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

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

“Give probation and charity and
social effort all the credits you like,”
continues the writer, “but had

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.
