DR.. Mctter's Views.

DR.. Motter was asked by a reporter
for The Times to explain briefly the
merits of the proposed bill.
THE bill" he replied, places ..Ie
work of the pharmaceutical examiners
on much the same basis as IS that Of
the several boards of medical exam
iners. The scheme already ;naugurated
"A board OF supervisors on which the
general public is represented by two
/. laymen-has proved so effective in cen
tralizing and harmonizing the work OF
these boards that IL is here extended.
Among the most important features
Of the bill are the provisions with ref
erence TO the sale or narcotics and poi
sons. The appalling increase in the use
1 OF narcotic drugs and the frequent fatal
cases of poisoning, due to ignorance and
/ carelessness in binding potent rene

restrictions upon the sale OF these sub

request for this Department to reduce
its expenditures to within $224,00 for
the period of twelve months.
After due deliberation, the Board ex-
pressed themselves as unwilling to be
responsible for the efficient running Of

was represented by an accompanying
schedule Your return of said schedule,
with instructions that the cut must
come within the sum of s224.000. is
made possible, only by the cutting out
of the Kalaupapa store which is an
item of s2S, 900 for twelve months, which
sum is. charged up against this De-
partment, and the proceeds of the store
do not revert to the Treasury, as a |
credit in favor of the Board OF Health, |
but as a government realization, there |

carry if due credit was given. The |
store is not run as money maker for /
the government; charge of 5 per |
cent on the cost of goods is all that is /
asked for. to pay expense of freight
and handling.
The Board would suggest some other
