In the exuberation over the return of heer to the nation's thirsty souls, one of the most significant features to accompany it has been rather slighted in public comment. And that is the fact that it will furnish jobs for thousands of men and women now out of work. The extent to which it will relieve unemployment is hardly calcuable, but it will be sutficient to be felt. A survey of the brewing industry by Floyd Gib- bons, “the headline hunter,” as reported by him in the current Hearst’s Cosmopolitan magazine, re- vealed that 300,000 men would be put bacz to work by the brewers alone. And most of them were idle and without hope of immediate employment before President Roosevelt induced Congress to modify the Volstead Act. story does not end there. Other thousands put to work in industries that must supply with various needs. For instance, which will replace the horse-drawn ;adjoinmg section.

In America grafters are not put to such embarrassment. Short sentences, if convicted, and then our grafters hold their heads as high as any of our respectable citizens. Human flesh and moral stability are subject to lapses but the let-downs by the lesser public of- ficials in Russia today are negligible in view of the rough treatment accorded grafters. Not many Americans are lost in admiration of the Soviet regime, and shooting grafting officials is decidedly harsh treatment, but as between our treat- ment of the crooks who lack the nerve to get out with a gun but who ply their weazel-like tactics at the expense of the innocent public, and the Soviet grafter, there is room for action here in our country that should make the pastime far less inviting to moral weaklings. - . | Blue plays an important part in our political life.
