They give us a better idea of how our men react to things goirs on over there and back here at home." " I agree v.-ith you, Sam. I never miss one cf these stories in the papers or magazines. And there's one thing these -writers seem to rgres cn no mr.tter where they are stationed v.iA our men... and that is that the men who have left their hdmes and families to go away and fight this war den't want to come back and find that prohibition has been put ever on them while they were away . . . cilher nationally or locally. They have heard about the attempts being made and they resent it bitterly." ' I asree with, them, Judge, even though I don't happen to drink myself.
