ACUTE BARBITAL (VERONAL) POISONING

Likewise the number of deaths from alcoholism nearly doubled last year. For 1922, the deaths numbered, 295 as against 141 for 1921. The number of deaths, however, is smaller than it was in the years preceding prohibition. In 1916, for example, 690 persons died in this city from alcoholism. The low mark was reached in 1920, with 127 deaths, but since that time there has been a rapid increase. Dr. Hubbards figures have been verified by those of the police department, which show that 7,866 persons were arrested in this city for drunkenness in 1922, as against 6,233 in 1921. In 1920, the number of arrests was 5,936. Dr. Hubbards interpretation of the figures is that prohibition has increased the number of immoderate drinkers, and that those who drink have switched from beer to spirits”.

Day by day, in every way, were growing wetter and wetter!.
