was taken; that slot machines in full

Someone asked us If we thought
the sale Of liquor In Holmes county
could be stopped.

Someone asked US If we thought
the sale Of liquor In Holmes county
could be stopped.
Our answer was mo-"
But VIZ do believe the monopoly
might be broken up -. and a lot OF
the profit taken out of it.
AS long as Holmes county citizens
drink as they do and patFonize Hol-
mes county ~bootleggers there will
be whiskey sold in this county.
AS long as there were only n or
two bootleggers in or around each
town to supply the local demand IL
wasn't quite SO brazen.
Today, however, liquor joints line
the highways going in and out OF
most towns in the county. They don't
lust sell liquor quietly. They are the
loudest places in town. They display
prominently in their doors slot ma
chimes and other gambling devices
Some have combined dance halls
with liquor and gambling.
They flaunt it in the faces OF the
people as well as the officers.
Conditions have become so bad
it is dangerous to get out on the
highways, especially on Saturday
nights. Only last Saturday night a
man was run into and a truck turn
ed over naer Durant. The parties IN
volved were drinking, according TO
reports. ,
Liquor selling has now reached
the stage where it is the most profit
able business in Holmes county.
Why work for a living when you
can sell whiskey and make ter OF
twelve thousand a year or more!
If present conditions are permitted
to continue it won't be long until we
have a whole generation OF young
people grown up under the present
lax law-enforcement with no respect
for any law.
We cannot expect our young peo-
pie to grow up to be the inc OF
citizens we need in this country as
long as we set such a bad example
before them by not doing anything
about present conditions.

Holmes Official
Backs Med School

Ruleville, Nov. SIT is hard to
understand why we have gone so
long complacent and willing to do
without a medical college,, DR.. w.
H. Weeks, director Of the Holmes
county health department, stated, in
an address before the Ruleville Ro-
tary club in behalf of the four-year
medical college and hospital pro-
gram. I'VE would not think of being
without a State University and other
institutions of learning and why we
have waited so long for a medical
college is hard to understand.
How many people away from the
State of Minnesota would W have
heard of Rochester had it not been
for the medical center there? What
means more to Memphis and West
Tennessee than the Tennessee Uni
versity school of medicine? What did
more to put North Carolina on the
map than Duke University school OF
medicine and Virginia and its Uni
versity school of medicine? We in
Mississippi have too long, long too
long, pursued the course of least
resistance-the cheap course" said
DR.. Weeks.
During the last twenty years 5000
men from Mississippi have gradual
ed in medicine in other states and
only 1900 of them came back to Mis-
sissippi to practice their profession.
How badly we need that other 1900
now!' stressed the director.
"All that has been said with ref
erence to doctors, applies equally to
trained nurses. The shortage is just
as great and the chances for relief
with our present set-up is just as
poor In the United States" he said,
I'VE have an average of one doctor
to each 1900 people. In Mississippi
we have one doctor to each $500
people. In Holmes county we have
only one doctor for each 1910 people
and in Sunflower county, doctor
for each 2542 people"
Right now while our government
and the people generally are so a
reused is the high tide for Missis-
sippi to catch. 1t this opportunity is
not taken advantage of by Missis-
sippi, it will give other states who
already have the advantage by u
backwardness, a chance to gain fur
Their advantages and ten years from
now it would be much more diff
cult for Mississippi to overcome,
stated DR.. Weeks.
In conclusion DR.. Weeks said, "just
as we have seen non-progresslve
communities lose their doctors to
more progressive communities,
state is liable to and is actually los
ing some of our most talented doc
tors to more progressive states. To
mention only one will suffice to show
this. DR.. Harter of the tuberculosis
sanatorium, one of the nations most
skillful lung surgeons.
"We have reason to believe that
he and some of our other outStand-
;ng doctors of the state would not
leave and others of equal fame
would be attracted to our state if
we had a four-year medical college.
There is no way of evaluating the
gooa a four-year medical college
would do in the raising and main
tanning of the standard of the medi-
cal practice in the state. Daily
