Volstead: Let Wets Rule!

Chase: Repeal Vote Null!

Andrew J. Volsterd

Canon Wm. S, Chase While the states vote on repealing Prohibition, Andrew J. Volstead, father of the enforcement act, declined a post on the Minnesota liquor control board saying: "Those who have opposed prohibition have posed as friends of temperance. I am willing to give them a chance to make good. They ought to have a free hand to deal with the matter." Canon William S. Chase, dry leader, declares that the repeal votes by alates are unconstitutional and that aetion will be led to declare them so.
