convinced that 70 per cent of the heau-

acetanilid The committee report went at
length into the headache powder business
and found alarming and dangerous condi-
tions as result of the many poisonous
powders the market and the prevail
ence of people to take these powders
The greater part of the report was de-
voted to acetanilid which was designated
as a dangerous and harmful drug the
''acetanilid habit was referred to ire
quently in the report and a good deal OF
space devoted to the symptoms and harm
full effects to those who use the drug %
excess and even to those who use 1t at
all The report found further that 10 per
cent of the poison cases of the country
was due to acetanilid and this amount did
not begin to represent the sCtuoi S->Ieie
of the deadly work of the drug
The report found that a large number
of proprietary medicines now contain
acetanilid and that a large number OF peo-
pIe have been poisoned from taking them
