Ths passing of tbs saloon has meant not only increased savings but a corresponding increase of food, clothing, happiness and protection for the little ones in many homes. Statistics can never tell the child ren’s story of prohibition blessings, but the facte presented in Collier’s (of recent date) carry with them a significance. According to the writer, “The Now York Children’s Court report.« an average per year of 8,006 fewer delinquent and neglected children during 1922-24 than during the ton yean, 1912-21. “Chicago had 5,288 such cases in 1919 and 8,850 in 1923, which last was not aa prosperous as 1919 was. “Massacheusetts reports an aver age decrease during the five yean, 1920-24 of thirty per cent in crim inally ’tough kids.* ’The state’s pris on has fallen off one-half since 1910,* says Sanford Bates, Commis sioner of Correction." “Give probation and charity and social effort all the credits you like,” continues the writer, “but had scarce boon- nothing to do with it. The children and the children’s children will tell the story.” Operations of Former IsistiMaries Mor. Profitable Thao for Liq- or Manufacture One by one the Central Illinois distilleries, which were ranked a? the largest in the world, have been changed into manufacture of food and the various by-products of grain according to the Chicago Daily News. These were believed to have been doomed with the adoption of the Eighteenth Amendment, but in stead, more men are being employed and with a much larger pay roll than during the lays before the Voisted Act. i Prohibition’s predicted “economic blight” on Central Illinois did not materialise. The suspension of the great distilleries has meant simply their transformation into other in dustrial plants. Where in the past train-loads of whiskey were shipped to ail parts of the Union and coun tries of the globe, there are now moving lut even greater train-loads of foodstuffs, eoRunercial alcohol, cracked corn, silvents and the like.
