A wild Waste

Considered only AZ an economic
question, the use of intOXiCants raises
an issue of stupendOus Importance
The drink bill of tho people Of the
United States amounts to IA little
more than ~, 800, 900, 600 year
When the Federal Congress appro-
priated for the first time the sum OF
81 200 900, 900, the fact provoked
much adverse comment, and the
Congress was ceusured ms 1.-THE bill
lion dollar Congress. But the bar
Keepers of the United States gather
annually more than twice as much
from the people, aud it is considered
a very light matter
our national drink bill would pay
sur national debt in less than one
year. But what In actually con-
suned in drink does not measure
The entire loss We must reckon al
so the loss of industry and the pro-
duets ~ industry which the us" OF
Intoxicating liquors entails. We
must take into account also the
fearful consequences of intemper-
ance jS the production of pnuperism,
insanity, AVID urime--al Of which
lay heavy burdens EPou the nation.
The reports Of the Department of
Agriculture for last year show that
40 per cent of the corn produced in
this country during the year was
used in producing fermented liquors,
which left only per cent. Is there
any wonder in the high cost of liv.
ing, when such showing is made?

Yet at it's session there were brought
forth some startling fRcts about the
use of alcoholics and their relation
to health and economies. Among
other things "A carefully prepared
chart was exhibited showing the eN'
| endlture for drink In New York
City in comparison with the incomes
Of the wage earners there. 1t showed
that families with an income of SOL
n year spend on an average annually
s.. ~ for intoXicants; those with an
income of $jJG spend Sl64i; and
those with an income of s63S spend
for drink $2l .0s. After giving these
and other striking figures, the chart
saws, "As n whole the families
studied could add ut least one room
to their over.crowded houses If the
money spent for intoXicants were
devoted to rent" 1t is liquor then
that has much to do with budding
helpless women and children int.
