WAR ON OPIUM IS
STARTED IN CHINA
Eradication of Blind
Dens" Sought by OPP
ponentS of the Drug

SHANGHAI, June 29.--With re-
ports OF the International Anti-op-
ium association declaring that the
opium poppy is being grown extens-
lively In certain provinces of China
and that much OF the suffering from
famine Is caused by the planting of
the poppy instead of wheat. n ma
uon-widc campaign against opium is
now under way.
An investigation OF opium smok-
Ing here reveals the facts that pala-
tiai opium dens Of this city-werld
famous n few years ago-have/ dis
appeared; that the wealthy Chinese
qre smoking the pipe in beautiful
" fitted rooms in their own homes;
hat the poorer classes seek out
bady-kept ders. carefully hidden,
and that the coOlie class has resort
cd 10 opium tea.
Up until 1917, when the dens were
closed by law, the opium palaces
were the most popular gathering
places of the Chinese.
There were two famous opium
nalaces in Shanghai--the Nan chen
Sing and the Peh Chin Sing. with
some "a other dens they were IL
censed and under police protection.
Today those famous dens have been

and tea houses, and the American
tourists n Shanghai In search OF
u thrill will find visiting an opium
den practically Impossible.
Opiums Well Furnished
Time was when opium smoking
was considered quite the thing. The
palaces were beautifully fitted, with
private rooms where the patron
could receive n massage. shave, haiF-
cut, manicure, meals, drink-any-
thing his luXury-loying heart de-
sired.
In the winter the dens were COM
fortahly heated, while in the summer
electric fans or punkahs. pulled by
Chinese boys. cooled the rooms.
The kong" or great opium couch,
arranged to accommodate two smok-
ers, the lamp and other smoking
equipment being placed in the center
was the chief article OF furniture.
The Kong" was made OF lacquer or
redwood and was richly inlaid and
intricately carved.
An air of culture characterized the
place. Paintings by old masters
hung on the walls, rare porcelains
adorned the rooms, and masses of
growing plants and blossoming flow
ers were artistically arranged.
