Isn’t this the real problem of Beer
--and almost its only problem!
M
/
THERE ARE people, of course, who stead-
fastly and sincerely believe beer to be intox-
'icating, or its use sinful, harmful, or a first;
j step toward use of “hard liquor.”
; Just as sincerely we hold that the weight
"of the evidence is overwhelmingly against
! them...that beer is a mild, wholesome food
beverage.. .and that “there is nothing more
promising to combat the evil of too much
alcohol than the opportunity of drinking
good beer.”
No~.it is not in beer itself, we believe, that
ata gravest problem lies, but in those condi-
tions, undesirable to us all, which sometimes
iiurround its sale.
, How should that problem be handled...
by brewers, by retailers, by consumers, and
by the public authorities? On its handling,
;wq believe, depends the ultimate success or
failure of the art and science of brewing,
with all its manifold contributions to human
pleasure and happiness and to the farm and
fexbntriai welfare of this country..
j * * *
\ in dud: belief, a short time ago the Brewers
Fbuarfatkm was organized „ . to align the
brewing industry with forces working for
tbs public good in this country.
Our underlying motive... to perpetuate
and promote our industry ... is of course
obviws. But equally obvious, we hope, is
£ba fact that our interests coincide with the
' pubhc interest.
f iraportantprogress has been made. Brewer-
ssembers of the Foundation already represent
nearly half the production of beer and ale in
the United States; and these members are
pledged, individually and collectively, to the
Brewers Code, one significant clause of which
is as follows:
“We pledge our support to the duly con-
stituted authorities for the elimination of
anti-social conditions wherever they may
surround the sale of beer to the consumer.”
Being practical men, we promise no mira-
cles. We cannot immediately or effectively
“police” the quarter-million points wher^T
beer is sold (nor, to be fair, have we legal
authority in many cases to do so). Nor can
we, immediately, bring about full compliance
with the law among all retailers, nor honest
enforcement by all authorities.
But a beginning has been made...and we
do promise that you will see results from it.
* * *
How far we can go, and how soon, depends
very much on ourselves...but partly also
on you.
Public opinion, once aroused, can operate
to bring about honest enforcement of exist-,
ing laws. Restriction of your patronage only*
to legal, respectable retail outlets can and
will operate to raise retailing standards.
Public preference for the products of Foun-
dation members* will bear witness of your
approval both to members and to cooperat-
ing retailers, and will encourage them to
renewed efforts.
« * * *
This is, therefore, at once a statement of our
objectives and an appeal for your support^,
without which we must fall short of our high
hopes. We urgently invite your full and4
sympathetic cooperation.

WILLIAM W. ALLEN
FOR COUNTY ATTORNEY
I hereby announce my
candidacy for re-election to
the office of County Attorney
of Lavaca County, Texas, sub-
ject to the action of the pri-
mary election of the Demo-
cratic party to be held on
July 23rd, 1938.
I was appointed to said of-
fice on August 8th, 1936, to
fill an unexpired term, and
was also on said date select-
ed as the nominee of the
Democratic party by the
County Executive Committee
of said party, and was elect-
ed to said office in the gener-
al election in November 1936.
I was born in Hallettsville,
Lavaca County, Texas and
have lived in this County all
my life, except for periods
spent at school, teaching
school, and short periods at
work elsewhere. I am a gradu
ate of the University of Tex-
as, School of Law, and have
been a practicing attorney
and a member of the Hal-
lettsville Bar, since June,
1929.
Having served the people
of this County as their Coun-
ty Attorney since Aug. 8th,
1936, I feel that I thoroughly
understand the duties and re-
sponsibilities of this office,
and my pledge to the citizens
of this County is for a fair
and impartial prosecution of
violations of the law, based
on fairness and reason, and
for a prompt, courteous and
efficient attendance to all the
duties incumbent on this of-
fice.
I am grateful for the op-
portunity previously accorded
me to serve the citizens of
this County in this capacity,
and believing that my con-
duct of this office has met
with the general approval of
the people of the County, I
announce for re-election there
to, and will greatly appre-
ciate the support of the
electorate of this County in
the coming primary election.
Respectfully submitted,
William W. Allen.

Less Monthly Discomfort
Many women, who formerly suf-
fered from v weak, run-down con-
dition as a result of poor assimila-
tion of food, say they benefited by
taking CARDUI, a special medicine
for women. They found it helped to
increase the appetite and improve
digestion, thereby bringing them
more strength from their food.
Naturally these is less discomfort
at monthly periods when the system
has been strengthened and the vari-
ous functions restored and regulated.
Cardul, praised by thousands of women,
Is well worth trying. Of course, if not
benefited, consult a physician.
