DENOUNCES DOPE EVIL
AND QUACK MEDICINES
Rev. J. L. Stocking. in Sermon. De-
plores Loopholes in the Harri-
son Anh-Drus Act.

An appeal to churchmen to join the
fight being waged to stamp out the dope
evil and quack medicines was made last
night by Rev. ]. T. Stocking before a
large congregation at First Congrega-
tional Church. His subject wAs THE
Dope Evil and Quack Medicine"
Rev. Mr.. Stocking praised The Herald
for its recent campaign against dope
and reviewed the campaign of the last
few years against quack medicines, CALL
ing attention especially to the arrest in
New York of scores Of quack doctors.
I'VE have watched with much interest
the campaign made by The Washington
Herald against the dope evil.' said Rev.
Mr.. Stocking. but 1t has been with re-
gret that We have read press reports Of
the loopholes in the Harrison anti-drug
act. 1 believe we won't be entirely free
from the dope evil in the District until
the laws are so amended that doctors
cannot sell drugs to dope fiends or their
friends .
Rev. Mr.. Stocking said the danger OF
harmful medicines will not be erased un-
til there is a law prohibiting advertise
ments Of such medicines.

ITINERANT JUSTICE
COURT IS ABOLISHED
Practice of Trying Auto Speeders on
Public Highway Is Stopped
in MARYLAND.

The itinerant court of justices Of Mary
land was discontinued Yesterday and a
new order of things established. But the
change was a failure. it is said.
In past DAYS constables, accompanied
by afbiters of the law have lurked
around the bends of dusty roads and
stepped out at the proper moment to
nab some auto speeder. When the con-
stable had made the arrest the justice of
the people finished the episode. Either
the arrested persons We're excused or
found guilty and fined. The court was
held on the highway or in the shade of
a tree.
But yesterday things were different.
An order from Automobile Commissioner
Roe of Maryland. said that the justice
of the peace should not make his official
court wherever fancy or circumstance
might call.
Maybe the laws officials were peeved at
the new order. for nearby towns reported
a lull in the customary business of filming
speeders. Rockville. the rock against
which the majority of Washington auto
mobilists dashed. didn't have a single

Hospitals Admit 1mpossibility of
Curing All DRUG Addicts.

SPECIAL TO The Washington Hersd
New York. April 25.-The impossibility
of curing permanently the horde Of drug
addicts swarming in upon city hospitals
was admitted yesterday by DR.. Menas s.
Gregory. director of the pschopathic and
alcoholic service at Bellevue Hospital
Science has got to go deeper than
treatment of drug appetite to obtain
a permanent cure" said DR.. Gregory.
Behind a mans craving for narcotics
lies the impelling influence which can
not be reached by methods now In use
at city hospitals.
THE morality play Experience is q
concrete example of the psychology Of
excess. Youth In the play accepts intoxi-
cation in preference to passion. and ex-
perience considers he has chosen the
lesser Of two evils. Behind the drug
appetite of the dope fend lies some
such psychological choice. To effect a
permanent cure his mind must be treat
ed as well as his body.

the window. A steeple clock point
ed to eight.
Just four years ago. at 8 o'clock
she was dressing for their midday
wedding. She could see every detail
of her girlhood room, invaded by the
assertive new trunk and its half
packed trays; the clothes that Uttered
the bed and chairs; her mother and
Jane in an anxious futter, and her
self moving about in a dream-a
thrilled dream of Warren. He had
come at 10 o'clock and had insisted
on seeing her. Through sheer nerv-

Rousing herself with a start, Helen
handed him the paper in her lap.

ing up for his stick and overcoat.
AS the train drew into the station,
they made their way down the aisle.
There was no waiting porter with
box step on the platform, and the
car was high.
Helen stood aside for Warren to
get down first, but he caught her
about the waist and swung her down
with him, giving her an extra whirl-
around before he set her on her feet.

showed over one of the papers he
had bought at the station and buried
himself in the other.
1t was not the black-lettered head

Yesterday when Warren had said
she could go with him, she had hoped
he was thinking of the date. But
she was determined not to speak OF
it. She wanted him to remember.
The train rolled out of the tunnel
now, and the elaring spring sunlight
flooded their side of the car.
