New York, July 25.—-Within five years—yes, within two years—sever/ Southern states will havs declared for prohibition and driven legalized whisky traffic from their borders."

Fifty-seventh street and roadway. "Georgia will begin the good work," continued Dr. Broughton, "tomorrow when the state prohibition bill will pass the lower Jiouse of/he legislature and go to the governor for his signa ture, which It undoubtedly will receive. "Within the next two years Virginia, Tennessee, South Carolina, Florida, Al abama, Mississippi will follow Georgia's example and place drastic prohibition measures upon their statute books." When asked the causes of Die pro hlbltlon wave which is sweeping over the South, Dr. Broughton said emphat. Ically: “The negro question undoubtedly Is the most Important thing that has con tributed to make Georgia a prohibition state, and the other states will follow In our footsteps. A vast majority of the race frictions In the South may be attributed to the liquor traffic. With few exceptions, the crimes which led to lynching are due directly or Indirect ly to whisky. The people of the South are coming to realize that the aboli tion of the whisky traffic Is an essen tial preliminary to the settlement of the rare question, and It Is In a large meas ure due to this conviction that tne growth of the prohibition sentiment may be attributed."
