GROUND JUDGE SAYS l Clandestine Purveyor of Drink o Be Curbed by Public | New Haven, Oct, 27 wiven at the schoo the League of Wom son hall, ¥ale university, last night, Willlam B, Boardman, former judge of the Bridgeport police vourt pressed the opinion that the prohibi tion law s here to stay, Judge Hoard man spoke on “Law Kaforcement in & Manufaeturing Citf With special Reference To the Prohibition Laws" Part of Judge Hoardman's addross was devoted Lo deseribing conditions in Bridgeport, Later he spoke on the general topie of prohibition enforee. ment and said that the public will soon ourb the bootiegger, In & section of his address devoted Ro statisties, Judge Hoardman sald that In New Britaln the arrests (or drunkenness dropped from 727 426 in 1916 and 1918, resp 221 and 366 in 1921 and ) for breach of the peace, H07 and 414 to 206 and 216, and to tal arrests from 1515 and 911 to 642 and 849, Judge Boardman's talk In part fol- lows: In an address eitlzenship of Voters, at Lam Saloons Can Be Closed “The daws of Connecticut, to sy nothing of the laws of the United States, are entirely sufficient to close the saloons, It has been done and it can be done again, Personally, I think that the saloon keepers and any who are winking at the continuance of the saloon In business, thinking that pub- lie sentiment will support them, will be woefully disappointed if ever pub- lic opinion has an opportunity to press Itself on that point. “The saloon can be as casily dis- covered and demobllized as a sore thumb, A saloon equipped with bar, front and back, brass rall, beer pump, and glasses, can only have a legal business reason for existence today, cithor because the proprietor owns the building or the lease and has been un- able to sell the same or put it to other uses; or because he expects his old business to be legalized. The profit on near-beer will scarcely pay for light and heat. When intoxicating liquor and intoxicated persons arc found about the place, common sense de- mands but one answer. Local Bootlegger ! “Certaln parts of the United Statesy have, undoubtedly, gone on somewhat of a spree. It is one of the hopeful | signs, however, that when a particular state or county Is accused, its repre- sentative or someone living there and claiming knowledge, springs to its de- fense with a denial. l\m‘lhls 1 credit to two things: *1, The conditions are not as bad as represented. “2, The imputation of disregard of the law Is still recognized as a dis- credit to the community and its rep- resentatives. “An appreciable part of the popu- lation, however, has adopted boot- legging or buying liquor directly or indirectly from bootleggers, as a ma- jor sport. They know that the busi- ness is forbidden, and like children and Adam and Eve, of old, being for- bidden, theyv want all the more the thing forbidden. I doubt if the extent | of lawbreaking on that account is as| great as many believe if to be. And further, I believe that uk@r they have had their fiing and shoWn that they can do it, though forbidden, they will realize the benefits that the law has even in three years brought about, or most important of all, that disrespect for the law brings great evils in its train, Public Will Curb Bootlegger “The American public is good na- | tured, but in the last analysis are good eports. As such, they like to see the game played according to the rules. The game of bootlegging knows no honor and no rules. There will be periods of observance and of non-ob servance, but ultimately the people will insist that it be ohserved as well at least, as the law forbidding the sale of narcotics, the law forbidding fifty different things connected with operating an automobile, and the laws forbldding dozens of things connected habits stitl presail to & greater extent than in the elties will witls mately hecome bmpationt of diserdes in our cities.
