a presentation of the geographic de-
tails of the Adriatic Sea:
Ihe Adriatic Sea is 500 miles long
and about 130 miles wide in it's great
est width. 1t separates the Italian and
Balkan peninsulas as far as Brindisi
and the lower coast of Albania, and
ends at the Strait of Otranto nv

Istr1an coasts decrease this average to
about 80 miles. The sea is very deem

more than 1000 feet in its southern
area.

and lined with numerous rocky is
lands which belong to Istria and Dali
mat1a, This eastern coast is of great
naval and commercial value, well
formed for the upbuilding of great.
thriving ports, and by reason of its
most continuously mountainous shores.
It's deep CULTS and bays, and its screen
ing fringe of rocky islands, advantaee-
ously defended. The western, or ItaI-
ian coast, on the other hand. is low

good harbors and offers few natural
advantages for defense.
The commercial importance Of +he

and the Middle Ages was very rreat
rms Importance was somewhat i'm
paired by the opening of the al-sea
route to India and by the determined

TO STOP SALE OF DRUGS TO SOLDIERS
Many Arrests Have Been Made and Convictions OBJ
tanned of Natives of Panama-Between 100 and $50
u. S. Soldiers Had Formed the Cocaine Habit

Panama. June 1 Correspondence of
The Associated Press}.-Following an
investigation ordered by Brigadier
General Clarence R. Edwards, U. S. A.,
commanding the Panama canal troops,
many arrests have been made and a
number of convictions obtained of ma
tives of Panama for selling cocaine and
other drugs to United States soldiers
stationed on the canal. Several SOL
dierS have been arrested and will be
tried for using the drugs and probably
Will be given severe sentences for the
deterrent influence such punishm ent
may have on the many recruits that
are constantly sent to the isthmus.
The inveStiga ton was begun a short
time ago when the United States
troops, following riots, undertook a
separate patrol of the districts of both
Panama and Colon frequented by the
soldiers when on leave from the camps
on the canal zone. 1t was then learned
where soldiers were obtaining cocaine
and becoming addicted to it's use. 1t
is not possible to obtain drugs on the
canal zone because of the severe pen
atty attached to their sale and use
within United States territory.
Addicted to Cocaine Habit.
Captain F. w. Coleman, U. S. A,
commanding the patrol company, early
in his investigation found that many
of the habitues of the tenderloin dis
trict of Panama not only were adj
dicted to the cocaine habit but also
were acting as agents for several of
the largest drug stores in the city in
the sale of the drug. He obtained evil
dence showing the connection between
the small peddlers and the large ven
doris. He asCertained also that in many
instances the soldiers and others can
easily obtain the drug direct from
leading drug stores.

GOVERNOR WALSH ON
RAILROAD LEGISLATION,
Vetoes Two Bills for Financing the
New Haven Road.

Boston, June 1.-Besides vetoing two
bills providing for railroad financing,
both of which were sought by the New
York, New Haven and Hartford rail-
road, Governor Walsh also sent to the
legislature today a bill which he claim
ed would bring about harmony in the
railroad financial legislation in this and
neighboring states. The bill was sug-
gested by the public service commits
sion in its annual report last winter.
All three measures dealt with the
issuance of stocks and bonds by rail-
roads. One of the bills which the gov
renor vetoed specifically validated GER
tain securities of the New Haven com
pany. The other two were general in
their character. Governor Walsh
claimed that the measure which he
sent to the legislature was not ex-
posed to the objections which caused
him to veto the general stock and bond
bill.
