."When the saloon doors close on the

to open again. The passage of the wartime-
prohibition bill Is one of the Rrentesi
victories ever Achieved for the protec

not rest until nation-wide prohibition be
comes a permanent Institution1.
Discussing the War-time Prohibition,
bill, Mr.. Chalfant said:
"While thn bill wh'eh was pasrd ty i
the Senate, and which. It l umWxIootl, .
will be approved by President Wilson,
provides only for wartime prohibition. '
yet it means the end of the liquor tralllc

Constitutional pronlliitioii has been
ratified by fourteen States already, and
there Is now no nitration In the minds
of our leader that -the other twenty
two States Mill be secured before March
1, 1D19. That means that constitutional
prohibition will become effective Af-irch
1. 1920. It Is hardly pisllil that the
war will be end'd and demoblll7.atl?n
completed previous to Match 1!I20.
Therefore, It Is our firm belief tli.. when
the saloon dootH close on the n'Rht of

again.
