Bill No. 37 of 1933. A BILL TO AMEND THE ALBERTA PHARMACEUTI CAL ASSOCIATION ACT. NOTE.

Section 2 of this Bill confers upon the association the power to assist any organization having for its objects the interests or welfare of members of the association.

Section 3 of the Bill strikes out the word "fees" in

section 18 of the Act.

Section 4 of the Bill substitutes a judge of the Supreme Court for a judge of the District Court as the judge to hear appeals against the striking off by the Council of a member of the Association.

Section 5 of the Bill amends certain of the provisions of the Act as to the qualification for admission to the associa tion and for the registration as members of the association of persons who are the members of similar associations else where than in the Province of Alberta, and enables the council to decline to recognize any association which does not admit members of this association on equally favourable terms.

Section 6 of the Bill inserts in the Act an express prohibi tion against the sale by persons other than those persons who are expressly authorized so to do by the Act of poisons, drugs or medicines except patent medicines and except the drugs specified therein, but provides that nothing in the

section is to prevent any person selling poisons, drugs or medicines at any point in the Province more than fifteen miles from the nearest place of business operated by a member of the association. Such persons are required to sell poisons subject to the regulations contained in the Act with reference thereto. This

section further prohibits any person who is not a member of the association in good standing from using the title of "chemist" or similar titles calculated. to lead people to believe that such person is registered under the Act.
