Butler Asks
Repeal of the
Volstead Law
Columbia Head Comes Out Flatly for
.. . the. Abolishment of the
.-' L -. , i Amendment.
'-New York. ' April "' 28. Nicholas
Murray l Butler,. 4 president of Colum
bia -university; declared tonight that
the, Anti-Saloon, league is the most
pernicious enemy, of the republic that
has-been produced 'in my life time."
."Mr. .Cutler,- speaking, at the an
nual dinner of tlie Psi Upsilon club,
said that the : league has United
States senators and representatives
o its payroll the 35 million dol
lars they: boasted about the other
day.. in Washington" and paid their
expenses in .transporting them about
the county to speak in favor of pro
hibition. .He said that if such a thing were
done by the feteel corporations or by
banking interests' "there would be
a hue and a cry that would reach
high heaven." 3 . .
air. Butler, .who previously had
denied the efficacy of the prohibition
amendment, came out tonight flatly
for its repeal. He said it cannot bo
enforced "without violating the bill
of rights, the constitution statutes
as old as the hills."
Compares Its Future.
"The eighteenth, amendment." he
said, "is invalid and outside the scope
Of the amending power of the Amer
ican congress. .It Is a political ques
tion that the people must get out of
the constitution,; or pay the penalty."
He urged the amendment's repeal
so that each slate might then take
up' the question and settle it locally.
Mr. Butler compared the future
of the eighteenth amendment to the
history of the fourteenth and fifteen
th amendments, enacted to assure
equal protection of the laws to Ne
groes and to grant them the ballot.
These amendments, he said, are prac
tically invalid in large sections of
the country.
"You .are face to face with two
things," he ss.id. "You've get to
let the prohibition amendment go the
way of the fourteenth or fifteenth
amendment, or repeal it. If it goes
the way of the fourteenth and
fifteenth, what is the effect going to
be on the youth? How will it con
tribute to the crime movement?
"We must repeal the Volstead act,
return to truth, decency., common
sense and law observance. It violates
all-r it was intended to violate all
of them. The men that drew it knew
what it would do."
Mr. Butler expressed the- belief
that public opinion, -has .been abso
lutely reversed., on., tho.,- prohibition
question in. the lasCye'ar and "ti6w
favors it repeal.
He said he- hacT just come from
Georgia, where "it is illegd for a
physician to prescribe whiskey for a
dying patient consequently every
body has it."' He says he believes
the south and west will favor its re
peal if the question is "presented to
them properly."

WEshinston. April 28. A broad
side of democratic criticism was fired'
today in the senate against the 165
million dollar public buildings bill,
which, was defended by Senator Len
root (rco., Wis.) , j
The measure, as it passed the house,
was assniled by Senator Robinson; the
democratic leader, as a powerful po-,
litical we3pon.and attacked by Sen
ator Mayfield (dam., Tex.) as discrim-'
inating .-(gainst 42 states, ' mostly
southern and western.'
Under the propor.il 13 million dol
lars would be epxeneled for the con
struction of government buildings
authorized in 1913, but not yet built,"
f0 million dollars for structures in
the -District of Columbia,' and th re
maining ICO million dollars for post
offices and cthor buildings in localities
chosen by the secretary of the treas
ury and the postmaster general.
."Political influence, unronlined;
will decide when and where the
building shall be constructed," Sena-
tor Robinson declared. "Communities
would be advised that if they elect
a congressman from the right party
me.v v. in fc,v.L .i iu.iv.
if thev do not elect the right congress
man, some other community will get
priority in the matter of a building',
"Xo administration, democrat or re-
pu.iwjc.il. onuiui aiyx,
"would prostitute itself to the extent
outlined by Senator Robinson." .
Senator Uayfield said that 72 mil
lion dollars of the 100 million dollars
for use outside of the capital would.
be expended in six states New York'.?,
Pennsylvania. Connecticut, Ilinois,1.?.
Culifornia and Ohio. The remaining .
2S million dollars would be expended'.?,

nue service and had influence in. offi
cial circles.

ute which prevents any federal em
ploye of taking advantage of any
knowledge gained while in the em
ploy of the federal government.
