A LETTER written by William j.
OnAhAn OF Chicago, TO John B. Pine Of
New York city, shows that the Illinois
High License Law has proved 4 suu1esS.
He says In this lester;
"Tbe substantial and incontrovertible
fact is that high licsnse has arrested the
multiplication Of saloons in Chicago;
that whereas IN 1928 under o license

looms; In 1878. we have substantially
no more while the population has In
cress d from 900 200 TO 500 coo. So tina.
1t rs not unreasonable 70 assume that
we should have 5000 or more saloons
except for the intervention Of tho high
license. 1t Is not true that drunkenness
has increased out Of all proportion these
