Wheeler, the anti- saloon league mouthpiece, who had characterised attacks by Senators Bruce of Maryland, and Edge of New Jersey, on tho Volstead act as being actuated by tho "emptiness of their stomachs' was entered by the senate by Bruce, who declared Wheeler was actuated by tho "em tineas of his head."

If the claim of tho wots woro true that America is drinking as much or more than ever, then It Is curious that manufacturers find workers steadier nnd production Increased: retailers find their trado multi plied because of Increased earning power of workers and the legtlmate expenditure of money once wasted on drink: that bankers. Insurance men, builders and all the agon cles of production and distribution j echo the same tnr."
