the raids, said the coordinated
attack was the largest single
drug bust ever undertaken by
federal agents.
DRUG Enforcement Adminis-
trator John Bartels said an ex-
pected 125 arrests in 10 major
U. S. cities, coupled with Mexi-
co's simultaneous raids upon
clandestine laboratories, would
destroy the network solely re-
sponsible for annually flooding
the nation with three billion
pep pills.
That's nearly five times the
legitimate medical supply -
set by federal law - of the
drug. Bartels said streets sales
of contraband amphetamine
tablets, known as "mini-ben-
nies," are estimated to total
$1.6 billion per year.
Arrests were to be made in
10 cities, where federal grand
juries returned sealed indict-
ments based on evidence gath-
ered by a special DEA task
force over the last eight months.

briefed on the operation yester-

standing that stories would be
withheld until after midnight,
but word of the raids appeared
in print before that hour.
South of the border, Mexican
officials planned to move in on
the last six of 10 laboratories
targeted by the DEA, U. S. of-
ficials said. Four labs were
shut down in raids over the last
few days.
Precise details of the Mexican
operation were not disclosed,
but Bartels said it was under
the command of Atty. Gen. Pe-
dro Ojeda Baullada, who had
promised the United States full
cooperation three weeks ago.
Hundreds of U. S. officers,
meanwhile, moved in on sus-
pected wholesalers and distrib-
utors in and near these cities:
