DROP IN CRIME LAID TO REPEAL BY GOV, M’NUTT Drunkenness and Drunken Driving Have Diminished, Says Executive. Antl-prohibitionists took comfort. today in statistics cited yesterday by Gov. McNutt in his weekly radio address which pointed to great social gains and to improvement in the state’s financial status since repeal and the enactment of the 1933 and 1935 liquor control laws. Crime, drunkenness and drunken driving have diminished sharply, the Governor said, and enforcement of the liquor law has the support of the people in general, Gov. McNutt said: “Crime of all kinds dropped from 97,658 criminal charges in 1931, a prohibition year, to 54.150 in 1934. the first full year of repeal,” he stated. “The decrease in crime rate was noticeable in 1933 with only eight months' operation of the 1933 act. when the total criminal charges amounted to 70.775 as compared to 78.531 in 1932, the last full year of prohibition. • “In 1925, when the state was operating under the Wright ‘bone dry’ law, when Federal courts had been converted into police courts, the percentaage of liquor law violation to the total crime list was 42 per cent.” Revenues Aid Schools “During the period from March 1. 1935, when the act became effective, to Nov. 15, a total of $3,163560.98 was distributed to cities, towns and counties, to the school units and to the general fund from permits and excise taxes,” he said. “There is every reason to believe, judging from the statistics end the actual working of the act, that in communities where the sentiment is dry—protected as these communities are by the local option feature of the law—there is general satisfaction with the act. “This satisfaction is prompted by the incontrovertible fact of a decrease in crime and a decrease in liquor law violations. And, at the same time, unless teir local city councils decree otherwise, theirs is a dry community. “In those communities where the people generally have so-called ‘wet.’ sentiment, they may obtain their liquor in a legal manner and under circumstances which represent a great advancement over the earlier concepts of control of alcoholic beverages. Strict Control Held Solution “Whether the state is wet or dry, the people who desire it will obtain their liquor. In this connection there has been some criticism that permits have been issued in certain none-too-reputable sections of the larger cities, and this is where the social problem enters the picture. Experience has proved that this class will obtain liquor. It is the opinion of the State Alcoholic Beverages Commission that strict control will prove far better than unlicensed operation in such localities. “The entire administration of the law by the commission, both in the issuance of permits and in the enforcement division, has been and will continue to be nonpartisan and without, favoritism.”
