Doctors Disagree on Effect
of Near Beers and Wines

Atlantic City, n. j., June 13.-Op-
posite views regarding the effect of
beers and wires of low alcoholic con-
tent on the human system were ex-
pressed by speakers before the Amer
lean Medical Association in annual
convention here.
DIR Lambert OFT, of Philadelphia,
said such drinks were not intoN-
eating, but that on the. other hand,
they were healthful and their sale
under government supervision
should be continued. Beer and
wine of low alcoholic contents" he
said are a real aid to digestion"
Declaring there is a tendency to-
ward excess in all beer drinkers, Dr.
Bernard Fantus of Chicago, took di-
rect issue with DR.. OFT. IF the alco-
holic content of beer were reduced"
said DR.. Fantus, instead of COM
plete prohibition, these beer drink
ers would drink twice as much as
formerly, with the same disastrous
effects"
