LIBERTY amd LICENSE The principal argument against! prohibition, if we may juifrG; by tlie chatter of a pained and regretful i press, is not based on the merits-of i .the A'olstead Act* but en .'tfcfe fact that a lot of folks %*iolato it, *and therefore, they nhiyely argue, _ it shculd be repealed or modified. ^"?he"logic-is similar to that follow-, cd. by Gap Johnson in dealing with his favorite coon'dog"Boze, Kit out of the house," he orders. Boze promtly tucks lrs tail and Starts under the bed. 'fGit under the bed, then," Gap Amends. And Boze does. Thus is ob C-dience obtained and authority stuffed with the sawdust of self-respect. It is not hard to * understand the position of those who want prohibition changed and .give as tHnr re'aron that ,\vp have bootleggers, moonshiners, home hebchefs. jileiral withdrawals and .liquor served on American ships: 1 % ; . tco, are annoyed by a Jot . .of byvYTwe do not want to obey. .The 'it of those restrictive measures that cramp cut- style is lengthy. Many a time we hhye wanted to da a great public service with a tenton mtqfnr .truck.'Oih* id^ is to bolt a locomotive 'dew catchor securely to the* front of the truck, attach scimitars to- the wheels and go out to teach the. road hog a thins or two. But^TE is against the law. That jaw must be amended. Neietfoor PHU has a horse that we need badly and the c^nt^ary cuss* will not sell it, though he has less use for it than we have. We are ,biger -than.he is and could quite handily go over and-take the* horse'and' give it n proper home, but tHa laws abridpe our freedem in this regard. And so it goes. A lot of laws abridge our liberties.
