Drug users, suddenly cut off from their

Already several suicides have been re-

Action, having for it's aim the regu-

DRUG-BUYING ODDS

In an article entitled ''Drug-buying
Odds" Dr. W. A. Evans, former Health
Commissioner Of Chicago, tells some in
teresting things. Speaking Of physicians
and medicines, he says:
''People take too much medicine. They
take too much medicine from physicians.
The physicians know they give too much
medicine. Sometimes they solve the ques-
ton by giving advice without medicine.
Sometimes they give medicine to satisfy
the mind Of the patient, which medicine
they know will have no physiological
effect''
Various state food departments have
been investigating so-called domestic rem
edies After 10000 analyses, DR.. Evans
states, these indicate that when person
purchases domestic remedy over the
counter in drug store, the chances that
he will not get what he pays for are As
to SIS.
He concludes:
"These Investigations show that buying
domestic remedies is more of a gamble
than rolling the marble at county fair. -

Asserting that the judicial taking Of
human life has failed in it's purpose, Gov
ernor Dunno, in a special message to the
legislature, recommends the abolishment
of capital punishment in the State of Him
ois
After comparing the results in the states
where capital punishment is in effect, with
those in which it has been abolished, the
message closes with these words:
"Taking human life is only jusifiable in
self-defense Under the pretense of self
defense the people of the State of Illinois
have been for years taking human life
under the forms of law. AS defense of
society against murder, judicial taking of
human life has proved to be failure 1t
has proved to be no defense.
Imprisonment is equally effective, with
less opportunity of irrevocable mistake.
Thou shalt not kill, is the law OF Chris
tianity and should be the law Of twentieth
century humanity.

replace the punishment of death with the
punishment of Imprisonment"
