Drugs a Disease Says Expert.

Washington. April 6.-Drug addic-
ton is very common in this country
and constitutes menace to the ma
ton, according to an article in the
Public Health Reports for March 10,
1915, which reviews the efforts made
to lessen the abuse of habit forming
drugs and analyses the Federal and
State laws restricting or regulating
the distribution and use of opium, CO.
ca, and other narcotic and habit-form-
ing drugs.
The abuse of narcotic drugs involves
economic, social, moral and pubic
health questions that collectively con-
stitute one of the most serious prob
lens before the people of the United
States today
States, drug addiction is regarded as
a disease, and these States have pro-
vided a systematic treatment for those
addicted to the use of drugs, while in
Michigan such person may be ad-
judged incompetent and a guardian
appointed. A law recently enacted in
Tennessee permits the sale of marco
tics to drug addicts registered accord
ing to the law Similar laws exist in
other States, but the New York law for
treatment of drug addicts is considered
the better measure.
The principal shortcomings of the
present laws are that no method of
enforcement is outlined and no speci-
fc appropriations are made for their
enforcement.
In order to bring about the uniform
ity, in the enactment and enforce
ment of anti-narcotic laws, those who
are interested in the subject should
make a careful comparative study of
the existing laws to determine the
reasons for the inadequacy of these
laws. Statistics should be compiled
showing the nature and extent of the
use of habit forming drugs, and earn
est efforts should be made to secure
uniform legislation which will pre-
vent the misuse of such drugs.
The solution of the drug problem
will be well worth the thought, time
and expense required and all who are
interested in the welfare of the Amer
lean people should give their support
to the new Federal anti-narcotic law
which aims to reduce the number of
drug addicts and to remove the temp
tation from Others

MILK BUSINESS LARGE.
Oyster Receiving Stations Distribute
100000 In County In Is
MnnfhS

Some idea of the extent of the milk
business of Frederick county is given
by Mr.. George NJ Oyster, Jr., who is
engaged in the trade with Offices at
lll6 Connecticut avenue, Washington,
D. G., and has receiving stations in
Frederick city and at Walkersville.
For the Is months prior to January 1,
1915, his milk business in Frederick
county alone amounted to more than
S2OO,OOO of which more than $4,000
was distributed by the Frederick city
station. Frederick county farmers
got this money. In addition Mr.. Oys-
ters business distributed more than
$4,000 during the same period in the
city and county by way of salaries.
and general expenses.

Speeders To Be Given But One
Warning.

An investigation into the speeding
of motorists on the state roads lead
ing into Frederick and some minor
adjustments of regulations of the var
ious laws controlling the operation of
motor vehicles in the state and coun-
ty will be made soon when Deputy
Motorcycle Commissioner William
Logan comes to Frederick county. For
the past few days automobilists of
Washington county and that vicinity
have unconsciously been subjected to
a close observation. Logan, accord
ing to report from that section, finds
that there are few infringements of
the state laws.
These are officer Logans instruc-
tons:
My instructions are to give speed
offenders one warning and then to
proceed to make arrests for any 9TH
er speed violations" In speaking of
the conditions in Washington county,
he said, There seems now to be an
inclination to keep within the law,
and one state road, where the road
is in fine condition for speeding, there
does not seem to be the desire on the
part of automobilists to cut her loose
that prevailed some time ago"
There is a question of just how Lo-
gan will find speeding inclinations"
in Frederick county If the reports
received from the officers of the city
and county can be taken for their
face value a big percentage of auto
mobile drivers and owners are due for
a warning" Without any apparent
attempt to eXaggerate the Frederick
officers are thoroughly convinced that
this county is the home for speeders
and violations of the traffic regula-
lions.
Although officers may declare a
large percentage of motorists passing
through Frederick are exceeding the
speed limit or that most all violate
some of the traffic regulations there
Is one thing that cannot be said of
Frederick county The fines for in
fringement of traffic regulations. in
Guiding speeding, are particularly
mild when compared with those of
Baltimore and other cities. 1t is re
ported that state official declared
that in no other city than Frederick
are speed violations and traffic in
Engagements so lightly punished.
Whether the magistrates of the city
and the county will continue to let off
SO easy the motorists who persist in
breaking traffic ordinances and speed
laws is a question. 1t has been init
mated that some drastic action may
be made to have old offenders brought
to task.
One of the city officials earnestly
explained a few days ago that it was
not the intention of the police force
OF the city to be unjust or domineer-
ing in its methods They simply want
the motorists to respect the local and
state traffic regulations for the benefit
OF the public and to cut to a mini
mum accidents.
Mr.. Logan is quoted as having said
IN Hagerstown that reports coming to
MIN, showed that Frederick is in need
OF a slight stirring up, both as far as
speed on the state roads near Freder-
ick are concerned as well as the min
or regulations.
