dope" LITTLE USED
IN ARMY AND NAVY
Pickpockets Have Habit and
They Sell 1t, Says Dis
trict Attorney
There j. very little dope" used in
the army and navy.
Pickpockets Invariably have the
dope" habit.
Nine out Of ten users OF dope"
sell Il.
More dope" in TendcrIOin than We
like to admit.

These statements We're outstanding IN
review of the unlawful use OF narcotic
drugs i'm Philadelphia. made by United
state District Attorney Francis Fisher
Kane today
Judging from the recent raids which
have been made by the Government
there seems 10 be a mercifully small
amount Of dope in the army and navy"
said Mr.. Kane.
lie continued by adding: This is
gratifying when we consider that the
flower of the country Is now serving
in the various branches of the service" ."
Mr.. Kane then said that the investi-
gators of the Department of Justice had
caught. red-hauded, dope sellers who
had made efforts to enlist in the army
and navy with the idea of poluting the
morals of our boys.
In speaking of the pickpoclset ques-
tion. Mr. Kane said Recent investi-
gatious lead me to believe that pick
pockets invariably use dope It seems
to be common among men of their fra
ternity to try to buoy their nerves
with dope before pulling a job
Among the arrests made for selling
dope we find that nine out of every
ten use it, The reason, hold, is that
any man who uses the damaging drugs
soon becomes uesless IN any walk of
life, and seemingly the first thing lie
does to make his life just possible is
to sell dope
There is no doubt that there ii .
great deal Of dope in the Tenderloin
at the present time" said the District
Atrorney. in fact, a great deal more
than We lihe to admit, This, Of course,
cannot be stopped entirely, but we can
and are keeping II down to the smallest
