and Bootlcgging Trade
Chief Peril To Prohibition


Copyright. 1872 New York Tribune Inc.
PARIS. June Prohibition IN the
United States was declared n partial
success and a partial failure to-day By
Ernest Guy, who has just returned
from an American tour during which
he made study Of the operation Of
the Volstead law for the French Wine
Growers Association. Introduced by
the Marquis Depolgnae, and Casinave,
formerly the French representative IN
New York Of the association, he adj
dressed a group Of Americans on the
subject.
Guy declared that. while prohibition
had accomplished an important work in
nbolishing the saloon in the United
States. the law itself would soon be re-
laxed in favor OF light wines and beers.
He applauded the efforts made 10 min
imize the drink evil. but pointed out
what he considered defects In the law.
lie said that, while the people Of the
United States were noted the world
over for their respect Of law. there was
n surprising disregard Of the Nolstead
act. lie said that foreigners were con-
stantly struck by the fragrant manner
In which il is nouted.
Even in Washington, the center Of
the government, Guy asserted, one can
buy all the whisky or other alcoholic
drinks one cares 10 drink. He said that
bootlegging was one Of the most profit
able forms Of activity in the country.
All this. he insisted. was not spoken by
way Of criticism. but merely as a reel
tai Of his own observation and expert
ence.
Guy told his hearers that he had
spoken 20 many Of the leading citizens
OF the country on the subject and had
learned that there was distinct in
crease in the drug habit bu. that this
was not due 20 prohibition. lie said
that from his Investigations among the
medical fraternity he had come 10 the
conclusion that IL was due 20 the in
crease OF cheap German drugs on the
market as well as the easy access TO
countries OF the Orient. such as China
and India. He found that the increase
in the use OF drugs was worldwide and
that alcohol users were not as class
inclined TO the addiction as an
alternative.
Guy also said that the crime wave
in the United States. o. which much
had been heard abroad. was not due "a
alcohol or its suppression but rather
was one Of the results Of the World
War. which is now causing crime
wave Of equal proportions in Europe.
One element that Is striking TO every
foreigner. Guy said. is the inequality
between the rich and the poor IN the
matter Of the right to drink. The rich
man in the United States, he said
maintains a well-stocked cellar while
the poor man goes thirsty. He sa"
a distinct feeling OF resentment grow
ing up on this account that is bound
10 lead to more legislation or TO cause
class struggle

memorandum to England would be the
basis Of Frances negotiations at The

here for an indefinite period in an
honest attempt to attain some working
accord with the representative Of the

This hint that France is ready 10
remain at The Hague for practically a

by the other delegations who are pre-
pairing not only - stay all summer
but an winter. If necessary.
Nobody is going to hurry the Rus

permit tho Bolshcviki TO hurry him.

Iitvinof said he was hopeful that
an understanding would be reached At
The Hague. This would be possible II
the other side was willing 10 meet the
Russian delegates half way and make
no attempt at insisting upon change
in the present Soviet regime. The
Soviet still stood by It's memorandum
Of May II.
The principal task confronting the
Soviet delegates az The Hague would
be 10 find a group willing 10 grant
Russia credits. II this problem was
solved. a goodly portion Of the pur-
pose for which the conference was
called would have been accomplished
Litvinof believed the stumbling block
at The Hague. as az Genoa. probably
would be France Unless France had
changed her attitude. he declared. II
was a foregone combustion the Hague
meeting would be failure as far rs
Russia was concerned.
