DOCTORS AROUSED BY
STORIES OF DRUGGISTS
Pharmacists Claim Physicians Pre-
Scriptions, If Filled As Written,
Would Often Cause Deaths

Hartford, March IA hearing be-
fore the legislative committee on pub
lie health and safety, yesterday after
noon on q bill which aimed to prohibit
doctors from dispensing medicine to
their patients, unless they first passed
the state examinations prescribed for
pharmacists, started lively row be-
tween druggists representing the Con-
necticut Pharma ceutical association
which sponsored the bill, and doctors
who opposed it. The row started
when L. j. Garvan of Bethel, secre-
tary of the association, and Judge
legal representative, said, among
other things, that they had evidence
in pharmacy records that many doc
tors In this state had written pre-
scriptions which would have resulted
in the deaths of their patients if the
prescriptions had been filed as writ
ten, that every druggist has seen
instances Of this kind of carelessness
and that the public would not stand
for the practice If they knew the in
side of the story. DR.. T.. j. Nc

ing that, although he had made mis-
takes, he had never made such mis-
takes as druggists do. and by char
