During the past year, the Drug Action Committee of Wake County has met weekly and some times bi-weekly in a downtown church for the purpose of plan ning effective assistance to the youth of our community caught in the webb of drug abuse. The guiding spirit of this com mittee was and is a physician in daily contact with youth who have been “hooked” by addic tive drugs and suffer thetorture of the damned. The drug committee has en gaged in research in his area and has reached the conclusion that the county is now in a crisis situation with some 1,000 heroin users, 40 per cent of them hard core addicts. A complete understanding of this new drug culture awaits further research and investiga tion. However, much has been learned and verified and should now become the common juiowl edge of the community. Addictive drugs now seem to be a legacy of the Vietnam War just as tobacco use came into greatly expanded use during World War I, and alcohol in World War D.
