THOUSANDS TRAPPED BY
NEW NARCOTIC DRUG ACT.
Physicians and Druggists Fall Into Net
Set by Harrison Law.

''Some evidence of the effort being
made by the government to enforce the
Harrison narcotic drug act is shown
by the fact that the number of physi-
clans and druggists SO far arrested for
alleged violations Of its provisions has
reached into the thousands" declared
DR.. B. r. Rhees of the anti-narcottc
bureau Of the treasury department.
1--WE are contending with two great
problems in enforcing the law" the
doctor continued lone is the physi-
clan, who will write a prescription
when there Is no necessity for his so
doing, and the other is the druggist
who sells without the proper prescrip-
ton. Most Of the arrests have been
from these two classes Of violatOrs of
the Law, though, of course, some ped
dlers Of the drug have been aDpre-
hended.
Under the present conditions, how
ever, every peddler must get his supply
from some source over which we keep
a watch, so that is phase. Of the work
which can finally be checked up, though
not, of course, Immediately In all cases.
One Of the principal troubles now is
that prior to March /, when the law
went into effect. number of druggists
stocked up with morphine sulphate, CO.
caine and other forbidden drugs and
then failed to enter them all on their
inventory. In such cases, unless we
can get the goods on them.' they may
dispose Of large quantities Of the drugs
at fabulous profits through selling to
persons who have no prescriptions, and
perhaps even to peddlers.
I'VE are working the druggists
against the physicians in the hope of
checking up those who do not seek to
comply with the spirit Of the law. The
druggist can tell, by the size Of the
doses. whether the purchase is legiti-
mate. If the drug is for an addict the
doses should be gradually reduced. On
the other hand, for an incurable, to
whom the drug is given merely to re-
lieve pain, the doses should show q
mild rate Of increase, as naturally to
assuage the same pain the amount Of
narcotic must be constantly increased.
Our inspectors, of course, could de-
tect the filling Of prescriptions at DIFF
ferent drug stores on inspecting the
narcotic prescription files OF every
store and would at once look into any
suspicious case"
