PROBLEMS MODERN YOUTH DISCUSSED
STANDARD OF PRESENT AND PAST COMPARED BY NEW
 YORK SPECIALIST

NEW YORK, Feb. IS. P)-A com parison of the problems of youth in America today as against past gen. erations is the subject of statement
 prepared by Dr. Carro Croft of the New York Department of Health. Calling attention to the fact that people are living under entirely diff ferent conditions than in previous generations, Dr. Croff said 'it is unfair to judge young people by standards of the past" calling attention to the fact that not only boys and girls, but men and women are in the present age are living under entirely differ ent conditions than previous genera tions. With breakfast degenerating into a relay race, home life giving place to jazz and social activities, and each member of the family intent on his own affairs, young people are not having the oversight and direction they should have "Is 1t any wonder" she asked, "that they are becoming impatient of restraint and imagining that thrills are essential to happi- ness?"
 To overcome this tendency, to guide the young waay from ruinous tempta- tions and to direct them toward the worth while things of life, Dr. Croft urged a closer companionship between parents and children, the giving of clean, simple information to children regarding bodily functions and an en- deavor to make them understand the beauty and sacredness of a proper sex life and it's control

ESQ Million GALLONS
OF LIQUOR CONSUMED
This Is Estimate of What
Americans Have Used
In Seven Years

Washington. May 81 (UP)-Amer-
leans have consumed 100000. 900
gallons or more of intoxicating bev-
erage since prohibition went into
effect seven years ago. 1t was esti-
mated today at the treasury.
The greater part of that amount
was described by federal authorities
as illegal under strict Interpretation
of the Volstead act but in many in
stances it was perfectly proper.
Sacramento wine consumption
entirely legal-totaled more than
24.o00,000 gallons and it was esti-
mated home made wine consumption
was MANY times greater.
Some 30,000,O00 gallons of whiskey
was released from bonded warehous-
es for medicinal use during the per-
iod. Augmenting this legitimate
consumption, homes held a consid-
cradle stock of liquor or hand for
medicine" when the country went
dry.
Officials said moonshine consump-
ton and production in seven years
had been heavy and one government
man ventured a guess OF several
million gallons annually.
Liquor struggled since prohibition
has been considerable, especially
from Canada, it was said. About
100000 gallons of beer. ale, rum,
gin and whiskey seep into the Unit
ed States from Canada each year 1t
was estimated.

i. s. Chamber Of Commerce
Official Sees Growth Here
NAILS HARMFUL STORIES
Colyin d. Brown Addresses Luncheon
OF New Britain Chamber OF Com
merce, Advocating Interest In
Loctl Government Economy.

Rumors and statements that in
dustries are moving away from New
England to the extent that this Sec
ton is losing out, were denied today
by Colvin D. Brown, manager of the
organization department OF the
United States Chamber Of Com
merce, who spoke at a luncheon of
the Chamber of Commerce at the
Burritt hotel.
The luncheon was well attended,
there being between Is and 100
present. Judge w. c. Hungerford,
president of the local chamber, pre-
sided. Two directors Of the Connec-
ticut state chamber, Major Frank H.
Johnston and A. P. Marsh, were
present.
Opening his remarks. Mr.. Brown
called attention to custom years
ago of hiring employees for as little
as possible, even below living
wage" and said the custom today is
to pay labor according to ability to
produce goods at profit.
/! He advocated committees Of local
Chambers of Commerce investigat-
ing local tax rates and city govern
ments to see if there are places
where two men are doing the work
| of one. and to see that tax payers
get a whole dollars worth for a dol
| lar.
He said the national fire preven-
ton campaign has reduced fire waste
from IS to $3.50 per capita in more
than 70 cities. He pointed out that
there were SO people killed and
1900 injured every day last year Ii
traffic accidents and advocated
Chamber of Commerce committees
to investigate traffic conditions.
| Mr.. Brown said the moving OF In.
dustries from New England where
there have been any. is simply in
line with decentralization of In
dustries and that New England is
growing more prosperous all the
time. He said some Of the eastern
states have adopted more efficient
marketing systems and that is one
of New Englands weak points.
MIR. Browns address
Mr. Brown spoke as follows:
"A few years ago the Chamber Of
| Commerce of the United States had
the vision to see how closely oul
country is concerned with world
trade problems and it took the in.
itiative in forming the Internation-
al Chamber of Commerce as an eff
fective medium for mobilizing the
business opinion of the world. AL
the great commercial nations are
represented in the membership OF the

being an important factor in the
