A View From The Governor's Office
By Gov. Raymond P. Shafer
In order to mount a coordinat
ed. State wide attack on the prob
lems of drug abuse. 1 recently
signed an Executive Older creat
ing a new Governor’s Council on
Drugs.
If we arc Honest with ourselves
most communities will have to
admit to an insidious, quietly
accepted conspiracy that is re
sponsible for the existance of a
major sub-culture of pushers,
drug addicts and users
If there were not such a con
spiracy, in which we all share
some blame, then drugs would
not be destroying the lives of the
poor in our ghettos, students in
our schools and colleges, citizens
in both large and small commun
ities throughout the Common
wealth.
People get hooked through
their own weakness, but com
munity standards help them
standards that allow the narcotics
trade to operate too easily.
The distribution of heroin re
quires movement through four
oi five levels between importer
and pusher. And someone besides
the police knows this and knows
who is responsible for operating
the business They’ie just not
talking.
Conservative estimates of the
number of addicts in the Nation
and the average daily expendi
ture of heroin indicate that the
gross trade amounts to 5350 mil
lion annually.
That’s a lot of money and the
user has to get it somewheie Is
there anv wonder that crimes of
larceny, burglary, robbery, as
sault and prostitution aie on the
increase?
The community conspiracy that
allows this to exist must be bro
ken up or we will never solve
this problem
How can we break up this con
spiracy?
First, 'we must start by putting
the problem of drug abuse in
proper perspective, without a
great deal of emotionalism Pan
ic must be avoided, as well as
political ihetouc
The pioblem is grave, but not
hopeless, noi unprecedendented
in American life In 1914, there
was appi oximately one addict an
every 400 Amei icans. today there
is one for eveiy 3,500
So. with the pioper commit
ment fiom the people, we can
solve the pioblem if we aie will
ing to spend the money and effoit
requued
Preventive programs must be
supported in our schools and
institutions so oui childien learn
how destiuctive the use of drugs
is.
Rehabilitative progiams, such
as Gaudenzia House, must be
expanded to help those addicts
who have not yet been leached
■Drug conti ol laws must be up
dated and then enforcement
strengthened
Parents must confront them
selves to find the ieasons why
their children turn to speed, hor
se or pot and the whole adult
society should consider what role
the -mordmate use of alcoholic
beverages plays in the diug ab
use problems of ther progeny.
Community standaids must be
changed to end the conspnacy
that allows the diug establish
ment to pi ey upon the weak,
especially those frustrated by the
despair of the ghetto who turn
to drugs to make life more bear
able.
It’s a big job And it is impera
tive that we help eveiy member
of the Geneial Assembly under
stand that the cost of preventive
programs is fai less than ichabil
tation. It is estimated that to
cure each addict the cost is about
$50,000
The widest possible public sup
port is needed With' the right
focus and direction, such support
is not going to be haid to gel.
Deep public concern is being
demonstrated daily
Seveinl State agencies involved
have been operating too inde
pendently of each other.
That is why I have signed an
Executive Older establishing the
Governor’s Council on Drugs to
be headed bv Dr. Ellsworth Bro
wneller, our new Secretaiy of
Health. He has my complete
backing to direct the resources of
the Commonwealth toward the
full-scale attack on drug abuse
which he will direct.
Specifically, the Council will be
lesponsible for;
Development of a total and
enlightened program for the
tieatment and rehabilitation of
drug-dependent peisons.
Examine present laws in ered to coordinate our efforts to
light of the magnitude of the educate the public, especially our
drug pioblem We aie now await- school children, about the darn
ing the result of work now being gers of using drugs and narcotics,
done by the House of Represen- Through these efforts, we seek
tatives to draft a new drug code to arouse community interest in
foi the Commonwealth. We are a coordinated attack so that we
hopeful we will be able to sup- do not waste our energy in over
port that legislation lapping efforts Hopefully, we
The Council will develop a sys- will have received community
