year TO operate. 1t began function
INK less than year ago. Since that
time tho departments enforcement
activities not only have not cost the
state one cent, but fines collected
have brought into the state treasury
moro than enough to operate the de-
partment for practically four whole
years. In addition, S200.0 600 In
liquor taxes has been certified
against property on which alcohol
has hecn handled Illegally. II can
therefore be said, with complete as
surance, that financially the plan has
been n distinct success.
But, of course, the function OF the
department Is not 20 make money
for the state OF Ohio. No matter
what ita showing In this respect, It's
real test Is It's ability to chocR pro.
hibttiou violation. There are So
counties In Ohio. Tho work of the
enforcement staff has been carried
into virtually all OF these.
Operations are partly on the basis
OF information transmitted TO the
prohibition commissioner through
citizens In tho form OF complaints.
In the main, however, Investigations
are independent. In all, there have
hoon Investigations into $500 sus-
pected places and every other such
visit produced evidence that prompt
ed arrests. In other words, the
states efforts have resulted In an
average of nearly zoo arrests each
month. Virtually every arrest was
followed by conviction.
When tho state undertook this
prohibition work a point was mad
TO impress upon officials OF local
communities, such as mayors and
police authorities IN cities, and sher-
Ifs and prosecuting attorneys in
counties, that the primary duty OF
enforcing the law in their localities
continued to rest with them. They
were informed that with the pro-
portionately large number Of men
available TO them FOR policing
against liquor law violations as COM
pared with the states limited NUM-
her of inspectors they would be held
strictly responsible for neglect IN
law enforcement.
Immediate Improvement.
The result has been that on the
whole local officials hava actively
