Marijuana smoke4n
brewing in Omaha
By Randy Essex
Ntwi Editor
A smoke-in is to be held Sept. 16 in Omaha to protest
24 indictments handed down this summer by a federal
grand jury in Omaha, charging a conspiracy to import
marijuana into the United States.
One of the 24 people Indicted Is Youth International
Party chairman Dana Beal. Deal, Who is the co-publisher
of High Times magazine and the Yipster Times, was in
Omaha Aug. 3 for his arrignment.
During a brief press conference with his attorney,
William Kinstler of New York City, Beal announced his
plans to lead a marijuana smoke-in outside the Omaha
Douglas County Civic Center at 17th and Farnam streets.
Beal hired Kunstler, who has defended Rap Brown and
was part of the defense team for the Chicago Seven and
those charged with the Wounded Knee take-over. The two
brought with them the radical air of the 60s.
Members of the YIPPIE party did advance work for the
press conference, and passed out literature complaining
of politics and injustice in the indictments.
BEAL PLEADED INNOCENT at the arriagnment, and
was released on $ 1 0,000 bond.
"It's a last ditch effort against marijuana," Kunstler
said. The New York attorney explained that he thinks
marijuana is about to be legalized across the country, lie
said Omaha may have been picked as the trial site because
it is likely the jury will be conservative.
"These conspiracy indictments have a way of popping
up in out-of-the way places," he said. Kunstler said he
probably will file a motion to hold the trial in BeaTs
home state of New York. Pretrial motions were due Aug.
20.
If the trial is in Omaha, it would be called the "Omaha
24 case," and would be the largest conspiracy trial in
Kunstler's memory, he said.
Beal and other YIPPIE leaders claim the Drug Enforce
ment Agency wanted Beal indicted because of his
knowledge or cocaine usage in the White I House. They
say Beal will be forced to reveal what he knows about
White House cocaine, which would politically hurt Presi
dent Carter before the 1980 election.
BEAL HAS WRITTEN several articles charging that the
"Georgia Mafia"-Carter's inner circle-is involved in a
conspiracy to import cocaine. The conspiracy trial,
presently assigned to Judge Robert Denney in Omaha,
YIPPIE claim, could lead to the Watergate of the '80's.
After the indicments were handed down, Beal dis
appeared from' his Greenwich Village, New York home,
and later turned himself in, after all other indicted parties
had done so.
The charge carries a maximum prison sentence of five
years, and a maximum $1,500 fine.
Why did Beal turn himself in when he thinks he is in
nocent? "I didn't want to end up like Abbie Hoffman," Beal
said. "I've seen too many people go underground and get
really messed up."
So Beal decided to fight, with Kunstler's help. Beal
said he would be at the Omaha smoke-in, hoping for dry
weather.
He explained that a White House smoke-in held in July
didn't work out so well because it rained, the joints
got wet, "and everybody just went back home."

ics, said he has had excellent returns recruiting students
for his tour, entitled A Comparative Study of Selected
European Economics-. He said that he likes to explain
