	Australian Parliamentary Library - Background Paper 12 1996-97
		Australia's illicit drug laws were slow to develop and evolved in response to three stimuli: anti-Chinese prejudice in the late 19th century, international treaties and the influence of Australia's allies such as the United States, and the growth of recreational and dependent use of illicit drugs in the 1960s and 1970s.
		Illicit drugs continue to be seen by Australians as the major component of the drug problem(8) and are the subject of this paper.
		For the illicit drugs, the average amount allocated for amphetamine/cocaine/heroin use was $45.70 for education, $26.50 for treatment and $27.80 for law enforcement.

	Drug-Law Enforcement Efforts
		The major distributors of illicit drugs conduct their drug transactions in secret, and, as in other activities involving drugs, there are no complainants.
		The most recent major American supply reduction strategy is "eradication at the source." This policy was created in part because of the lack of success in controlling supply through traditional domestic enforcement and international interdiction and in part because advanced technology seemed to make it more feasible than before.
		We can point to the arrest of individuals who traffic in illicit drugs as a benefit, at least in the small percentage of cases where arrest is followed by conviction and punishment But we cannot point to drug enforcement generally and argue that it has had a dramatically successful impact in prohibiting these activities.

	DOLHENTY ARCHIVE: Figures and Moods of the Syllogism
		The middle term (M) is the subject of the major premise and the predicate of the minor premise.
		Thus the major term (P) would be particular in the major premise, since it is the predicate of an affirmative sentence.
		In that case, the major term (P) would be particular in the premise and universal in the conclusion.

		In that case, however, the major term (P), which is the predicate of the major premise, would be a particular term, since it is the predicate of an affirmative proposition.
		Clearly, there are six valid moods for the Third Figure: A A, A I, E A, E I, I A, and O A. Each one follows the rule that the minor premise must be affirmative and the conclusion must be particular.
		The A E and A O moods are invalid because of an illicit major brought into the conclusion.
