19331172New Haven: Connecticut Branch W. O. N. P. R. 1933. Broadside. 7" x 10 1/4. Single sheet printed on one side. Slight age toning. Fine condition. This is an original handbill from a major women's group soliciting votes to repeal Prohibition in 1933.<br /> <br /> Women's organizations--particularly the Women's Christian Temperance Union--are strongly associated with passage of the 18th Amendment to the U. S. Constitution and the national ban on alcoholic beverages it brought in 1919. The major role women played in getting Prohibition repealed is not as widely recognized however.<br /> <br /> This handbill was issued by the Connecticut Branch of the Women's Organization for National Prohibition Reform W.O.N.P.R. The W.O.N.P.R. was organized in 1929 by women who could no longer ignore the destructive if unintended consequences of Prohibition. <br /> <br /> Here voters are asked to vote for ratification of the 21st Amendment reminding them that "A Vote for Ratification is a Vote for Repeal!" and "A Vote for Ratification is a Vote for Good Government Lower Taxes and Liquor Control." <br /> <br /> The efforts of the W.O.N.P.R. and other repeal groups were successful and Prohibition was repealed with the ratification of the 21st Amendment in December of 1933.<br /> <br /> A tangible piece of Prohibition and women's history. Connecticut Branch, W. O. N. P. R. unknown

[4], 5-254, [2], 8 [ads], pages. This portion of Carr's life story begins after his experience as a submariner in WWI. He serves as an officer of the Mercantile Marine and experiences incredible adventures and hardships before deciding to move his young family from England to New Brunswick. Times are tough in his new land. He describes the local poverty and exposes the awful social problems of rural New Brunswick, as well as his dramatic adventures at work, with a local trapper and as a member of the C.P.R. police. In short, Carr was a man's man and this book is full of manly adventures. Later in life, Carr [1895-1959] became very concerned about what he viewed as plans for world government and wrote Pawns in the Game and Red Fog Over America, books which sold by the hundreds of thousand. The present work is vital in understanding the background and motivations of this fascinating man. Above-average wear to publisher's black cloth. Binding intact. Gift greetings upon front free endpaper. Spine leaning. Dust jacket not included. Not pretty but a worthy reading copy. Book

188656938Olympia W.T.: Thomas H. Cavanaugh Public Printer 1886. 8vo. 555 5 xxvii 1 xv 1 ix 1 pp. Contemporary full calf red black & gilt morocco spine labels minor uniform toning some edgewear minor bumping to corners still VG copy from the library of Bates & Burnett law firm with William Charles Bates 1885-1973 and Milton L. Burnett 1887-1972 who operated for decades in Vancouver WA from before World War I and moved their firm into the Charles Brown historic house in 1945 beginning a local trend of using older homes for professional buildings and George W. Yocum 1827-1890 longtime Portland attorney. First edition of this rare Washington Territory lawbook including the January 29 1886 Alien Land Ownership law which was the only anti-Chinese measure to pass the legislature as well as two laws related to Prohibition advocated by newly empowered women’s suffrage voters. The Alien Land laws emerged out of the anti-Chinese riots in Tacoma WA in November 1885 when labor organizations such as the Knights of Labor with the aid of the Pierce County Sheriff succeeded in forcing all of the Chinese residents out of town as well as torching their homes. Building on the 1882 Federal Chinese Exclusion Acts the Territorial Legislature specifically excluded any “Alien†who were “incapable of becoming citizens of the United States†could neither own land or convey title of properties to heirs. Unfortunately for the Chinese in Seattle this failed to placate socialist firebrands suffragettes & Knights of Labor advocates Laura Hall Peters and Mary Kenworthy or the equally charismatic Knights of Labor organizer Daniel Cronin. In February 1886 hundreds of working-class white men and women on the pretense of enforcing local health regulations condemned buildings in Seattle’s Chinatown and herded over 350 Chinese residents down to the Seattle docks and demanded they ship out. About 200 Chinese embarked for San Francisco and another had to wait six days for another ship setting off a riot and declaration by Washington Territory Governor Squire and President Grover Cleveland. The “Local Option†law passed by the Territorial Legislature in 1886 garnered huge opposition from saloon owners and cases brought resulted in the 1888 ruling against “Local Option†by the Territorial Supreme Court returning the power back to city councils and county commissioners.
