BOOTLEGGTNG NO ARGUMENT
AGAINST PROHIBITION

Asbury Park and Bradley Beach were
dry under a one-mile limit law An effort
was made to repeal that law. An editorial
in the NelUS of March %, 1913, made this
observation:
It is said that liquor is sold on the
sly in both municipalities, but sup
pose this to be true, it is no argument
in favor of open unlimited sales.
And yet that is exactly the argument
that many of the wet newspapers are adj
vancing in an effort to overthrow prohibi-
ton today. In final analysis the argument
Is: "rhe criminal won't obey the law,
therefore, repeal the law"
DRINKING BY MINORS
There is a great deal said about the
drinking of youth under prohibition. How
about this New Jersey case back in 1916?
The NeauS on November Of that year, edi-
torially commenting upon case in which
a man had been killed in drunken row
at Bernardsville, said:
One of the principles in the fight
which finally involved six men, was a
boy of fifteen, Staggering drunk" by
his own admission. On q stenographic
record of the Somerset county court
is the sworn evidence of where he OBJ
tanned his drinks in utter defiance of
law. A life has been Snuffed out.

heavy bill run up on the county. Pre-
sllrnably the prosecutor Of Somerset
county will inquire if they are still
selling drinks to fifteen-year old boys
at the old stand.
SPEAKEASIES AND SUNDAY SALES
Or how about the situation in Union
county, New jersey in 1904, twenty-six
years ago? The grand jury, after being in
session twenty-five days, brought in an
unusual number of indictments. The evil
dence shows that the county in those good
old license" days was supporting speak
easies. 1t showed that liquor was sold TO
minors. 1t revealed corruption of police
and protection of perjurers. The Nel0S, in
an editorial of June 10, 1904, commenting
upon the action of this grand jury says:
The Union county grand jury, after
being in session twenty-five days, re-
Gently brought in an unusual number
of indictments, a great proportion Of
them being against diSOrderly houses,
SpedkeaSieS, Sunday sellers and those
who sold liquor to minors. Some eight
or ten proprietors OF speakeasies in
Plainfield were rounded up shortly
after the indictments were found lest
they should be informed of what had
occurred and should quit the state.
A little later on, the editorial says that
Plainfield is high license city, charging
$3.50 a year license fee and limiting the
number Of saloons. High license did not
keep out Speakeasies, did not prevent sale
to boys and girls, was no guarantee against
corruption Of police.
LIQUOR CONTROL BOARDS
A good deal is said about liquor control
boards or licensing boards to be set upon
under sort of government control system
which would guarantee honest and up
right department on the part of brewers
and saloonkeepers il 1--WE could only get
rid of prohibition" In an editorial of De-
cenber 7, 1910, the Ne1DS discusses the
Newark excise board and the Paterson
license committee. It explains that the
Newark excise board and the licensing
committee of Paterson are Bipartisan
bodies" It seems that rivalry had grown
up between the Newark and the Paterson
brewers. AS a consequence NeWark-made
beer was barred from Paterson; Paterson
made beer was barred from Newark. The
Ne10S editorially discusses this situation
and concludes the editorial with this para
graph:
The one feature of this tale of two
cities which should most interest the
people of both is the loyal and whole
hearted service which both licensing
bodies render to the brewing inter-
ests. Recognizing the source of their
authority they render willing and
joyful obedience to their superiors.
Both the brewers of Paterson and the
brewers of Newark may well be proud
