Narcotics are smuggled into the United States through New York City. Seattle and San Francisco. Heroine, called the most deadly narcotic has its main source of supply in the Far East and Bulgaria and the dope seized is traced to French and Chinese ports for shipment.

The bill, along with his plan to have all commission fees placed into the general fund, was introduced the fir,t day of business, and it was killed the 40th day. • The general fund bill 1« «till in senate committee and its defeat was likewise predicted.
