ing tour Of road houses.
Awe recognize that the automobne,
the roadhouse, the beer fat and the
,speakeasy have been sources Of social
and moral deterioration, and urge that
every effective means Of control be en-
ployed to regulate or eliminate, as the
case requires, those sources OF corrup-
ton in the life of youth:
1.-THE Jury believes that when not only
schools but all other social institutions
as well develop ways and means OF max
ing character ideals effective. q large
part of the problem will be solved.
Not Of Their Own Making.
1--WE are convinced that the prob
lens and conditions which face youth
are not Of their own making. They are
not responsible for the fact that social
conditions are unstable and unfavorable
to the development Of the highest type
Of life. We believe that in the final
ANALYSIS, the determination Of their be-
havior and the use the young people are
going to make Of existing circumstances
rests with the younger generation.
1.-THE Jury recommends that youth
accept and make use OF Whatever AID
they may receive from parents and So
ciai institutions, and that they evaluate
that aid in the light OF their deeds and
aspirations.
I'm the age Of the automobile and
the airplane intoXication has no place.
1.-The jury feels that law enforcement
agencies ought to be encouraged by
both individuals and social institutions
to fulfill, with great vigor, their obliga-
tions. School children and even young
men and women, should be protected as
much as possible from the blighttng in
fiuence of irregular, unlawful and So
cially deteriorative places"

The verdict was signed by Edward J.
Tobin, county superintendent OF schools;
Paul T. Biszin, superintendent of Luz

cago schools; Prof E. w. Burgess, head
of the sociology department Of the UNI

In line with the jury's recommends
tions, statement was issued by William

NEW EDUCATION
DRIVE ON RUM
|SPLANNED

Like a general preparing to
return to battle after defeat,
the Prohibition Bureau is pre-
pairing additional ammunition
in the form Of literature to be
used in its educational cam
paign, which invoked a
storm of criticism when origi-
nally launched six weeks ago.
Miss Anna B. Suffer. styled pub
lie relations counsel" of the bureau,
is preparing the new broadside
which will be hurled against the
forces of demon rum. The contents
of these papers have not been
divulged by bureau officials.
Some time ago Miss Sutter re.
leased a pamphlet entitled. How
Are We to Teach Prohibition in the
Schools?" This precipitated such
furor through the country that 1t
was necessary for President Hoover
to step in. Finally 1t was scrapped.
Now, 1t Is said. the new pamphlets
will be soon released and the STIR
ring campaign renewed. In the
are being fixed and made ready for
the approval of governmental Off.
cials.
Miss Sutter planned her other
pamphlets for distribution at the
Atlanta convention of the National
Educational Association. but they
were locked in DIR. Doran's safe. it
is said. for future destruction. and
she was compelled to go without
them. At the convention she spent
her time in answering questions
which the teachers put to her She
explained that she was not trying
TO ram the information down the
throats of either the teachers or
pupils but was preparing 1t as
friendly Informative gesture for the
help of the cause.
Governmental officials are wait
ing for the new Informative iitera-
ture and wondering whether 1t will
hit the spot or prove to be another
boomerang.
Another dream Of the 'educa-
tional service" was that of placard-
ing the country with posters, but
this was vetoed by DR.. Doran, the
Commissioner, when he declared,
after looking at samples, that they
did not ring the bell''
The educational campaign is be-
ing financed by a $4,000 appropria.
tion from Congress. Whether an
other such sum will be asked is q
matter of speculation but in any
event 1t is thought the wet forces
will fight it.

The automobile in question was
recently for sale by Miller. The
most promising prospect was a
young man who had been intro
duced to him by a mutual friend.
TRY her out for a few days"
said Miller.
After several days, he called up
the prospective buyer, and received
the news that the automobile had
changed hands, but not in the ex-
pected manner.
The prospect tried out the car on
a camping trip he was making in
nearby Virginia. He also tried out
four cases of beer. and placed
them in the car which was parked
in front of his home in the Llewelyn
Apartments.
The latter action did not escape
the attention of the policeman on
the beat. Returning later with
assistants and a towing apparatus,
the officer took the car and beer
to a storehouse.
The removal was witnessed bv
the might-have-been purchaser from
safe distance, he told Miller. He
doesn't like jails. s
hdhlnS inquiries at the District
Attorneys office in Police Court,
Miller was informed that his car
had been seized under section of
the revenue act, providing for con.
fiscation of all vehicles found while
loaded with contraband of any ma.
ture. There was no arrest.
Although Miller is employed by
an automobile firm, the car which
was seized did not belong to them.
but was his own property. He will!

to Treasury officials.
