Prohibition arguments doubt its practicability and value
In a lengthy defense of temperance, the writer argues that state prohibition would be impracticable and unenforceable without broad public support. He contrasts murder and arson laws with liquor bans, urges moral influence and public opinion to curb drinking, and suggests adjusting license taxes to favor lighter beverages. He concludes with cautious support if lawmakers back enforcement.
