolling against prohibition.
They are doing nothing of the
sort. They are merely starting the
ball rolling for four years of
Democratic rule.

Amunulluh has completed a 4000

j oponents of Prohibition, may
! make their opposition effective?
'Of course there is a way.
j The representativeb of the peo-
pie in Congress, not the President,
have control over this fjuesiion.The
I thing for the Wets to do in Ore
;gon or In any other state. Is to or
'ganlze and work for the election
iof wet senators and congressmen,
i This is not only an effective
course to pursue but a perfectly
' legitimate one. And if as most
; of our wet friends maintain a
'' majority of the American people
1 are opposed to Prohibition, such
a program would bring immediate
: results. Not immediate repeat of
the Dry Daw for there more than
a majority is needed, but for mod
i iftcation of the Volstead Act,
which can be brought about,
whenever, and not until a ma
jority in the Congress, so decide.
If Smith ami Hoover were run
ning for- Congress, there Is no
doubt that Dr. Butler would work
and vote for Smith, for tho elec
tion of Smith would then mean
something. But he refuses to vote
for Smith for President, because
he reullzes, his election, as fur as
Prohibition is concerned 'would
mean nothing, und on the other
hand he believes the defeat of
Hoover and the Republican parly,
would mean a great deal, as far
hh business disorganization, and a
halt In our economic development
is concerned.
To sum tip:
Dr. Butler, as befits a "think
ing man" and uncompromising
; wet, has figured It all out. He has
j placed on ono side his emotional
satisfaction at casting ax vote for a
(President who believes as he does
jon I'rohibition, but who could do
'nothing without a wet congress.
And on the other side he placed
- what he regards as the results of
j Secrotaiy Hoover's election from
I his standpoint of what Is " -at for
the country."
j And he has decided the beue
j fits front Hoover's election, far ov
erbalance any possible benefits
i from Smith's election.
We don't share Dr. Butler's
j premises, but we believe he is ab
solutely right in his conclusions.
The other day we wrote a letter
without any politics at all, which
was really iulte an achievement.
So today 'to balance the ledger
wo have written one which, as we
read it over-, appears to be "noth
ing else hut." TOO HAD, TOO

Press Comment
' Til F. END OF PROHIBITION
j The democratic New York Times
i allays the fears of those wets who
ifear that an anti-prohibition presi
dent would make no headway
against the dry laws and tho eigh-
teenth amendment. Tho success
iof Governor Smith, that paper be
jlieves, would greatly change the
i complexion of congress and the
'vole would be regarded to some
'extent as a referendum on prohibi
tion. The Times continues:
t The victory would sweep in
many wet congressmen. Even
in states which the republi
cans would carry, such as
Pennsylvania, the wet issue
would lose them seats in con
gress. Dry congressmen elect- "
ed after hard fights would
take note of the changing
popular sentiment. ... A
large percentage of congress
men would hesitate to go
against the recommendation ,t''
of a popular ly chosen presi- X
dent.
Concluding Its editorial the
Times says:
If the wet candidate Is
elected, the whole profession
al prohibition structure begins
to crumble, tho Ant 1 -Saloon
league is destroyed as a na
tional force and politicians in
congress and out will look to
the new leader of the people
as their guide and their hope
of retaining office.
This may be some consolation,
as the Times desires it should be,
to those voters who place their af
firmative position on the wet issue
ahead of everything else. However
It will not ease -the difficult posi
tion of dry Democrats, such tt-s 1
