Prospective consumption q: 50 per
cen, OF tho registered pharmacists in
Virginia under the selective draft now
contemplated by the War Department.
furnished the state Board OF phar-
macy yesterday with matter for serious
discussion. 1t was estimated by OIL

tered assistant pharmacists would be
eligible for service under the first

partment should discriminate in their
favor on the ground that they were
engaged in work indispensable to the
public welfare. half of the young phar-
macists would be drawn into the first
army. and many drug stores In the
state would face a serious problem.
The places OF the incn drafted into
