Washington, D. C.. June 14— (A P )
Senator Horah of Idaho, who has
taken up thr fight against nullifica­
tion of the 18th amendment, said to­
day that in hit opinion the country's
experience* with the constitutional
amendments giving full civic rights
to the Negro did not indicate that
one relating to prohibition could be
successfully nullified.
Recently the senator was misquot­
ed iu an article published here as say­
ing that emancipation of the Negro
at the time he was emancipated was
a mistake.
What he did say was
that it was unjust to the whites and
unjust to the Negro to enfranchise
him without permitting him to work
<>ut through tune and education his
franchise.
"Much is now being said about the
14th and 15th amendments,”
the
Idaho senator said in a statement to­
day
“ It is said in some quarters
that the 14th and 15th amendments
are being nullified and therefore the
18th amendment could likewise be
nullified.
"I think the enfranchisement of the
Negro at the time and in the man­
ner it was brought about was a great
mistake.
It was unjust to the
whiles and unfair to thr Negro.
It
put upon the latter a burden for
which he was wholly unprepared and
because he could not meet that bur­
den hr has been severely criticised.
It would have been far better if we
had followed the advice of Lincoln
and granted the right to vote as the
colored man prepared for it.
