A study argues that Russia's prohibition cut alcohol sales and boosted savings during wartime, with Petrograd and Moscow showing high compliance.

The piece condemns liquid fire and gas warfare and praises Britain and France for not retaliating with similar methods. It also notes Speaker Clark averting a lynching in Missouri versus Georgia politics.
