Let us sec how this applies to prohibition. In the May "Signal” we find this : Professor Irving Fischer has been unable to find any econo mist who opposes prohibition. Prohibi tion has been called the child of Big Business^ Industries have recognised the necessity of abstinence and what prohibition has done for them. But to tell the truth, "Big Business” is not sufficienty interested in the maintainanke of prohibition. Tbc burden of establishing the policy, fix ing it in the conviction of the people, strengthening it in local politics should be undertaken by business men who realize how essentia] prohi bition is to continued prosperity. These men should know that the nullification movement proceeds largely from men who see the possi- bility of establishing a five billion dollar trade in beer, light wines, etc., and there is little they arc not willing to do to provide means for such enormous profits. Where would the automobile business be if s five bil lion dollar liquor trade were estab lished? What would become of the motion picture business and other amusement industries? Have not the dry goods, the grocery, and other in dustries a vital concern in preventing such a drain on business as would be inevitable is suloons were found on the corners of our streets? Prohibition means millions to busi ness men, the least they can do is support it. They ought to bring every pressure to bear to ytop ridicule and misrepresentation of prohibition by public agencies, stop selling hip pock- ej flasks, and other things that UNION RECORDER.

They ought to have a clear understanding with the legislative, judicial, and executive branches of the government, and in sist on cooperation in all methods of enforcement. What applies to big business applies to the individual. These things carried out would mean patriotism in prohibition. The true patriot will pray for de liverance from all litllene*«, narrow ness, prejudice or hate; he will pray for the love of humanity and the spirit of service. The true patriot votes as well as fights and does it much oftener. Many an ardent patriot who would die for hiy coun try in times of danger is not enough interested in her welfare to vote in times of peace. He should vote and be sure he votes right to help prohi bition and to prevent the nullifica tion of the law and then live every day what he says he believes.
