TO RESTRICT DRUGS AT SOURCE

At last there is coming official
recognition o. the patent fact that
where drugs are permitted to be
manufactured freely it will be diff
cult to prohibit the free selling of
them. The ease with which they
may be Struggled and sold is such
that attempts for regulation are often
ridiculous and never effective in the
long run.
This does not mean that strenuous
effort need not be made to check the
illegal and hellish traffic, the great
est menace which threatens civiliza-
ton at the present time, but it does
mean that we should not rely on that
effort to accomplish the result which
is absolutely needed-restriction at
the source.
Limitation of the production of
noxions drugs is the purpose of
would have appeal made to all the
civilized nations to cooperate to this
end. This would include those gov
ernments which now. derive large
revenue from colonies producing
opium.
Another phase of the situation is
crusade against the drugs being un-
dertaken by certain fraternal organ
izations in this country. one Of which
has placed before President Harding
petition with 100000 signatures
asking him to call an international
conference to devise methods for
suppression OF the drug traffic.
While it would be difficult to con-
ceive of any matter which might more
properly be considered by such
conference there are circumstances
such that the President might be en-
barassed in so doing. About a year
ago our Government. not being a
member Of the League of Nations,
declined an invitation to cooperate
with the Leagues commission for
suppression'bf the opium traffic. The
Government then took the position
hat it was bound by the Hague
treaty concerning opium and it is
said to be furnishing such informa-
ton as is required under that treaty,
but from which little that is effective

The University Of Maine

(Portland- Press Herald.
What is the duty Of the LeSisla-
ture to the University of Maine?
President G. c. Little has said that
unless the State supports it the Uni
versity will be compelled to close it's
doors. This is a thing the people OF
Maine do not. desire to have happen.
Therefore, it is safe to assume, the
Legislature will not Withhold the funds
necessary to maintain the university.
But will the Legislature be doing
its duty, if it does only this?
Does the State owe to it's boys and
girls an equal opportunity to secure
a higher education which the boys
and girls of other states now have?
Has the State performed its full
duty when it only provides facilities
for an education in the public
schools?
In other States. particularly in the
Middle and Western states, the an
Swer to this question seems to have
been that a State is in duty bound 10
supply facilities for the boys and
girls who have left the common
schools and wish to pursue their ed
ucation further. The result in these
states has been the establishment ard
SupPOl VI universities. MANY
of them today being numbered among
the largest and finest in the world.
These universities were established
because, in the beginning, many
states had no colleges such as We had
in the Eastern states. The boys and
girls of the Middle and Western
states. if they wanted college ed
ucatlon, were at first compelled to
come to the East to get it. To the
majority this amounted to a denial of
opportunity. The states concerned
met this problem in a way to insure
their children having an equal chance
with those of the Eastern states.
At first the Eastern states did not
feel the need of state universities.
There were many small and few
large colleges which We're not over
crowded and which. being endowed
institutions, were self supporting. All
OF these Eastern colleges have grown
rapidly until today nearly every one
of them has reached the limit of their
capacity. Nearly all of them deny ad-
every year to we'll qualified
boys and girls (wherc girls are ad-
mitted.) who are compelled to search
for Il college to which they
can go. Maine has some colleges in
exactly this condition. They cannot,
under present conditions. accommodate
more students than they now have
