licity, and followed by the practical
application of standard policies and
programs in all lands. I am enclos¬
ing copy of the resolution.
Captain Hobson, as President of
the International Narcotic Educa¬
tion Association, has officially re
quested me to introduce a bill in
i Congress for an apporpriation for a
fitting participation in the Confer
cnee by the Government of the Unit
j e d States as host to the governments
of other lands. This I have agreed
to, as it will be in pursuance of the
resolution adopted at the Geneva
Conference committing the nations
to a policy of Narcotic Education.
It is harly necessary to point out
to you that this problem is challeng
ing all nations and has become se¬
rious and urgent. Take the situation
in America lor instance. In 1919 the
| special survey of the Treasury De
j partment reported the number of ad
I diets in the United States as ex
! ceeding 1,000,000, and increasing. In

History, ... rred l’ 1 A. a ir„u; Wallis, s* Commis- w • .
sionor of Corrections, New \ ork City,
j says, ‘‘Of all the plagues visited
U p on our land, drug addiction is by
: far the most horrible and the most
deadly- - -. The increase in narcotics
has been accompanied by an increase
in crime - - - Heroin changes a mis¬
demeanant into a desperado of the
most vicious type - - - 60 per cent of
the inmates in all penal and correc¬
tional institutions of New York City
are users or sellers of drugs - - There
must be in the greater city of New
York close to 200,000 drug addicts
of the underworld type - - - There
are many more of whom nothing is
officially known.” The health officer
of Chicago, investigating cause of
crime there, found drug addiction
alarming among the youth of both
sexes. Last year the Assistant U. S.
Attorney General reported that more
than 40 per cent of all prisoners be¬
ing convicted in Federal Courts were
addicts and that the number is in
creasing. Judge McAdoo of the New
York City Courts estimates that of
the thousands of addicts who have
appeared before him, 98 per cent ■ 1
were below the age of 30 and 98 per
cent were Heroin addicts. The Heroin
addict is inherently a recruiting agent
and soon recruits a gang. The mem¬
bers of this gang in turn soon start
recruiting other gangs. I am anxious
to learn your sentiments as a rep¬
resentative citizen who reflects and
helps to create public opinion. It
would be gratifying to hear from
you, that you and those whoy you
contact, approve the proposed Con¬
ference, and, in principle, the pro¬
posed bill for the participation of
our Government, and that in your
columns you will co-operate to make
the Conference a success of lasting
benefit to humanity.
The object of this letter is to ascer¬
tain from editors, the measure of
public opinion this bill will receive.
