WCTU Rallies
Against Spiked
Water Supply
By the University Snooze Service
DETROIT, Mich., Feb. 7-Mar-
tial law was proclaimed here to-
day after mass demonstrations by
a local chapter of the WCTU, sup-
ported by the U. of M. Students'
Chapter of Alcoholics Anonymous,
disrupted business life in the city
and surrounding area.
The WCTU went into actiin
upon discovering that the Detroit
city water reservoir had been
spiked. Parades, rallies and radio
broadcasts campaigned for an in-
vestigation of the "shocking con-
ditions of laxity" which had al-
lowed such an outrage to be per-
petrated.
Military rule was instituted at
the request of city officials to pre-
vent a permanent tie-up of busi-
ness and shopping facilities as a
result of the vigorous campaign
being waged.
School officials made every ef-
fort to restrain children from
drinking the healthful eight
glasses of water a day they had
previously required. Fresh air was
recommended as an invigorating
substitute.
Numerous suspects were being
held by military police. Those who
refused to indulge in alcoholic
beverages were released at once.
Latest report from the jail went
to the tune of "Sweet Adeline."
