adventure in the history of theChinese anti-opium campaign.Consisting of some eighteenmembers,ranking from the Chairman of the National Govern-ment to the representatives of the people's anti-opium bodies,the Committee is a body of anti-opium enthusiasts and attemptsto put a permanent end to the illicit production of,the traffie in,and the illicit use,of opium and other nareotic drugs.Althoughwe cannot as yet speak anything very definite about the futureof the Committee,considering the formidable difficulties thatstand on the way,yet the actual establishment of such anorganization,with the sole purpose to investigate into the drugproblem and to coordinate all Government forces throughoutthe country for the immediate and complete prohibition ofopium is no doubt a clear expression of absolute sincerity onthe part of the Government and marks the beginning of a newera in the history of the national anti-opium movement.Itwill be of singular interest,therefore,to study the why andthe how of this Opium Suppression Committee of the NationalGovernment.  \n## Why the Opium Suppression Committee?\n\nThe Opium Suppression Committee of the National Govern-ment was born by the need of the situation.Early in 1927,theNational Government had decided that opium should be com-pletely eradicated in the course of three years.This has beenknown as the Three Year Suppression Poliey of the NationalGovernment,and has been put to practice since August,1927.At first,thirteen provisional regulations were formulatedgoverning the control of opium used for suppression purpose.Three months later,a new set of regulations was proclaimed,and this was followed by another set in the beginning of April,1928.All these regulations,however,had the same emphasison the revenue that might be received from opium suppression,  \n—2—  \nthe task of suppression then being entirely invested in thehands of the Ministry of Finance.Financial diffleulties therewere of course,the Nationalists then being busily engaged inthe Northern Expedition,but the people cared for somethingmore than expediency.In December,1927,the first letterasking for a national opium suppression committee was sentby the National Anti-Opium Association to the Ministry ofFinance,saying that for a monthly income of only $600,000.00,the Government was losing a great deal with respect to themoral enthusiasm that gave birth to the revolutionary move-ment,ete.This request was followed by a petition to theNational Government offering a detailed plan for the organiza-tion of the contemplated opium suppression committee,for thetext of which the reader is referred to the March issue of theEnglish Quarterly Magazine,“Opium a Word Problem.”The main contention,as the reader may notice from therecommendation of the National Anti-Opium Association isthat no revenue sho","cbCaistCkES1VYnJ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaistCkES1VYnJ","pdf",736876,15,"English","# THE NATIONAL OPIUM SUPPRESSION COMMITTEE AND ITS
