Interest in the opening game on
Saturday centers in the appearance of
Babe Ruth and Winn on tho mound.

From the SoN training camp. at
Tampa. Fla. comes the news that Ruth
insists on playing left field and hit

has caused opposition among his team
mates, who maintain that Babe" be-
longs in the pitchers box and should
bat as "A pinch hitter. Ruth signed
either to pitch or play left field, it is
understood.
Whether Ruth will be in the box is.
therefore, matter of conjecture. But

Dear SIR:

Dear Sir:
have read and very carefully
considered the rogue ST For permt to
sell In the ships store Of the NAVY the
beverage BEVo, together with the analysis
made FOR the War Department by the United
States Pure Food Dep artment showing BEvo
to be on-elcoho1ic and non 1ntoxt eating.
Enclosed herewith IS manoran-
dunn from the Paymaster General Of the Navy
describing In detail the history Of exist.
ing regulat ions on the sub 3ect OF beverages
afloat, from which you will see that the
main consh GRAFTON in the matter is the
very restricted stowage space on board
ships OF the NAVY there being no reason
known to this Department why the use and
sale OF BEVo should be oh jected to any
more than that OF other heal thfu1 ana nom

ILLEGAL DRUG TRAFFIC.

At the present time Baltimore is somewhat aroused over the number of drug addicts being disclosed in that city, eight dope fiends having been ar rested within a period of two days, but what is the more surprising is the fact that the city criminoIogist attributes this state of affairs to the federal law known as the Harrison drug act. Just how the law which was enacted for the purpose of dealing with this very condition can be said to be responsible for it's increase is difficult to see. It is entirely possible that the criminolo- gist holds the opinion that the pro- visions of the act are not stringent enough and that they do not account sufficiently for the quantities of the drug handled throughout the country, but as for aiding and abetting the de- moraizing practice or making condi- tions worse than they were before seems anything but consistent.
 That the criminologist really be- lieves the law to be without sufficient teeth and to have loopholes which are making it impossible to control the use of drugs as much as is desired for the good of humanity is indicated by his statement to the effect that un- scrupulOus physicians are responsible for the alarming situation. By that it is to be inferred that certain ot those who are permitted to have 6 certain amount of drugs are taking ! advantage of the situation to enricI
 themselves through illegal transac- | tions. That hardly condemns thG
 whole act but indicates fiat while l there may be need of strengthening 1 the provisions of the law there is aIsC | need of looking carefully after the en. | forcement thereof. Too much atten- 1 ton cannot be given to running dowr
 all drug dealers who eyad4 the law
 and imposing upon them the full pen.
 alty when caught 1t is too often tht
 lack of enforcement rather than tht | law that is at fault.
