" CHICAGO. Sept. MO i by \ssociated
Press).—-Municipal dispensation of
drugs through narcotic clinics is gen
erally conceded to have been a fail
ure. reports a committee on narcotic
drugs and crime appointed by the
American Institute of Criminal Law
ami Criminology.
The report was written by Dr. L.
L. Stanley, resident physician of the
California State Prison at San Quen
tin. for presentation a tlhe twelfth
anr.ual meeting of the titute at In
dianapolis.
Dr Stanb'V adds thal "probable no
more municipalities will establish
clinics of this type.”
Government monopoly of the nuin
ifacture of opium derivatives is re. -
n
lev urges that it be "put on a plan
somewhat similar to the minting of
money."
Narcotic drug clinics cited by Dr.
Stanley are those established at New
I f » l 1\ , .V W V / X 1' Ulle. JA/." - * J~) ' •
and San Diego. Ho characterizes
the failure of the Now York clinic
which closed early this year alter
eleven months of operation, as "one
of the two outstanding features in
ihe past two years' developments in
regard to the drug addiction prob
lem.”
Reasons fur the discontinuance of
the New York clinic are thus sum
marized in the report:
drug addicts who attended the clinic
for their narcotics, less than two
thousand wore willing to go to a hos
pital for treatment, with ultimate
cure in sight. The officials of the
department wore convinced that il
was not the proper procedure to
give narcotics drugs to addicts for
self-administration.
“Some addicts sold the excess ob
tained at the clinic to peddlers.
There was fraud in obtaining the
drug. Friends of addicts became Iiad
itues through associations with bene
ficiaries of the clinic. With very
few exceptions, ■no cures were known
to have been effected by means of
the reduction system used. Ambula
tory treatment was found to be vi
cious in principle and in effect; there
v is no need for prolonging addiction
by a continued supply of narcotics."
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
rio 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."

WASHINGTON. Sept. 20 (by As
sociated Press).—Lack of pasturage
for dairy cattle in the vicinity of
Nitro, West Ya., resulted in the es
Nitro, West Virginia, resulted in the
establishment at that war-built city
of a "mechanical dairy" where milk
and cream equivalent to the output
of a farm with 1,500 milk cows was
produced, according to a government’
report just published. Bottles and j i
cans of the fluid were labeled "re-!
constructed” milk or cram and “ni-!
t rolac.”
Accomodations for 25 n00 inhabi
tants were provided at Nitro schools.;
churches, hospitals. department stores j
and restaurants and all the other ele-j
ments of a modern, well-equipped
cuttmunin 1»- i:tg part of the project.1
' As a construction pioblem it wa • j
j began to strik-. snags as soon as they I
i comparitively simple, hut officials
j approached the task of insuring a
supply of staple food stuffs, particu-; ■
larly of fresh milk.
Nitro is situated in a mountainous
district where little if -any natural
i pasturage is available. Local milk
supplies were barely sufficient to
satisfy the normal demands of;
I Charlestown, the nearest metropolis.!
- expansion of the natural supply be-1
ing out of the question, the public
j health service was asked for aid and

The process used is described as;
the “emulsification of butter fat oh-;
tained from unsalted butter in a so-,
luted evaporated milk.” A building.)

ON NORTHWEST COAST
SEATTLE, Sept. 30.—Alaska and :
• North Pacific coast waters have yield- j
| ed a salmon harvest valued at $60,- j
i 410,000 during' the present season.
This revised estimated pack was
compiled by the Pacific Canned Fish
Brokers’ Association, maintaining
I headquarters in Seattle. The vast
significance of the 1920 harvest may
be observed by the fact that this esti
mated pack involves a grand total of
6.055.000 cases containing 290,640,000
one-pound cans.
| These figures represent the seasons
| canning operations in the waters of
' Alaska, British Columbia. Columbia
river and Puget sound. Alaska comes ;
to the front with the biggest pack—]
i i 4.225,000 cases. British Columbia |
f canneries packed l.ot)o,oo0 cases, the j
Columbia river canned 050,000 cases,]
while ISO,nun cases wore canned on j
Puget sound. The* varieties of salmon ■
. canned in western, central and south
eastern Alaska were as follows: Red'
salmon, 1,490.000 cases; kings. 85,000;
cohoes, lll.ooo cases; pinks. 1,572,000
cases, and chums, 967,000 cases.
British Columbia’s pack is; Sock
eves. 300,000 eases; pinks, 500,000
leases; springs, 75.000 eases; cohoes,
75.000 cases, and chums, 50,000 eases,
. I Puget sound’s pack was: Sockeyes,
I j uU.Utju cases; springs, 50,000 cases;
t i cohoes. 25,000 cases, and chums, 25,
i 000 cases.
The value of this combined pack is
| based on opening Jnlv salmon prices,
!
j f. o. b. cars at local terminals. The
1 1919 salmon pack in these districts
. ! aggregated $76,907,525, a total in ex
j cess of the present year. This de
) cline. however, is explained by the
( lower prices in existence this year
; and also to the fact that less of the
! higher priced salmon was canned this
3 !
| season than in last year.
