FALLACY is an appar* ently genuine but really illogical statement or argument. PROHIBITIONISTS have been circulating the FALLACY in newspapers that, because 7 minor States were placed under "dry" laws thi~> year, it was evident public sentiment upholds that idea. A few FACTS, however, tabulated from Census data by that well-known writer, Mr. Clinton Wunder, should sufciice to disabuse the minds of those'imposed upon: UJ N the 1914 vote on State-wide Prohibition the . 4t:? . :iriW ..^.>/.s■; 11 1 total 'dry' majority in the States of Arizona. Colorado, -j {••■•?.••• .• : ; Oregon, Virginia and Washington was 100.203. Meartirr.e 'kg/ gj the 'wet' majority in the States of California, Ohio and Texas Mil lopula.tion 111 U was 273,757. Thus, the majority of votes against Prohibition M™' « q " 2 U pi in the three States that refused the proposition in 1314 was JJry states H more than twice as large as the majority of votes fcr the 's 4-^3-OTI 3 b; proposition in the five States that adopted Prohibition. ITI HP HE 16 States that have tried Prohibition within the past m 1 65 years and returned to the license system have a com- £^7UaSat 3 n bined population of 38,632,302. Add Texas and California, ] p g' H which rejected Prohibition, and the combined population that oA has repudiated the impractical idea is 40,v58,304. The 19 I States that are either now under Prohibition laws, or which 1 --vaA. so declared themselves, have a combined population of J 27,344,013 - " [ F the States are taken as a whole, as Pronibitionists do in j| H 1 claiming territory and population living under Prohibition law, whether the people like it or not, nearly twice as many States have tried and rejected the imposition as those that arc now trying it, and the growth of the idea is backward a* well as forward. Fthe 19 States that voted "dry" the total population was pf Oft Oft lOTIS: 27,344,013, while the total population of those States that I voted to remain "wet" was 64,628,253. [////'/■ THE Prohibitionist's FALLACY is thus met by the FACT that there are almost three times as many people b/z/XSKk in the United States living in "wet" territory as there are in Wet y D*vl | -Ayurit-T. • \S&\ 2 Pennsylvania State Brewers' Association To the Heart of Leisureland where woods are cool, streams alluring, vacations ideal.
