claims Monday of two doctors
that the drug produced distor-
tion of perception and reality
in test subjects and the opinion
of another doctor that alcohol
produces similar results.
John Kaplan, a law professor
at Stanford University, told the
commission today in prepared
testimony he believes marijuana
to be dangerous but added re-
search since 1894 has yet to
show how dangerous the drug
may be.
"If the marijuana laws work-
ed," he said, "I would be strong-
ly in favor of them but they,
like Prohibition, do not work.
They divide the young from the
old and are propelling us to a
national crisis of confidence of
major dimensions. Therefore
they must go."
Another medical expert told
the commission he was not
ready to recommend legalizing
the drug but "I do know that
the present penalty structure it-
self is already out of keeping
with :what we know about the
drug."
