Death From sIeep:P Producing Drugs
On Increase Following Prohibition

New York, Oct. 11.-1ncrease OF
deaths here from slecp-producine
drugs, use of which, it is said, has
been acquired by many persons since
the advent. of prohibition, has led
Commissioner Copeland to order an
Investigation of sales of such drugs.
Additional restrictions may be placed
on their sale, he said.
The investigation was ordered be-
cause of statementby Chief Medical
Examiner Norris regarding the in
crease in deaths attributed to this
cause. He said that alcoholic addicts,
finding themselves nervous and sleep
less in many instances where they
have been unable to purchase liquor
for their customary "night-cap" be-
fore retiring and the "eye-opcncr" on
arising, had rcsorted to other arti-
fical and dangerous ways of wooing
sleep. The desired relief, he said,
was obtained through the use of the
nerve-quieting effects of certain
drugs.
DR.. Copeland, in instructions to
the Bureau of Foods and Drugs to
begin an investigation Immediately,
referred to most of the drugs about
which complaint has been made Of
fically, as "trcacherous somnifaci-
ents," fifteen grains, of one Of which,
he said, were sufficient to cause
death. He admitted that fatalities
from the use of these drugs were
altogether too frequent"
DIR. Morris declared that deaths
from slcep-producing drugs occurred
in hospitals and in what formerly
were sanitoriums for treatment of
alcoholism. Deaths from such causes
also had been recorded as suicides,
he said. Sale of such drugs, he add
cd should be governed by the same
strict regulations as those governing
the sale of poison.
