speed with the incoming troops. Over
1875 men enlisted up to Sunday night
in Camp Lee and among them were
two former officers who re-enlisted.
One OF them was an e~x-captain and
the other a lieutenant. The month of
July has already broken the record
for any previous month and nearly
1000 men have been enlisted here
during the month, so far.
Both the mastering office and the
recruiting station were busy all daY

men arriving Saturday. Something
like eco men passed through the mus

This drastic ruling was made plaif
today by 8. r. Brame, United State
internal agent In charge u
Virginia. Mr.. Brame called attention
to q new decision OF the treasury de-
partIr ent. which revoked a DECISION 81
May II, 1918. relating to the quantity
Of narcotic drugs that may be dis
pensed or prescribed by physicians
dentists and veterinary surgeons reg

Harrison act.
The latest ruling on this point fol

1.-THE ruling contained In T. D. 22ot

"The act OF December II. 1914. AZ
amended by the act OF February al
1919. permits the furnishing of mar
cotic drugs by means OF prescriptions
issued by a practitioner for legitimate
medical uses. but the supreme cour.
has held that an order for MORPHINE
issued to an habitual user thereof
not in the course OF professional treat
ment in attempted ure of the hahu
but for the purpose Of providing tht
user with morphine sufficient to keei
him comfortable by maintaining hk
customary use, is not a prescription

TN view OF this decision. the writer
Of such an order. the druggist whe
fills 1t and a person obtaining drug
hereunder, will all be regarded al
guilty OF violating the law"
In Richmond, it is estimated THAI
there are 1872 physicians. According
to Mr.. Brame, the quantity Of NOR
phine which. each physician shoult
dispense il his legitimate practice
should be between 2 IL and 3 grains
per month. On the basis Of EACH
doctor prescribing or using. 21-s

entire quantity Of the narcotic used
in this city for legal purposes In one
mouth would be 4s0 g:ains. or exactly
one ounce.
Mr.. Brame declared that It Is the
purpose of the federal government
to enforce this law to the letter and
from his time forward doctors who
prescribe narcotics for the comfort OF
addict will have their cases brought
before the grand jury. druggists who
fill such prescriptions will not only
face prosecution. but will have their
stock of narcotics seized and the
patient who takes the drug prescribed
in this fashion will also And himself
