boast from the National Woman's

vets were ANONYMOUSLY defeated

claim by Crusaders that illiteracy
flourishes most in the "bone
dry" States.
The w. C. T. U. reviewed ac-
tions of State legislatures in the
last 10 years, concluding there
has been q steady tendency to

prohibition thrives where
Ignorance prevails, but the dry

The Crusaders statement said
the 1920 census shows iiliteracy

The w. C. T. U. statement
said:
"The trend in State Legisla-
