DECLARES HE WILL ENFORCE
PURE room LAWS AND ANTI
DRUG STATUTES.
ASKS STATES TO AID.
SANS THAT CONDITIONS WILL

Co-oPERATEs WITH Ma
TI0NAL GOVERNMENT.

NEW YORK, Feb. I2.--Dr Carl L.
Alsberg. successor of Dr Harvey w.
Wiley. as chief of the bureau of
chemistry, made the first public state
ment of his policy at the Waldorf
tonight before the National Assocfa-
ton of Manufacturer of Medicinal
Products.
DR.. Alsberg bespoke cooperation
between the manufacturers, the pub
lie, the press. in one direction, and
between the States and the fedral
government, in another, all designed
for the control and regulation of the
handling of narcotics and breaking up
of the indiscriminatev sale of drugs.
like cocaine and opium and their de-
rtvatives.
DR.. Alsberg appeared with the olive
branch. but made ii plain that he
also wore sword. While he adyo-
Gated cooperation, he was as ready
and willing to enforce all pure food
and drug laws as anybody ever In
charge of the bureau.
Confidence of Public.
So Tar as pure food is concerned,
DR. Alsberg declared that great step
wac taken when the bureau won the
confidence of the public
We realize fully, he said. that
much remains to be done. but pub
nc CoHUQepCe mas DStN won, anu pIE-
cautions have been established. No
backward step will be taken.
1T is up to the separate States to
make the pure food and drug prob
lem simple. Conditions throughout
the natior will be right only when
each State passes and enfOrces ade-
quate food laws, and when these laws
have been unified and harmonized
with those of the federal govern
ment."
Drugs and Medicines.
There was a different tale to tell
when it came to drugs and medicines,
the speaker declared. The fault had
been in part with unenforcible parts
of the law.
Even If the people are protected
from quack medicine, a great task
remains. and that is to protect them
from habit-forming drugs, such as
opium and cocaine.
The Harrison bill. now before con-
gress, shows one way in which this
great sale can be curbed. That pro-
poses to license all persons dealing
with the drugs, and as the great bulk
of both Is imported. every consign-
ment can be noted, followed and con-
troiled as it is distributed among the
several States.

The yenabie Street Baptist church
started about twenty-five years ago aT

the church continued to grow.
