SCORED AS FOLLY
Dry Forces Official Says
Night-Life Drinking Is
Debauching Youth.

National Civic League and vice chair

that the revenue from the manufac
ture and sale of alcoholic beverages
can justify the loss of life and limb
on the highways due to drinking
drivers and the debauchery of our
youth in licensed roadhouses, night
clubs and drink emporiums which dis
regard all laws for their regulation for
the sake of added profits.
In a review of the history of prohibi

dry* have forgotten.
"We were assured that there would
be no saloons," said the speaker, "but
the institution they have given us as
a substitute is far worse than the old
saloon. We were promised temperance,
but instead there is more drunkenness
to be seen on the streets and high
ways than at any time during prohibi
tion. We were assured that liquor
revenue would balance the budget and
reduce our taxes, but it has done
neither.”
Schmidt urged his hearers to forget
