If lit could be administered by sound-thinking persons it might be respected. Fundamentally, it’s a good law. It has \wiped out the And nobody wants a return The law is in disrepute largely because of the idiotic fashion in which it is “enforced.” On May 1, in the year of grace 1924, Seattle grocers are to start asking housewives who purchase dried prunes whether they want the ptunes for stewing or for making prune wine. This inanity is announced, quite seriously, by Mr. Roy Lyle, who operates under the grandiloquent title of federal prohibition director for the Northwest district. Personally, if any grocer asks us, we shall reply: “To stew up,” and the grocer can take it either way he pleases. The same procedure is to be followed by grocers when- ever anybody buys anything that might, by a stretch of. the imagination, be manufactured into home-made beer or wine. It is The Star’s opinion that no sane grocer will do any such thing, but that’s beside the point. If merchants are going to be forced to run ques- tionnaires why not make every hardware merchant ask every rope buyer if the buyer wants four yards of rope to make a clothes-line or to hang himself with? Why not make every stationer ask the notepaper buyer: “Do you want this to write legitimate letters or will you use it to bawl somebody out?” Why not ask every | chair purchaser if he intends to use the chair to sit on | or to bust over somebody’s sconce? And why not, in heaven’s name, make the pawnbroker {ask the gun buyer which bank it is intended the gun shall be used to stick up? While Puget sound bootleggers are breaking the speed records running beoze cargoes to Seattle Roy Lyle’s grocery store questionnaire to housewives grates on one’s nerves like \a flat carwheel. What prohibition needs is somebody with horse sense to salvage it from the folks who play with it, and enforce it sanely for the benefit of everybody.
