Drug Addicts Rush
To Jersey to Dodge
New Narcotic Rules
Drastic Regulations Held
in Abeyance While En-
fOrcement Is Planned. but
Doctors Heed Warnings

Drug addicts are focking oht of New
York and renting rooms and houses ir
New Jersey in the hope of escaping the
regulations put into force by the State
Narcotic Commission and Board of
Health, according to a statement made
yesterday to The Tribune by Andrew
r. Parkhurst, of the Bureau of Mar
cotic Research
The regulations providing for identi-
cation and regstra tion officially went
into effect July 7. They were SUSPEND
ed temporarily this week to give time
for the perfection of the machinery
Health Commissioner Copeland said last
night that they would become effective
next week
Addicts Must Register
The regulations which have caused
such CONSERVATION are briefly, as fol.
lows: All addicts are requested to go
to l2S Prince Street, where they re-
ceIvc registration and dosage cards.
They have to produce three photo
graphs for the triplicate card system.
One is retained by the Board of Health.
one by the State Narcotic Commission
and the other by the patient. On the
cards is record of the patients name
address,, age, weight, race, color and
identification marks.
When the addict wants prescription
he takes the dosage card to a doctor,
who fills it in and signs it. The drug
gist goes through the same procedure
At the end of the month this card is
surrendered to the Board of Health and
new one is issued. In this way the
authorities can keep tabs on the doctor
the druggist and the patient.
AdGicts Crave Relief
II know for a fact that hundreds
OF addlcts are in a frenzy about this
thing" declared Mr.. Parkhurst yes
terday. These regulations hit the
better class, not the underworld, and
there are more addicts on Fifth Ave
nue. than on the Bowery. Oniy 40(
have registered up to date, which
means that thousands are absolutely
deprived of narcotics. Doctors anc
druggists are afraid to give drugs, be.
cause most are unaware the regula
tions temporarily are suspended. The
result Is that thousands are in agony

one of many instances.

had woman in to see me who got
letter from her doctor and took il
down to the clinic. 1t begged an ex-
ception in her case and stated that il
was an absolute necessity for her to
have drugs on account of her physical
condition. She tells me she was
treated like an ordinary criminal and
was barely able to reach a doctor be-
fore she collapsed"

Story TelIino in japan.

1t is a curious fact that in Toxic
one of the most popular of the pro-
fessional story teiiers is an English
man. This is Ishii Black, whose father
was the founder of the first newspaper
in Japan. Mr.. Black was born. and
brought up in Japan, and speaks the
language like a native He tells his
stories with such humor and pathos
that he has few equals among the
"hanashika" as the story tellers are
called. The art of story telling is
much more difficult than acting. The
actor has the advantage of scenery and
costume TO arouse and maintain inter
est, but the story teller has to create
interest by his own merit and person
atty. And often he has to impersonate
five or six characters in one story.
