It is my understanding that he was the first Commissioner of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics. He served in that position from
August 12, 1930 – May 1962.
Under: Presidents Herbert Hoover, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry S. Truman, Dwight D. Eisenhower, and John F. Kennedy.
Harry J. Anslinger quotes:
"There are 100,000 total marijuana smokers in the US, and most are Negroes, Hispanics, Filipinos and entertainers. Their Satanic music, jazz and swing, result from marijuana usage. This marijuana causes white women to seek sexual relations with Negroes, entertainers and any others."
"Marihuana leads to pacifism and communist brainwashing"
"Reefer makes darkies think they're as good as white men."
"Marijuana is the most violence-causing drug in the history of mankind."
"the primary reason to outlaw marijuana is its effect on the degenerate races."
"Marijuana is an addictive drug which produces in its users insanity, criminality, and death."
