  Federal Bureau of Narcotics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Federal Bureau of Narcotics (or FBN) was an agency of the United States Department of the Treasury.
The FBN is credited for criminalizing drugs such as cannabis with the Marijuana Tax Act of 1937, as well as strengthening the Harrison Narcotics Tax Act of 1914.
Anslinger retired in 1962 and was succeeded by Henry Giordano, who was the commissioner of the FBN until it was merged with the Bureau of Drug Abuse Control to form the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs in 1968.

 CHAPTER ELEVEN - THE NARCOTICS BUSINESS
The ascendancy of the narcotics agency within the federal government really began only in the final months of the Johnson administration, when it was decided to move the Bureau of Narcotics from the Treasury to the Justice Department.
Ingersoll found that the old Bureau of Narcotics, despite a flamboyant public image (which derived in large part from television series such as T-Men), lacked the intelligence-gathering means and techniques for disrupting the major channels of heroin distribution in the United States.
Geoffrey Sheppard, one of Krogh's young assistants, complained, "Those guys in the Bureau of Narcotics were creating hundreds of thousands of addicts on paper with their phoney statistics." But Ingersoll proved impervious to a barrage of phone calls from Krogh and his staff.

The Essex County Sheriff's Bureau of Narcotics is the second oldest law enforcement unit of its type in the State of New Jersey.
The Bureau of Narcotics is staffed by police professionals who are experienced and regularly re-trained by State Police and federal Drug Enforcement Administration officials in undercover, surveillance and street operations and is widely recognized by the law enforcement community and the public to the detriment of criminals as one of the nation's premier investigative agencies.
While seizing upwards of one million dollars in narcotics contraband each year, the bureau, often coordinating its efforts with the Essex County Prosecutor's office and the federal Drug Enforcement Administration, has proven to be extremely successful in urban and suburban neighborhoods, at schools and in centers of commerce in eradicating all levels of narcotics trafficking.

 Marijuana - The First Twelve Thousand Years - 13
When Anslinger took command of the Bureau of Narcotics, he inherited a philosophy of law enforcement regarding narcotics that he could willingly endorse, namely that "strong laws, good enforcement, [and] stiff sentences" were the bureau's best weapons in the fight to eradicate addiction.
The bureau's budget was cut by $200,000, the number of agents on the payroll was reduced, and Anslinger began to fear that the bureau itself was in danger of emasculation.
Articles were prepared in the Federal Bureau of Narcotics, at the request of a number of organizations dealing with this general subject [uniform state drug laws] for publication by such organizations in magazines and newspapers.

However, her strict narcotics laws (execution by firing squad for convicted traffickers) have discouraged the illicit opium traffic and prevented any of Iran's production from entering the international market.

In general, U.S. Bureau of Narcotics estimates have tended to underestimate the scope of illicit production in Southeast Asia, while the U.N. has tended to minimize production in South Asia, The statistics used above are compiled from both U.N. and U.S. Bureau of Narcotics figures in an attempt to correct both imbalances.
