If any accur ate estimate can be made while so many men are away at the fighting fronts, it would appear that drunken - ' In England and Wales has de creased since the war began. A Blue Book has been 'issued purporting to show a decrease of 47,017 convictions for drunkenness during 1915. The greatest decrease in the con sumption of liquor appeared in agri- culturles counttries on the east coast. In some of these convictions for drunkenness dropped 41.8 per een?. The "no treating" law undoubtedly has aided in reducing the consump tion of intoxicants. During the last six months of 1915 there were only 42,342 conv'ictions for violating the no treat" law as compared to 48. 750 during the first half of the year.
