| may again bring prohibition into the
■! political arena.
In the laboratory of political experi-
j mentation we are going to experiment
j "gain with liquor. The old formulas
that were tried before prohibition will
i have to be revised. They were not
i -taisfaclory; alcoholic liquors mixed
j with, graft, combined with political
| corruption, permeated with prostitu-
i lion, gave off such noxious odors that
I the people of this country rebelled a-
, !"ain t the horrible stench. They will
.close down the works again unless the
political chemists c.on find some for-
mula that will be less objectionable.
lf the sale of alcoholic liquor can
be made subservient to the operation
of law; if the business can be kept
from corrupting politics, from allying
itself with the underworld, from de-
bauching the people in an insane greed
for profits; if the liquor business can
!v kept a legitimate business for sup-
plying the demand of those who want
liquor then it will be allowed to
operate. .Meanwhile prohibition is in
j abeyance. It is not dead.
