Judge Arthur Guerin, long a member of the municipal bench, said use of drugs was so wide spread it was almost as easy to get narcotics as it was to get a drink during prohibition. "During prohibition, a gentle man was accustomed to escort his lady friend Into a speakeasy for a spot of liquor," the Judge told the lawyers' club. Describe! Use "Today he takes her to a speak' easy for a shot of heroin. She rolls up her sleeve and gets a shot in the arm lor a aouar. He said the se of marijuana, cig arettes was even more common. "In some sections of the city, about as many people smoke marl Juana cigarettes as smoke ordinary cigarettes, ne sam. "Practically every bootblack and hot dog stand from First and Alameda streets to the town of Watts sells marijuana. One hun dred addicts were picked up with' in 60 days in the shadow of the Hall of Justice." "Respectable" Guerin added that "respectable" people also were buying lots of drugs. He said some of them hail complained to him that the pen alty for possession ought to be re' duced from a felony to a mlsde. meanor. The judge blamed the situation on leniency of the courts. He said the laws on narcotics were "realls tic" and police were doing a good job of enforcing them. "But judges seem loath to send offenders to the penitentiary," he said. "One man admitted selling to high school students. He was given only a county jail sentence. When he got out, he was arrested again, and given another county jail sentence." Former Democratic Publicity Man Dies WASHINGTON 0W Charles Michelson, 79, newspaperman and former publicity director of the Democratic National Committee, died Thursday. He had been ill and confined for months to his apartment where he died. Michelson, veteran political writer, took over as Democratic press agent in 1929 and held the post for 13 years. In 1940 he promoted a third term for Franklin D. Roosevelt the first ever given a president. Michelson had been chief Wash ington correspondent for the New York World for 12 years before taking the party job which even tually paid him $25,000 a year. A native of Virginia City, Nev., he started his newspaper career as a $7 a week reporter on the San Francisco Post. He worked on several West Coast and New York papers. He died at 7:45 a.m. after awakening and asking a nurse to bring him a cup of coffee. Foreign Wheat Crops Increase WASHINGTON .T.n niL An agriculture department foreign wheat expert said this week that Europe's planted winter wheat acreage was expected to exceed that of the last two "bad weather" years, but to fall short of the ore- war average. Robert L. Gastineau, of the of fice of foreign agricultural rela tions, said the European produc tion ouuooK also was "much bet ter" than last year when the se vere winter killed lar na tion of planted crops. 'That isn't saying very much," he said. "It couldn't be any worse than last year." Gastineau said no quantitative estimates of planting were avail able yet exceot from th Fr.nrh who reported last month that they were a monin aneaa ot last year In planting. The French officially estimated, as of Dec. 1, that 9,500,000 acres had'been planted to winter wheat. This eoualled the arrasm nlmM in France on Jan. 1 last year and compares with the 8,500,000 acres planted Jan. 1946.
