ALCOHOL AND THE MACHINE AGE
I “Ieur Iaers Before Car Crab. Driver, ll. Held Responsible.”
Headlines such as this bring sharply before our minds the rela- tiou of alcohol to the machine age. We have seen in previous luaons how alcohol dulls the brain. re- duces the power of Judgment, and impairs self-criticism. It is only natural to suppose that when an intoxicated person is put in charge of a powerful machine. the ef- fects of his handicap ara multiplied many times, and ha becomes fer more dangerous to himself and to others. The accelerated tempo and the greater power of the machine increase many times the likelihood of accident through ai- cohol. This is true of all machines, from the lathe and drill press of the mechanic's bench to the giant airliner which soars through the skies. Liquor and machinery are poor companions. Let us think particularly of the automobile in this lesson, however. as it is among the commonest of machines, and figures more prominently in our thinking about alcohol.
Experience
The dangers inherent in the drinking of alcoholic beverages by those in charge of machines are revealed many times weekly by reports of accidents. The follow- ing items, selected from the daily press, serve to bear out this claim.
" ‘You were so drunk you couldn't remember,‘ a Magistrate told two boys, aged 2O and. l9. Their car struck the curb four times in a short distance. Drove along highway 70-80 miles per hour. Struck approaching car and forced it into the ditch. Drunk driven carfiore down length of fence and was wrecked. The two boys were unconscious and had to be carried out of the car. ‘Both had been drinking." said the police officer."
“O-"ii Man was con- victed ou s charge of careless driving. The case arose from a collision just after midnight. Driv- er ~of the other car went to hos- pital with head abrasions, lacerat- ed hand and a shoulder injury. Accused admitted drinking six or seven pints of beer about seven hours before the accident. The two men in the other car had drunk a pint of beer each before leaving for home."
You can duplicate items such as
every week. The statistical find- ings based upon the accumulated records of such experience prove beyond question that alcohol and machinery do not mix. Take a typical year, i943, in the United States, our southern neighbour, In that year there were 800.000 non- fatal accidents. and 23,400 deaths in traffic. The total cost to the nation of this one year's accidents was seven hundred million dol- lars. Alcoholic intoxication was a major cause of these accidents. 137, of the drivers involved “had been drinking", 14% of the pedes- trians "hnd- been drinking", and one out of every five accidents in- volved drinklngl ,
In four typical American cities
in the same year, it was discover- ed thaf. one half of the drivers in- volved in accidents -had been drinking, and one-third had enough alcohol in their s stems to be de- finitely “under tye lnfluence".. In 1940, fatal accidents among Am- erican drinking drivers were twice as frequent as among the general population. And here in Canada, conditions are fast approximating those in the U.S. One government official claims that 45% of all seri- ous highway accidents in Ontario are due to drinking! In fact, statistics show that a drinking driver is fifty-five times more likely to have an accident than the abstalnerl No wonder thin Professor Joslyn Rogers. of the University of Toronto, makes the statement, "Drunken driving has succeeded war as the BMW" scourge of modern times."
Science What experience proves. science explains. Alcohol gives the driv-
er a false sense of confidence. It dulls his caution, and puts him in the mood to _"take a chance," which he would not take if he were completely sober. and which can eaally lead to disaster on the road. Alcohol impairs the work- lug of the “middle brain". w that the messages which l0 b")! "id forth from the brain to the sense organs and muscles become con- fused. For this reason. the driv- er cennot judge protifll! u" ‘m’ -tsnce between his car and other cars, or pedestrians, ahead of him. With some drivers. alcohol causes color blindness, so that it is dlf» fieult to obey traffic lights pro- perly. Alcohol restricts the field of vision. so that the drinking driver cannot see until later than normally the cars which approach from the right or left at an inter- section. Alcohol may prevent the eyes from focussinl rllhtl! to- gether. so that the driver lees double. and is not lure which of the two objects he sees is the real one! How devastating this would be in a modern traffic tangle can
be left i0 your own imagination!
Then, too, alcohol interferes with what we call reaction time, that is. the time it takes a person to
give the proper response to an! eenpution. The testing of reaction
time has been the lubltct of many

these from your own newspaper-
spend to a Ill!!!- lueh as a light flashing. La cue-fifth of a second, but when a person has been drink- ing, he takes longer to respond. His reaction time is slowed down 6 per cent an hour after drinking 1% glusas of whiskey. 12% af- terfliglalseaandflfiafteriti glasses. A change of 34% is eon- slderabla. It means, for example. that if a car were travelling at 50 miles an hour, it would take about l7 feet more road space to bring it to a atop. That 1'! feet might make all the differmce between life and death, as you can readily imagine. Alcohol in the brain is the enemy of safe driving. That is why raihroadl, bus companies, and air lines lilt "drinking on or before duty" as a very serious ef- fense, often punishable by instant dismissal.
Not only does experience prove and science explain the great risk involved in drinking before con- trolling a machine, but drinkers. brewers. and. distillers admit itl "In one city on Christmas Day, four hundred car owners hired garage mechanics to drive their cars for them. They deliberately unfitted themselves to drive their own cars, and took safety precau- tions in advance." The brewers and dlstlllers. alarmed at the pos- sibility of a public reaction against the growing number of drunk- driving fatalities, are doing their utmost, by propaganda and ad- vertising. to put across the mes- sage, "If you drive, don't drink. If you drink, don't drive."
This is one issue, then, upon which there is no difference of opinion. Drinking and driving do not mix. How much better it is to abstain entirely from the use of a substance which, by dulling the sense of the one in control, can render any motor car an in- strument of sudden death!

LESSON FOUR. (Junior)
A MANUAL I03 A. KING
By MARY I. MILNE
If you have decided to be a doctor when you grow up, you want to be a good doctor. If you become an engineer. then you want to be a good engineer. You know, too, that your mother wants you to be just as good a doctor or engineer as you can possibly be. Mothers are like that. and a1- Ways have been.
In the Bible we read of a mother of long ego, whose son, Lemuel, became king of a coun- try called Massa. in Arabia. Lemuel whose name means "dedicated t0 God," was a handsome and clever young man. Everybody liked hirn and showered him with gifts and favours. He could choose his friends wherever he wished. The Bible does not tell us much about him, except that his mother was a very wise mother. She had taught him from his boyhood to be care- ful about the sort of people he made friends with. She wanted him to choose good friends. who did not drink wine. Then it would be easier for Lemuel to follow his mother's advice. and never. to drink liquor himself.
Lemuel had something better than advice from his mother. how- ever. She set him the example she wanted him to follow. She had prmnised God that she would not touch strong drink. She called Lemuel, "the son of my vows", meaning that she hoped he would promise God the same things.
“It is not for kings. O Lemuel," his mother continued. "it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes strong drink, lest they drink and forget the law and per- var-t the judgment of any of the afflicted." If a king spends his time in drinking, he will certainly become careless in looking after the affairs of state. and may easily be unfair in dealing with his people. The king should always care about the welfare of even the
"poorest and least important sub-
ject. and should speak out for the rights of those who can't speak for themselves. “Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to destruc- tion. Open thy mouth. judge rlghteously and plead t“ "" " of the poor and needy."
"You cant’ be too careful." his mother warned Lemuel. "More people are drowned in the wine- cup than in the ocean."
What is important for kings, is Important for you. too. For you are a king!
You are king over

You cannot fudge properly be- tween right and wrong. between good and bad unless your mind is clear. It takes only a very little beer or wine to fog up the brain of the drinker. That ll the first thing that happens. because al- cohol gets into the blood vuy soon after lt is swallowed and is carried by the blood to the brain.
