War’s return to cities cuts women drinkers says court psyc?
Dr David Rotman head of Chicago Municipal Court Psychiatric Institute predicts fewer women drinkers as servicemen come home. He notes many young women sought romance and high paying war jobs in Chicago and other cities, but many returned home or faced emotional strain. He cites 49 percent of alcoholic cases referred to the institute being women, up from 16 percent a decade earlier.
