ngfin^ the enforcement of prohibition from which
we could never recover." according to Mr. H. R. Kan-
-caster, whom communication on the subject appears
on this page. Mr. Kaneester expresses the fear that
the saloons might be reopened under the adminis-
tration of Governor Smith, and saya he expect* to
vote against him "and the return of the saloons"

thorities are not enforcing the law. and the federal
authorities are net rnnouraging them to do so. In
bther suites the conditions are even worse. Prohi-
bition is nationwide. Jbut nowhere is there a deter-
mined effort to enforce prohibition. The real issue,
therefore, is pot the open saloon but the blind tiger.

and the bootlegger who sells his pr>‘*r*vtrt'« liquor to

who laughs at the national and state Constitutions,
the Volstead set. the Dean lev and other prohibitive
legislation.
Governor Smith and his party have prmnliail that
there will oe a more vigorous enforcement of the
prohibition laws than this nation has ever known if
the Democratic party is successful in November. Mr.
Hoovef and the Republican party hove premised to
enforce the lew also, but In the background of that
promise there is the indisputable record of abject
failure to enforce the law that has been made by
the Harding apd Ooohdge administration*, of which
Mr Hoover has been an important part. What they
have failed to do in eight years they can not do in
four years. A thorough house-eteantog la needed In
Washington, so that prohibition enforcement can be
reorganized' and an ininlllgswl and determined ef-
fort mad* to insure popular roepect for the laws of
the country. . \ '
Elect Mr. Hoover and liquor will continue to be
as plentiful as it is today. Elect Mr. Smith and all
the power of the federal government will be exercised
in-a determined effort to give this country what the
Eighteenth Amendment promises. The issue is pro-
hibition enforced.
The Democrats hold a record for delivering clgh-

Whenever more then an hour ps^-cs without, re-
