LATIN DRUG KINGPIN UNMASKED BY POPULAR SCIENCE MAGAZINE           May, 1936

    The extent of the marijuana threat in the 1930s is amply illustrated by this photo of an un-named drug smuggler in the years just prior to the enactment of hemp prohibition.

    New York state had one narcotics officer at the time.

A Mexican peddler arrested by California narcotics inspectors, with a bale of marijuana, or Indian hemp. Cigarettes are made from leaves and flowers.
