NOT MANY DRUG
.F|ENDS IN THE
COUNTRY NOW
TELY-COMPILED STATISTICS
SHOW THAT NUMBER OF P&R-
SONS ADDICTED TO HABITUAL
USE OF NARCOTICS is RATHER
SURPRISINGLY SMALL.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, Dec. THAT the num-
Der Of persons in the United States
addicted to the habitual use Of mar
cotic drugs is not nearly so large as
had been supposed. as the conclusion
of the public health service, in a re-
port 1t had been estimated that be-
tween l and 2 per cent of the popula-
tion were drug habuatees. Declaring
that while this estimate is undoubted-
ly too high, the report says that the
figures show the existence OF all too
many users Of narcotic drugs. The.
belief is expressed also that the evils
due to the improper use Of such drugs
have been greatly exaggerated.
The conclusions are based on data
furnished by the Tennessee authorities
which. the report states, show that
during the first six months Of the op-
GRAFTON of the state anti-narcotic law,
14O3 permits were issued to persons al
lowing them to purchase narcotic
drugs, and also on figures giving the
approximate number Of average doses
Of the habit forming drugs imported
into the United States in 1911 and 1912
being respectively, 3,04O,9OO,OO0 and D.
3O8, zoe, 900. On the basis of the figures
for the years named, the report says
it would appear that basing an esti-
mate on the average consumption cf
the drug habitue in Tennessee, each
addict would consume approximately
/, 900 doses each month or 1900 doses
a year.
The state OF Tennessee" says the
reports, contains approximately per
cent of the total population NJ the
United States and on the supposition
that the same ratio of the number Of
tor al
consumed will hold good throughout
the United States, we would have
total of something more than 10000
drug habitues, consuming approx
mately s50,O00,o00 average doses per
year. This probably is somewhat low
but it is fair to assume that not more
than duoble this amount, or approx
mtaely 1,7OO,0O0,O00 average doses are
consumed annually by drug habdtues."

tary Bryan is Chairman
Has Been Called.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, Dec. 2.-GraNe contro-
versies between the nations of South
America and the European beIliger-
ents led today to the calling of a
conference for next Tuesday of the
governing board of the Pan-American
union. The board comprises dipIo-
matte representatives from twenty
American republics with Secretary Of
State Bryan of the United States as
chairman.
The conference will discuss various
suggestions made by Argentina, Chile,
Peru, Uruguay, and Ecuador for q
stronger assertion of the rights of neu-
trails and the exclusion of belIigerent
warships from American waters.
Chilean officials especially are fear
full that Germany's alleged disregard
of Chilean neutrality may influence
other beliigerents to disregard the ter
ritorial jurisdiction of Chile and send
their warships within the three-mile
limit to stop German operations.

PARCEL POST TO
GERMANY FROM u. S.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, Dec. 2.-Instructions
were today being sent by Postmaster
General Burleson to postmasters
throughout the country directing them,
pending further notice to accept for
mailing to Germany and Austria
Hungary all packages which conform
to the prescribed conditions of the in
ternational parcel post service. This
service between the United States and
the counties named had been suspend
ed because of lack of transportation
facilities due to the war Resumption
of the service will make 1t possible
to send Christmas remembrances to
European countries which would other
wise have been impossible.
Parcel post packages are now mall
able to all countries with which the
United States have parcel post con-
ventions, except Belgium. Turkey and
the North and Northeastern France
where military operations prevent re-
sumption of the service.
Shortly after the war began Ger
many, Belgium and France asked that
the service be suspended. Neither
Austria nor Hungary requested sus-
pension, but the war caused g. prac-
ticaI stoppage of the service.
