Boston drinking among the younger generation, especially girls, has In-. creased to a scandalous degree. In the wake of increased drinking has followed greater Immorality. Conditions are alarming and -have frightened our local clergymen of every denomination. "Juries Will Not Convict The cheap dance halls have become hip-pocket barrooms, and many so-called society dances are included in thle Indictment.

Only the other day the probation officer of my local Police Court bemoaned to me the Increase in recent years In the number of youths of tender age maled before his court for drunkenness. Similar deplorable conditions obtain in the adjoining cities. "For a period of one year, June, 1923, to June, 1924, I was assistant clerk of the Superior Criminal Court of Suffolk County of Massachusetts, which county Includes the cities of Boston, Chelsea, Revere and the town of WInthrop. This office I resigned to become a member of Congress. "During my term of service as clerk of this court our docket was Overcrowded with liquor cases.

During every month of that time one Jury session of the court, and at times two jury sessions, were devoted exclusively to trial of liquor cases, and never were we able even to approach cleaning up the docket of liquor case. "As clerk, I wish -to testify that during my time of service In Suffolk County juries were most unwilling to convict in liquor cases, and In 75 percent of the cases did not convict, even upon the production of satisfactory evidence by the Government. was my experience that Jurors, most of them good men and true, as the spirit of the statute required, could not generally, even upon their oaths, bring themselvea to return verdicts of guilty against their fellow men for selling liquor, an article with the ue of which most of the Jurora were themselves intimately familiar Invariably the Jurqrs were quite willing to return not-gullty verdicts upon th.j evidence being brought out that the vender of the liquor was celling good stuff. "Juries Not Corrupt "Now, these jurors were average men chosen from the body of the county; they were not corrupt or corruptible, they were simply human and followed the unfortunate (psychology of their times, made degenerate by a detested Prohibition law, and they could not, as a whole, consider the selling of liquor in these days a crime. In Massachusetts before prohibition, failure of Juries to convict in liquor cases was never a public scandal, as Is the case at the present time.

"The district I have the honor to represent in Congress is made up chiefly of the laboring classes, who are practically unanimous in their demand for the modification of th Volstead evil. Among my constituent! are some 4000 or G000 longshoremen, hard-working sons of toil, who burn out their energies and waste their bodies in the arduous task of loading and unloading the shps at our docks, located along one of the finest harbors In the world. "These men contribute by their daily occupation to our commercial greatness and prosperity. Their lot In life Is not an easy One. They work harder than most people, dependent upon their manual efforts to make their livelihood honestly.

They need In their daily occupation, perhaps more than any other class of our people, the stimulus and food-value of euch beverages as ale and beer. These beverages contribute to their health and to their comfort and content. Connerys Plea "These men have importuned me to represent their wishes to Congress. They want their ale and beer for the reasons already stated. If they can have these boverayes necessary to thdm they are willing to forego, the us of hard liquor.

"They want and are entitled to have beer and ale, a privilege they enjoyed before the advent of the Volstead act. and I ask you no longer to deprive our people of ale and beer of an alcoholic content, nonalcoholic in fact." Congressman Connery of Lynn, who appeared before tne Senat Committee which is investigating the working of the Prohibition law, this morhing filed a wiltten statement favoring a modification of the dry law, and added a few Remarks, saying that he had been a total abstainer all his life, joining the Fr Mathew Society at the age of 14, and regarded the present law unfair to the working man, who was denied his glass of beer, while the rich had their well-stocked cellars of prewar liquors. He denounced the present law as one that is ruining the morals of the youth of the land, while thousands who nev-e- drank before are now recognized tippler.

Sir Charles then said that newspapers could do a great deal of good in bringing about a better understanding between the Nations by the printing of proper Lews. Many people, he said, who know of America only through the press conietimes think that it is a land of roughnecks and expect to be slugged when out at night.
