to sav that I'm a member of the
Ku Klux Klan. That charge is a
complete falsehood. I have never
belonged to the Ku Klux Klan
nor ever attended any of its

"We can't arpte with the Juds on that
point, can we Mabel? It's not fair to penalize
the many fur the actions of the lew,"
"That, folks." is exactly what we would be
doing In this country il we ever voted tor
prohibition again. Authorities who have
made a careful study of the problem, report
that only about 5 of those who drink
abuse the privilege occasionally... 95 drink
sensibly. Probably doesn't compare with
the number of folks who overeat and do
other thing to excess. Prohibition certainly

Isn't the answer. It's not that simple. We
had nearly 14 years prool of that, didn't we?
"The real answer is education and better
control. In fact, the responsible members of
the distilling industry are working con
llnntly toward that end. They don't want
anybody to abuse the use of their product
any mors than the three of us do."

lifted the problem of peace out
of partisan pm'llc . . . i can
say that an overwhelming ma
