Blue Added te Committee
Though Mrs. Wright Is net en the
committee as an American, there will
be two Americans present at the Jan
uary 8 meeting in Geneva.
upon Inquiry at the State Depart
ment confirmation of the appointment
of Rupert Blue, formerly surgeon gen
eral of the Public Health Service, was
given the Puni.ie Lkdeeiu It was
said General Blue was new In Lnu

Ien American expert en sanitary and
health measures in ports hheuiu tnese

same status en the Opium Committee
as Miss Grace Abbett, who was recently
appointed bjr this Government an "un
official member" of the Lengue of Nn Nn

and Children.
It is difficult in a brief nrtlrlc te go
into the question with any adequacy,
but having been present at the uwem
blv and fifth cemmitter meetings in
Geneva Insv Scpteinbcr'when tbe opium
question was discu.teeu and voted upon,
the writer is able te report what the
permanent Advisory Committee Is ex
pected te take up at the meeting In
which Mrs Wrleht and General Blue
will participate.
Scope of Committee's Inquiry
The assembly passed the following
resolution en September 10:
"The assembly Inclines te the view
that the governments which are parties
te tbe International Opium Convention
should be asked te agree net te Isaue
licenses for the import of opium or the
ether drugs te which the convention
applies from any country which has
net yet ratified and put into force tbe
convention and ndepted the system for
the control of experts and imports ap
prever ey tne aecena assembly,
"The assembly Is of the opinion that
the matter should be examined In de
tail by the Advisory Committee en Traf
fic in Opium before any definite action
Is taken. - It therefore requests tbe
council te convene a meeting of the
Advisory Committee us Boen aa peuslble
te study tbe question, and should that
committee report In favor of the pro
posal, the council Is asked te act at
tbe earliest possible date en the recom
mendations of tbe Advisory Committee
in the form approved by the ceunctl and
without further refereuce te tbe assem
bly If the council considers such ref
erence unnecessary."
What' Mrs. Wright believes eucht te
be done, however, as the only means of
stepping the debauchery of the human
race by the growing dmg evil, is
for each Government te determine what
are its legitimate medicinal needs for
drugs and te send that Information te
an international committee. Then that
