Too, one need look no further than the cities of 18th century England to find exact counterpoints to America’s urban trau mas - from “ crime-in-the-street” to corruption in government. So, perhaps, the only distinguishing factor in the contemporary scene is DRUGS! i <. My object all sublim e, I shall achieve in time. Let the punish ment fit the crim e.” Gilbert and Sullivan This leads to a pretty obvious con clusion. Unless the problem of drugs in America is dealt with immediately and vigorously, none of the conventional solutions being retrieved from history will be of any avail. “ No” must be said not only by the “ little people” but by every element of the body politic from Congress to the White House-and mean il for a change or we all perish. In the net part of this series we will begin to examine the ‘ ‘nuts and bolts’ ’ of the system. In the meantime take a look at this assessment from a national magazine. Already, at the end of the third quarter, statistics indicate that crime against both people and property will substantially increase this year. At the same time we are informed that A. There are not enough law enforcement personnel to properly investigate and bring the perpetrators to justice, B. If they were caught, tried and convicted, the facilities are not available to house them all-hence the “ revolving door syndrone” that leaves most male fac tors on the street, and C. The concept of “ rehabilitation” has been buried un der the weight of a failing, underfunded “ system” of “ criminal justice (?)” It is increasingly apparent that at the current and accelerating rate of lawlessness in this republic it will be impossible to fund an effective system of jurisprudence-let alone afford the facilities to house, feed and supervise an evergrowing population that may approach one tenth of our citizenry by the year 2000.
