Druggists Who Sell Alcohol
Without Medication Are
Threatened With Arrest

Evidence that so-called non-bev-
erage alcohol is being sold in this
city without sufficient compounding
was brought to light to-day through
a statement issued by Collector of
Internal Revenue b. f. Davis, in
which he warns pharmacists against
dispensing such alcohol contrary to
Federal rulings. The government
permits the sale of this article only
between bonded dealers, and 1t can
not legally be obtained under ply
sician's prescription unless ii is so
compounded or medicated as to rem
der 1t unfit for use as beverage.
The statement to-day said that in
formation has been received by the
collector that pharmacists are dis
pensing the mon beverage alcohoF'
on physicians prescriptions without
medication as prescribed by the Blu
reau of Internal Revenue. The Blu
reau prescribes that alcohol can be
furnished in this manner under one
of ten formulae, but unless in the
compounding II is 80 medicated as
10 render 1t useless as beverage, 1t
is a clear violation. of the law.
The only other way in which such
alcohol can be obtained is by per-
mits obtained through bonding. and
sale without medication is permitted
only by one bonded dealer to another
bonded dealer. In case of prescrip-
ton compounding. the druggist will
be held responsible as to the suffi-
cheney of the medication. 1t is thought
that the warning issued to-day per-
tains in particular to such cases
where insufficient compounding has
not been observed
