Now millions of dollars are going into the g B pockets of bootleggers and moonshiners, and the hip-pocket flask, so g 13 detrimental to the morals of our young manhood and womanhood, has g css = H been established by the Volstead Act. g B Women, young boys and girls who seldom, if ever, indulged in any g E intoxicating liquor, are now drinking hard liquor in considerable g H quantities, and the effect upon the social and moral tone of the g H community is anything but good.
