BEGINS WORK ON SECOND THOUSAND

Context - explained by ACL:

The "Committee of 1000 Protests" has begun collecting its second thousand protests against the initiative, and its members believe a large vote will be cast against the measure. The item reports that Montana is one of six states where the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment is seeking to repeal enforcement legislation and leave enforcement to the federal authorities, and that committee leaders say the Woman's clubs, the teachers association and other civic and social organizations in the county have gone on record in opposition.

The "Committee of 1000 Protests" has begun the obtaining of its second thousand protests, and committee members believe that with the interest being aroused against Initiative No. 30 a tremendous vote will be cast against it.

Montana is one of six states where an attempt is being made by the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment to repeal all enforcement legislation, and to throw enforcement solely upon the federal authorities. In three other states referendums are being held with the avowed purpose of testing the sentiment of the people.

In this county the Woman's clubs, teachers' association and many other civic and social organizations, committee leaders say, have gone on record as opposing the amendment. The "Committee of 1000 Protests" asserts that all it wants is for the people to get the facts and think the matter over. If that is done, committee workers believe the voters will overwhelmingly defeat Initiative No. 30.
