Cover has some wear and soiling. This is a compilation of speeches, newspaper and magazine articles. The author was a former Congressman, and the Prohibition Candidate for President in 1932. In Congress, Upshaw supported the creation of the United States Department of Education and was focused on eliminating what he considered alien doctrines from public education, such as Bolshevism. He was known as the "Billy Sunday of Congress" and his "colorful, bizarre antics" as a Congressman. Upshaw was supported politically by the most powerful names in Southern Protestantism, including evangelist Bob Jones, Sr., the founder of what eventually became Bob Jones University. William David Upshaw (October 15, 1866 - November 21, 1952) served eight years in Congress (1919-1927), where he was such a strong proponent of the temperance movement that he became known as the "driest of the drys." In Congress, Upshaw was a staunch defender of the Ku Klux Klan, which was founded in his congressional district, and lost reelection because of major KKK scandals in the mid 1920s. In 1932, he ran for President of the United States on the Prohibition Party ticket, finishing the race in fifth place. Upshaw's political career began when became involved with the prohibition movement. He served as vice-president of the Georgia Anti-Saloon League in 1906 and played a major role in passage of statewide prohibition in that state in 1907, making it the first dry state in the Southern United States. The defense of prohibition was a major factor in the establishment of the second Ku Klux Klan ("Klan of the 1920s") in 1915. The KKK coordinated its activities with the anti-saloon league to enforce prohibition. According to the Georgia Historical Society, Upshaw was never proven to be a KKK member, but there was "little doubt" that he was a member. Upshaw was in frequent contact with leaders of the KKK in Georgia. In 1922, Upshaw came out strongly against a federal anti-lynching bill. He made several strong speeches against the bill, making racial remarks and arguing in favor of states rights. He was a key political leader opposing to federal laws intending to crack down on the KKK.
