Shortly after the Civil war we began our machine power era and It was the realization by Indus try and commerce that liquor was an obstacle to their expansion. The mor al welfare forces of our nation at that period were supported by legis lative enactments In bringing scien tific knowledge to she doorsteps of the people to enable them to meet the exactions and emergencies of the mechanized regime; to protect them against the vast concentrations of machinery and wealth rising on every side and converting the once Inde pendent massea Into tenants and em ployees. The liquor trade had Itself been made the subject of mass pro duction, and it was the scientific in struction In our public schools throughout the entire nation, which trained a body of voters to vote for a constitutional amendment to out law a traffic whose sole purpose then and today is, greed and avarice at the expense of public morals. From Sinai with Its crown of fire came Ideals that have remained In human statutes through the centuries de spite the continuous and wholesale violations. Most of them are prohi bitions including "Thou aha It not murder and thou ahait not kill," and yet the 18th amendment repeats those objectives In another form when It says In effect "Thou ah alt not give men drink that .makes them murder and induces them to steal.''

When Christ was here 930 was the price of a man. What Is it today, friends? Joy Elmer Morgan, president of the National Education association, said In a re cent address to fellow educators: "The American people want bread, not beer. They want leadership, not surrender. They want to go forward, not back ward. They want constructive not destructive policies. They want high er standards, not lower."
