Drugs, and a former New
Jersey Assemblyman, warned
this week that heroin addiction
has already reached the
saturation point in some cities
and was - radiating out to
suburban, small-city and rural
areas, where addiction levels
' are now rising fastest.
"No city is safe from a
heroin epidemic" he warned,
"and today, Atlanta, Georgia,
and Dallas, Texas, are just as
vulnerable as New York City
and Newark, New Jersey.

in niiauiai u^ui^ta, mis wttiw,
Richardson explained that the
tragedy of the current
addiction crisis is deepening
because the government is'
still not dealing with it.
"Last April, President Ford
I told Congress that record-high
drug addiction levels were 'a
clear and present threat to the
| safety and future of the
nation*. But despite this
admission, nothing is being
done, the public is still
apathetic, and the same men
who were part of the Nixon
drug cover-up still lead our
most important federal drug

agencies today." Richardson
charged. ' ?
He continued that, "Dru
addiction can destroy ou
entire society as it has already
begun to destroy our cities,
but neither President Ford nor
Governor Carter speaks about
the addiction crisis. Although
the costs and consequences of
drug addiction hurts every
American, black and white,
rich and noor. neither
?candidate is dealing with this
national tragedy." Richardson
told the black publishers that
drug addiction must become a
national issue during this
campaign publishers.
In his book. JUNKIE: THE
DEADLIEST COVER-UP!,
which will be published in
soft-cover early next month,
Richardson charges that the
Nixon administration deliberntalu

believing that its drug
problems were virtually
solved. He asserts that
because of the Nixon drug
cover-up, which he called "the
deadliest cover-up of all"
addiction has reached the
highest level in our history
and is now a problem in every
part of the nation. "It is mind
boggling to learn that in some
cities, one-third ~ of all the
young men between 16 and 35
are heroin addicts, and

with before we can hope to
evitalize our cities and save
our society."
Cautioning the black newspaper
publishers that addiction
was now rising fastest
among suburban and smallcity
youngsters, Richardson
warned that small cities in the
South and in all parts of the
nation, were on the way to
being devastated by addiction
just as Eastern cities already
are.
He urged the black
newspapers to become the
catalyst in launching a
national war on drugs
movement. "You, the black
newspaper publishers, can
begin to move the nation. You can
make the people and the
i a -
mass meaia wane up to this
deadly danger. You can move
the nation to make drug
addiction a priority issue
during the next administration,
whoever is elected.
"The goal of the war," he
said, "on the drugs movement
is to build a broad-based
national constituency of concerned
citizens who will move
the federal government to
come to grips with the
addiction crisis and seek
i-.j'- - ?? - -
soiunons.' tie told the
publishers that they better
than anyone else understood
the impact of addiction on
their local communities. He
said, "You understand the
need for action and you can
make the people and the white
press understand it also."*
