(3).

The sale of medicinal opium, of morphine, of

any alkaloid or constituent of opium, of coca, cocaine, and all

its derivatives, and of the preparations of any strength of the

above mentioned substances, has been so drastically regulated ae

to prevent as much as is possible, any abuse and ill-effect

arising from the administration, of these drugs.

The sale of Heroin and other derivatives of

morphine or cocaine is restricted se a poison under the Pharmacy

Ordinance. No necessity has yet arisen to legislate specially for

these poisons, but the matter is engaging attention.

(4).

A system of very large rewards has been

established for seizures or information leading to seizures of

opium, morphine, etc., which is being handled in an illegal

manner for purposes of smuggling.

(5).

The definition of opium divan is widened

in the Ordinance referred to above with a view to strengthening

the hands of the Police in dealing with the opening of such

Divans, which since the lat, of March, 1910, has been illegal.

(6). The use of prepared opium is further dis- couraged by the advance in price for which it is sold under

the Monopoly system, The price is now $5.50 a tael prepared

opium and $2.50 a tael for drosa opium,

(7). With a view to possible improvement in the

control of the purchase of prepared opium, this Government has

under consideration a scheme for taking the opium monopoly into

its own hands from the lst. of March, 1914.
