[THE GREENCASTEE DAIEY BANNER, MONDAY, MAY 20.1929.
DID YOU KNOW 26 states voted 100 per cent dry. 12 states voted more dry than wet. 2 states voted 100 per cent wet. When the Jones law was voted on by members of the lower House the vote stood 284 to 90. Does this look like prohibition was
“put over”?
100 Neal institutes and 76 Keeley institutes for the cure of alcoholism have closed for lack of business since the adoption of the 18th Ammendment. Does this indicate that prohibition is not effective. Since the day constitutional prohibition went into effect the United States has increased 8% in population; hig-h school attendance, has increased 65% and college attendance has doubled every
four years.
It this evidence that prohibition is demoralizing: the youth of the country? Constitutional prohibition put out of business 177,790 saloons, 1,090 breweries and 500 distilleries. Dividends paid by industrial and commercial organizations have increased 144 per cent, bank de-
posits 53%.
Does this show that the liquor industry was the backbone of National prosper-
ity?
