Noted Prohibitionist Says That
College Drinking Problem
Greatly Exaggerated

I
Senator Borah to Debate Ques.
tion of Prohibition on
Purdue Campus
"All this talk about the young folks
going to the dogs and drinking them
selves blind is pure nonsense-colleges
are to have a reputation for being wet
because the shortcomings of a few stu
dents get into the papers as typical of
all students. If two or three college
fellows get drunk and cause a fuss, the
story can properly be found in all the
newspapers, but no mention is made of
the 10,000 or 20,000 students who os
tensibly do not drink."
That was W. E. "Pussyfoot ' John
son'a dispensation to the college man,
as reported in the Harvard Crimson.
Mr. Johnson evidently has faith, for
he lightly dismissed the uncovering o
a still in a'n Iowa State University
fraternity house, as insignificant when
compared to the "400 or 500 colleges ir
the country that have no stills.
Iowa State. University is less com
place'nt, and while several members ->1
the Sigma Chi fraternity are under ar
rest on charges of maintaining a stil'
in their cellar, and its alcoholic pro.
ducts in their rooms, other fraternity
heads are making clear that liquor is
found on "the most ideally regulated
campuses." They deny, of course, that
the situation is as serious as "commonly
held."
Purdue students will have opportuni
ty to survey the liquor problem from a
more abstract viewpoint some time be
fore the opening of Congress, when
Senator William E. Borah meets in
debate on the campus some nationally
known proponent of modification, in a
discussion of the Eighteenth amend
nment. The debate has been arranged
by the Purdue public speaking depart
mlent.
Whatever the degree, student drink
ing continues to demand the attention
of presidents and of courts. When Dr.
Williams Mather Lewis recently was
inaugurated as head of Lafayette Col
lege, he lost no time in announcing
that "There is no place at Lafayette
for men addicted to the use of liquor,

When two midshipmen froi the
Naval Academy were arrested recent!y
after a supposed "drinking bout," as
the press reports called it. the court
placeo no charges against the two men,
but instead started efforts to stamp out
Annapolis sources of intoxicants.
Almost coincident with the announce
,lIent of the Intercollegiate Prohibition
Association that it would start a drive
on college wets, numerous law viola
tions sprang up, much as if to show the
association that it has a fertile field in
which to operate.
