NUMBOIS STREETS «g

Would Eliminate "Half" Streets and the Avenues North and South.

The board of works members announced Friday morning that they had been asked by several citizens to rename and revise all city streets running north and south.

The board said the plan suggested was to start at First street and name each street numerically in succession. This plan, the board said, would make the present Seventh street Eighth street, Center street becoming Seventh street. This would eliminate Ninth and One-half, Tenth and One-half, Thirteenth and One-half, and. Fourteenth and One-half street. The board members said, however, the streets would probably be left as they are, only the names of the halt street® to be changed.

Famous Alienist Denies That liquor Causes Most of Insanity

After listening to the ordinary "dry" harangue, the individual, unless he be of a questioning turn of mind, is quite likely to reach the conclusion that prohibition is a speedy and certain method of emptying the nation's alms houses, prisons and insane asylums. "Dry" orators are want to ascribe^ at least ninety per cent of air social ills to the sale of alcoholic beverages. On the other hand, those in position to knowfrom personal experience, the conditions which cause crime, poverty and insanity, do not subscribe to the popular "dry" theories. These are the specialists and scientists.who deal daily with crime p:, and insanity and who are constantly and earnestly searching for the cause and cure for these social afflictions.

One of these scientists is Dr. Ralph Reed, a famous alienist.., and neurologist of Cincinnati. Dr. Keedprobably has nothing J- /J:1 but professional interest in the prohibition agitation. Constant f# and unrefuted assertions by the "dry" agitators have caused him, however, to warn his fellow-physicians of the falsity of the prohibition arguments. This warning he gave a recent issue ol the Lancet-Clinic, a medical journal. Dr. Reed's article, in part, follows: "In glancing through the morning's paper I notethe familiar statement of an advocate of prohibition. It runs something like this: 'Go with me through the wards of the hospitals and insane asylums, and observe on every hand the ravages of alcohol.' K felt that I should have liked to have said to that individual: ,'Very well, let us go we will first visit the asylums.' I have a feeling that he would have plead a previous engagement. He has probably never seen the inside of an asylum and has no desire.to 6ee one. "My experience with an intimate contact with and study of the cases admitted to a large insane asylum and the eame con-, tact and study of the cases admitted to a large sanitarium devoted in no small degree to the treatment tof alcoholism itself, convinced me a number of years ago that^alcohol, in so far as it may be said to be an essential cause of mental disease, iff almost a negligible factor. My private practice in later years has rather tended to strengthen this conclusion.. "'Suppose we take the four great groups of insanity that go to make up the great majority of our chronically insane. They are, first, dementia precox, which, as its name implies, is a disease attacking the young and usually resulting in a chronic and hopeless dementia. Its rsal cause is, as every alienist knows, absolutely unknown. Next we have what is called manic-depressive insanity, which includes many of the various manias and melancholias so common in asylum wards. This disease is curable but shows a tendency to return. Its causevfc unknown, but heredity is supposed to figure largely. Next we have paranoia, a chr(onic, incurable disease manifested by deN lusions of persecution, ita cause being unknown. Next comes paresis, a disease the essential cause of which is known and it is not alcohol.

"Over and above these large groups of mental disease there are a number of minor forms of insanity that account for alarge number of our insane. Many of these are the results of exhaustion, great mental stress or some chronic physical disease producing certain auto-intoxications. Finally, we have a relatively small number that are the result of alcohol. "Back of prolonged and excessive consumption of alcoholic liquors there must be a degree of mental unbalance or stress that might have resulted iij some form of mental disease even if individual had never drunk a drop. It is these important facts that every alienist who has thought seriously on the question of drink must take into consideration, and in fact they ao. This is the reason we do not find our asylum superintendents stumping the country for prohibition. They realize that there is very much more to the question of insanity and its control than thd bolition of alcohol. "I have purposely omitted all discussion of the hereditary influence of chronic alcoholism. The data are necessarily loo inadequate. All statistics^purporting to show hereditary influeence are inadequate. My results clearly show, however, that a 6erious fallacy may enter. Alcoholism per se, in my opinion, is never inherited. To admit that it might be is to cast ^side all the wealth of scientific evidence we possess tending tb show that acquired characters can never be passed on from parent to child. What may be inherited, however, is the neurotic taint. Hence, the same neurotic or psychic instability which made the father a chronic alcoholic may be revealed in the daughter as a susceptibility to hysteria, or in the son as an epilepsy. Is is strange that this has not been ipore generally recognized. If it had beM we would not meet with absurd statements to the effect that alcoholism in^ the parent produces epilepsy or insanity in the offspring. It is not the alcoholism that is lnnerited but the neurotic strain that produced the alcoholism. "The case of fhe prohibitionists and their ideas with reg&rd to drink and insanity may be paralleled as follows: Suppose I should be asked to give a reason for suicide, and in reply should state whereas a certain proportion of all those committingsilttide hang themselves or shoot themselves, therefore an imponant cause of siucide was the unrestricted manufacture and safe of revolvers and rope, it would be instantly recognized that my reply was silly and absurd. Because, while it is clear that If nb one had access to a revolver or a rope, no one could commit suicide by hanging or shooting, yet there is nothing to show that if the legislature should abolish the manufacture and sale of revolvers and rope suicides would by that fact be reduced. W« all know that the cause of suicide lies deeper than that.

With respect to alcohol the case is similar. To drink one's self crazy is one way of going crazy. Alcohol constitutes a secondary cause of a certain proportion of mental cases, but saying that and stopping there is to fail to approach one step nearer to the real and fundamental causes of insanity."
