The Press Says -.

TIMELY editorials from leading
= newspapers in widely separated
areas are interesting because of the
editors stand on entirely different
phases Of the liquor traffic and the
social effects of repeal.
Early in 1889 the big church tenn
perance societies and welfare groups
such as the w. c. T. U. recorded a
national swing to an attitude much
more critical of liquor than that Of
1933-34.
Close observers have noticed since
then that this public criticism has
become vocal through editorial writ
ings, many Of them in newspapers
which fought for liquor during pro-
hibition days.

Three Dangerous Germs.

xMTeS dangerous GeTmSs
The Phoenix, Ariz., Republic on
Jan. 20, 1910 writes:
three great scourges, each detri-
mental to the nations public health,
harass the United States. Which
is the worst depends upon ones
point of view This trio consists
of syphilis, tuberculosis, and intoxi-
eating liquor. The nation is making
a valiant fight through its public
health centers to rid the country Of
syphilis and tuberculosis. OF much
lesser degree is the war against
liquor
'HsSen. Morris Sheppard Of Texas
expressed the difference when
he said: If there were as much
money to be made out of the germs
Of tuberculosis and syphilis, as there
Is out of the drug that terminates
alcoholism, they too would have re-
manned the scourges they were In
other years
90. The germ which creates
alcoholism is more prevalent today
in the nation than at any time in
its history. Not only is nothing be-
ing done to curb its spread, but to
the contrary every possible aid Ia
given to increase its spread"
Later, discussing prevention
through prohibition, the editor
writes:
e.. Prohibition will not entirely
remove intoxicating. liquor, but it
will make it much harder to get. At
least the temptation to indulge will
not be in the open, nor will the flow
Of intoxicants be anywhere near the
present volume. The worst days Of
prohibition cannot be compared even
remotely with the conditions which
now prevail under legalized liquor. !"
