LIQUOR MEN KNOW
THAT PROHIBITION
PROHIBITS!
Liquor men have been saying rather persistently
that while it may be possible to vote out the saloon it
is impossible to keep out booze.
But we may set it down for fact that the wettest
dry" state is drer than the driest wet" state.
If liquor is sold against the law in any community,
or in state the liquor responsible for and
they should be prosecuted the full extent of the law
The amazing thing is that they have the holiness
to boast Of their wlessness and with unashaed faces
to declare that matter what the people say, they
will continue to sell liquor.
But does prohibition work in practice?
4 e S.
Hprohbition not effective then why is it that the
liquor men are fighting it so strenuously, making
every sacrifice IN order to keep prohibition out of their
cities and states and out of the constitutional law?
Why do they spend immense sums of money to OPP
pose the pr0bitiOnists does not effect their bust
very materially?
Why is it that liquor men rapidly changing their
plans that instead of producing Shoots and BOOZE,
they are turning out boots and shoes?
If prohibition isn't effective why does every liquor
journal devote most of its space discussion of the
menace of prohibition"

IT'S BECAUSE THE LIQUOR MEN KNOW THAT
PROHIBITION PROHIBITS.

DISCUSS FIXING PRICES
ON COTTONS AND WOOLENS

Suggestions that the government
either take over for distribution or hx
prices on all cotton and wooden goods
were discussed at President Wilson's
weekly conference yesterday with the
heads of government war-making
agencies.
Heavy demands of the Army and
Navy. it was said, will take such q
large percentage Of the output of
mills that there probably will not be
enough goods to supply all tho re-
quirements of the civilian population.
Officials fear that IL some measures are
not taken to hold prices down and to
assure equitable distribution many
persons will be unable to obtain q
proper amount of clothing.
