Drugs in the Tower Atlanta Prison Prompt Investigation
Special to the Banner reports Phillip Weltner of the Georgia prison association alleging prisoners in Fulton county jail can obtain morphine and cocaine if they can pay. He says inmate William Myers was placed in the Tower to cure his habit but drugs remain available inside, while jailers deny trafficking and blame outsiders. The county physician is cited as prescribing small doses to addicts. An urging to end drug traffic in the jail is emphasized.
