Commissioner Haynes says that his organization is only
a skeleton now of what he intends to make it, so that pros

tne cost ol enforcing dryness in the future.

AJI this great expenditure, to which must be added
several times as much by state, county and city governments,
ha3 not accomplished its purpose. 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.
