ed from poison packages, because
it restricts the sale of drugs.
Wiley minced no words, in his
arraignment of the manufactur-
ers. 'Dopers" was the way he
stigmatized them in the begin
ming of his speech. A represen-
tative of the National Wholesale
Drug Association objected to
this frankness.
my voice is going to be
heard,'' angrily answered Wiley.
That is just what they are, dop-
ers."
He told the board that the best
piece OF work 1t could do tor the
people would be to adopt the pro-
posed new regulations for the
sale of poisonous drugs, which
provide for keeping a record of
them from their importation or
manufacture until finally used.
"Who are you representing
here?" asked a member of the
drug, association, who appeared
resentful that a private individu-
al should have a say in the pro-
ceedings.
