ONE SPREE A YEAR
ALLOWED
FOR CONTROL OF
DRUNKARDS PASSED BY LEGIS-
LATURE NOW BEFORE MAYOR
GAYNOR OF NEW YORK.

New York, May 21.-Drunkenness
is established as penal offense and
rules even more strict than were ever
prescribed in the Puritan days are
ment Of those who indulge too free
ly in intoxicants in a bill which has
been passed by the legislature and
sent to Mayor Gaynor for his con-
sideration.
The mayor has announced that he
will give public hearing on the
measure at IL o'clock Monday fore
noon. All that is required to make
the act effective is the signatures of
the mayor and the governor.
Board of Inebriety Named.
BY the terms of the measure the
board of estimates gains authority to
establish a board of inebriety to con-
sist of seven members, five to be ap-
pointed by the mayor, of whom two
shall be physicians. The other two
members are to be the commissioner
of charities and the commissioner of
corrections.
Appointments to the board may be
made from lists submitted by the
United Hebrew Charities, the st. Vim
cent de Paul society, the New York
Association for Improving the Con-
dition of the Poor and the Brooklyn
Association of Charities.
One Spree Allowed.
A man would be allowed to have
one "spree" annually without fear of
being hustled back to nature and put
to work on a farm colony. The sec
ond offense might be fraught with
far-reaching consequences if the Gull
prit happened to come under the at
tention of an agent of the board of
inebriety.
The board, by the proposed act,
receives authority to establish farm
colony and a hospital for the care of
inebriates. 1t is provided that per-
son who has not been arrested for
IL months may, if he gets into trou-
BILE, present request to a magis-
trate and demand dismissal. If less
than IL months should elapse be-
tween arrests he might be committed
to the hospital or colony for not less
than one year and not more than
three years.
1.-The law delegates authority to
persons known as field officers, CIV
ing them practically judicial func-
tions,' said Magistrate Barlow, presi-
dent of the board of magistrates,
yesterday. THE plan is not scien-
tific and a poor fellow might be
given three years hard work on a
farm for getting drunk three times.
1t seems to me that it offers great
powers for corruption"
