DRUG ADDICTS
ROB DRUG STORE
TOGET NARCOTICS
Police Believe Arrests of Ped
dlcrs Is Responsible
For Crime

That Harrisburg dope" users are
becoming desperate to secure their
accustomed supply of drugs, is the
impression created among police au-
thorities by the theft of between SIS
and $40 worth of narcotics of various
kinds from the drug store of DR..
John Fl. Garland, Sixth and Muench
streets, early this morning.
Police are convinced that the theft
was committed by drug addicts who
have been experiencing difficulty in
securing morphine, cocaine, heroin
and other narcotics to fill their needs
since the alleged leaders of the
dope" ring have been taken into
custody and are now either serving
sentences or are awaiting trial
The persons who committed last
evenings theft gained access to the
store by forcing screws from the out
side lock of the cellar door and after
gaining admission to it, by forcing
a trap door between the cellar and
the store room. In addition to the
narcotics, about $50 pennies were
taken.
