WASHINGTON - Indian youths, growing up amid rampant poverty and unemployment, are turning to alcohol and drugs in epidemic proportions, the House Interior Committee was told yesterday.
More than half of adolescent Indians drink alcohol and use drugs, an Association of Indian Affairs spokesman testified at a hearing on legislation authorizing programs prevention and treatment.
The Reagan administration encourages Indian self-determination, but withholds support for programs and legislation attacking drug and alcohol abuse among the tribal youngsters. Unger said.
"Statistics cannot measure the family stress and wounds to body and soul that Indian people experience because of prolonged unemployment," Steven Unger told the panel.
Besides drinking and smoking dope, the children use inhalants, such as Lysol, paint thinner and antifreeze, Daschle said.
Rep. Doug Bereuter, R-Nebr., sponsored a bill authorizing a $5 million program to expand and coordinate drug and alcohol abuse prevention and treatment services among government agencies.
than among the rest of the U.S. population.
It would be much cheaper than medical treatment for the problem, which runs into "hundreds of millions of dollars." Beruter said.
Rep Tom Daschle, D-S.D., the bill's co-sponsor, said Indian alcoholism was 451 percent higher
"One study conducted among fourth, fifth and sixth graders on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation shows that as many as 35 percent of elementary school children have experimented with or continue to use alcohol," he said.
percent of them were alcohol abusers.
Rep. John McCain, R-Ariz., sponsor of the bill authorizing treatment programs, said half the Apaches at the Fort McDowell reservation outside Phoenix were under 25, and 65
"It's the most serious health problem facing the Indian people today." McCain said. "I see no improvement. There has been serious regression."
Dr. Robert Kreuzburg, acting deputy director of the Indian Health Service, said the agency spent $24.6 million last fiscal year on 219 substance abuse programs that saw 4,716 patients.
The IHS has 48 hospitals and clinics that render drug and alcohol abuse programs, he said.
The BIA also was against the bills.
"This is such a serious problem I don't think we can do enough." Hazel
Elbert, acting deputy assistant Interior secretary for Indian affairs, testified. "We're doing as much as we can within our available resources."
Her statements irritated Rep. Bill Richardson, D-N.M., a sponsor of one bill, who said that in New Mexico, Indian children begin drinking as young as 10.
"I think the BIA has blatently fail- he said.
Although the BIA was able to cite alcohol and drug abuse programs at 122 Indian schools, McCain said it was "misleading" because many of the programs consisted of brief lectures held once or twice a year.
