PARIS, May 21, (U. P).—The United States army is preparing to give concrete evidence of its gratitude to approximately 46,000 Euro-
WASHINGTON, May 21.—One of the best things America won in|peans who risked their lives during |
the war is greater control of the drug traffic. Japan, Korea and satellite areas in China now are going out of the | business of producing opium. H, J. Anslinger, head of the treasury! department narcotics bureau, counts. this a not&ble victory in a world- | wide campaign to free mankind from a degrading vice.
So far “dope” hasn't proved very tempting to American soldiers in the Orient, Mr. Anslinger reports. “We haven't had nearly the trouble we expected,” he says. American occupation of Japan and Korea removed the biggest pre-war source of illegal narcotics. Advances in medical science provide a further gain, British Also Co-operate Doctors today make much less use of habit-forming narcotics drugs than they did at the time of world war I, due to the development of other pain-deadening agents. So far as America was concerned, world war II put France, Japan and Korea out of the picture qf dope-supplying sources. Some opium is raised in Mexico, and some reaches the United States from Iran and India. But the supply is very small,
“The British since the war have |
refused to re-open their licensed opium shops in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Borneo,” Mr. Anslinger says. “This has been an immense
help to us.”
Hospital Rate Drops The dope habit has dropped so sharply in the United States the U. 8. public health hospital at Lexington, Ky., which is a prison operated to cure narcotic addicts, is not full, Capacity is 1300 men and 100 women, and current population (including volenteer inmates) is .774 men and 116 women, A similar institution at Fort Worth, Tex., with 1000 beds has been turned over to mental patients. Draft rejections during World War I for dope addiction averaged one in 1000 cases,” says Mr. Anslinger. “In this war the rejections for this cause were one in 10,000 cases.” 7 The best way to cure a person of the narcotic habit, says Dr. Dale Cameron, assistant chief of the
mental hygiene division of the bu-|
reau of medical services, USPHS, is to place him under probationary restraint. Seek Cause
