THE HAGUE OPIUM AGREEMENT ' i A number of years before the unsuccessful opium con ference at Geneva in 11)21-5, there had been an international,1 meeting at The Hague and an agreement upon a curtain pro- J'r'" (ai1) with the signing ceduie. Article U of that agreement, to which tho United, miih ' Vsvrnor uMersonl'TiI" States was a party, pledged the signers "to limit the manu facture, sale and use of morphine, cocaine and their re spective salts to medical and legitimate uses only." Tin.1 United States has done a good deal toward carrving out that plan.
