ONE HUNDRED AND ELEVEN DOCTORS SPEAK.

We positively condemn the beverage use of alcoholic liquors, including beer and wine, because, by their effect on the germ plasm, they curse the unborn child; because even their moderate use has been proved to reduce the efficiency of the user; and because in multitudes of cases the continued use of alcohol in moderation proves to be impossible.”
