HOTELS AND PROHIBITION
decatur Review

Whatever may be the opinion in regard to the effect
of prohibition in other fields, there is argument
the fact that it has adversely affected the hotel
business.
Opponents of prohibition declared that it would be
the ruin of the hotel They predicted sad things
when that rich of revenue, the hotel bar would
be no more.
The result has not been in accordance with this fore
cast however. Quite the contrary Hotelkecpers
quickly adjusted themselves to conditions and al
though in the hotel has fallen off
in its volume of business, many others its continuance
dry dining has been most successful.
Building operations i'll Chicago, as an example,
phasze the fact that hotels anything but in Ian
gushing state. Every week it seems, have report
of another biggest hotel in the world New hosteres
and additions present in operation in that city
entail an expenditure of $l00000000

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT
Editorial, Pickcns IS. c. SentineD

Editorial, PlckcnS IS. G SentineD
Much has been said pro and about the prohibition
question since the passage of the Eighteenth Amend
ment Some would lead you to believe that it is only
farce and is miserable failure. Propaganda has been
spread concerning various things with the aim OF weak
cning the enforcement of the law. Chief among these
statements such things the enormous wealth of
bootleggers; the immense quantity of whisky that is
being struggled into the United States; the general
rest of the of the people about the Eighteenth
Amendment and various other things of like nature.
These statements put in such that
great many people believe them.
Bringing the question home ask the following
questions: How many bootleggers do we know who
rich? Are they selling enough whisky to make them
selves independent? Are there many illicit dsteries
there were? Do absolutely know that
such immense quantities of whisky being smugglcd
into the United States? How many people do you know
that dissatisfied with the Eighteenth Amendment?
Are these people in very small minority?
Look around you all sides and size up the sua
ton. Are things not in much better condition today
with regard to the whisky situation than before?
How many people have you seen lately i'll drunken
condition the streets?
1t is the duty of every loyal citizen to refute, best
he can, all propaganda that is being put out by the
whisky interests and in doing service will be
dered the country.

country wanted it, the great majority of
our people are for it and are demanding
its enforcement. Congress has appropri-
ated vast sums to insure enforcement
and, as the government is willing to do
its part by supplying boats and equip
ment it is not too much to ask the de
cent, law-abiding element to help man
these boats with honest, stalwart, trust
worthy men,"
Service Has Honorable History
The Coast Guard Service has long
and honorable history. Its establishment
dates back to $780, when it was organ
lied as the Revenue Cutter Service 1t
formed the Coast Defense of the country
before the regular navy was established
and its career covers four wars, during
each of which it participated in national
defense. During the World War the
Coast Guard was declared part of the
Navy and its boats acted as ocean es-
corts and conveys for troops and sup
plies, establishing patrol bases at Gibral-
tar and Brest.
Interesting and Varied Duties
The duty of the crew on patrol boats
will be varied, including, besides the &C
tivities in the elimination of Rum Row,
the rescue of ships at sea and of ship
wrecked victims, warning vessels of the
nearness of icebergs and ice-hoes, trans
mission of messages and picking up dis
tress signals.
The radio department offers varied and
interesting experience, as the new patrol
boats have been fitted up with new trans
hitting and receiving sets, perfected by
the Western Electric company, which
combine all the latest devices and the
most up-to-date equipment
Recruiting offices in other cities are
the Custom House in Baltimore, Boston
and Norfolk, and at the Post Office
Building in Philadelphia.

BANKERS REPORT SHOWS DRY
LAW DOUBLES SAVINGS
Increase of 7,538,501 Depositors Re-
corded in First Year
Chicago Evening PosD

Los Angeles, March 25-An increase
OF 100 per cent, or more than 20,000000
individual savings banks depositors in
the period from 1910 to 1924, noted in
the recently released annual report of
the savings bank division of the Ameri-
can Bankers Association, was pointed
out yesterday by Los Angeles business
men and financial leaders as being di-
rectly ascribable to the effect upon the
nation at large of prohibition.
In the figures of the bankers organi-
cation almost $4,000, 100000 of the $500
000,000,0O0 in the country belongs to the
savngs-bank patron. In 1914, it is
shown, the savings banks held but S.
728, $4,000. In the next five years they
increased but $3,727,924O0O, as against
$8,417,1 900 in the last five years
In the same fvc-ycar period from 1914
to 1919, the number of depostors in
creased from 10,62l, $50 to $4,000. In
this connection it must be noted that
from 1914 to 1918 preceding the year
when prohibition took effect, the increase
in deposition was only 6,l64-this for
four years. In the year following the
advent of prohibition the increase was
7,538,50 depositors, figure, by the way,
which doesn't sound good to the anti
prohbitionistS.
All Better Off

even if their experience is limited to
yachts and small boats, but few mex
perienced young men will be taken as ap-
prentices. The service also wants radio
men and operators who understand the
upkeep of marine gas engines.
Recruits will be enlisted at once and
sent to New London to the receiving unit
where they will be given some training
Their transportation to New London will
be free. Wages range from $21 to $l26
month, plus increase for previous gov
eminent service.

abiding element Of the country to help
Uncle Sam man these boats with capable,
honest men who can be depended upon
in the fight to rid the Atlantic Ocean of
liquor pirates.
The appeal for recruits is being broad
cast by Arthur J. Davis, State Superin-
tendent of the Anti-Saloon League of
New York, whose cooperation has been
sought by officers of the Battery Recruit
ing Station. Mr.. Davis was called upon
to transmit the governments appeal
through all the publicity channels at the
Leagues command The recruiting Of
fcers hope in this way to reach class
of citizens who will accept service as
matter of patriotic duty, as we'll as of
adventure, and will have at heart the sue
cess of the job in hand, thus preventing
the lalwless element from undermining
the ranks of the service.
Great Opportunity
"This is an unprecedented opportun-
ity," Mr.. Davis declared, 'for the people
of the country to get solidly behind this
branch of the government, and the least
that law-abiding people can do is to
bring this service to the attention of
capable, trustworthy men and encourage
them to join the dry navy
Recruiting starts Immediately, and the
need for men is urgent as each of the
hundred boats must be manned by
crew consisting of chief boatswains
mate; boatswain, 1st class; chief motor
machinist; 2 motor machinists, 1st class;
ships cook, End class; seaman, lst class.
The demand is for experienced seamen

Need Chiefs at Once

According to the commissioned officers
in charge of recruiting there is excellent
opportunity for eX-service men who can
secure the positions as chiefs, taking
command at once, if their previous cx-
perience and qualifications are adequate.
Advancement is sure and will be quick
because of the urgency of the demand to
fill vacancies in the entire new unit of
100 boats
Previous discharges from service will
be required. Recommendations are nee
essary and will be thoroughly investi-
gated. Young men between the ages f
18 and Il must have the consent of par
ents.
I'VE want to strengthen the morale of
the Coast Guard and insure the integrity
of our new crews" declared the COM
missioned officer who appealed to Mr..
Davis for cooperation. He said:
with crews made up of honest citi-
zens who are interested in the enforce
ment of law and who regard the service
of their country as of paramount impor-
lance, we can soon clean up the pirates
who are defying the government and
making a farce of Our laws.
