Description
Deputy Attorney General Richard G. Kleindienst announced Saturday that "Operation Intercept"--an open secret for a week--had already begun. Its goal: to stop the flow of drugs across the border, then eradicate its source in Mexico. The program is aimed primarily at marijuana but will not neglect such hard drugs as heroin. A1964 photo
