Among the many evils against which society struggles, one of the most vicious is the traffic in cocaine. In every community where the menace develops, all the forces which society can mobilize, including social agencies, doctors, law enforcement officials and government, should band together to stamp it out. Without such activity the dope evil would run rampant. Yet it has long been recognized that one other powerful force is necessary before the struggle can be completely successful. That force is an aroused and educated public awareness. It is in the hope of aiding in developing such awareness that this section has been produced. The dangers listed above have happened to many men and women, and there will be many more tragic men and women until you, the informed citizen, join the forces now fighting the dope evil to forever stamp it out in our land.
