FREEPORT - At Hs Monday evening, April 28»h open lepslative
session, the Freepnt Village Board a Trustees voted iu approval of a
suggestion by Trosise Ralph Smith to establish a Freep<nt Advisory
Task Fmee on Dregs.
Smith's recommendation came one week after two Freeport resi­dents,
members of the civic
organization Concerned Neigh- ••
bots, charged that "the Village of
Freeport does not have a hudle
on. drugs." (IKE lEADER,
issue of April 24, p. 16.) '

Hises had come to the April 21st
Village Board meetiog to com-pUn
about a "drug house" on

Simpson stated. vAIl we
do with drugs: is posh from one
location to another," usually to
"places whe;e people of cdor or
low economic status live—We
are ready to put our lives on.tiie
line," she said, "because I am
tired of seeing children I knew as
babies walk around like • zom­bies.'
loud and dear message.to those,
who make our streets unsafe and
threaten the security, of our
homes that we will no longer tot- .
etatc those activities that jeopar- •
dize our welfare," stated Smith.
Smith noted that a few years .
before, he had been a partldpant
in the Broadway Task Force, a
non-govemmentil ',' .jcoinsiittee
that addressed the drag problem
in ttiat particular area. After
attaining "successful results,"
he sjdd, it lUsbanded, but tiie
problems recurred in v,;* :rare'as.
"It is my belief,".s^d Smith,
"that we can successfbUy address
our drug problem in * concerted
effort on a Village-wide basis by
instituting the Freeport Advisory
