Whan the voters of the Golden State the greatest wine pro2ucln State In the Union at the recent ction aprunr the biggest surprise ?tc California, went Democratic ana returned Woodrow Wilson to -he Preoldentlal chair, and by referendum voted for State enforcement cf the Volstead act. the measure d!d rot Immediately become effective. Its effectiveness dates five days from the completion of the official State canvass of the vote. This -anvasa tvlll boffla early In December and Is expected to be completed about December 20. Thus on Christmas day the State enforcement measure -win go into effect.
Bootleggers and dry law evaders are not kidding themselves Into beileving that the law of the State vm not be enforced and will be a fad letter. This was indicated by the effect of announcement that the measure had carried by at least J6.000 votes after first being reported snowed under two to one by adverse rotes. Bootleggers promptly oosted rxlce They dociared Dm risks of their business would Increase 100 per cent with enactment f-t the State law. Many made prompt arrangements to get cut e." b'jslnts.
the eve of election with a "Women's March of Allegiance." They had no floats or bands, but only banners of simple design urging: lftw enforcement and constitutional adherence.
Kathleen Norrli. famous novelist, was the leader of the campaign, tjiie spoke ell over the State and threw into her campaigning the same energy and ability she has Riven to creating hooka in the past. Incidentally, the victory of th drys has given rise to a mild rontrcv - over the title her followers applied to her In victory. They cait,d her the Joan of Arc of the temperance movement in California. Sea -eel y was the ink dry on the papers chronicling this appeiation than Frs. Rosalie F.ooney. president .! tho Women's National Association of Personal Liberty, sprang !uU print to claim the title.
The law, modeled almost in duplicate of the VolsUad act, ylacts the enforcement of prohibition siuarely in the haads o: the rc'iro ar.d sheriffs cf the State. Hitherto they l.aa been able to pass over Volstead law vlolat'oti3 with an easy conscience because the Federal authorities only were charred with enforcement. Boolleg-gers and their places o business were well known to the police an.i local officers, but It was rot their bu'n?ss to check the lawlessness. Now thet It Is there peems to be no question that they will enforce the State law. The State courts win handle the cases wf h roa'er s ped and convictions ""Hi be oVtalr.ed In cases where they F? by default !n the federal courts through lor delay.
MY. Iteoney led the campaign among ths women against the Wright measure. Why, I've been called the Jean of Arc of this ftsht fclnce 1919." eho pretested. "I led the march up the steps of the Capitol in Washington in March. 1S19, to protest against prohibition End the crowd hailed nie an the Jean cf Arc of the prohibition fight then and there. And I've be n fiphtlng: ever slr.ee. Who was Joan of Arc anyway? Wasn't' slu1 leading a fight against oppression? Tint's fust what I'm doing."

that her battle was won without battling for any titles.
