More than half the south's territory is dry, absolutely, and in the remaining area the sale of intoxicants is restricted. It is evident that the cities are the only remaining strongholds for the saloons and it is unlikely that this condition will be modified except through a radical change in political thought, through failure to enforce the laws against the traffic, and perhaps o;hd- obstacles which follow in the wake of prohibition. Georgia for a yean has been experimenting with a near prohibition" law forbidding the sale of liquors containing more than 4 per cent al cohol. State-widprohibition laws become effective January 1 in North Caro-lino-, Alabama and Mississippi. Prohibition advocates In Louisiana have suspended their fight to test tbe new law for the regulation of the liquor traffic. Tennessee is the chief center of interest among the other states where state-widprohibition fights are in progress. The prohibitionists assert that a state-widbill will pass the legislature which they expect to organize and control. Kentucky, the second largest distilling state In the Union, with 119 counties, has but four In which the sale of liquor is not prohibited. Virginia presents a string of victories for elements, as prohibition now exists in eighty of the states one hundred counties. In Texas, where more than half the counties have accepted prohibition, the voters soon will be called upon to vote upon a constitutional amendment for prohibition. s of Its area, In Arkansas are dry, cr seventy-fivcounties, and the question of state-widprohibition will be presented to the voters for discussion. The results of prohibition generally are gleaned from reports Indicating a great decrease in the record SOUTHERN ITALY U. S.
