Speaking in an optimistic vein over tlu- results that hail been achieved In I eradicating the pernicious drug habit in this country since the enactment of the Harrison narcotic law. 1$. W Andrews, assistant counsel to the pro hibition commissioner, addressed the j members of tiie American I harma- j utl. il Association of Washington at | fio* National College of Pharmacy last , nijstit. ?, .1 ' Mr Andrews outlined in detail the j lork that had been accomplished by Lhe internal revenue d* part::i>" lit. ana 1- t onlv i laimed that ther. were few r drug addicts in the country at pres nt than t rie, two or liv, > cira ago. u; confl l. nt.y predicted that at the ate government agents were proceed ng the insidious habit that up to i 1 4. when the Harrison law was fn icted. was l ist undermining the life tnii manhood of America, would be .vipcd out entirely during the present jenerat ion. Itrnien l'rohlbition Brings Incrrwr. H. Iso denied the oft-repeated statement that the enactment of the ;Tohibition law had caused many :?ers of alcohol to seek narcotics as relief, and said lhat the consensus ?.! opinion among reputable physicians who had been Interviewed on the sub- j Vet was that there was nothing in statistics to prove that such was the case. After explaining the regulations for the enforcement of the amendment recently added to I he Harrison nar c 'tic law Mr Andrews allowed him self to be quizzed by those present, and for fully three hours minor de tails of the act were discussed by | the members of the association. The bone of the contention dwelt mostly on the interpretation of the regulation relating, to the execution of prescriptions l?y druggists. Ac cording to the amended law the drug gist who tills a prescirption will show on the back thereof the signa ture and address of the person who secures the drug or preparation pre scribed and must preserve the pre scription for a period of two years from the date indicated thereon. It was held by S. h. Hilton, local druggist, that the procuring of the .signature of the user was not only valueless to those tracing violators of the law. but wn_< embarrassing to many reputable people and was a great waste of time. A|;rrt Regulation* Beneficial. After a prolonged argument, in which W. H. Bradbury, managet of the Washington Wholesale Drug Ex change: Dr. H. K. Kalusowski. pro fessor of pharmacy at George Wash ington University: I>r. Franconi and "harniaey Inspectors Saunders and Reiss ]?trtook. it was finally agTeed that, while some of the new regula tions seemed drastic so far as the druggist was concerned, they were beneficial as a whole and those who used common sense and good judg ment would have nothing to fear. F. E. Lewton presided in the ab sence of A. G. Du Mez, president of the association, who had been sum moned to New York to testify in a drug smuggling case. UNFAIRNESS IS CHARGED IN U. S. SHIPPING POLICY President of British Chamber Cites Strength of American Mercantile Marine. LONDON, February 25.?In the course of an address to the British chamber of shipping today W. J. No ble. president of the chamber, allud ing to American shipping competition, said it was a mistake to underesti mate the growing strength of the American mercantile marine. The shipbuilding potentialities of the L'nited States, said Mr. Noble, justified Americans in hoping thai they might ultimately occupy a supreme position in shipping. They already had acou- : mulated a fleet of more than y.OOO.OOO tons. The speaker added that the rise of the American mercantile fleet was one of the world's facts of the war and it was changing aJl the old trade relations. Great Britain was prepared to meet any fair competition, but he thought no one could regard the present policy of the United States Shipping Board or of the British dominions as fair competition. It would appear to be the policy of both, he declared, to build up a mercantile marine at any i cost, relying upon the national purse to make good any deficiency, which was a serious menace to all private enterprise. Mr. Nobl/> asserted that American coal was being put free aboard steam ers at a price under 30 shillings per ton. as against the present British figure of lot) shillings per ton. At this present disparity in prices, he said, the l'nited States could capture the whole of the British markets and even supply l^ondon on better terms than could Northumberland and Durham. The speaker made a strong plea for a complete restoration of commercial and civil liberty. He said govern ment control had been a huge fail ure?that it was paralyzing, extrav agant and wasteful. EFFICIENT GOVERNMENT DECLARED U. S. NEED j Congress 100 Years Behind Times, Franklin D. Roosevelt Tells > ? Harvard llnion. j CAMBRIDGE. Mass., February 26 ? [ If the party leaders would talk less of I ICeorge Washington and devote more at tention to the problem of efficient gov i ernmental administration they would j-be of more service to their country. As sistant Secretary of the Navy Franklin il>. Roosevelt said last night in an ad ! dress at the Harvard Union. i "The United States government as a whole is the least etlicient administra j live body that we have in this coun I try." Mr. Roosevelt said. "I mean the legislative and executive branches. 'As an example. 1 mean Congress. It 'is 100 years behind the times in the I way things are done. 1 wonder how i many of you read the Congressional Record. I read it in the same spirit as I read I.ife or London I'unch. It gives j me keen joy." I Mr. Roosevelt did not blame either party for the eorditions against which i he complained, although he accused them of cowardice in "ducking issues." He condemned especially the New York Mute republican party lor failing to take a definite stand in favor of uni versal military training at its conven tion last week and pr. dieted that the rli mocmtic slate convention would also dodge the issue.
