’’The war stories 1 like best. Judge, are
the onep by the special writers overctta
who live right with our troops. They give
us a better idea of how our men react
to things going on over there and back
here at home.”
**I agree wittryou, Sam. 1 never miss one
of those stories in the papers or magazines.
And there’s one thing those writers seem to
agree on no matter where they are stationed
with our men...and that is that the men
who have left their homes and families to go
away and fight this war don’t want to come
back and find that prohibition has been put
over on them while they were away... either
nationally or locally. They have heard about
the attempts being made and they resent
it bitterly.”
”1 agree with them, Judge, even though
I don’t happen to drink myself. Further­
more, I don’t think it’s fair for us at home
to be making any major changes while
10,000,000 of our fighting men are awayund
have no chance to express their opinions.”
