Mr. Chairman. I was particularly interested in a statement made recently by the gentleman from New York relative to prohibition America. During the past 12 years or- 15 years the greatest strides that have ever been made in any nation have been made in America. This is the only nation that is having to prevent immigration to any appreciable extent. It is the nation to which nearly all foreigners desire to come it being the richest of all nations. yet it is the only prohibition nation in the world. It would not appear that prohibition has ruined America. I just want to predict thisand that is why I desired recognitionthat the national political party that adopts a plank in its platform providing for the repeal of the eighteenth amendment will be defeated next November.
