there has been an average Of about
four towns year. making forty in

dry towns IN the past year has been
twice as large as for all Of the ten
years put together. There are now
400 dry towns in New York, and there
arc less than 300 wet towns One year
ago there were $40 wet towns, 1923 dry
towns. The change which has been
made in one year, he saws, indicates
that the tidal wave which swept the
