Report by the Government of Greece for the year 1929 on the traffic in ooiurn and other dangerous drugs. NOTE BY THE SECRETARY-GENERAL The Secretary-General has the honour to circulate the attached report for the information of the States Members and ncn-Members of the League, end the Advisory Committee on Traffic in Opium and other Dangerous Drugs. its establishment un+_il the er3 of 1929 . With a view to applying the provisions of the Geneva Opium Convention, signed on February 19th, 19 25 and subsequently ratified by Law 4175 of June I7 th, 1929, the compstent departments of the Ministries ef Finance and Public Health considered it expedient to establish a Fa root ic Drugs Monopoly by conferring on the State the sole right to import and sell narcotic drugs and power to exercise supervision over; 1. The production of opium within the country, 2 , The transit trade in raw opium through the Free Zone of Salonika, 3» The consumption of narcotic drugs furnished by the Stats Monopoly to pharmacists and heads of clinics and hospitals, 4. The intensive campaign against the snuggling of drags. The Dec re e-Law of October 14th, 1925, ’’concerning the Monopoly in narcotic drugs’*, was promulgated in execution of the foregoing programme and came into force on September 1st, 19 25 „ Aft or this date, all imports of narcotic drags and their transit or transshipment at Greek ports were prohibited, The despatch of ns"1 -otics by parcel post or as "samples without value" from foreign countries to persons in Greece was also made illegal. The greatest vigilance is exercised in this respect ; any articles discovered arc d estroyed and criminal proceedings instituted vainst the consignees where the parcel is believed to have been despatched with their knowledge. -3 — The opium poppy (P^osvor somniferum) msy not bo gro'vn in Groses unloss c, permit is obtained from tho competent ophorr-.lt37, stating tho ores to bo cult ivetod in strommato. end the estimated output of opium. The amount of the opium crop must also bo declared to tho same authority and is kept under supervision until its export cbrocd, hitherto carried out via tho Free Zone- of Sa Ion ice.. Further, immediately after tho comin3 into force of tho Dscroe-Law concerning narcotic drugs, pharmacists were required to doclaro and register the quantities of drugs hold by them nnd wore then given a period of throe months within which to soli or export their stocks. On tho expiration of this period, narcotics remaining in their possession had to bo hended over to the Treasury through the ophorc.ltios, compensation being paid for the drugs at a rate determined by the Presidents of the Courts of first instance. At the same time, tho Stats Monopoly provided pharmacists with fresh stocks of narcotic drugs on tho basis of special permits issued by the Ministry of Public Health and indicating tho annual quantity of each drug which the pharmacist was entitled to obtain from the State Monopoly according to the grade in which his business had been classified by the Supreme Council for Public Health. Each pharmacist is given two books, in on : of which records are kept of each purchase of narcotic drugs from the Monopoly and in the other of drugs supplied by the pharmacist, those being given only on a medical proscription. Severe penalties are inflicted on persons who fail to observe these regulations. Stocks of narcotic drugs handed over, as described above by those in possession of them, to the Treasury remain under seal with the authorities pending a decision as to their disposal. The view generally taken is that those drugs should -A— "bn examined ond sorted o u t.

CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL DATA The immediate precursor of heroin is morphine, and morphine is obtained from opium. Opium is the dried milky juice (latex) obtained from the unripe seed pods of Papaver somniferum L., more commonly referred to as the opium poppy or oil poppy. Morphine has also been reported to be present in Papaver setigerum, and as a minor alkaloid in Papaver decaisnei and Papaver rhoeas. However, there is no known instance of these poppies being used for opium production, and work that is more recent has cast considerable doubt as to the presence of morphine in Papaver rhoeas. A major review by Kapoor on the botany and chemistry of the opium poppy is recommended additional reading. Opium latex is obtained from the seed capsule of the poppy while the capsule is still in the green stage, usually seven or more days after flowering and petal fall. Physically, the opium latex is contained within laticiferous vessels, which lie just beneath the epicarp of the seed capsule. The latex is harvested by making a series of shallow incisions through the epicarp, which allows the latex to "bleed" onto the surface of the seed capsule. Most commonly, the latex is allowed to partially dry on the capsule surface, and is then removed by scraping the capsule with specially designed hand tools.

EDDY, M.D.,1' HANS FRIEBEL, Dr. med.,2 KLAUS-JORGEN HAHN, Dr. med.3 & HANS HALBACH, Dr. med. Dr.-Ing.4 This report-thefirst ofa series on codeine and its alternates for pain and cough relief- presents a detailed evaluation of experimental and clinical data concerning the analgesic action of codeine (the antitussive action will be assessed separately). The authors discuss the pharmacology of the drug, including side-effects and toxicity; effects on the respiratory, circulatory, digestive and urinary systems; tolerance, dependence and liability to abuse; metabolic effects; and mechanism ofaction. Though codeine is generally more toxic than morphine to animals on account of its convulsant action, it is less toxic to man, possibly because it produces less respiratory depression. Again, tolerance to its analgesic effects has been demonstrated in several animal species, but dependence in man is observedfar less frequently than it is with morphine, and the abstinence syndrome is less intense. From their extensive review of the evidence available, the authors conclude that codeine is a good analgesic and that little risk to public health is likely to arise from its clinical use to relieve pain.
