Chicago Drink Cure
Has Few Patients

This is from the annual report OF
the Washingtonian Home, in Chicago,
as reported in the Chicago American,
Feb. l, 1921:
"In 1920, 125 patients were treated
at this home-107 alcoholics, 10 drug
addicts and two mild mental cases.
During the years 1910-1o19, inclusive,
the average number of patients was
o21 year, and of these an average OF
SO per cent per year had the worst
form of holism-delirium tremens.
Last year we had only three cases
of delirium tremens. In the old days
before Prohibition one out of fifteen
men coming here suffered in this way;
now only one out of forty-one.
"The decrease of alcoholism among
women is even more noticeable. OF
forty-seven women received last year
only sixteen were treated for alcohol
ism, against 79 in 1919 and 100 in
1918.
There is a decided increase in the
age OF male patients, most of whom
are now between 40 and so instead of
under forty"

to hesitate, il necessary, to shoot to
kill any person caught in the act of

to take no chances.
"The instruction regarding the Pro-
