Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Economic Aspects of the Liquor Problem
The genesis of the Committee of Fifty and the earlier history of its work were sketched in the preface to the report published in 1897 by the Legislative sub-com mittee. Since that time but few changes have taken place in the membership of the Committee, and its work has been steadily prosecuted along the lines then indicated. Anew sub-committee has been appointed to study the substitutes for saloons in large cities. The Physiological sub-committee has made steady progress with its investigations, several of which have been printed in scientific journals, and it is hoped that before long a general summary of the results obtained may be presented to the public in book form. The present volume contains the investigations of the Eco nomic sub-committee, and is the second in the series of official publications of the Committee of Fifty.
