Just What Is the "Liquor by current the Drink" Plan? During the Iowans have gubernatorial been hearing polisl campaign, "liquor by the drink." Both Undidates have been ignoring making the some fact state- that rents, take legislative to change the apparently present has liquor been demonstrated set-up in for Iowa. many As there are all shades of opinion rears, control--all the way from bal prohibition has been everything said in wide favor open. of Much by the drink" has stemmed from the Miquor fact that there has been a breaking HOWD in the river towns. Many of the of law enforcement in the state, esrecially key clubs have been flagrant vio- 90- Called lators in this respect. But when it comes to yet liquor spelled by the drink, no what candidate plans has to present to the out exactly legislature or will accept from the legis- tore.

Many Iowans would like to know this before control accepting law. any the change in hesent liquor by the drink be sold in taverns? Or will liquor by the be made available through the existing presstate liquor stores? It is hardly necesbrink ent ary to say that those two ideas are highly Critics of the present situation comdivergent. that the law is not enforced. But blain hardly the fault of the present law -that responsibility rests. on the public hat is rhich condones the out their violations and officers tho If fail liquor to by carry the drink became available, responsibilities.

there be any better enforcement could This nation once had national prohibfthe law? only too many well remember bootlegging and the making of hootch lion--and he Do You Remember? that went on. Will liquor, by the drink revert this state to wide open saloon? Again say, "God forbid." Again enforcement of many of the older, people will reverently the liquor laws was always a problemlated -and only too many saloon keepers viothose laws. The Journal-Tribune would be the first to say that there is much to be desired in the enforcement of the present control law. But we fail to see that it would liquor be much different under any other plan, even liquor by the drink. It was true during national prohibition.

We are going to be bold as to say there is no perfect liquor enforcement plan. But as for the present liquor control law and the sale of liquor through state stores, the entire subject is taken out of politics. At least, towns and cities are not shutting their eyes to violations because of the big license fee involved under the old saloon plan. Much is being said about the amount of revenue to be derived from liqour by the drink. Is the state of Iowa going to change its policy of 25 years standing from liquor control to a policy of revenue from the sale of liqour? Under the Iowa plan, liquor is available to those who want it, but it is not flaunted before young people as it is in states adjoining Iowa.

Iowa's present plan is not the perfect plan by any means, but as for others they are less perfect. It seems to the Journal-Tribune that Iowa has done quite well under the present law for more than 25 years. If there is something better, let the proponents spell it out word for word and item by item. But we think it is unfair for all, the pronounced dry and the pronounced wet, to speak in generalities.

As 1, think about all the 24, things kids haven to entertain themselves now, as TV, bowling, school activities, '1 wonder how we entertained. ourselves when I was a teenager. MY home town was just half the size of Williamsburg. We had no school gym.

The boys played some but scheduling on had a outdoor basketball during, the fall catch-as-catch-can basis. We no coach. There was no school band, though we had good sized girls and boys glee clubs. It was some time while I was in high school that a movie opened in my home town. But even then I didn't have enough money to attend very often.

-S- a AS I think back I must have been a pest in many places of activity in my home town. I had a deepdyed curiosity which never seemed satisfied in what was going on in some places in different parls of town. Back in those days the most common greeting which men said to a kid was: "Does your mother know you're out?" BLACKSMITH SHOPS Here was a never ending sequence of activity which always wheted the curiosity of a growing boy. It was always thrilling to see the blacksmith put a piece of red hot iron on his anvil and, pound it into shape. Only too often the sparks would fly, warning to keep a safe distance.

Then if he wanted to cool the iron quickly, he plunged it into a tub of water, with a resounding hiss. Once in a while I would happen in when the blacksmith was shoeing a recalitrant horse, But after the smithy had spoken to the horse a couple of times to stand still, ho would apply a twitch to its nose. If the horse happened to be a kicker, he had a special stall device for keeping the horse in place. TILE FACTORY Boy, there were plenty of interesting sights goining on here all the time. I well remember the big one horse carts which hauled the clay from the pit to the faclory, distance of about a half mile.

The clay went into a big hopper and was mixed with the proper amount of water. Then a compressor pushed the formed tile out and cut it into proper length. The soft tile were then taken to the drying sheds. Eventually they were piled in a big kiln, the door cemented shut and the fire built. Many was the time I tagged the fireman around as he shoveled coal into the retorts.

One year so much tiling was done in northern Iowa that the factory could hardly make them fast enough. A few times the tile were taken from the kiln while it was still so hot it was almost unbearable to work in it. CREAMERY Strange to say, the means of making butter has changed little from the way it is done now as compared to when I was a kid. But if I heard the rumble of the churn 23 I passed the creamery, that was all I necded to step inside and see what was going on. S.

COOPER SHOP- -One man, a skilled workman with wood of all kinds, made the buttertubs for the creamery, The staves came all tapered and he set a tub together in a steel frame. Then he placed two wooden hoops around the tub after ho had fitted in the bottom. He had a special lathe for smoothing up the inside and outside of the tub. I never found out how many tubs he made by hand in a day, but it always seemed there was a big pile of them in his shop. DEPOTS There was always a lot of activity around both depots in my home town.

Four passenger trains a day both ways on each road. But, of course, a curious boy always found some way to get into the agent's office when he was at the telegraph key to sec him send out a message with the dot and dash method of the Morse code. IMPLEMENT SHOPS Farm machinery was shipped by railroad in those days, which meant that it came all knocked down to conserve space. After its delivery came the big job of putting all the parts gether. Could any curious kid resist that activity? Not on your tintype! It was quite a lesson in certain mechanical principles.

NEWSPAPER Oh, yes! There was always far too much going on around my hometown newspaper to stay away from there. Was it my unsatiable curiosity that finally resulted in my being offered a job? Maybe so. My hometown newspaper was first the located on bank). a There was no linotype there -so second floor (above all of the type was set by hand. The newspaper press was run by us a chugging gasoline engine.

S- ANOTHER unforgettable sight in my home town was watching the Rock Island trains come rolling in, with the firman standing on the apron between the locomotive and tender, emptying his water jug. There was a big flowing well just and across few trains failed to stop so the the tracks from the depot, engine men could refill their jugs with cold water.
