Tuesday. DR.. Robert v. seliger Of
the National Committee for Alcohol
Hygiene, Baltimore, is expected to
testify later in the week. On Mon
day, March 10, DR.. E. M. Jellinek
and DR.. Sleden D. Bacon of Yale
University will appear.
DR.. Bacon is chairman of the
Connecticut Board OF Trustees Of
the 1nebriate Fund. The board has
wide powers in attacking alcoholism
as a public health problem, under .
law similar to the Hebert Bill.
The bill, sponsored by Repre-
sentative Hebert, Democrat, of LOU
isiana, declares chronic alcoholism
to be disease rather than Grim.
inal offense. 1t proposes a system
Of out-patient clinics for alcoholics,
to be financed by a special tax on
the gross sales Of the local liquor
industry.
Will Visit Court.
The committee will 60 to Munich
pal Court tomorrow morning to
watch. the court handle the Monday
morning lineup Of drunks, which
frequently totals more than 100.
Yesterday the subcommittee heard
representatives Of local retailers and
wholesalers approve the purpose Of
the bill but oppose the special tax.
Some held that, since drunkenness Is
community problem, it should be
treated at the expense of the whole
community. Others felt the problem
should be raised to q national leve.
and financed out Of Federal excise
levies on liquor.
Prominent "drys" approved the
bill but expressed doubt that it will
solve the problem. These witnesses
included Miss Elizabeth Smart Of
the National Women's Christian
Temperance Union, Mrs. Caroline E.
Coates, District WCTU, and DR..
Clinton N. Howard, general super
intendent of the International Re-
form Federation.
DR.. Howard, who told the SUBJ
committee he has been a student of
alcoholism for so years, said the
liquor industry Should carry its
own casualties"
Tax on Ads Suggested.
He preferred that the. clinics be
financed by appropriation rather
than through tax on liquor sales.
DR.. Howard recommended a tax
oasthe liquor advertisements, which
he said should be considered part
of the liquor business.
Howard B. Gill, former superin-
tendent of District penal institu-
tions, presented the subcommittee
with a three-point program calling
for:
l. Establishment Of a clinic under
the Department of Corrections for
convicts whose criminal activities
were related to alcoholism or an
outgrowth of it, and clinic under
the Health Department for all other
drunks.
2. Elimination of drunkenness,
when not combined with disturb
ance of the peace or other legal Of
fense, from the District code as. q
criminal offense, so that drunks
could be taken home or to hospitals
instead Of to jail.
