Every big city in the nation was involved. Harry J. A ns linger, narcotics commissioner in the Treasury De partment, told reporters the mass mop-up operation by 250 under cover agents in his bureau will continue throughout the night. He predicted it will deal a staggering blow to the illicit drug traffic. Biggest Raid Stared The roundup of peddlers, Ans linger said, is by far the biggest ever staged. A few underworld giants were arrested Friday, he added, but more top racket bosses will be captured when a grand jury in vestigation, now under way, Is completed within three weeks. Asked where the jury probe Is centered, Anslinger told a news conferece, "if we even mentioned the name of the city, some of the men who are talking will be killed." Aimed at Peddlers The commissioner said the raids were aimed at peddlers who have supplied dope for an alarming in crease in teen-age addiction, and at veteran offenders who face stif fened penalties under a new nar cotics law which makes prison terms mandatory. Anslinger said the arrested ped dlers "are the most dangerous type of criminals," but that the raids were so thoroughly prepared and secretly staged there was no vio lence. Predicts Use Drop Each of the arrests, the com missioner said, represents an ac tual purchase of heroin or mari juana by - Treasury agents who have worked undercover in the midst of narcotic rings for more1 than a month. Anslinger predicted "a verji sharp drop in drug addiction and illicit dope traffic. He said he couldn't estimate mathematically how crippling the blow will be. Hits at Sources The raids started before dawn Friday in San Antonio, Tex., and spread throughout the nation to more than 18 states. Up to 100 al leged peddlers were seized in Tex as alone, 50 in New York. 50 in Philadelphia, and 30 in Washing ton, D. C. Anslinger said the crackdown is tied to a drive to close down huge European sources for drugs sent to the United States. PORTLAND UP)- Five Negroes were arrested here Friday night in what federal officers said was part of a nation-wide crackdown on suspected narcotics handlers.
