BOOZEOLOGY
While the United States struggles frantically in the
throes of prohibition laws, Europe sets back and gives
js the merry ha! ha! At least so say returning Alas
kans.
Again we hear that over in Europe liquor continues
to flow as it has in centuries past; the experiment days
were over with this question eons ago. And European
prisons are practically empty. Here, in America, good
liquor is as scarce as hens teeth and our jails, even
with spring upon us, are over-flowing and bigger and
better than ever.
We leave it to the layman to figure out the solu
tion.
In the meantime we are wondering where our so
called and boasted efficiency is; it would appear these
alleged experts should have the riddle of the world
solved for the United States by this time.
To our way of thinking contentment is the .only
thing in this little old world worth having or striving
for; individually, Americans are restless under the dry
law. And any law which requires billions to enforce,
cannot be a good law. Mr. Average Citizen knows that
courts are cluttered up with booze law infringements;
the outgrowth of the present crime wave throughout
the country leads directly to this law whether or not
many believe otherwise.
They say the coming generation—at present, the
kiddies—will not know the meaning of liquor. Laugh
that off! From the earliest dawn of history liquor has
been with us and so it will be when the final curtain
Is run down and Mother Earth fades into oblivion.
Read in today’s paper what Attorney Mitchell said
before the Senate committee. Glance over the vote at
San Francisco for repeal.
Now England rules that any captain, engineer or
mat-* caught carrying liquor into the United States
will lose his license. Heavens above! Booze is going to
take another jump.
