Income tax dodgers will no longer

In the past it has been the custom

SIONER DECLARES dope"
MENACE is GROWING.
CONGRESSIONAL INVESTIGATION
MAKES STARTLING REVELATION
I Thousands of Drafted Men Dismissed
From Camps as Drug Addicts. Co.
caine Next Thing to Alcohol in Its
Effects Upon the "Fiends.''


NEW YORK, N. Y.-"There'll be
an increase in the drug habit as soon
as prohibition goes into effect. AS the
number of 'drunks' grows smaller the
number of coke fiends' will be larger.
That is the "dry wave" warning
straight from DR.. Royal S. Copeland,
health commissioner of Americas
largest city, which houses more "Hap-
Ply Dust" users than any other city
in the United States.
Cocaine in it's effect is the next
thing to ALCOHOL" DIR. Copeland ex-
planned; land naturally the habit
must grow as soon as the country is
made dry. The narcotic evil will be-
come a menace in this country"
Increasing in Dry Territory.
DIR. Copeland is not alone in his
fears. Investigations of the congress
sional committee, headed by Repre-
sentative Rainey, of Illinois, disclos
ed the fact that drug habits were
increasing in territory already "dry,"
and that thousands of drafted men
were dismissed from military camps
after it was learned that they were
drug addicts.
The new revenue bill increases the
efficiency of the Harrison narcotic
law, providing for the registration of
manufacturers and dealers in pro-
prietary medicines containing com
pounds of narcotic drugs.
The United States internal revenue
service estimates there are 100000
users of narcotics in New York city.

drug addicts in the United States.

drug users Demand in dry" states.
especially of the south, for narcotic
patent medicines has increased ire
mendously within the last year or
two.
The evil can be controlled only
by registration of the 'fiends,'" as
serts DR.. Copeland. GIVE them
cards bearing their fngerprints and
their photographs. Establish an
agency which they would have to
come to with their prescriptions to
get their supplies. In this manner
their doses can be gradually reduced
until they are cured of the habit"
Filled $4,000 Prescriptions.
Internal revenue officers raided
one New York drug store and took
with them in taxicabs $4,000 pre-
scrlptions for morphine and heroin.
This was Cohen's pharmacy, Is Am
sterdam avenue. 1t represented that
stores annual crop of dope" pre-
scriptions, and cost drug fiends
S150,000. The raiders found about
$4,000 worth of dope" in the
store
These prescriptions had been fur
nished dope fends by physicians,
three of whom were arrested. Cohen's
pharmacy was described by revenue
agents as the greatest retail market
for drugs they had ever heard of.
But they insist that many other drug
stores make large profits filling
dope" prescriptions given by doc
tors, and they assert that many doc
tors make speciality of catering to
drug users, selling narcotic prescrip-
tons at from 81 to SO.
