“Before prohibition every Monday was blue Monday for factory employers and employees. From 10 to 20 per cent, of the workers would not show up at all, being still either drunk or sick from drinking—at least they were unable to get back to work. To-day on a Monday there is less than one-half of one per cent, of absence on account of liquor, and the large manufacturer soon discharges any man found to be an habitual drunkard or unreliable because of drink.” —Herman H Doehler, President. Doehler Die Casting Company. Brooklyn, N.Y.
