comparable to 1967 the losses involv ed were not heavy chief white observed that in several cases where thieves and shop lifters were caught by store owners the merchandise was retur- ed and no

problem of drugs in the town and their use by young people he said that there had been some in crease costly through ex perimentation but noted that only a minority group were involved he said that
