The raw milk supplied to the city

THE MYTHICAL DRUG "FIENDS"

Judging from the prominence
given "dope fiends" in certain type
of play, and from the attention paid
them by temperance societies, the
country would be rife with drug ad-
diets. Reassuring facts in this re-
gard are set forth in current bull
Ictin of the Public Health Service.
In that bulletin are contained COM
putations made by DR.. M. l. Will
bert, of the division of pharmacol-
cgy, who takes the figures of drug
importations for the basis of his
conclusions.
Comparing the amounts imported
with the average doses Of addicts
DR.. Wilbert computes that, even if
all the habit forming drugs which
came into this country in 1915 had
been used for illc<timate purposes,
that there would be less than 175,OOO
opium addicts and less than $4,000
cocaine habitues.
vi course, dli uruSs lHlpoIIeu al
rot used for illegitimate purposes.
The total number of addicts is much
smaller than has generally been as
sumed. Added to this is the fact
that the Federal anti-narcotic law,
which went into effect last March,
has reduced the improper use of
drugs to marked degree. The law
has not been wholly effective, DR..
Wilbert admits, because of flaws in
State laws. But these are gradually
being remedied as it is generally
recognized the restrictive laws work
an economic good for any State or
community.
