narcotic laws. Drug addicts at large, particularly those of the criminal type. are known to be a menace to the public safety, and yet nearly half of the states are without any provision for the commitment, treat ment and rehabilitation of drug ad- diets. All the states but one require narcotic education in public schools. The survey also shows that in more than half of the states the narcotic laws do not provide for the revoca- ton of licenses where the licensee is convicted of violation of the nar- cotic laws.
 Captain Hobson, on behalf of the conference, recently made a report to the Wickersham commission, em- bodying suggestions for federal and state legislation. During the year the New York narcotic survey com mittee (sponsored by the World Conference on Narcotic Education) |, of which Charles H. Futile Is chair man. appeared before the commits sion to submit their findings in New York. Dr E. George Payne, of New York university, has made an in- quiry into the extent of the use of drugs among high school students and how far the state laws in the 47 states requiring narcotic education. are being observed. Dr John A. Kil- Han, director of bio-chemistry. of the New York Post Graduate Hos- pital and Medical school, has studied the physiological action of narcotics and problems of medical treatment.
 During Narcotic Education week. on February 26, Captain Hobson is to be one of the speakers at the con- vention of the department of super intendence of the National Educa- ton association, meeting in Detroit. Michigan.
