PUT LEGALIZATION OF POT ON BALLOT

Tracy Ryan, chair of the Libertarian Party of Hawaii, points out that 
our state should put the legalization of marijuana issue to the 
process of referendum, submitting a legislative measure to the voters 
for approval or rejection ("It's time to legalize marijuana and reap 
its many benefits," Star-Advertiser, Island Voices, Jan. 29).

Our Legislature is too spineless to address this issue at hand, so 
voters of Hawaii must themselves decide by establishing an 
initiative, putting this question to the democratic test.
