TEN MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE Wednesday. Mar ! Your Health and It's Care By OR. WILLIAM BRA0Y. M.D. Readers ihould address Inquiries toi Or. William Bradr. 265 El Camino. Beverly Hills. Calli. I ! f. , si. t THEIR WIVES AND I A good many alcoholics put away a half pint or more of whisky on the side, and drinlt their Deer in public, says my me d 1 c a 1 colleague who is a recognized a u t h ority on the effects of alcohol. The beer serves as an excuse for their "breath" and as an alibi to help show they do not Dr. Brady drink heavily but only "some beer". Beer gets the blame. I know what I'm talking about (the psysiologlot continues).- I hear the beer alibi" dally. Dr. Brady, believe me, a quart of beer a day is not heavy drink ing and it does not shorten life. But I shall tell you what your statement does do (that is, the statement in this column that a working man who eats nothing at breakfast but drinks a quart of beer and goes to work on that alone is well on the way to, if not already affected by physical degeneration). Every hypercriti cal wife who has a husband who drinks some beer has Dr. Brady thrown at his head until he goes out and gets drunk to escape you and his wife. Oh, come, now. Doctor, I refer to you as an authority on physi ology and especially on the ef fects of alcohol, but your psy chology. It rhymes with drinks. If the Individual who purports 10 De a man goes out and gets drunk on any such pretext as DRIVE MEN TO DRINK are unnecessary for anybody and rather injurious for every body who indulges in them. But go on, Doctor. I know you have something sensible to suggest. Like you, I deplore the exces sive use of alcohol- Excuse me again, Professor, I not only deplore the excessive use, I deplore any use at all of any kind of alcoholic beverage or liquor except as prescribed in good faith by one s physician and believe, again like you that it constitutes one of the major public, health problems of today. But why, of all beverages, pick on beer? ' If we could get the American drinker to use nothing stronger than beer, I think the problem of alcoholism would become. unim portant. It is the high concen tration, of alcohol in distilled spirits that gives the excessive drinker the "kick" he seeks and the alcoholic degeneration he eventually develops. Like the late Dr. Yandell Henderson, I think that anything that tends to lower the concentration of alco hol, in alcoholic beverages is a step toward ameliorating alco holism. There you, have something. Doctor. But how can we get the American drinker to do that? that, I should say the poor so-and-so must have been well along on his way to degeneration and early death before his wife ever discovered that I maintain alcoholic beverages and liquors TRUCKS FOR RENT Drtv YoorMif.

AMOUNT SPENT ON BEER AMAZES BRITISH TOWN Great Wyrley, Staffordshire, Eng. (U.R) Staggered by statis tics and not by their drinking, the 4,000 residents of this little mining village have learned that 000 annually on beer. The men blame it on the women, saying the women are the heavy drinkers and that ac tually the village as a whole is abstemious. But the receipts of the town's two pubs prove the 25,000 expenditure.' Only 7 per cent of civilian au tomobiles in service now are less than three years old, 33 per cent are 7 to 10 years old and 25 per cent more than 10 years old. S. M.
