sold  as  such  on  prescriptions  of  physicians  holding  permits  to  pre- 
scribe liquor;  medicinal  preparations  fit  for  beverage  purposes 
should,  however,  be  included  in  the  report  on  Form  141 8. 
"The  report  of  druggists  on  Form  141 8  should  not  include  sales  of 
liquor  to  other  druggists  or  to  physicians  or  hospitals,  except  on 
authorized  prescriptions,  nor  sales  of  liquor  for  industrial  or  scien- 
tific purposes;  it  should  include  only  such  liquors  as  are  dispensed 
and  sold  on  authorized  prescriptions  of  practicing  physicians  to 
parties  for  medicinal  use. 
"One  copy  of  the  druggists'  monthly  report  on  Form  141 8  will 
be  retained  by  the  Federal  Prohibition  Director,  and  one  copy  will 
be  forwarded  to  the  Federal  Prohibition  Commissioner  at  Wash- 
ington, D.  C,  together  with  Form  141 9. 
"The  Federal  Prohibition  Director  will  report  each  month  on 
Form  141 9,  entering  thereon  the  names  and  addresses  of  each  drug- 
gist or  pharmacist  holding  permit  to  dispense  liquor  on  physicians' 
prescriptions.  Upon  receipt  of  Forms  141 8  from  druggists,  the 
Director  will  enter  on  Form  141 9  opposite  the  name  of  the  druggist 
the  number  of  prescriptions  fihed  during  the  month,  and  the  quantity 
of  each  kind  of  liquor  sold. 
"Report  on  Form  141 9  should  be  rendered  promptly  each  month, 
not  later  than  the  tenth  day  following  the  month  for  which  it  is 
rendered,  notwithstanding  the  Director  may  not  have  received 
Forms  141 8  from  all  druggists  holding  permits  to  dispense  liquor  on 
physicians'  prescriptions.  The  name  of  each  druggist  holding  such 
permit  must  be  listed  on  Form  141 9. 
"When  the  quantity  of  liquor  sold  and  the  number  of  prescriptions 
filled  cannot  be  entered  on  Form  141 9  by  reason  of  the  failure  of 
druggists  to  file  Form  141 8,  the  Director  will  not  later  than  the  last 
day  of  the  month  render  a  supplemental  report  on  Form  141 9  of  all 
returns  on  Form  141 8  received  by  him  from  druggists  after  his  regu- 
lar report  for  the  month  on  Form  1 4 1 9  has  been  rendered.  The  supple- 
mental report  on  Form  14 19  must  contain  a  list  of  all  druggists 
listed  on  the  regular  report  and  from  whom  no  return  on  Form  141 8 
had  been  received  when  the  regular  report  on  Form  141 9  was  made 
by  the  Director.  When  a  druggist  has  failed  to  file  his  return  at 
the  end  of  the  month,  action  should  be  taken  looking  to  the  revoca- 
tion of  his  permit,  unless  a  good  and  sufficient  reason  shall  be  shown 
for  the  delinquency  in  filing  his  return. 
"When  a  return  on  Form  141 8  is  not  filed  with  the  Director  on  or
