The Prohibition Bureau cannot change the regulation of one pini of liguor within 10 days for each patient, however, Dr. Doran_explained, as that is written into the law and cannot be made_elastic. The great difference of opinion among physicians is shown graphically by figures in the Prohibition Bursau on prescription books. The accounts for the past year have not yet been tabulated and finished, as there was a change in the prescription system and new books were issued, all old ones being called in. This has complica the statistical work. It is believed officials, how that ths genera practice of p ans today is similar to that of 19 A majority living in States which_ allow prescription liquor do not prescribe liquor at all. the figures for 1927 show. Of those who do pre- scribe less than a third use their quota of 400 prescriptions a year. There were 149,521 registered physi- cians in the United States in 192 according to records. This figure in. v cluded doctors in 22 States which forbid use of liguor as medicine. Few Use Four Books. In the remaining States there were 116.756 physicians, of wh only 48,098 cbtained prescription books. Gf the physiclans who obtained pre- scription books only 13,545 used their full quota; 10,861 used three books; 8,733 used two books, and 14,948 who used only one book, or less. Inquiry among Washington druggists disclosed a feeling that the Prohibition | Bureau’s regulations concerning pre- scription liquor were fair ‘and well| administered. Dr. Doran’s policies in this regard were praised by Paul Pear- con, president of the Washington Drug- gists Association.
