LARGE DRUG SEIZURES
U.S. Authorities Hit At Crime
Washington, Dec. 8. Another battle was won by the Government in its war of exter- mination against crooks, gangstera, and public enemies when agents of the Treasury Department, act- Ing simultaneously on prearranged instructions, arrested more than 500 men and seized thousands of dollars worth of narcotics, in a nation
wide round up of dope peddlers.
The Government is determined to wipe out organized crime and 10 | believes that by routing the nar cotics traffic it will go a long way toward accomplishing its objec tive, and as a gesture of ita seriousness in this matter, the ralds in Baltimore were lead by Mr. Henry Morgenthau. the Secre- tary of the Treasury, in person.”
The raid followed a series of lengthy investigations by the Treasury department and directed by Mr. Harry Anslinger, Chlef of the Narcotics Bureau
WELL
"The results are most gratify- ing," he said. "If the raid has. not ended the traffic entirely it will have made the so called 'Bz Shots' think plenty about it.
Among those to be gathered into the Treasury net were the president of the Oh Leurs Tong and seven of his henchmen. The Chinese were arrested in a raid on the Leong Temple wherein the Federal agents are said to have found oplum.
It is expected that the number of arrests will ultimately reach a thousand. It is worthy of note that the raid was staged on the eve of the National Crime Con- ference which will be held' in Washington and which is meeting for the purpose of formulating plans whereby the Federal and local agencies can combine their efforts toward wiping out under- activities to the best ad- vantage.—United Press.
