Many cases have been brought to
the. attention of the Washington au

treatment from several physicians at
the same time.
It Is estimated by Federal officials
that the "underground" traffle in

Drug Smuggled Into Country.
For the most part it is believed
that they obtain their supplies from
Mexico or Can although smaller
quantities are obtained from unscru
puloum dealers in this country or by
theft. Smuggling is also praniosd
to a considerable extent on both the
Atlantic and Pacific- coasts, where
the drugs arrive on ships hailing
from the Orient and Europe.
The peculiar thing about the smug
ging ef drugs is that nearly all of
the drugs smuggled into this countrl
are shipped from this country after
manufacture by reputable firms and
find their way back again through
Illicit channels. It is believed the
headquarters for the national organi
sation or ring exists outside of the
United States and that the drugs are
obtained by them with the express
purpose of ,anding them back into
this country again for illegal sale.
This Illegitimate traffic has devel.
oped in recent years and is now a
serious menace. It is through these
channel, that the addict now obtains
the bulk of his supplies.
Opum Imports Increase.
A recent Government survey
Vhwed that while the population of
the United State@ was two-and-a-half
times as great in 1900 as In 1860 the
amount of opium entered for con
sumption annually was approximately
gve times as great. This is consid

one foreign country to another for

be used within the embassy, but that
greater amounts than should reason
ably be used are to be halted.

REORGNIZATION
Wants Education Board SNamed
by Commissioners and Asks
Other Remedies.
A program of reorganisatlon for the
District school system was presented
to the joint congressioal investigat
ing committee today by Superinten
dent of schools Balou.
The reorganisation Includes the ap
polntnent of a board of education by
the District Commissioners. a new
system of supervising principals, 4nd
a principal attached to every school
house unit. a business manager for
the schools, a school census. and a
compulsory education law joined to
the Inspection of private schools.
Superintendent Ballou made an in
formal statement to the committee
covering the local school situation
generally. He denied reports that
there was friction between the board
of education and the District Comms
sloners. and declared that the personal
relations existing between the two
were entirely harmonious.
"This 'harmony does not always
prevail." he paid, "and in that case
the District schools are bound to suf
for. In the past there has been
many instances of the baleful effect
of this divided authority."
Commissioner James F. Oyster re
newed his old-time feud with Snow
den Ashford, former Municipal Archi
tect, at the hearing today. He re
ferred to the work of the Municipal
Architect's office under the Ashford
regimer "the work of boneheada,"
and da in detail the troubles
over the location of the Business and
McKinley high schools and the
Powell elementary school. He said
Ashford's blunders had cost the Dio
trit many thousand of dollarv.
"'The board of education didn't have
Influence enough with the District
Commissioners at that time to stop
these mistaked," said Captain Oyster.
"There is no doubt that the board of
education ought to have more power,
narticularly with reference to the
location of sites and construction of
school buildings."
Major Brown, assistant to the engi
neer commissioner, told the subcom
mittee how school sites were selected
by him, declaring that he consulted
fully with the District assessor's office
as to land priose and with the board
of 4ducation on the advisability of
school locations.
After Captain Oyster had made his
statement. Superintendent Ballou
made a hurried summary of the pres
ent needs of the school system here.
