Alcohol not boosting mental illness says Athens State hospital chief
Dr. John H. Berry, superintendent of the Athens State hospital, rejects Columbus newspaper claims linking prohibition to higher mental illness. He cites figures showing a long decline in admissions due to alcohol since 1918 and especially after 1920, noting few cases of alcoholic psychosis during 1921 to 1928 and clarifying that bootlegger admissions were rare. He says hospitals nationwide were asked for similar data and that reliable figures show no rise in alcohol related mental disease.
