A report released by the Senate Subcommittee on Reorganization Research and Internfational Organi- zations said federal agencies were so preoccupied with suppressing heroin that they have failed to combat the widespread diversion of legally manufactured drugs to il- licit traffic. THE REPORT, released follow- ing a nine-month investigation, said: "Present drug enforcement priorities and strategies are over- whelmingly weighted toward the suppression of heroin as the na- tion's number one drug menace. However, the report said, "All signs pointed to the emergence of polydrug abuse involving cocaine, amphetamines, barbiturates, hal- lucinogens,jmethadone, methaqua- lone, marijuana and alcohol used in a variety of combinations-some- times in conjunction with heroin." The report said a recent survey by the National Commission on Marijuana and Drug Abuse showed that 1.3 per cent of the adult population and 0.6 per cent of the youth had some experience with heroin. IN ADDITION, 3.2 per cent of adults and 1.5 per cent of young people had some experience with cocaine, the report said. "Thesetnumbers were far out- distanced, however, by the number of Americans reported by the Com- mission to be involved in recrea- tional, non-medical use of seda- tives, tranquilisers and stimulants: 22 per cent of adults and 16 per cent of youth," the subcommittee report said. Yet, the subcommittee report said, the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs has assigned only 300 of its 1,600 agents to investigate the diversion of legally manufac- tured pills into the illicit market and the number of seizures and arrests involving illicit pill traffic dropped in 1972 from previous years. IT CHARGED tiat the bureau relied heavily on voluntary com- pliance by the drug manufacturers. n cnCert BONNIE RAITT LITTLEFEAT i Proceeds go to Drug Help, Ozone House, Community Switchboard & Creative Arts Workshop I 8:00 HILL AUD.
