Mitchell predicts U S study will label marijuana dangerous
New York AP A.G. John Mitchell argued a Nixon administration plan to form a national commission on marijuana will conclude the drug is dangerous. He cited potential psychological dependence and risk of hard-drug use, and opposed legalization while acknowledging current laws may be too harsh. He discussed policy with Dick Cavett and noted sniffing marijuana but would not advocate smoking.
