CONGRESS WORRIED
over LARGER use OF
T-F0RMING DRUGS
PALLADIUM NEWS BUREAU

WASHINGTON, Dec 24-Congress
is greatly concerned over the alarming
increase in the use of habit-forming
drugs in this country. Although law
was passed several years ago which
provides strict regulations for the i'm
portatiOn, manufacture and sale of
habit-forming drugs, reliable authori-
ties now estimate that there are be-
tween 100000 and 100000 drug ad
diets in the United States. In 1917
there were $4,000 pounds of raw opium
imported into the United States; in
1918, 100000 pounds, while in 1919 raw
opium importations amounted to 730,
600 pounds, representing an increase
of 1000 per cent in three years.
A man who until recently was en-
ployed as a federal narcotic inspector
and whose territory included Indiana,
informed the Palladium correspondent
that there are thousands of drug ad-
diets in that state. but" he added,
"the situation which exists in Indiana
is no different than in any of the
other states
The derivatives of raw opium in
clude morphine as well as the manu-
factured opium for smoking purposes.
"Why is dope peddling so hard TO
stop?" the former narcotic law en-
forcement officer was asked
How Can They Stop It?
How can 200 men, which are all
the United States government has as
signed to stop it, guard 10000 miles
of coast line? How can 200 men put
to rout an army of $4,000 to 10000
vicious, lawless dope peddlers?" he
answered
The cynical adage of the dope
peddler is: when you make one new
customer he makes six more for you
And the figures which the government
has compiled attest to the accuracy
of that statement.
1T is understood that the use of CO
caine is even more general in this
country than prepared opium or NOR
phine.
