Organized crime targeted
Reagan outlines program
United Press International
WASHINGTON — President
Reagan ordered the f ederal gov
ernment Thursday to mobilize
for a sustained attack on drug
trafficking and organized crime,
saying it is time to cripple the
power of the mob in America.
“Can we honestly say that
America is a land ‘with justice
for all’ if we do not now ecert
every effort to eliminate this
confederation of professional
criminals, this dark, evil enemy
within?” Reagan said in
announcing a new program
aimed at wrecking the lucrative
drug trade and dismantling
organized crime.
Reagan told a Justice Depart
ment audience the war on crime
has resulted in only sporadic
and short-term successes.
“The time has come to make
these gains permanent. The
time has come to cripple the
power of the mob in America,”
Reagan said.
The centerpiece of the drug
fight is the snifting of about
1,000 experienced federal
agents and prosecutors to 12
cities where task forces will be
formed and the addition of
space for federal prisoners. New
agents would be hired to replace
those transferred to the task
forces.
Money to start operating the
units in January will come from
money in the budgets of federal
agencies. Once fully operation
al, congressional appropriations
of approximately SI60 million
to $200 million annual!) will
support the units.
Reagan said the grasp of
organized crime reaches into ev
ery segment of socien and
makes money on almost eserv
type of illegal activity, ranging
from common burglar) - to gun-
running. Its success, be said, is
an affront to law-abiding
citizens and an “encouragement
to every street punk and two-bit
criminal who hopes someday to
make it to the big time.”
But he said citizen involve
ment and tough new state laws
on career criminals and repeat
offenders show Americans “arc
reassessing certain enduring
truths: The belief that right and
wrong do matter, that indi
viduals are responsible for their
actions, that evil is frequently a
conscious choice and that retri
bution must be swift and sure
for those who tlecide to maker
career of preying on the inno
cent.”
He called the drug probe‘a
major initiative that 1 believe on
mark a turning point in the bat
tle against crime.”
Reagan outlined an eight-
point program to form a pres
idential commission on crime,
enlist the help of all 50 gov
ernors and create a national net
work of 12 new regional task
forces to combat drugs and
organized crime.
The teams will be in addition
to the South Florida Task Force,
the model unit that spawned the
new program. The new task
