d the export of such opium to countries which restrict 253
jort is limited strictly in accordance with their
wirements. No "prepared opium" is exported; and there is
export trade in "medicinal opium", or cocaine. As regards yopium", which is the only article of this class of
erial importance to India, the Convention does not
bee upon importing countries any obligation to limit their
rts to the quantities required "exclusively for legitimate jcinal or scientific purposes", nor does it stipulate
exporting countries shall require, as a condition precedent
crmitting export, a certificate, in the terms stated above,
ed under the authority of the Government of the country
hoort. The Convention was framed with the object of
ing about the gradual suppression of the abuse of ocium";
Be practical measures embodied in the Convention, and con-
þed sufficient to attain that end, are much less drastic
those now suggested for adoption by India..
Apart from this, even if exports from India were
led to the quantities required for "legitimate medicinal
ientific purposes" it will be appreciated that unless
producing countries - notably Turkey and Persis
ŝively limited exports to the same extent, the object
at would not be attained.
