And up to 30 per cent of a big city police force budget goes just for pro- cessing drunks. Questionnaires sent to a represent- ative group of metropolitan chiefs of police (in cities over 100,000) reveal a fantastic loss of police time and money for arresting, booking and jail- ing intoxicated persons. Not included in the responses were estimates of court costs for prosecu- tion or. day-to-day jail expenses for the "boarders." Here are some repre- sentative "bills": - ' In Tacoma, Washington, 30 per cent or $467,064 out of the police budget of $1,623,616 goes to the processing of intoxicated persons. Sixty per cent of all arrests involve persons who are drunk, drinking or intoxicated. Ap- proximately 3,000 police force hours are consumed each week handling drinkers. Sy In Miama, Florida, 20 pei cent or $800,800, of the $4,004,000 police bud- get is consumed handing intoxicated persons. An estimated 1,000 police hours each week are lost handling these arrests. ? In Syracuse, New York, the cost to taxpayers is about 15 per cent of the total police budget or $312,779-annual- ly, and 670 hours each week. In Sacramento, California, where 80 per cent of all arrests involve in- toxicated persons, 11 per cent of the budget ($194,150) is spent processing tipplers. : ; In Cleveland, Ohio, an estimated $449,392 is spent each year handling intoxicated citizens, Wilmington, Delaware, has the lowest percentage of arrests involving drinkers, 19 per cent, ard the lowest bill, 1 per cent of the budget, or $18,503. Loss of money is not the only factor. Time consumed in handling intoxicated citizens means time lost to other forms of police protection. The Onondaga Committee on Al- coholism in New York State found 76 per cent. of the inmates at Onondago Penitentiary were alcoholics. The committee reported that 86 per cent of the arrests in Syracuse, N.Y., during 1966, were for public intoxication. N.Y. Welfare Commission Gives Estimates of Cost : Ten thousand families "with depen- dent children here require relief care becausé of alcoholic fathers, Welfare Commissioner Henry L. McCarthy said yesterday, according to the New York Times, -- In an interview on the Columbia Broadcasting System's television pro- gram, "Eye on New York," Mr. Mec- Carty said the ten thousand families cost the city about $40,000,000 a year for food and shelter because the alco- holic wound up either in prison or in a mental institution or died prema- turely. 'Alcoholism," he said, "is a major contributing cause to the -city's ex- panding public welfare costs. "Anything that costs this much," he added, 'should be attacked through every source at our command, includ- ing research, treatment and more Fed- eral and State aid." + . He said that 300,000 alcoholics were now in the city and that, women alco- holics numbered one out of every five as compared with a previous ratio of one in 25. : Alcoholism Heads Death Rate in Paris Hospitals .THE PENTECOSTAL EVANGEL. More people die in Paris hospitals of alcoholism than any other ailment, a recent article in the United Brethren magazine reports. A survey, made by an official of the Hotel Dieu Medical Clinic, showed that 27 per cent of deaths in Paris hospitals were due "directly" to alcoholism. This was three times as many. deaths as were attributed to cancer. Alcohol produces the same results wherever it is used. The Citizens League. (Paid advertisement) iT Sh life in Africa.
