MAYBE MORE DRUG TESTING WOULD HELP

The article about drug testing employees for cannabis ( "At Work, a Drug 
Dilemma," Personal Journal, Aug.  3 ) has me thinking of the time 
Rep.  Patrick Kennedy got into a car accident and we discovered he was 
addicted to pain killers.  The article reminds us that to work a cash 
register at Wal-Mart you have to pass a drug test.  Mr.  Kennedy's case 
reminds us that congressmen do not have to pass a drug test.  It just goes 
to show which job requires sober deliberation.
