(Pj Hepresentatlve A, Piatt An
' drew, Republican, of Gloucester,
believes some way other than tho
' eighteenth amendment should be
- sought lo deal with the problem
of prohibition.
His concern, ho said in an art
! dress beforo a Joint meeting of
' liotary club's hero last night, w&s
"the eighteenth amendment as it
'., is, not as It might have been had
; it been possible to carry it out
an many in tho beginning had
hoped.
lie said the eighteenth amend
ment has brought "some very im-
portnnt" benefits, but declared, "it
has undermined the people's re
gard for the basic charter of our
' institutions. It has impaired thir
k respect for law and government.
A "It i corrupting their standards
of straightforward and honest liv
ing. It hears upon the poor but
not the rich."

of all laws."
In an effort to carry out the
president's original proposal, he
ulil, "a: letter addressed to tho
responsible heads of every national
organisation and committee known
to be -concerned with prohibition,
whether, proor con, bespeaking
their support and asKhvg for their
opinions and suggestions, brought
an amazing and disillusioning re
sponse, "Not a single representative of
any of the organizations commonly
spoken of a 'dry' expressed any
thing but hostility of the proposal,
and some of them replied in terms
of harsh and bitter condemnation
that might appropriately have
been applied to the projects of a
gangster or a racketeer."
