WHTSKEY TAKES THE STEERING
WHEEL

In a recent series OF graphic bull
letins. the National Safety Council
points TO a tremendous increase in
drunken driving during the past
year-and 10 4 substantial gain IN
the number OF deaths and injuries
due to mixing alcohol and gasoline.
The first twelve months Of repeal
may have been beneficial in some
respects-but it left a devastating
trial Of death behind il. Severe as
the drunken driving problem was
during prohibition, it has become
daubly severe now.
The best Obtainable statistics in
d:cate that five to ten per cent OF
both drivers and pedestrians in
VOlVed in traffic accidents are under
the influence of liquor. These sta
tistics. however. in the belief OF the
Council, understate matters, mas
much as Il multitude of accidents
occur in which drinking is factor
hut Is not reported for one reason
or another. A short time ago a
thorough survey was made OF ll9
accidents involving ll6 injuries and
fatalities-and it showed that in so
per cent Of the accidents the alcO-
hOl factor was involved. According
to the authority making this survey,
as little as one ounce of whiskey
will cause 4 measurable loss Of
driving efficiency in the average per-
son.
Reports from traffic departments
throughout the nation thoroughly
back up the fact that drunken driV-
ing is showing an astounding gain.
Drunken driving arrests amount to
from 20 to 100 per cent more than
they did a year ago. and police au-
ihorities likewise state that a rising
percentage OF accidents can be /
lscribed TO the little black bottle" !
Here is a problem that involves
he health, life and property of every /
citizen. It is a problem that must /
be fought by us all. drys and vets ,
nike. Under the best of conditions. /
