Away back from my youthful days, up till now, 1 have always advocated and sup- ported nil measures calculated to improve the condition of our people, and one oi‘ the tiriiiclpal means of accomplishing this. in my opinion. is to reduce to u minimum, oppor- tunities for the use oi strong drink. l have nlwnys policy of Prohibition, because I felt herein W85 the means by which :he abuse of strong drink could be prevented. and l still am a believer ln the fact that the only way to prevent absolutely the use of alco- hol is prohibition, and by that tern- l mean the prohibiting of the manu- [ncture and importation, as well an the use of liquor. in no other way is it possible to have prohibition enforced. itituted that there is alwoysa large Dercctitage of men who desire a stimulant, and if they do not get it in one form they take it in another. if they cannot get it legally, they will obtain it illegally. if it ls to be wbtained at all.
