ports.
A recent importation from Mexico.
it has found a ready acceptance IN
this country, where there are but a
few scattered state laws to prevent
it. Sale of the drug, which comes
from flowers of the herb Cannabis in
dica, is made in the open by Chicago
drug stores, and cigarettes made from
the flower are freely sold by some to-
bacco stores.
The hashish habit is similar in its
effect to any other narcotic habit.
The flowers of the Cannabis indica-
when smoked III cigarettes, act as g
powerful aphrodisiaS. with a marked
effect on the users.
Peddlers of cigarettes containing
the stuff have been found recently in
cabarets and dance halls, where
young boys ana girls are said to have
been trying them out.
We are getting complaints every
day from mothers who claim their
children are acting as If under the
influence of drugs" L. j. Timer. chief

The effects of the flowers when
smoked are powerfully exciting and
aphrodisiac. The fresh flowers are
much more powerful than the dried,
but big traffic has grown up in the
dried flowers
Because the Federal narcotic act
does not prohibit the sale Of hashish.
an effort is to be made to have State
laws enacted TO put an end TO its use.
California already has a statute bar

Spread OF the habit in Kentucky is
going to make the Legislature of that
State the first to be asked to enact a
prohibitory law in the new drive
