Since the repeal of prohibition, the ma jority of the people of this na tion have made it clear that they wish alcoholic beverages to be available for social pur poses. At the same time, the general acceptance of the use of alcohol in moderation has led to a relaxing of vigilance to ward the health problems in volved. TWO PROBLEMS There are two problems which , must be considered. The first is the effect of heavy drinking upon organic tissue, the circu latory system, and proper nu trition. It is sufficient to note here that cirrhosis of the liver occurs about eight times as often among alcoholics as among non-alcoholics. The second problem is that alcohol is a systemic poison to which different people have different physical reactions. Some people are able to pass off the toxic residues from al coholic beverages more readfly than others. For a large minor ity of the population, the pbi- sons remain in the body as an irritant, setting up a compelling urge for the temporary anes thetic effect of more alcohol. For such persons, alcohol Is a neuro-physiologica) addiction, comparable to the addiction caused by such dangerous drugs as heroin and cocaine. The addict needs increasing amounts of the poison to pro vide temporary relief from the horrible symptoms of with drawal. Yet even one drink may be the trigger /that starts the addict off on a binge. SUSCEPTIBILITY At least 20 to 30% of the population does not drink at all. However, in terms of physical susceptibility, doctors estimate that for some 80% of the adult population in the United States, alcohol, if consumed under or dinary circumstances, w’ould serve as a mild, non-addictive tranquilizer. The remaining 20% are physically addictive- prone in varying degrees, due to deficiencies in body chemis- y. However, only about 6% are classifiable as heavy drink ers. most of whom suffer from a neuro-physiological addiction to alcohol. This 6% Is continually ex posed to the health hazards ol excessive alcohol, as well ns the costly social toll that drunk enness exacts. However, that small percentage*does not ex pose the dimensions of the problem. This 6% of the population consumes 50% of the annual $15 billion output of the alco holic beverage industry. Thus we have a powerful industry whose major source of income comes from exploiting the af fliction of sick people. Despite the impression nur tured by the liquor industry that liquor is a socially-accept- able adjunct to modern living, and that alcoholism is a minor problem, the fact remains that alcohol manufacturers profit from addiction. UNCRITICAL ACCEPTANCE For this reason, the industry maintains an enormous adver tising and public relations pro gram to encourage an uncriti cal acceptance of alcohol and its consequences. In 1966, the five major distilling companies alone spent $154 million on liquor advertising. The effect of such Intensive campaigns misleads people who do not understand alcoholic ad diction to think that alcoholic consumption can be regulated by Willpower alone. Those who are addictive-prone may be led Into addiction without realizing It Those who refuse all alcohol for health or religious reasons find their position criticized ir rationally. To alert people that they ought to inquire further into these dangers, therefore, liquor drinkers should be of ficially cautioned that consump tion may lead to health hazards or addiction* w- i Your mOAMRi r 111 h p Program Today — Saturday put on a pretty face .

Dick Van Dyke and Debbie Reynolds Shows: 3:15 Afternoon — Night 7:00 and 9:00 Does YOUR mirror reflect the radiant look of good health? If so, your complexion has a moist, fine-textured look. Obeying Mother Nature’s rules of drinking plenty of water, get ting adequate rest and breathing good fresh air is important. However, if you are adhering to these good health factors and are still disappointed in your complexion, perhaps the fault lies in improper cleansing of your face. Proper cleansing is of the utmost importance, it pre pares the skin for the mois turizer and make-up or night cream. If the complexion is not thoroughly clean, your night cream will not be effec tive because it will be applied to clogged pores. When make up is applied to a face which is not scrupulously clean, it lacks the rpor nin k*f resh loo * c and distorts make-up tones. Today’s fashions are geared to the “girlon-the-go.” Let me help you achieve a “girl-on-the- glow” complexion. It’s as easy as counting to five! 1. Apply Fashion Two Twenty Cleansing Cream to your fore head, chin, nose and cheeks. Massage this creamy liquid into your skin with gentle up ward and outward movemente. 2. Moisten fingertips and con tinue to massage cream into the skin. Be sure to raise el bows to shoulder height. This will give you greater leverage and will make your massage more effective. 3. Massage your throat with your entire hand, (nipping It to fit around throat and chin. 4. Begin at the center of tfte forehead and massage, draw ing your fingers toward the temple. 5. Apply a moist face cloth to the complexion and rtaea off cleansing cream, uahn and outward massage stroke. Rinse cloth several times un til water rinses clear and com plexion is sparkly clean. Yes, it’s really that simple! Let me’ remind you to always use upward and outward mas sage strokes. Circular or down ward strokes stretch the skin. However, avoid massaging the under-eye area. This is extreme* ly delicate tissue and must be pampered by gently patting. You’ll be pleased with your vital, new look. Enjoy your family, friends and business as sociates. Think pleasant thoughts and your “inner glow” will be as luminous as your itaan oomplexUmi \. f *r . t V • I *
