sorely missed by her near neigh
bors and friends, To the sorrow
ing husband and lonely children,
and the bereaved sisters, the
people of the Flathead extend
sincere sympathy.

IN DRUG
LAW MAKE COCAINE
EASY TO GET HERE
Legislative Hearing Will Begin
Here on Monday to Frame
Stronger Statutes
From san Correspondent. O: Tho Tribune

From san Correspondent o; Tho Tribunsl
Albany, Dec. Drug users are find
ing it so easy 20 get their favorite
poisons in the City Of New York, de-
spite the stringent Federal and state
laws, that legislative inquiry will be-
Gin Monday afternoon in the rooms OF
the Board Of Estimate at New York.
George II. Whitney, State Senator
from Saratoga County, IS chairman OF
the committee upon whose report will
be based amendments to the drug law.
Mr.. Whitney said to-day:
at was largely the result OF per-
sistent efforts on the part OF The New
York Tribune that the present state
laws preventing the Unrestricted sale
OF such enslaving drugs as cocaine and
morphine we're adopted.
1--WE are informed, however, that the
law needs several amendments which
will close up holes revealed by the eX-
periences OF year.
~ hope New Workers who are in
terested and who may have valuable
information will attend the hearing.
We want to make it impossible for
'fend' to get the stuff which makes
him a 'fiend.'
Zone of the avenues remaining open,
we are told. is in the provision OF the
law which permits the sale OF NOR
phine, for example, TO manufacturers
Of cough medicines or the like. In
some instances the raw morphine has
found its way into the illegal retail
market"
