Opium Users in High Life Across the Nation
American commissioners report opium importation into the United States rose sharply since 1878 with 1907 imports at 157,000 pounds. About 75 percent of imports feed morphine manufacture and only 25 percent go to legitimate uses. Chinese populations in New York and Philadelphia show significant smoking rates, while some white smokers exist in New York City. Dr Wright notes the problem spans professional classes, not just slums, and that many users are trying to quit under Chinese medical guidance.
