MI KruttsChnitt again voiced his
objection TO the proposed basis Of

he believed the return should be

Urges People of State

Montgomery February 9.-(Spc-

jury has ever gone in Montgomery
county in condemning saloons, the
grand jury of the circuit court com
pleted it's work Saturday with an APP
peal to the people of Alabama never
again to permit the return of the sa-
looms. The report said there had been
gratifying decrease in the number of
crimes and this fact was attributed
to the prohibition laws. Seyenty-two.
indictments were found after 100 cases
had been investigated and las wit
nesses had been examined.
In reference to prohibition the re-
port said: "By referring to reports Of
former grand juries of this county we
find there has been very gratifying
decrease in the amount of crime and
we believe this decrease in crime is
very largely due to prohibition and
We would regard the return of the
saloon or the weakening of the pro-
hibition laws in our state as most de-
plorable. While the prohibition laws
are being more strongly enforced, it
has come to our attention that whisky
has been brought into Montgomery
from other counties by automobile and
we would recommend to the sheriff
that he use his best efforts to break
up this practice"
