Το get the fund started, the United States made an initial pledge of $2 million. That was in 1971. Since that time, the response of other countries has been disappointing. For although the United States has met its pledge, the contributions of other nations have not been sub- stantial. West Germany, for example, has contributed only $10,000, yet according to knowledgeable sources, there are indications that West Germany is becoming more prominent in the illegal trafficking in nar cotics. There have been unsubstantiated reports that there is an illicit heroin laboratory located in the Munich arca and that West Germany also serves as a conduit for opiates being smuggled from the Middle East.
In spite of the lack of response from other countries, the United States pledged another contribution of $5 million in fiscal year 1973. This will raise the U.S. contribution to $7 million since the inception of the plan as opposed to $1,201.203 for the other 131 members of the United Nations.

and pledges...............- 3, 201, 208 Given the less than enthusiastic support for the Fund, the United States must begin a concentrated effort to obtain wider participation from members of the United Nations, particularly froni those coun- tries that are links in the international narcotics traffic pattern. As the situation now stands, the attitude of most countries toward the U.N., Fund for Drug Abuse Control is an indication that they view the heroin probleni as uniquely American and appear to be unwilling to contribute to its solution.
