j. s. To RENEW
CAMPAIGN To
BAR DRUGS

The American campaign to outlaw
dope throughout the world will
be launched anew at the Interpar-
hamentary Union in Berlin on Au.
gust %, representative Stephen G..
Porter (R,l of Pennsylvania, chair
man Of the House Foreign Affairs
Committee, said today.
Fortified by Congressional sup
port of his own bill to establish
Federal narcotics farms, Porter will
seek action on a. resolution calling
for worldwide recognition that drug
addiction is a disease and demands
compulsory treatment of addicts.
Drastic Action Urged
The resolution proposes that the
delegations at the Interparliamen-
tary Union, representing the high.
est legislative bodies of more than
40 nations. urge their governments
to take drastic action to end the
dope" evil.
THE resolution, which j. has
evoked favorable comment from rep
resentatives Of many nations, will
necessarily be acted upon by the
union at Berlin" said Porter.
Adoption of the plan of compul-
sorry treatment OF drug addicts Is
believed by those familiar with the
problem to afford a potent means
Of lessening the demand for narcotic
drugs and affect a curtailment of
production and of illicit traffic"
Porter will present statistics de-
signed to show that narcotic drugs
cause more than a billion dollars
economic waste in the United States
every year.
Farm Laws Seen
Backing the Porter resolution at
Berlin will be the American delegates
of rs members of the Senate and
House.
During the l-cent session of Con.
gress the House unanimously passed
the Porter bill to establish two mar
cotlcs farms as a part of the Federal
prison system for treatment of pris-
oners and others who applied.
The measure failed of passa ge
in the Senate. only because of the
tremendous pressure of business
and the filibuster, Porter said, pre-.
dieting that it would become law
soon after Congress meets in Decem.
Der.
Porter also announced that he
planned to visit several countries
in Europe during the summer, to
secure backing for the worldwide
fight. While progress has been made
in the last few years, there still is
a tremendous production Of opium
and Illicit traffic reaches into bill
lions every year. he said.
Recent reports indicated that in
terror provinces of China, en-
couraged by war lords who gain
huge revenue from dope" have
expanded their poppy acreage.

Railway Age.
Crops and business conditions in
1927 were generally good throughout
the territory served by the railroad.
according to Sproule, and the cQm-
pany traffic volume for this year
should be fairly comparable with last
year.
"InroadS were made upon the
revenues of 1927 by wage increases
after mediation and arbitration under
established law and there remains
only hope that we may be able
to recoup some of these losses through
increased efficiency during 1929" said
Sproule.
There has been a recession in
business in the last several months,
particularly in building materials,
automobiles and mineral products,
and recovery in these respects may
he expected. With favorable weather
conditions during the winter, crops
should be good and 1925 freight trat-
fic generally ought to approximate
that OF the year just closed"

Mr. Colpitts went further, declaring
that "the restriction of competition in
transportation which the merger would
bring about must retard the industrial
development of the great and growing
territory of the northwest" The north
ern lines, operating separately, had
thrown out network of feeders
through the northwest, he explained,

tenn. This railroad expansion. he said,

However, indications that the coun-
try in general was displaying greater
willingness to let go of farm supplies
of corn were apparently more than
the trade as a whole was in a mood
to withstand. Profit-taking on the

February "a, 1923,
End Member for Christiansted Town
(Cba6ert): Mr.. Chairman. | see in the
remarks on this bill to erect bathhous-
es." How many lighthouses are going
to be built?
The Chairman remarked: For the in.
formation Of members | will say this.
When the Governor was over here on his
recent visit in a personal conversation
took this matter up with nim and told
him that it was necessary to have bath
houses at this end Of the island be in
structed the Assistant Public Works Of
ficer to 20 with me 10 select The site on
which to build and the only spot we
found suitable is in GalIOWS Bay. A
beginning can be made and if the result
proves satisfactory it could be added to

kudgetted is too small for two bath
houses; | have hopes however that it will
be increased.
