WILL SALOONS COME. BACK?
bye gt *
‘
Will repeal of the 18th amendment mark the end of the
nation’s liquor problems? California editors apparently don’t
think so.
Unless proper control of the manufacture and sale of
liquor is adopted, they say, we may still have the speakeasy
flourishing, with all its attendant evils.
_ “The faces of the American people are definitely set against
the salloon,”’ said the Salinas Index-Journal, “‘but the years of
pfohibition have created a new institution in the shape of the
speakeasy; where people of both sexes congregate and drink.
‘The elimination of this is not going to. be déne overnight. The
reasonable drinker who enjoys liquor in one form or another
‘will be content with the privilege to buy in packages and not
consume the contents in the place where the purchase is made.
But do not forget there are millions of people who are not inclined that way, and in that fact lies a definite problem.”’
Declaring for stringent control of liquor sales, the Vallejo
Times-Herald asks: ““Today, as the eighteenth amendment is
passing, are the various states, counties, and municipalities
‘prepared to meet the new conditions? Have they adopted
proper regulations? Is the saloon, and all of its attendant
evils, definitely legislated out of future existence? We believe
‘that the American people can be trusted to go further along
lines of true temperance after repeal than they did during the
fourteen years; PROVIDED the various legislative bodies of
the land recognize some of the pitfalls and errors of preprohibition days.and guard against them.”’ .
According ‘to the Los Angeles Record, “‘It is not a bit too
early to start this work. Unless all signs fail, the prohibition
law has only a short time to live. The whole problem will
then be turned back. to the states, and it is essential that the
states have the information which will enable them to:‘make an
intelligent choice of their course thereafter.”
: In the same vein, the San Francisco News remarks, ‘lt is
important that the states lose as little as possible in passing regulations otherwise they will encourage the schemes of
racketeers to seize more control. It is even moxe important
that these laws should prevent the recurrence of the pre-prohibition evils and advance moderate, open and civilized habits among the people.’’
Commenting on the state
the November, 1932 election, the Long
. states: a ;
“Some Californians now are discovering for the first time
that they voted to deprive their own city and their county of .
jurisdiction over the liquor trade, while others are surprised to
learn from a statement by the state board of equalization that
the state law will forbid saloons or bars for the dispensing of
alcoholic beverages. Prospective liquor dealers are ‘warned
_ that if they invest'in saloon fixtures they will be wasting their
money, for saloons are prohibited by the liquor control act.
Also, adds the Orange Daily News, “many communities
which have legalized the sale of 3.2 per cent beer will object to
the sale of hard liquor and will demand the right to control
the matter in accord with local sentiment. The principle of
local option was well established in this country before prohibition and it is unlikely that any legislature will refuse to grant
that right to communities. Until such action is taken, however,

The preface to “Wild Flowers of

paragraph which I think is worth incorporating. :
“To the. thoughtless a flower is

—pbut that is all.
“But to the mind open to the great
