Doctors‘ Prerogative "But there is one power which the Prohibition Act does not con- icir and has never conferred, either on a Comission or the Attorney General, namely, the power oilim- i the number of prescriptions av ble to any physician. The doctor may be prosecuted only ior improper use oi prescriptions. Ii the Legislature sees flt to impose a limit. oi fifty. or twenty-five or oven ten prmciriptions per lnonrth on physician. I will lander- take to enforce such provision just as strictly and impartially as any portion oi the Act. But the func- tion of government is to enforce the law as it stands.

The clarity and better arrangement oi our Public Accounts in that. set-up was so obvious that the Provincial Auditor strongly advocated a re- vision oi the Public Accounts and Estimates along lines lalgiiy sim- ilar to those suggested by the iln- ancial experts oi the Howell Com- mission.
