'"W -FOR Light Wines and Beer ' No Saloons ESffSSi . .. The nation-wide industrial depression is causing voters to ask themselves which is better--to submit to added taxes and decreased Governmental revenues running into billions of dollars (which is the result of the Volstead law)--or to restore light wines and beer, the taxes upon which will help to pay the nation** expenses and thereby ligftggfc den upon our citizens. *> Dry leaders are sending out a smokescreen statement that the drys will not vote on the wines and beer referee* dum, hoping to catch the wets napping. This is the first opportunity the sovereign citizens of Illinois have ever ^ had to register their disapproval of the tragedy of prohibition. Resolve to disregard this dry camouflage and encourage every patriot to rise in defense of our ancient rights and. liber ties, and cast your vote on November 7th next, not only for light wines and beer, but make it effective by voting for Edward J.

In 1860 the largest gas holder in this country held but two million cubic feet of gas. Today holders are built with a capacity of fifteen million cubic feet. If the gas now used annually by the American people were all made and stored at once, just for one day, it would require a tank large eaough to cover the entire State of Rhode Island and more than fifteen feet high to hold it all.
