CURB PLACED ON WHISKY
BY COMMISSIONER KRAMER
Physicians Will Be Limited to
300 Prescriptions for Year
Under New Ouder

Louisville, April Sweeping
regulations issued yesterday by John
F. Kramer, Federal Prohibition Com
missioner, in the opinion OF James
II. Combs, prohibition Director for
Kentucky, and other Government
officials, will abruptly end writing
by Louisville physicians of whisky
prescriptions" which, it is charged,
have been issued here by the whole
sale"
Commissioner Kramer, according
to information received by Director
Combs by telegraph, has ruled that
only 800 prescription blanks yearly
will be issued to physicians, and
druggists will not be authorized to
purchase or use more than 400
gallons OF whisky yearly.
William V. Gregory, United States
District Attorney, said last night
that 500 prescriptions calling for
whisky are ample to meet require
ments of any reputable" physician
in a year.
He said that thousands OF pre-
scriptions have been written by
some physicians within the last few
months, but that many others, in
Guiding those who stand highest in
the medical profession, have only
ABOUT six month.
Three Cooks Is Limit
Other sections OF the regulations,
which Federal officials here regard
as the most drastic yet issued for
enforcement OF the national prohi-
bition law, provide that physicians
who have already had more than
three prescription books shall not
receive another book in 1920, and
that all prescriptions shall be issued
on the regulation prescription blank
issued by theGovernmsnt.
The new regulations were sromul-
I gated in Louisville yesterday by feI-
mer Gov. James d. Black, chief in
I spector for Director Combs. and his
aides-Judge K. Hoggc. Henry E
Mahor and w. B S;aHfeld who have
! been in Louisville for the last two
weeks investigating reports of boot

TOBACCO GROWERS PLAN
NEW ORGANIZATION
Fa a-mers Would Eliminate Mid
Gemen by Operating Their
Own Floors

Paducah. KY, April 1.-Defnite
action for an Organization of all
tobacco growers Of the black patch
of Western Kentucky was adopted
at a mass-meeting held at the court
house here. More than $50 plant
ers from all counties of the district
were present.
The organization plan was pre-
sented by F. G. Ewing, Tennessee
grower. and proposes to band all
growers of the district together in
an efficient working unit for the
operation of loose noors under the
direction OF the farmers themselves,
doing away with the middleman's S
profit.
Growers unanimously pledged to
hold the present crop and the next
two crops. The scheme OF organiza-
tion provides a minimum price on
the tobacco brought to the aoor.
Growers received pledges of sup
port from Paducah bankers and
merchants.
