In ethnic group I, 60 were being treated for alcohol abuse (A), 25 for marijuana abuse (B), and 20 for abuse of heroin, illegal methadone, or some other opioid (C). The remainder had abused barbiturates, cocaine, amphetamines, hallucinogens, or some other nonopioid besides marijuana (D). In ethnic group II the abused drug category and the numbers involved were as follows:
