MONDAY, SEPT. 13, 1920 ~T CITY HANDLING ‘ OF DRUGS SAID TO BR FAILURE Report of Experts Says Munici- pal Clinics Are Conceded to Be Failures’ es ASK GOVT MONOPOLY Chicago, Sept. 18—Municipal dis- pensation of drugs through narcotic drug clinics is generally conceded to have been a> failure, reports a com- mittee on narcotic drugs and crime appointed by the American Institute of Criminal Law and Criminology. The report was written by Dr. L L. Stanley, resident physician of the California State Prison at San Quen- tin, for presentation at the twelfth annual meeting of the institute at In- dianapolis September 16-18. Ugre Gov't. Control. Dr. Stanley adds that “probably no more municipalities will establish clinics of this type.” Government monopoly of the man- ufacture of opium derivatives is rec- ommended in the report. Dr, Stanley urges that it be “put on a plan some- what similar to the minting of mon- ey.” Narcotic drug clinics cited by Dr Stanley are those established at New York, New Orleans, Los Angeles and San Diego. He characterizes the fail- ure of the New York clinic, which closed early this year after eleven months’ operation, as “one of the two outstanding features in the past two years’ developments in regard to the drug addiction problem.” Reasons for the discontinuance of the New York clinic are thus sum- marized in the report: Fraud in Clinies. “It was found that of the 7,400 drug addicts who attended the clinic for their narcotics, less than 2,000 were willing to go to a hospital for treat- ment, with ultimate cure in sight. The officials of the department were con- vinced that it was not the proper pro- cedure to give narcotic drugs to ad- dicts for self-admijnistration. “Some addicts sold the excess ob- tained at the clinic to other addicts or peddlers. There was fraud in ob- taining the drug. Friends of addicts became habitues through association with beneficiaries of the clinic. With very few exceptions, no cures were known to have been effected by means of the reduction system used. Ambulatory treatment was found to be vicious in principle and in ef- fect; there is no need for prolonging | addiction by a continued supply of harcatics.” * Harrison Law Only Ald. With the failure of the clinics and the aroused interest in narcotic drug addictions, continues the report, the question arises, What are you going to do about it? “There seems to be no concerted effort to deal with it as the government has dealt, with alco- holic liquors,” says Dr. Stanley. “The manufacture, transportation and dis- tribution of narcotics has not been curtailed, except as to dispensing by the Harrison Law.” YOUNG LEADERS IN JAPAN TAKE LIBERAL VIEWS Liberaltistic Tendencies Are Distihet Feature of Diet Sessions Tokio, Sept. 13—The liberatisti«: tendencies of the specches in this year’s session of the Diet has been 4 distinct feature of constitutional de- velopment in Japan. ‘The leader of ‘he moyement is a young representa- tive named Ryutaro Nagai whose boldness of word has attracted ‘the attention of the empire. In the rail- road train, at public meetings, wher- ever meén gather the name of Nag: on the lips of Japanese as a “coming man.” Nagai was. formerly a professor at Waseda university, the most demo- cratic of Japan’s universities which was founded by that heroic radical leader, Marquis Okuma. The young man_is a great believer in the demo- cratic development of Japanese po- litical institutions and is an, admirer of both the British parliament and the American Congress. He is de- scribed as a man of remarkable or- atorial talents who, will be heard from later in modernized “Japan. But the young orator came to grief in a maiden speech in the House of Representatives when during an at- tack on the cabinet he called Premier Hara “the autocratic Lenine of Ja- pan.” The governmental majority had him sent to the discipiinary com- mittee which suspended him for five days from the sittings of the house The incident caused members of the opposition party to hold an “in- dignation” meeting in a Tokio hall tor the purpose of “protecting free- dom of speech and personal rights.” Many policemen were present and finally stopped the meeting alto- gether. Mr. Nagai was given a great ovation. He insisted that a thorough regeneration of the representatives pu e ASL A Tee eG Ca eek High Grade Salesmen Wanted E want men to sell Willys Light.

BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE of the people in the Diet was really more imperative than a change in the cabinet for, he said, the standard of the Diet must be raised. , Of free speech he said: “Japan has in the past shown her wonderful ca- pacity for assimilation as may be seen from the Japanization of Budd- hism and Confucianism and from the fact that Christianity is also in the same process of assimilation. With such glaring object lessons before us an attempt to prevent new ideas from taking hold of the people by the sup- pression of speech must be ‘as de- scribed as ignorance of the great na- tional characteristics and an insult to the power of assimilation of the Jap: anese people.” AMERICANS ARE THE VICTIMS OF BALKAN GREED Overcharge for Passports in Travelling From One Coun- try to Another Budapest, Sept. 13—Tne cost 21 travel for Americans in Central Eu- rope and Balkan countries is reach- ing extortionate proportions through the tendency to charge Americans the same price for passport vises as that of’ the American government foi foreigners, which recently was in- creased from $1 to $10. If this tend- ency is continued, an American in the course of a few days’ journey passing several frontiers, may have to pay $30 to $50 in vises. Germans Lead. For travellers oi ali nationalities. however, the charge has been rapidly increasing during the past 6 months. The. Germans began the high charg- es, demanding $5. Then Austria fol- lowed suit with the same charge anc Hungary and other countries have been obliged’ to make like charges Because of the huge revenue so ob- tainable, passports are severely ex- amined, more so than in war time. Under pretext of obstructing bol- shevik travel, guards at frontiers ruthlessly turn back travellers with- out proper vises. Wait 8 Months; Go 150 Miles. Because of this unneignborly prac- tice, it is difficult for citizens of x forcign country to pass homeward. Budapest is now full of thousands 01 people who, under the new frontiers fixed by the peace conference, are subjects of Rumania or Jugo-Slavia but can not get passport vises home to their property. In one instance Americans used their good offices to get vises for two widows, formerly Hungarians but whose farms are now in Serbia. They had waited eigh months to get permission to travel 150 -miles. The office of American High Com. missioner Grant-Smith at Budapest is daily desieged by hundreds of peo- ple who wish to go to America or to secure help to reach their homes in Czecho-Slovakia, or other countries HIGHWAY WORK IN WARD COUNTY IS GOING FORWARD not, Sept. 1 ..-The contractor has started work on the state and federal aid project east of the city to the McHenry county line. He started at a point three miles east of Minot and will work eastward until snow flies. All culverts will be put in this fall and winter so that the work of completing the road in the spring cd be rushed. There is so much heavy hauling at the present time within hree miles of the city on this road that the county officials felt that it would be waste of time and effort to build that portion until this heavy hauling is done this fall. The state and federal aid project between Burlington and Foxholm has been surveyed by the engineers ol the state highway commission. It is expected that plans and spec as tions for this. important highway wil) be ready before spring for letting. and that the work will commence early next summer on this road. The county commissioners have built a splendid road up the Mouse River valley on the east side of the river from Burlington north and northeast. All that the road needs now is the road planer to put it jin first class condition for the winter, SCORN McCORMACK ANTHEM OMISSION Adelaide, South Australia, Sept. 13 —The concert given’ here Thursday evening by John McCormack, the tenor, was broken up by a demon- stration, a part of the audience ris ing and singing the British national anthem and some of them shouting that McCormack was a Sinn Feiner Mr. McCormack has cancelled _the other concerts he was to have given in Adelaide. : The audience, it appeared, resented the omission of the anthem from the program.
