SANFORD'S EFFORTS WILL PROVE FRUITLESS

The good citizens of Sanford ("Sanford citizens fight illegal drugs," April 
20, 1A), can meet all they want, but unless they begin to understand that 
the root cause of the "drug problem" is the fact that certain drugs are 
prohibited, they won't get anywhere. Why are there no meetings about legal 
drugs? Because they're legal!

The only way to reduce the harm and heartbreak of illegal drugs is to allow 
users once again to purchase clean, cheap, quality tested drugs at the 
corner store, just as tobacco users do.
