DR.. Leo L. Stanley, resi-
dent physician of San QUEEN
tin penitentiary near San
Francisco, says that unless
the importation and sale of
"dope" is effectually stopped
the youth of America will be
undermined mentally, ply
sically, and spiritually.
DIR. Stanley is making a
life study of the connection
between narcotics and crime.
He is keeping careful rec
ords of the prisoners in his
charge and these records
show that SO per cent of the
men committed to prison for
crime began the use of drugs
before they had attained
their maturity.
Begin at Tender Ages.
Of sixty addicts in one study,
40 per cent began the use Of
"dope" between the ages Of fiji
teen and twenty-one.
Three began at twenty-one, 4
began at twenty-five, 8 at twenty
three, 2 at twenty-four, and 2
at twenty-five.
Fourteen had become addicts
in early manhood, between
twenty-five and thirty, and 8 be-
tween thirty and forty.
One of these men took lauda-
mum when he was eight years
old-his parents started him by
giving him paregoric for earache.
Prisoner No. 3942 began using
hypodermic when he was eleven
years old. The doctor gave it to
him for 'risings" in his ears.
Learned i'm Institution.
Another prisoner, who is serving
his fourth prison sentence at the
ago Of thirty-six, learned the dope"
habit at the old house Of correction
in San Francisco. He was q home
less and friendless boy at thirteen
and was sent to the house of cor
rection for care and protection.
He became a dope" slave there
and during four different terms in
prison he was able to keep up his
habit.
