Marijuana is now a multi billion dollar business, involving more money than all but the larg est industrial combines, and it is only natural that so much tax- free cash attracts organized crime. The large scale marijuana dealer in the past was generally a college or graduate student with no criminal background. These amateurs made money sup plying ther local campuses with a few kilos of the illegal weed smuggled in from South-of-The- Border. But with the explosion of mari- j uana use the small time smuggler is being forced out of the market by giant criminal organizations. Not only do these new breed of smugglers have vast sums of money to invest but many of the principals involved, like prohibi tion barons of old, think nothing of shooting down rival dealers. “With so much money involved in pot,” said a U.S. Customs offi cial, “there is bound to be casual ties.” South Florida, where a large proportion of the nation’s grass supply enters the country, has seen some “pretty tough custom ers” take over the business, ac cording to an area police spokes man. Broward County (Fort Lauderdale) Sheriff Ed Stack, whose jurisdiction covers acres of swamp land favored by smug glers for airplane drops, said that his deputies have noted an upswing in the number of shot guns, carbines, machineguns and large caliber revolvers taken from drug distribution suspects.

As they attempted to rush the front door, the sheriff said, a slight, 25-year-old girl from South Carolina opened up on them with a .30 caliber car bine. “Much to our distress,” Sheriff Stack said, “we have found grass pushers inevitably armed to the teeth with weapons we identify with organized crime.” A major portion of the mari juana traffic in the Eastern half of the United States is now at tributed to a group of felons with loose connections to organized crime. The Dixie Mafia, as police call them, smuggle grass through South Florida and distribute it as far north as New York City. Miami police contend the group’s marijuana activities were responsible for the recent execu tion-style murder of a former organization member, ex-convict Jackson Smith. Two teenage companians who happened to be accompanying Smith and who were the daughters of a politi cally prominent Louisiana family were also slain. Miami Police Department hom icide Sgt. Mike Gonzalez reported that the shootings were done by “professional mob men” under scoring the ominous new trends in the marijuana racket. The violence connected with the mob takeover of the marijuana business is not peculiar to South Florida. A few weeks ago an other alleged member of the Dixie Mafia, Charles Christian, sur rendered to police in Savannah, Ga., because he claimed he was marked for death by gangland executioners. A mustachioed young man iden tified with the marijuana trade in New York City was found de capitated in Brooklyn. His mur der was tied in wtih territorial disputes among the grass dealers of the city only after his head was found in a garbage paid near Fifth Avenue. In Detroit and Chicago police have seen a surge in violence con nected wth marijuana dealing. “Unfortunately,” said one police official, “this trend is spreading and is not an isolated situation. This is what happens when the mob gets its fingers in anything.” Police are now worried that gang warfare may breaks out on the nation’s campuses, where much of the grass is used. Any thing from attempted rip-offs by the local college dealer to youth ful collegian capitalists trying to cut out their own segment of the market without permission could bring Mafia-type gunmen onto the scene. And schools would turn into battlefields like speakeasies and breweries of 50 years ago. Laird On The Way Out As Nixon Reorganizes Cabinet CAMP DAVID, Md. UP)—Presi dent Nixon said today announce ments of sweeping Cabinet changes will begin Tuesday. He also said Secretary of Defense Melvin R. Laird will leave gov ernment service. The chief executive, appearing briefly before a dozen newsmen at his mountain retreat, said his aim in reorganizing the federal government is to find ways “to do a better job with fewer people.” The largest personnel cuts, he promised, would be made in the White House staff which he said has “grown like Topsy.” The President, who spoke shortly after George Romney an nounced his resignation as the secretary of Housing and Urban Development, eliminated from speculation about future appoint ments the names of two promi nent political figures, former Democratic Gov. John B. Con- nally of Texas and Republican Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York. Nixon said either man would have made a very valuable addi tion to the Cabinet but said each has told him that he would prefer “not to take a permanent job at this time.” Laird had made no secret of his desire to resign as Secretary of Defense. However, there had been some speculation he might take some other federal post. Nixon said Laird wanted to leave government service. The President, who told report ers he will be spending increas ing amounts of time at Marine- guarded Camp David during his second term, also disclosed that Caspar Weinberger will be leav ing his post as director of the Office of Management and Bud get. He said Weinberger would get another top level assignment. The chief executive said the first Cabinet change will be an nounced Tuesday—he apparently referred to his choices for Cabinet posts rather than resignations of incumbents — and estimated all Cabinet changes would be an nounced by Dec. 15.
