The saloon has gone, it is true, but it went under state prohibition and under local option. In the great cities, the saloon is still doing business. There is no dearth of liquor anywhere. No matter where one goes, it is easy to secure booze if one has the price. Eoot legger3 and moonshiners are doing a most flourishing busi ness. For every still that is confiscated, there are a dozen new ones operated. For every brewery or winery closed, there ar a thousand home-breweries and home-wineries functioning. Prohibition has not kept liquor from the young. Strong spirits remain one of the principal causes of juvenile delinquency, are playing a more prominent part today than ever in the downfall of youth. Any juvenile court or any welfare worker will confirm this. Nor has prohibition stopped drunkenness and abolished crime though it has increased the use of drugs. The court records of Portland are a fair example. In 1917 there were 1212 arrests for drunkenness; in 1913, nearly 1700; in 1919, there were 1900 arrests; in 1920, the number had increased to 2476; in 1921, there were 2349 drunks arrested. These are dry facts but they are facts and not very dry at that. ! following strip cf Terse, wrtttea Is his ha ad aad dedicated to "Jerry": 1 "The kits complete, the ttaioa of souls.
