Oh, I get it!

More of the Plea
“You! You parents,and grandparents, and friends, and teachers, and preachers--all of you! ‘The war!’ you cry. ‘It is the effect of the war!’ And then you blame prohibition. Yes! Yet it is you who set the example there! But this is my point: Instead of helping us work out our problems with constructive, sympathetic thinking and acting, you have muddled them for us more hopelessly with destructive public condemnation and denunciation.”8
