WASHINGTON — The Defense
Department is selling surplus planes
to people who resell them to drug
smugglers, Sen. Harrison Schmitt,
R-N.M., charged Thursday.
Schmitt said 127 surplus two- and
four-engine cargo planes have been
identified by drug enforcement
agents as part of the dope-smuggling
fleet used between South and Cen
tral America and the southern Un
ited States.
Schmitt said the most recent air
craft sale was last week.
He said he was not accusing the
Pentagon of helping drug dealers,
but that sales to middlemen, who in
turn sell the planes to smugglers,
should be stopped.
Schmitt and Sen. Dennis DeCon-
cini, D-Ariz., questioned presiden
tial drug abuse adviser Lee Dogoloff
at a hearing on the White House
budget.
Both took issue with DogolofFs
claim that the administration has had
some success in keeping heroin out
of the country.
Dogoloff cited as evidence an esti
mated reduction from 500,000 to
380,000 in the number of heroin
addicts. He said there has been an 80
percent reduction in three years in
the number of heroin overdose
deaths.
But DeConcini said he had seen
figures indicating there are still ab
out 500,000 addicts and that during
the same period, use of cocaine has
soared.
He said there has been a lack of
coordination between the Customs
Service and the Drug Enforcement
Agency. Witnesses before other
committees have testified smuggling
is “out of hand” in south Florida
where “the stuff is just floating up on
the beaches,” he said.
Dogoloff said he would investigate
Schmitt’s information about the use
of surplus military planes.
