Move to limit whiskey prescriptions to 100 per doctor
Washington July 14 Prohibition officers and dry advocates debate cutting physician prescriptions to 100 for three months.

Officials set 100 as a cap, while doctors argue treatment needs vary and should be known by physicians rather than enforcers. The Internal Revenue Bureau reportedly favored 100 as the standard.
