MARIJUANA LEADS TO HARSHER DRUG USE

Back in the '60s when I was a young police officer, one of our duties
was to take sick prisoners out of the holdover to the hospital for
treatment for withdrawals.

En route to St. Louis City Hospital No. 1, I would ask the prisoner
how they got started on heroin, and the stock answer was they started
on reefer (marijuana).

America, wake up. This is a dangerous drug and leads to harsher drug
use.
