Although the traffic in dangerous drugs is not extensive in Britain, it is. on the international scale, a grave problem. Millions of lives are wrecked, illicit fortunes are made, and international gangs are able to flourish by the cultivation and distribution of drugs which, though having their uses as medicines, can lure their addicts on to madness and ruin. How extensive is this traffic, where are its centres, how are the drugs obtained and how smuggled from one country to the other? Tonight's programme gives the background to this siniister trade and describes the efforts being made by the United Nations to stamp it out
