Col Andrews Leads Sanitation Drive Through New York Streets
The narrative recalls Col William H. Waring Jr and compares him to Col Andrews in enforcing prohibition era cleanliness. It notes New York’s sanitation reforms using white duck suits and helmets, portraying street sweepers as martial marshals, and mentions similar efforts in Havana and the impact on public morale and enforcement mentality.
Obvious results will happen to public enemies and allies
The piece argues rum runners and bootleggers will be viewed as public enemies and associates aiding bootleggers behind lines will be seen as enemies in war terms. It reflects on a national spirit akin to Col. Andrews' methods and effectiveness across fields.
