(1) Narcotic addiction and drug abuse are major health and social problems afflicting a significant proportion of the public, and much more needs to be done by public and private agencies to develop effective prevention and control.

(3) There is an urgent need to educate young people and the public in general on the abuse of drugs and that insufficient manpower currently are available to undertake such educational programs.
