La Marihuana

La Defensa, May 23, 1936

A group of prominent persons of the Mexican Colony has come to our office, to ask us in the name of decency to open an energetic campaign against the vice of "Marihuana" which has become an article of great demand, even among some students of high school. According to data furnished by the commission the pernicious herb is becoming generalized, not only among the laboring elements to whom the introduction is attributed, but also in juvenile groups and some branches of the army.
