MEDICINE VENDORS
OUT OF BUSINESS

A bill which puts itinerant medicine
vendors practically out Of business was
introduced in the senate yesterday by
Senator Benner Y. Smith. The bill pro-
vidcs that a medicine vendor must pay
SIOO a month license fee, the license To
be obtained from the state board Of pl1aT-
macy. With the application for license
the vendor must send samples Of the ar
ticles offered for sale, which are TO be
examined and analysed by the state board
of pharmacy to determine whether or not
the articles are harmful - whether or
not the advertising ma labels rep
resent the true facts ig the ar
ticles offered for sale. The license COW
ers only one person and one vehicle.
The purpose of the bill is to protect the
public from the tempting misrepTeSenta-
tons of the itinerant medicine vendor,
who often sells harmful drugs, most of
which do not fill the purposes set forth
in the advertising matter and labels The
license fee fixed by the bill is Of itself
practically prohibitlve and the fact that
the licenses are to De granted by the
state board Of pharmacy, only after a
careful examination of the articles Of
fered for sale. is hardly an inducement
for the medicine peddlers to come into the
state.
The bill went to the committee on pub
lie health.
