EFFECTS OF ALCOHOL
Sir-It was very interesting and informative to hear and later read Dr. Turbott’s health broadcast concerning alchohol. The considerable amount of new knowledge about alcohol, as about other things, that scientific investigation has brought to light in the last 25 years should be brought to the knowledge of the public and the medium of the wireless is orie way in which this can
be done. There is no doubt that very few people are aware of the scientific results of the consumption of alcohol, its action as a narcotic depressant, and its particular importance these days when considering the incidence of liquor in road accidents, It is good to see that the dissemination of this information, for many years done only by temperance societies, has now been taken up on a national scale.
