THE LINCOLN STAR THURSDAY, DECEMBER IK 194! SEVEN Elmer Meyers, 19, Reported To what I'm talking about Many a winter's snow has passed over my head. I was born back in the days of the open saloon, and saw the evils of that period. 1 lived through the prohibition era, and know that its success and effectiveness, while not 100, was still so great that the wets were frustrated, and it was the cleanest and decentest era of our national history. I have lived to see the saloons come back again and they are viler than ever, because those who operate them are not satisfied to wreck and ruin men alone, but must plot and scheme to include women in their diabolic system of debauch cry. 1 have seen young girls drinking at the bars; and I know, as does everybody who has any sense at all, that girls and women can lose their virtue through legalized booze just as quickly as through bootleg stuff.

I know, too, that there's many a young fellow in prison today who would not be there if drink had been let alone. $25,000 DOODLEBUG SUIT IS DISMISSED ispcui Tha atari FALLS CITY, Dec. 11 The doodlebug suit which has aroused much interest here has been thrown out of court by District Judge Virgil Falloon.
