WASHINGTON, April 2.-Liquor
drinking by the younger generation
today is part of the psychology of
youth in throwing aside the veil that
therefore, concealed from them the
knowledge of life, in the opinion OF
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury
Lincoln c, Andrews.
Prohibition was brought into
effect after a long struggle by the
older generation" Andrews said. "At
the same time the younger genera
ton was developing jazz. The COM
bination made an unfortunate team"
Home Life Changed
Andrews said one Of the causes OF
drinking among the younger set is
that old.fashioned home life no
longer exists.
Home life at present is greatly
different from that of years ago" he
continued. In fact, home life OF
the past is gone-especially in larger
centers-and everybody is seeking
entertainment outside.
lllNus lOuS llllS SeH6IdLlOH Oh
youth is characterized by genuine.
ness. frankness and outspol<enness.
They do not believe in Santa Claus
or the stork. They have learned
truer stories"
Andrews said he felt youths of to9
day have no patience with hypocri-
sizes heretofore practiced by elders.
Conventions that always stood, es-
pecially that youngsters should not
know a lot Of things, are now char
acterized as bunk" he said.
Not Really Bad
1.-THE younger generation is enjoy
ing a new mental freedom and it re-
sents all prohibitions. The result
will be a long step in the direction
away from conventions of the past
Later, however, when the youths
of today become the responsible
citizens of tomorrow they will turn
to more conservative ways" An
drews predicted, adding that the
younger set is not really bad, i'm
moral nor irresponsible, but merely
enjoying a new emancipation which
has engulfed them in an atmosphere
somewhat intoxicating in itself.

that a permanent location should
not be made until the commission
