Repeal of na- tional prohibition, launched with hus- |2as by an enormous majority, is com- | | IL { viving dry organizations, which have not hesitated to predict return of pro- |hibition in five years. With two years of operation of the control systems es- jtablished when repeal went into ef- fect, it is possible to back off and sum up what has happened. Wide differences in the way the. picture looks to different people bear out that the liquor problem is a perennial, never completely solved. Now, survey- {ing the two years since Dec. 5, 1933, |when repeal went into effect: | x x THE WETS SAY: ; The legal liquor business has cre- |ated hundreds of thousands of honest jobs. Breweries alone claim 67,000 jobs in 675 brewerles, and 600,000 in- jdirect jobs in distributing. In the 225,000 places now selling alcoholic (drinks in the U. &.. in the 500 distil- jleries and 1000 wineries now operat- ing, many thousands of jobs have also been created. Badly needed revenue for state and local governments has risen to well tor liquor is probably not much great- during prohibition, with no tax re- turn, The bloody beer racket has been en- tirely eliminated.

It is still a part of the} accepted domestic economy in many homes, just as thrifty! housewives still display skill with the darning needle. | The main idea back of the Open Your Heart movement is! not so much to dress children WELL as to dress them, WARMLY. Every year at this season the New York Times, in its an-! nual appeal on behalf of the unfortunate, prints what it de-! seribes as “New York’s 100 neediest cas i The plight of families described therein is touching, of | course, for the human wreckage and tragedy tossed up by a great city is appalling. But none of them is more touching! that the condition of some families right here in our midst. Suffering can be just as acute and misery as hopeless here on our own prairies and in our own city as in the biggest metrop- olis in the world. It is a good deal better for our peace of mind, of course, if these conditions are not called to our attention. None of us/ is insensible to suffering when it rests on our doorstep, but! few find it possible to become personally excited about a con-) dition which we have not ourselves seen, Yet, this is not the spirit of Christmas, for the sentiment | of the season is best expressed in the thought that it is better to give than to receive. | At Yuletide the world pays respect to a birth which} changed the thinking of a civilization. The extent to which| the teachings which thus came into being are accepted and | practiced can be guaged by the support which is given the! Open Your Heart campaign here and similar movements else-| where. This enterprise deserves ever support. Co-operation with} ft will enable many a man and woman to better enjoy their Christmas dinner, J The Nazi Magdalen | The sharp divergence between \the accepted beliefs and} practices of Christianity and those of German Nazidom are emphasized by the new rules governing marriage and divorce! recently announced in Berlin. The aim of the Nazi state is to encourage propagation of the all-conquering German race, and for this more babies are| needed. The entire social structure is being revised to accom-| plish that end. Wives who fail to produce children are to be put away. The government is interested in results, not causes, | and the sterile woman must, henceforth, bear alone the penalty | imposed upon her by nature. Firm belief in Nazi principles is thrown in for good measure as a new requisite for domestic happiness. But the campaign doesn’t end there. The social bars which have prohibited motherhood to unmarried women are| to be lifted. After all, an illegitimate child makes just as good | cannon fodder as one born within the bounds of wedlock, Sub- sidies are to be provided for unmarried mothers and the chil-| dren are to be placed in homes operated by the state. | If conceived in a proper spirit of social advance, the latter | changes might well be considered as improvements. The lot of | the Magdalen always has been hard enough and the principle | of “let him who is without blame cast the first stone” has guided modern thought on this subject in every enlightened nation., y Yet there is something sinister about the Nazi program. A change in public attitude such as apparently is being sought threatens the institution of marriage as we have known it. The Nazi state apparently thinks it will benefit, but in this it may be mistaken. -The family still is the bulwark of all government and any state which undermines it is apt to find that it has sown the seeds of its own destruction, New York Star fears Communistic propaganda 1s carried in the dance.

A market has been provided for millions of bushels of farmers’ grains and other products, while glass, lum- ber, and transportation by train and truck show a definite stimulation. The hotel industry has been saved from ruln, and the advertising industry has felt a pronounced pickup. The trend to preference for beer in- stead of hard liquor, marked before prohibition, has been resumed. Some 50,000,000 barrels of beer will have been made this year, far ahead of the the banner beer year. Consumption of hard liquor is run- ning only 64 per cent of the pre-pro- hibition peak, judged from figures! on withdrawals of legal liquor from} distilleries and warehouses. This in-| dicates a resumption of the trend to beer instead of hard liquor which was marked during the years just before; prohibition, but was interrupted when. prohibition turned drinkers almost exclusively to “hard” liquor. | ~* % i THE DRYS SAY: | Despite the tremendous legal out- | put, bootlegging has not been sup-! pressed. From 30 to 40 per cent of all liquor is still bootlegged. Every city rieiting of labels and bottles goes on. Chain saloons under brewery dom- ination, advertising aimed at creating | new drinkers and increasing drink- ing, revived political influence of brewers and distillers—all these evils of pre-prohibition days are return- ing, especially since the NRA codes were outlawed last year. Seven cents of every consumer's dollar (an estimated $3,500,000,000 a year) is going for liquor or beer. Such a vast slice of the national income would bring greater social benefits if spent for almost anything else. Alcoholism deaths climbed to 3,655 in 1934, last year for which figures are indicating increased drinking. Many people who never drank before have been persuaded to take it up, especially women, whose presence at bars and whose serving of liquor and beer at home is a distinct step back- ward. Gain of 14 per cent in num- ber of feminine patients at a famous “cure” is cited. Drunken driving has increased alarmingly. and figures from many states and communities show it is in- creasing faster than are the number ing under an increasing fire by re-| Drinking las become decent and re- | _ SY Your Personal Health By William Brady, M.

And here let me repeat that in my ju ie~ ment fresh whole sweet raw milk (not sterilized or pasteurized or bar-bollec or scalded) is quite as efficacious if not more so, for promoting vigorous ; growth of lactic bacilli in the colon and so discouraging putrefactive proc- esses there, as is any fancy beverage or bacteriological preparation purporting to produce that effect. A quart of milk yields 650 calories, which is approximately one-fifth of the requirement of a norma! adult of ordinary activity or one doing light work or getting some light exercise daily. In caloric or iuel value it is equiv- alent to a pound of the best lean meat. Moreover the nitrogenous, protein or cheese part of milk is fully as satisfactory in human nutrition as is that material in meat, altho this does not mean that mature adults should not eat meat—there is no particular reason why a reasonable amount of meat should not be included in the diet of an individual past middle age.

The number of federal prisoners, even those sentenced on liquor charg- es, has not decreased, as claimed, de- spite the fact that 13,000 cases were quashed when repeal went into ef- fect. Any local community or city can see that congestion in its courts has not been relieved, while a large iucome from liquor fines has been sacrificed. Signs of resurrection of a “whisky trust” are again seen. Senator Clark estimates that 80 per cent of the liquor distilling business already has fallen into the hands of nine concerns.
