(c) gain participation by all nations in the U.N. Special Fund for Drug Abuse Control; and

(d) initiate proposals designed to upgrade the capabilities of the United Nations Division on Narcotic Drugs and the International Narcotics Control Board in terms of personnel and funding. Special emphasis should be placed on the development of programs by the U.N. Division on Narcotic Drugs to provide alternate economic activities for opium farmers. 7. That U.S. military authorities in Southeast Asia undertake all appropriate policing measures to reduce the flow of heroin to U.S. troops in South Vietnam, including increasing the surveillance of mail entering South Vietnam through APO channels. Customs procedures must also be expanded to include inspection of Thai soldiers entering South Vietnam aboard U.S. military aircraft.

8. That the Department of Defense improve its capability to identify military heroin addicts by instituting an extensive program of urinalysis; that it provide acute care and detoxification for all military addicts; and that it provide basic rehabilitation services for those addicts. That in cases where military rehabilitation efforts prove unsuccessful, the unrehabilitated addict's commanding officer should be permitted and required, prior to the addict's discharge from the military, to civilly commit the addict to the Administrator of the Veterans' Administration for a period of 3 years for treatment and rehabilitation. That the Veterans' Administration in turn contract with civilian multimodality treatment centers at the community level with the purposes of utilizing the centers' expertise within the VA hospitals and ultimately turning the patient over to such centers for reintegration into society.

9. That the United States substantially speed up the withdrawal of military draftees from South Vietnam. The draftees have proven far more susceptible to heroin addiction than nondraftees and are estimated to have an addiction rate of over 15 percent.

10. That the Congress consider legislation which would provide for preventive detention, in the form of a nonbailable offense, for those arrested for the illegal possession of, or trafficking in, heroin, who are not addicted themselves. This legislation should also consist of a mandatory jail sentence of not less than 20 years upon conviction with no possibility of parole.

11. That the Congress consider legislation which would ban the manufacture, distribution, sale, or possession with intent to use, drug materials for illegal purposes.

12. That the United States consider canceling the passport of any American known to be engaged in the illegal traffic in heroin. 13. That U.S. customs authorities increase the surveillance of mail entering the United States through APO channels.

14. That the United States utilize its worldwide intelligence collection apparatus, including the use of satellite photography, to

gather information on all aspects of the illegal production of and traffic in heroin.

15. That substantial new funds be made available to the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs for discretionary expenditure. 16. That the United States consider making additional funds available to Interpol to improve its operations.

17. That the United States seek greater cooperation from the Government of Switzerland to identify individuals who utilize secret Swiss bank accounts to finance the traffic in heroin.

18. That Congress extend an invitation to the Parliament of Turkey to join in the creation of an interparliamentary group to consider ways and means of attacking the illegal production and sale of opium and its derivatives.

19. That the Committee on Foreign Affairs conduct an in-depth series of hearings to consider the several legislative proposals that have been made to deal with the illegal international traffic in narcotics.
