the Coptic church. They keep fasts
and holy days innumerable. But
the people are pagans at heart,

Results of Experiments.
The drug was then given to nine
other patients for prolonged pc
riods, all of whom lost weight with
out cutting down on the amount of
food usually eaten. In these nine
cases no i'll effects were noted.
These research physicians thus
concluded that dinitrophenol would
be useful in the treatment of obe-
sity or overweight.
However, because of the possible
dangers of the use of the drug in
patients, they suggested that the
drug be used only under controlled
conditions. Warning was also is
sued by the Council of Pharmacy
and Chemistry of the American
Medical Association, and by ed
itOrialS in the Journal of the Ameri-
can Medical Association against
the uncontrolled (not under medi-
cal supervisory use of the drug.
Despite these warnings dinitro-
phenOl has been used extensively
in the treatment of overweight and
not always with the necessary pre-
cautions. 1t is estimated that $500
patients in California alone were
treated in one year and that prob
ably 100000 persons have used the
drug in North America.
Big Demand for Drug.
Naturally there has been a big de-
mand for a. drug that will reduce
weight without cutting down on
the food intake and with no need
for exercise.
However, the other side Of the
picture shows that many individ-
uals are sensitive" to the drug
and are afflicted with skin erup-
tions more or less severe. And I'M
fortunately there does not seem to
be any means of knowing before
hand if the drug will cause trou-
BILE because skin tests are of no
use. Other disturbances due to the
drug were itching, swelling Of the
lining of mouth, nose and throat,
loss of smell and taste.
up to the present time six deaths
from dinitrophenol have been re-
ported. In two of these cases espe-
cially large doses were taken, but
in two others the amounts used
were not larger than those recon-
mended by Doctor Tainter and his

1t is therefore strongly advised

and diseases of the liver and heart,
should not be given the drug.

Restrictions on the use Of special
permits for the parking of cars OF
members Of Congress and Govern-
ment officials near Government bsild,
ings were adopted yesterday by the
District Commissioners on a recom-
mendation by Traffic Director William
A. Van Duzer. which bore the in-
dorsement of Police Superintendent
Ernest w. Brown.
Special permits hereafter are ID
be issued on an annual basis begin-
ming July l, and therefore will not
represent any pepetual right granted
to either Government workers OF
members of Congress
Also the new rule includes the
statement that "the new permits
shall permit holders thereof from
parking in the reserved official spaces
at the buildings in which they ara
employed"
There are now some $500 special
permits outstanding, about one-third
of which are classed as Inactive
Officials believe that in many cases
the holders no longer have Govern
ment jobs. Van Duzer said it was
obviously the intention of Congress
to proved spaces for officials who had
to transact business with other de-
partments rather than to provide
special parking places at their own
buildings.

Maj. Donovan and Lusby, who are
