1. That our Baptist churches and pastors press forward diligently and unceasingly in the work of informing and educating all classes concerning the evil effects on the human body and brain of all alcoholic drinks and of the financial wreckage and moral ruin that everywhere follows the habitual use of intoxicating liquors. The means of such education are many and varied. We urge that all of them be used to the limit.
2. That we approve the Guyer Bill providing for prohibition in the District of Columbia, and the Capper-Culkin Bill to prohibit the interstate advertising of liquors whether by newspapers or over the radio or otherwise, and, we urge the enactment of these two bills with promptness by Congress.
3. That we record our pleasure and satisfaction in the recent decision of the United States Supreme Court declaring the constitutional right of each state to exercise complete control over the importation and transportation of intoxicating liquors for delivery or use within its bounds.
4. That we reaffirm our belief that a political unit, of whatever size, should have the right to rid itself of the liquor evil by a majority vote. This should not confer upon the smaller political unit the right to establish the liquor traffic against the will of the majority in the larger unit, as is now being urged by many liquor advocates. We urge that, whenever any state legalizes the traffic, in whatever form, this policy be embodied in the legislation and used as rapidly and widely as possible for driving liquor out and increasing dry territory.
5. That we urge the dry forces throughout the nation to secure as rapidly as possible legislation to accomplish the following: (1) The removal of the sale of liquor from all unpoliced areas. (2) The elimination of the sale of liquors from all gasoline filling stations and airports at which the sale of liquors is most anomalous and most destructive. (3) More adequate legislation to protect the public against the drinking driver who is increasing so frightfully the number of highway accidents and fatalities. (4) To secure a more accurate and adequate classification of accidents and crime and the relation of the consumption of liquor thereto, and the more uniform and adequate publication of such data.
6. That we deplore the failure of the present National Administration to keep its solemn and repeated promises to enforce by appropriate legislation the second section of the 21st Amendment for the protection of dry states, and we call upon the President and the Congress to keep faith with the people and to redeem these promises.
7. That we stand unalterably committed to the principle of prohibition and the belief that it is a crime for any government, national, state or local, to license or sponsor the traffic in alcoholic beverages. We are determined by the use of every available and proper means to accomplish the extermination of the beverage liquor traffic.
