the city council last evening pfteead
1 an ordinance prohitnting the sale of
'ethyl alcohol by drug stores except
upon the written prescription of a

This ordinance is designed to check
I the heavy traffic in alcohol which
has resulted from the provision In the
. prohibition law making it possible to
(secure alcohol upon an affidavit that
as intended for external use
Druggists and officers have been
aware thai men have not hesitated
I to perjure themselves in order to se-
mre the alcohol for niternal use and
the big majority of cases of lntoxtca-
1 1 ion have resulted from this traffic.
The druggists have complained that
they have been unable to distinguish
I between those who want the nlcohol
I lor legitimate purposes and those who
want 11 for unlawful purposes. There
lore, they asked the ordinance for
i their own protection and it was passed
' unanimously.
The committee appointed a Weak
