Three Doctors
Face Narcotics
Quiz Thursday
Turnoee Will Hear
Charges of Drug
Sales to Addicts

Three Washington physicians,
seized yesterday by Federal mar
cotics authorities following a seven
month investigation. will have
hearing before United States Com
missioner Needham c. Turnage at
pm. Thursday.
All three are we'll known here.
The Federal Bureau of Narcotics
listed the men as:
DR.. Gaius Marcus Brumbaugh, 81,
of 905 Massachusetts, avenue NV
noted genealogist and author of
numerous technical books; arraigned
last night.
DR.. Thomas Austin Poole, 10, 3610
0 street NV. an internationally
known specialist in sinus infections;
arraigned last night.
| DR.. Holmer K. Butler, So of 1915
Pennsylvania avenue Sc; arraigned
today.
Under $500 Bonds.
The three are specifically charged
with selling morphine not in ac-
cordance with professional practice.
Following their arrest by Federal
agents, they were booked at police
| headquarters. They we're released
on $500 bond each.
According to Leroy w Morrison,
agent in charge of the Washington
Office of the Bureau of Narcotics,
/ the physicians had been selling to
known drug addicts over a long
period. Addicts would go to the
doctors Offices and buy "so-called
morphine prescriptions" Mr.. Nor
rison said. The prescriptions"
would range in price from 81 to SIS.
Norcotic agents, posing as addicts.
bought prescriptions from all three
physicians. Mr. Morrison said. He
claimed one doctor was known to
be serving addicts who had been
treated at Public Health Service
institutions in Texas and Kentucky
and who then returned to WASH
ington seeking the drug.
The bureau pointed out that the
investigation had been under way
for seven months as part of drive
to eliminate illegal drug traffic.
Drugs have become scarce because
of the demands of the armed serv-
ices, it was said.
Profession Helps Curb Traffic.
B. M. Martin, district supervisor
of the bureau, said the bureau had
the finest cooperation" of the
medical profession here in connec-
ton with the control of drugs.

Salaries range from $1,000 for be-
ginners in the bureau to $4,000.
The main reason for the shortage
of women with the required training
is that many of them have gone to
work in agencies or companies that
seemed more directly connected with
the war, said Capt Milliken.
Need Increasing.
She gave examples of potential
policewomen working at non-profes-
sional, routine jobs in Government
agencies and factories. Another
drain on the supply of trained So
cial workers has come from the ac-
tive recruiting policy of the Red
Gross and other organizations who
send these workers overseas.
With the need for policewomen
in wartime Washington increasing,
Capt. Milliken said, it is important
that women who could qualify for
the police posts utilize their train
ing rather than perform jobs that
require only four weeks to six
months training.

The national shortage of 10000

of the Districts lack of policewomen,

Gas RatiOns Don't Go
With Car Transfers

No 1914 automobile licenses,
and no gas ration coupons, will
be issued for cars transferred af-
ter Jan. /, until the new owners
present receipt showing the for
mer owners surrendered all their
unused gasoline coupons to their
local war price and rationing board
at the time they sold the cars.
Because of the acute gasoline
shortage this strict rule is abso-
lutely necessary to prevent thous-
ands of gallons of gasoline from
going into black market channels
instead of being rationed for le-
gitimate civilian use.
The ruling applies to motor We
hicles of all types, passenger cars,
commercial vehicles and trucks.
In the case of motor vehicles
sold by dealers, receipt also must
be obtained by the new owner.
Between Jan. / and IL, all dealers
must file with local boards a list
of cars and trucks on hand for
resale. The boards will issue re-
ceipts which will be passed on to
the buyers, who must show it to
get new automobile licenses and
gasoline ration books.

PatrOlman Gives Talk
On Highway Safety

In 1910 there were more cit
liens killed in car accidents than
have been killed in the present
war to date, Patrolman Ray John
son told members of the Kenne-
wick Kiwanis club today.
Gas and tire rationing has cut
down highway speeds, Johnson
said, until the number of deaths
from traffic accidents has been cut
to about 200 month. However,
the death rate from highway &C
cidents is still far and away above
what it should be, he said.
He said there were four pri-
mary reasons for the high accident
rate: First, people do not back up
properly worked out plans fol-
safety; second, defeatism and ig-
norance; third, the human element
the driver; and fourth, insuffi-
cient funds for planning and re.
search.
He said fraction of the acct
dent cost would provide several
times the amount necessary for all
expense involved in safety cam
paign. He urged much closer at
tention to rules and regulations on
the part of all drivers.

After a short convalescence
