EDUCATORS BLAMED ' FOR PART OF DRY LAW VIOLATIONS Large Ecetions of Public Declared Unconvinced as to Value of 1 ProMbition Act. Washington, Sept. 17. The fact that a large part of the public re-( mains "unconvinced with r ference to the liquor traffic," coup d with failure of the federal government lo make any "adequate effort" t en forcement, and delinquency of the1 churches in continuing temperance education were held responsible for j the present prohibition Bituation in j findings made public Friday night by I the research and education depart-! rrent of the Federal Council of Churches. ' These conclusions were announced j by the department in making public j the last installment of its special re-! port on the social consequences of j prohibition, compiled after an ex-1 haustive investigation. Other por-j tions of the report have been irado public previously during the last .week. ! Churches and Schools Challenged I In view of the, government's recent, 'enforcement reorganisation, the pres- j ent situation was declared to present "an unprecedented challenge" to the churches and schoois. The "delin quency" of the former in carrying on the temperance work begun long be fore prohibition was described as "perhaps even greater than that of the federal government." I "A new opportunity is et hand," concluded the report. "The crisis that has developed In the enforcement of prohibition calls for a frank facing of facts and a new assumption of re- -Isponsibility." i "The federal government has an- inouneed a right-about-face on en forcement policy. That is the gov ernment's task. It is not its task to i change the minds of the people. Ite 'Jigion and education must do that. 'Nothing but energetic and sustained (educational effort can atone for past jnegligence." i Some Areas Oppose Dry Law With regard to the attitude of the public, the report presented the re- isults of a number of polls among var ious elements of Americans, but commented that figures could form i little basis for definite conclusions, j "It may be said with a good deal j assurance," the investigators contin ued, "that many populous sections of the country wouiu now reveise nc verdict if they had the chance, but there is much reason to believe that most of the states, taken as a whole, would still vote affirmatively. The attitude of the smaller communities and the rural sections is difficult to discover.. The most recent evidence of the trend of popular opinion was the approval by referendum in Mas sachusetts, in November, 1924, of a law similar to the Volstead act. The majority was small, but it reversed a considerable adverse majority of two years before.
