Statistics as to the Relation of Intemperance to Pauperism In European Countries European statistics as to tho relat- ion of intemperance to pauperism are I less abundant than might bo sup- posed ¬ largely perhaps because it Is only in recent years that tho temper anco movement has gained a popular hearing In most communities there The following official figures complied from some of the larger centers of population however reveal In strik ¬ ing manner the evil Influence of alco- hol upon social conditions through ¬ out parts of the German empire and elsewhere where drinking customs have long prevailed In tho great Charity hospital of Ber lin Dr Slemerllng reports from 433 to 619 per cent of alcoholics among all the patients admitted In two sue ¬ cessive years Dr Gorge Kcfcrsto of Lunoburga cites statistics of 60 years standing of the city of Osnabruck where 56 per cent of all paupers were de- clared to owe their condition directly to drink lie cites also the reports of the German labor colonies showing that a of 44539 men admitted in the period j 18821891 no fewer than 77 per- cent owed their condition directly or Indirectly to alcohol i and he quotes with approval tho declaration of Grumbrecht a member of tho Gem man parliament to tho effect that whoever has watched attentively for a term of years the work of applied charity in a fairly large city cannot escape tho conviction that nine cases of pauperism In every ten must as ¬ sociate their condition with the use and abuse of Intoxicants An estimate published in a period ¬ foal devoted to the Charities of lIam ¬ burg ascribes 50 per cent of the pau¬ perism of that city In the year 1903 to IntemperanceNor estimates ascribing from onethird to one hait of the rec ognized poverty of Germany to the effects of alcohol vary greatly from the estimates made for England by British investigators and time careful statistics compiled for America by the Committee of Fifty Such correspond ¬ ences cannot well bo accidental They give secure warrant for the belief that at least onethird of all tho rec ¬ ognized pauperism in tho most highly civilized communities of Christen ¬ dom results from bodily and men tat inefficiency due to alcoholic In ¬ dulgenceA correspondence of testi ¬ mony shows that the same causo is responsible for the mental overthrow of fully onefourth of all tho unfor- tunates who are sent

DRINK AND SOCIAL CONDITIONS
Some Statistics as to the Relation ofIntemperance to Pauperism In
European Countries
European statistics as to tho relat-ion of intemperance to pauperism are
Iless abundant than might bo sup-
posed¬
largely perhaps because it Isonly in recent years that tho temperanco movement has gained a popularhearing In most communities thereThe following official figures compliedfrom some of the larger centers ofpopulation however reveal In strik ¬
ing manner the evil Influence of alco-hol upon social conditions through¬
out parts of the German empire andelsewhere where drinking customshave long prevailed
In tho great Charity hospital of Berlin Dr Slemerllng reports from 433to 619 per cent of alcoholics amongall the patients admitted In two sue ¬
cessive yearsDr Gorge Kcfcrsto of Lunoburga
cites statistics of 60 years standingof the city of Osnabruck where 56per cent of all paupers were de-clared to owe their condition directlyto drink
lie cites also the reports of theGerman labor colonies showing that aof 44539 men admitted in the period j
18821891 no fewer than 77 per-
cent owed their condition directlyor Indirectly to alcohol i and he quoteswith approval tho declaration ofGrumbrecht a member of tho Gemman parliament to tho effect thatwhoever has watched attentively fora term of years the work of appliedcharity in a fairly large city cannotescape tho conviction that nine casesof pauperism In every ten must as ¬
sociate their condition with the useand abuse of Intoxicants
An estimate published in a period ¬
foal devoted to the Charities of lIam ¬
burg ascribes 50 per cent of the pau¬
perism of that city In the year 1903to IntemperanceNor
estimates ascribingfrom onethird to one hait of the recognized poverty of Germany to theeffects of alcohol vary greatly fromthe estimates made for England byBritish investigators and time carefulstatistics compiled for America by theCommittee of Fifty Such correspond ¬
ences cannot well bo accidental Theygive secure warrant for the beliefthat at least onethird of all tho rec ¬
ognized pauperism in tho most highlycivilized communities of Christen ¬
dom results from bodily and mentat inefficiency due to alcoholic In ¬
dulgenceA correspondence of testi ¬
mony shows that the same causo isresponsible for the mental overthrowof fully onefourth of all tho unfor-tunates who are sent to asylums forthe insane for the misfortunes of twofifths of neglected or abandoned children and for the moral delinquenciesof at least haf of tho convicts inprisons and of not less than fourfifthsworkhouses
