Last Tuesday morning, Janu-
ary 8, J. Richie Coleman, Asst.
Boys Worker at the Robert
Gould Shaw House addressed the
full committee of the City-Wide
Boys Workers Conference on
Narcotics and the Dope Habit"
The committee, eager for in
formation, was surprised when
Coleman said, 'There are almost
as many women dope addictS
here as men. However, the wo-
men are a little more bold about
its use Although REFERS are
not considered habit forming,
they are often the stepping
stone to more advanced forms of
drugs such as heroin or horse"
as it is known to the "sniffers",
cocaine or opium, morphine,
codeine or paregoric.
''When teen-agers start out
with a REFER just ''for the fun
of it" or ''to belong" or to be
approved by their idols, they are
on the way to certain destruc-
ton, unless taken in hand in
time. What may have started off
as a lark at a Friday or Satur-
day night teen-age get-to-gether
may end up with a youngster be-
coming a hopeless "junkie"
several years later.
"The men who sell the stuff
are seldom users themselves, but
are hardheaded business men ex-
plotting the weaknesses of human
beings and the folly of youth"
Coleman listed among the
various kinds of starters" and
dopes, - nutmeg, REFERS, heroin,
cocaine, opium, benzedrine, nem-
butal, dextadrine, demerol and
several other barbiturates, and

BEING A FRIEND
BY ALMTRA PARK

Being friend is gallant endeavor
You who attempt IT must have in your breast
Courage unfaing and faith that snecure dauns or
dismays
You must give of your best,
Even before there is call for a favor,
You should be ready to give or to lend;
You should stand staunch, though the whole world
should waver
This is the meaning of being friend.
Being friend is endless endeavor
Not for moment, not for day, not for year,
But all time, and forever.
There is no turning along friendships way
Even in moments of triumphant's gadness
You should be ready with praise and comnends
Ready with tears for the hours Of sadness
Never should sympathy fail for friend.
Being friend takes the best that is in you,
Give it ungrudgng,
Not stopping count what will cost you what it
will win you

itup when you come to the end,
Life has no prouder achievement to offer,
Nothing that's finer than being friend.

Protecting District Industries

IF BOMBS should fall on
l. Washington tomorrow,
thousands of industrial and
business workers would owe
their lives indirectly to a
little known District Civil
Defense unit.
But the thousands who
would lose their lives through
negligence are the primary
concern of the Plant Protec-
ton Service. This Civil De-
ense group is strictly advisory.
Its specific purpose is to keep
production going and to save
life and plant property in case
of attack.
When local Civil Defense
Director John E. Fondahl be-
gan assembling his protective
forces, he realized the impor-
tance of such a service. If
industry here were disabled,
Government workers would be
unable to carry out their
duties because of lack of food,
clothing and shelter.

Fluoridation Of Wafer Sleeping Pills Studied

Gallinger Hospital psychiatrists

pills during school hours yester-

police said.
Capt. James E. Silvea of the
11th precinct said one Of the
boys took six pills and the other
two. Questioned about the rea-
son, they confusedly told different
stories.
One boy said he was plagued by
"girl trouble" and the other was
worried about his popularity with
classmates. Other stories tumbled
out during the interviews.
Russell lombard, an Anacostia
gym instructor, noticed one of
them weaving during exercises and

second boy revealed he had taken
the pills. Both were transferred
to Gallinger Hospital, where their
condition today was good.
