CAN'T GET WHISKY
ON PRESCRIPTION

Another tangle over prohibition leg
station has resulted in druggists OF the
dty refusing 10 sell whisky even on
description.
Fears OF the "nu" has caused some
hing Of a run on physicians for pre-
icriptions containing the heretofore
magic words "spirltus frumenti." But
such prescriptions have proved virtu-
Ily worthless.
\ conflict between the Loose law
lnd'the Federal statute is blamed by a
member Of the pharmaceutical profess
sion, the national low permitting the
trade TO handle liquor for medicinal
purposes, but the Loose measure for
bids this. On the other hand. the pro-
hibition law requires druggists 10 sell
grain only 10 those furnishing a bond
and specifying a special purpose, while
the Loose bin permits It's sale indis-
crimlnately.
Some holders Of prescriptions have
sought the aid Of the Board Of Health,
but have met with the eTrply that there
Is no law giving the board authority
10 compel the druggists to sell whisky.

THE PRICE OF NEWSPAPERS
(Juneau Enpire)

The Cordova Times intimates that it may have to raise its subscription price. The Anchorage Times and the Seward Gateway recently raised their rates In doing this they are only doing what the papers of the large cities have been forced to do. Before the war the Seattle Times delivered the paper for 50 cents a month or $5 a year. At that time, on account of their greater proportional expense and smaller editions, the Alaska papers were charging $1 a month or $1O a year. Now the Seattle Times is sold for $1 50 a month or SIS year. The proportional expense and smaller editions still operate against the Alaska papers as they did before the war. Most of the metropolitan papers have increased their subscription rates from 100 to 300 or 400 per cent. The Alaska papers which have raised at all have done so only 25 per cent.
