W. Woodcock Woolcock has his own agency, created for the purpose of digging down to original sources of informa- tion, and has, he says, no intention of accepting the statistics of organizations sponisoring or opposing the dry laws. Within the bureau is a research division, the primary function of which is to obtain trustworthy data on the per capita cgnsumption of intoxicating liquor throughout the nation. He plans to develop agency to the highest possible point of efficiency. Will Release Data _From it will come regular reports on liquor consumption and this, Woodcock says. will show the Suc- cess or failure of his campaign against illicit alcohol. He plans to make the reports public whether favorable or unfayorable, at regular intervals. In some respects, the work of the research division will of the Wickersham Law ment commission. and an arrange- ment is being perfected whereby the two will work in close coopera- tion. Speaking of statistics already | available, Woodcock said that while they are extensive, they are, for the most part, the output of interested organizations. He was emphatic in asserting the bureau will not make use of any data received in this way. It the prohibition bureau is to command respect, he said, be independent and get from original sources. as already outlined by of prohibition are indices, of arrests for drunkenness, deaths from cirr- hosis of the liver and consumption of corn sugar, hops and other com- its i modities which go into the manu- | facture of liquor.
