Cherrington favored education over the coersive use of force to bring about Prohibition and sobriety, a position in direct opposition to that of Anti-Saloon leader Wayne Wheeler . Following a number of name changes, the league is now the American Council On Alcohol Problems .

Cherrington remained active in temperance activities until shortly before his death in 1950.
