Bng Called Dipors, Dr. Wiley A) pliffl Above Term. t- Wsshingtcn. March 22. -Dr. Harvey W.Wiley, a parinasa ri 'ale citizen before the (a u food board in advocacy of a regohtion guarding very strictly the Use and jale of opium, morphine, coc tine and other habit-fbrmirg drugs, aroused the anger, of drug repre am a Uvea by referring to tfcema "dopera. ', . A heated argument eniued and for a moment it lockdd as if blows might I e passed. After several interchanges Dr. Wiley consented to withiraw tin ?rm "dopers," but said he w6uld sti.l insist on calling them "manufacturers of poi tm." ' For that," he added, "is whatynu yourselves are willing to have these drugs and preparations containir g hem called." j r. As soon as the form ir chief chemist h d ussd the word "dopera," John J, Queens, of St. Louis, a manufacturer of saccharin, was on his feet object ing. "We came here1," he declared, "to be given a hearing; wd are respectable m inufactniers and we do not want to be insulted. I think the board should compel Dr. Wi.'ey to withdraw his re mark." 1 refit to withdraw it," c me bat k the do t r. Hut after further discussion by sever ol pres nr, with whom he paid he had had phasant relations, Dr. Wiley m.di (ltd his language. The representatives of the drug maim acturar argued that ixception should be made of preparations contain ing O ily small pnrliciu of opium, mor phine, cocaine and other diugs named. They held th it there were so mtny of the e preparti n? scattered though amill drug stores all over the country, that it would require years nd be a heavy ex pense for the m inufacturers to hi ve aM m irked with skulls and cross boi es as the regulati n of the pure food board woukl require. Dr. Wiley declared that the martu facturers who hud bei n making the proM net sh-ld ay whatever costs were necessary to protect the public from the d-ug habit "My I aFk whom you represent," said Mr Hough, of St, Louis, when Dr. Wiley appeared. "I represent one private citizen," was the teply, "something new at these bearings, but which, I hope, will be frequent in the future. "At to the drug manufacturers' ar gument that small quantities of opiurr, morphine are not harmful, it wou'd take a million Hague opium conferences to convincs me that the small amounts should be allowed. No! ring is better than small doses a a m ana . of foster ing the drug habit." Dr. A. R. Dohme', of Baltimore re presenting the National Association of Manufacturers of Medical Products, re eomratnded that a law be pished plac ing control of the drugs objected to in tb hands of the internal revenue ofBce, thus doing away with thev necessity of a regulation which he declared was im practical and expensive. ;',Do you like a missioji fiti i&h? :Thcn our Monastery &tairi8 . will .suit your taste, BP; S.
