The Rise and Fall of Prohibition / The Human Side of What the Eighteenth Amendment and the Volstead Act Have Done to the United States - Charles Hanson Towne

I have seen hulking men enter a shop at nine in the morning, hastily tear off an ice-cream soda containing I know not what flavoring and dash out again into the world of business. No habitual drunkard could show a worse record. The soda-fiend is a sensualist, knowing nothing of the healthy ecstasy of comradeship. He is a solitary drinker of the worst sort.
