Nixon acts on heroin addiction in Vietnam troops
Rep. Robert H. Steele says the Nixon administration moved to increase troop withdrawals from Vietnam citing a high heroin addiction rate among U S soldiers. He estimates 10 to 15 percent in Indochina are addicted, with plans to raise monthly withdrawals from 14 300 to about 20 000 starting December and reduce U S forces to around 40 000 to 50 000 by July 1972. Steele and Rep. Morgan F Murphy toured Vietnam and allied nations to study the issue.
