Praises State Tode.
Nebraska has one of the best and
most workable enforcement codes of
. any state in the union, and notwith
standing the fact "that the wets are
making a terrific drive to break down
enforcement and bring the law into
disrepute," we feel that prohibition
is a great success. F. A. High, super
intendent of the Anti-Saloon League
of Nebraska, declared.
"In our industrial centers like
South Omaha, prior to prohibition,
one would be struck with the (treat
number of poorly-dressed women
and shabbily-dressed children," said
Mr, High, "but going down the same
itreets now. a great change will be
noticed. Men, women and children
trod the streets at the same hour
comfortably dressed, either headed
for the motion picture show or with
baskets on their arms headed for
the grocery store.
"Money formerly spent for liquor
is now being spent for family com
forts. Outside the industrial cen
ters the same improvement is notice.
