They have done good service, however, in emphasizing the fact that intemperance is greatly aggravated among the poorer classes by their poverty, and the squalor and misery that go with poverty in the great cities. Friends of the temperance cause must realize more clearly than they have in the past that closing the saloon will accom- plish little good, so long as the demand for drink con- tinues — the "speak easy" and the "blind tiger" in that case will simply take the place of the saloon, and t...he evil is hardly touched. They should not forget, as reformers have been too prone to do, that men must be won, not driven, Y 322 SOCIALISM AND THE ETHICS OF JESUS to virtue — that reforms forced on an unwilling commu- nity accomplish nothing but revolt and ethical confusion worse confounded. Better material conditions must be provided for the poorer classes before marked improve- ment in temperance can be rationally anticipated. That drunkenness is a cause of poverty is generally recognized, but it is becoming clear that it is also an effect — men are poor because they drink and they drink because they are poor.
