Wisconsin Student Finds Decreased
Intemperance Among Poor Families
Prohibition has brought about a
marked decrease in intemperance
among dependent families.
That is the conclusion given in a
thesis submitted recently by Helen
M. Voorhees of New York City as
part of the requirement for the mas
ter of arts degree at the University
of Wisconsin.
Miss Voorhees studied more than
1,000 case records in the files of the
Madison Public Welfare association
for the years 1916 and 1924, and
analyzed the facts there recorded by
social workers. The years 1916 and
1924 were chosen because they were
about equidistant from the time when
the national experiment in prohibi
tion began 1920.
In 1916, Miss Voorhees found, of
507 dependent families assisted by
the association, 113 owed their plight
in some degree to drinking by one or
more members of the family. In 1924
but 20 of 512 cases on the records
of the association needed help be
cause, among other, reasons, of in
temperance. Investigation in Percentage
Translated into percentages, her
investigation showed that 22.3 per
cent of dependent Madison families
in 1916 were needy partly or wholly
because of drink, while in 1924, only
3.9 per cent of dependent families
were influenced by liquor.
Miss Voorhees also explored the re
lations between various factors, for
example, the correlation of drinking
with unemployment, with physical
disability, and the connection befJ
tween physical disability and adult
mental deficiency.
Miss Voorhees stated her conclus
ions in part as follows:
"From this study of over 1,000
dependent families influenced by in
temperance there are a few facts
which stand out clearly, unclouded by
any other issues.
The University of Nebraska dairy
products judging team took sixth
place in competition with ten. other
teams, and the senior dairy cattle
team placed fifteenth with twenty
four competing teams at the National
Dairy show held in Indianapolis.

ment of English spoke on "Western

lege. The songs were illustrated at

Decree.se Undisputed
"In the first place, there is the
undisputed fact that there has beep
a marked decrease of intemperance
between the years 1916 and 1924
in the families-which stand in need
of assistance. In the former year
more than one-fifth of the case load
families of the Public Welfare asso
ciation suffered from drink; in the
latter year less than one-twelfth were
so afflicted.
"The old condition of the pre-pro-hibition
days when the family bread
winner took his weekly pay envelope
to the corner saloon to repay the
debt of the past week and to begin
a new account, leaving all too little
to take home for the support of his
wife and children is not now existent.
So much good can be credited to pro
hibition: evidently the average bread
winner today, even though he does
not forswear alcoholic drink has
enough of his earnings left with
which to support his family. At least
there is comparatively little need to
ask for help.
Two Other Factors
"There are, however, two other
facts to be noted. Both unemploy
ment and physical disability are
greater factors than formerly in the
families affected by drink. The un
employment cannot be credited en
tirely to intemperance, for conditions
in 1924 were not so prosperous as in
1916, when work was plentiful. Em
ployers can probably find enough
non-drinking working men now to fill
their places; and are less likely to
employ those who are known to be
intemperate. Hence the little work
that the present day poor drinking
man has is likely to be taken away
from him. It is this fact doubtless
which accounts also for the greater
prevalence of debt in the drink-affected
families."

a vaudeville manager
for "faculty adviser"?
NOBODY understands the principle of a bal
anced program better than the manager of a
vauderiile house. .
That's a thought to you men now making out
your study programs. Balance the chernistry
with English literature; balance your calculus
with economics.
It all gets down to the fact that in industry
today, electrical communication included, you
will find men well grounded in their specialty but
broad in human sympathies men of the "all
around" type who can shoulder big responsibility
in a big organization.
