1920
AN EXPERT OPINION
Mayor James Couzens of Detroit is quoted as saying:
"I have never been a teetotaler. I have voted wet. But if another election were held now I would vote dry. I believe Detroit would. Prohibition has been a revelation. It has upset all the alarmist predictions of the wets and more than sustained all the rosiest predictions of the drys."
SETTING A NEW FASHION
Roundabouter in San Diego Union: Since President Wilson was seen to drink his coffee with the spoon still in the cup while in San Diego last August, I understand that it is becoming quite a fad with San Diego society people.
