This 3,281-page, seven-volume classic report on
the marijuana problem in India by British and
concluded: "Viewing the subject generally, it
may be added that moderate use of these drugs is the
rule, and that the excessive use is comparatively
exceptional. The moderate use produces practically no
ill effects." Nothing of significance in the
report's conclusions has been proven wrong in the
intervening century

Departmental Committee
on Morphine and Heroin Addiction, Report |
(The Rolleston Report): This landmark study by a
distinguished group of British doctors appointed by
the government codified existing practices regarding
the maintenance of addicts on heroin and morphine by
individual doctors and recommended that they continue
without police or medical society interference. In
coming to this conclusion, these physicians displayed
a humane regard for the addicts in their care,
perhaps due to their view of the nature of narcotic
addiction: "Me condition must be regarded as a
manifestation of disease and not as a mere form of
vicious indulgence." The British addiction
experts took pains to state that they did not agree
with the opinions of "some eminent physicians,
especially in the United States" that addicts
"could always be cured by sudden
withdrawal."

Panama Canal Zone
Military Investigations (US Military, 1916-29) |
After an exhaustive study of the smoking of
marijuana among American soldiers stationed in the
zone, the panel of civilian and military experts
recommended that "no steps be taken by the Canal
Zone authorities to prevent the sale or use of
Marihuana." The committee also concluded that
"there is no evidence that Marihuana as grown
and used [in the Canal Zone] is a 'habit-forming'
drug."

by the National Commission on Law
Observance and Enforcement (Wickersham Commission
Report on Alcohol Prohibition) |
This report is important because it was the
official Federal Government investigation into
alcohol Prohibition - while Prohibition was still in
effect. This report is interesting because the
are in such apparent contrast to the evidence amassed
by the Commission. The evidence showed that
Prohibition enforcement was, at best, ineffective
and, at worst, spawned law enforcement corruption on
a grand scale. Prohibition was not a success and this
report explains the reasons why.
Among the significant findings of this report
were:
- Alcohol use declined during the first two or
three years of Prohibition (a trend that had
begun before Prohibition started) but rose
every year thereafter. There was, in
particular, an increase in the use of
distilled liquors. There was also evidence of
increased alcohol use and addiction among
minors.
- Enforcement of the laws was disorganized and
ineffective, with employee turnover of more
than 50% in some years. It seems apparent
from reading the report that law enforcement
could not have had a significant impact on
the illegal distribution of alcohol and even
the recommended improvements in enforcement
would not have solved the problem.
- Corruption was rampant with up to ten percent
of the enforcement employees being discharged
for cause in any given year.
Despite this, the Commission recommended that
Prohibition be continued but that law enforcement
efforts should be improved in several respects.
The evidence, however, was overwhelming that
Prohibition was not a success and it was repealed two
years after this report was issued.

Mayor's
Committee on Marihuana, The Marihuana Problem in the City
of New York commissioned by Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia,
written by the New York Academy of Medicine, and
published by the City of New York in 1944 |
This study is viewed by many experts as the best
study of any drug viewed in its social, medical, and
legal context. The committee covered thousands of
years of the history of marijuana and also made a
detailed examination of conditions In New York City.
Among its conclusions: "The practice of smoking
marihuana does not lead to addiction in the medical
sense of the word." And: "The use of
marihuana does not lead to morphine or heroin or
cocaine addiction, and no effort is made to create a
market for those narcotics by stimulating the
practice of marihuana smoking." Finally:
"The publicity concerning the catastrophic
effects of marihuana smoking in New York City is
unfounded."

Interdepartmental
Committee, Drug Addiction, (The First Brain Report) |
When the Brain Committee first met at the
invitation of the minister of health, its mission was
to review the advice given by the Rolleston Committee
in 1926. That advice had been to continue to allow
doctors to treat addicts with maintenance doses of
powerful drugs when the doctors deemed it medically
helpful for the patient. Brain I reiterated that
advice and in this first report recommended no
changes of any significance on the prescribing powers
of doctors. This report expanded on one important
point alluded to in Rolleston-the authenticity of the
existence of "stabilized addicts."
While many American experts doubt their existence,
this report explained, "careful scrutiny of the
histories of more than a hundred persons classified
as addicts reveals that many of them who have been
taking small and regular doses for years show little
evidence of tolerance and are often leading
reasonably satisfactory lives." Six "case
histories of known stabilized addicts" were
included in an appendix. They were mature, older
patients, functioning normally on what would be huge
doses of drugs by American standards. "Mr.
F.," for example, a clerical worker, was
receiving the equivalent of 200 milligrams of
morphine tablets each day. It is likely that these
patients and their doctors would be dealt with as
criminals in the United States.

Drug Addiction: Crime
or Disease? Joint Committee of the American Bar
Association and the American Medical Association on
Narcotic Drugs, Interim and Final Reports, 1961: |
This report was the result of the only major
combined study of drug policy made by two of the most
important professional societies in the country.
Chaired by attorney Rufus King of Washington, D.C..
the committee presented a direct challenge to the
tough policies of Federal Bureau of Narcotics
Director Harry Anslinger, a philosophical ancestor of
the previous "drug czar," William Bennett.
The blue-ribbon committee included a senior federal
judge and was advised by Indiana University's Alfred
Lindesmith, one of the most distinguished addiction
scholars in history. The report observed, "Drug
addiction is primarily a problem for the physician
rather than the policeman, and it should not be
necessary for anyone to violate the criminal law
solely because he is addicted to drugs." The
report concluded that drug addiction was a disease,
not a crime, that harsh criminal penalties were
destructive, that drug prohibition ought to be
reexamined, and that experiments should be conducted
with British-style maintenance clinics for narcotic
addicts.

Interdepartmental
Committee, Drug Addiction, Second Report, (The Second
Brain Report) |
Brain II has been consistently misinterpreted by
leading American scholars and officials. It did not
recommend the dismantling of the British prescription
system nor the compulsory registration of addicts, as
has been claimed. Instead, Brain II urged that
- doctors who wished to prescribe
"restricted drugs" to addicts for
the purpose of maintenance be required to
obtain a special license from the Home
Office;
- treatment centers be established for treating
addicts who were to be regarded as sick and
not criminal; and
- doctors and other medical personnel be
mandated to "notify" the Home
Office when they encountered an addict in the
course of their professional work.
Originally, the category of restricted drugs
included heroin and cocaine; now, dipipanone
has been added.
The core of the British system remains, however,
and in recent years has been reinvigorated.
Approximately 200 doctors with special licenses are
free to prescribe all drugs, including the restricted
medicines, for maintenance of addicts. Also, any
doctor, unlike those in the U.S., may prescribe all
of the other drugs for maintenance, including, for
example, injectable morphine and methadone. Brain II
in the end was aimed at controlling a few
overprescribing doctors, not at adopting the American
system of treating addicts as the enemy.

(The Wootton Report) |
This study report on marijuana and hashish was
prepared by a group that included some of the leading
drug abuse experts of the United Kingdom. These
impartial experts worked as a subcommittee under the
lead of Baroness Wootton of Abinger. The basic tone
and substantive conclusions were similar to all of
the other great commission reports. The Wootton group
specifically endorsed the conclusions of the Indian
Hemp Drugs Commission and the La Guardia Committee.
Typical findings included the following:
- There is no evidence that in Western society
serious physical dangers are directly
associated with the smoking of cannabis.
- It can clearly be argued on the world picture
that cannabis use does not lead to heroin
addiction.
- The evidence of a link with violent crime is
far stronger with alcohol than with the
smoking of cannabis.
- There is no evidence that this activity ...
is producing in otherwise normal people
conditions of dependence or psychosis,
requiring medical treatment.

Canada |
of Inquiry
into the Non-Medical Use of Drugs, Interim Report, (The
Le Dain Report) |
The distinguished Canadian experts on this
governmental commission were led by law school dean,
later Supreme Court Justice, Gerald Le Dain. The
report was similar to the other great commission
reports in terms of its non-martial, calm approach to
the facts and in its belief that marijuana use did
not constitute a great threat to the public welfare.
The official governmental commission was remarkable
in the extent to which its report portrayed casual
drug users as decent, thoughtful citizens whose views
deserved the fullest possible hearing by the
government in the process of developing drug control
strategies.
A mother of four and school teacher was quoted in
the report as saying: "When I smoke grass I do
it in the same social way that I take a glass of wine
at dinner or have a drink at a party. I do not feel
that is one of the great and beautiful experiences of
my life; I simply feel that it is pleasant, and I
think it ought to be legalized." The commission
did not ask for that change immediately but instead
recommended that serious consideration be given to
legalization of personal possession in the near
future. The report also urged that police and
prosecutors go easy on casual users and keep them out
of jail as often as possible.

An Inquiry into the Legal History of American Marihuana
Prohibition by Professors Richard J. Bonnie & Charles
H. Whitebread, II, Virginia Law Review, Volume 56,
October 1970 Number 6 |
This is the most definitive history of the
marijuana laws. See for the
author's short version of this history.
The authors concluded that the marijuana laws were
motivated by three major factors.
- The first state marijuana prohibition law
came in Utah in 1915 and was enacted into law
along with a number of other Mormon religious
prohibitions.
- The early state marijuana laws in the
Southwest and West were passed because
"All Mexicans are crazy and marijuana is
what makes them crazy." That is, they
were the result of racial prejudice against
newly arrived Mexican immigrants.
- The other early state marijuana laws were
passed out of the fear that opiate addicts,
who had been deprived of legal access to
opiates by the Harrison Tax Act of 1914,
would turn to marijuana. In other words, they
were afraid that opiate use would lead to
marijuana.
The first Federal prohibition on marijuana was
passed for reasons which can only be described as
"nonsense," including the racial reasons
listed above, as well as allegations that marijuana
caused young lovers to elope. Interested readers may

Magazine |
(Highly
Recommended) This is a landmark study, a
"must-read", used as a basic textbook at
major universities. It presents a comprehensive,
fascinating and highly readable overview of the
entire drug issue. It is certainly one of the first
books which should be read by anyone who wants to
know about this subject.
The recommendations in this report included:
- Stop
emphasizing measures designed to keep drugs
away from people.
- Stop
publicizing the horrors of the "drug
menace."
- Stop
increasing the damage done by drugs.
- Stop
misclassifying drugs.
- Stop
viewing the drug problem as primarily a
national problem, to be solved on a national
scale.
- Stop
pursuing the goal of stamping out illicit
drug use.
- Consumers
Union recommends the immediate repeal of all
federal laws governing the growing,
processing, transportation, sale, possession,
and use of marijuana.
- Consumers
Union recommends that each of the fifty
states similarly repeal its existing
marijuana laws and pass new laws legalizing
the cultivation, processing, and orderly
marketing of marijuana-subject to appropriate
regulations.
- Consumers
Union recommends that state and federal taxes
on marijuana be kept moderate, and that tax
proceeds be devoted primarily to drug
research, drug education, and other measures
specifically designed to minimize the damage
done by alcohol, nicotine, marijuana. heroin,
and other drugs.
- Consumers
Union recommends an immediate end to
imprisonment as a punishment for marijuana
possession and for furnishing marijuana to
friends.*
- Consumers
Union recommends, pending legalization of
marijuana, that marijuana possession and
sharing be immediately made civil violations
rather than criminal acts.
- Consumers
Union recommends that those now serving
prison terms for possession of or sharing
marijuana be set free, and that such
marijuana offenses be expunged from all legal
records.

National Commission on Marihuana and Drug Abuse |
This commission was directed by Raymond P. Shafer,
former Republican governor of Pennsylvania, and had
four sitting, elected politicians among its eleven
members. The commission also had leading addiction
scholars among its members and staff and was
appointed by President Nixon in the midst of the
drug-war hysteria at that time. While the commission
supported much existing policy, it produced two
reflective reports, this being the final
comprehensive document, which recommended research,
experimentation, and humane compromise. The first
recommendations of the commission were:
- Possession of marihuana for personal use
would no longer be an offense, but marihuana
possessed in public would remain contraband
subject to summary seizure and forfeiture.
- Casual distribution of small amounts of
marihuana for no remuneration, or
Insignificant remuneration not involving
profit, would no longer be an offense.
The recommendations in this reports were endorsed
by (among others) the American Medical Association,
the American Bar Association, The American
Association for Public Health, the National Education
Association, and the National Council of Churches.

The Nation's Toughest
Drug Law: Evaluating the New York Experience, by the
Joint Committee on New York Drug Law Evaluation, of the
Association of the Bar of the City of New York |
This commission was formed to review the
Rockefeller drug laws, the toughest in the nation.
The report basically concluded that tougher sentences
had provided little, if any, benefit. Instead, they
had increased the incentive for drug sellers to
commit violence and had clogged the criminal justice
system. The report also found that tougher penalties
had done nothing material to reduce drug use but had
instead exacerbated some of the existing problems
with drug abuse.

, The Drug
Abuse Council |
A 1972 report to the Ford Foundation,
"Dealing With Drug Abuse," concluded that
current drug policies were unlikely to eliminate or
greatly affect drug abuse. This conclusion led to the
creation and joint funding by four major foundations
of a broadly based, independent national Drug Abuse
Council. The council reviewed and assessed laws,
programs, and projects-federal, state, and local,
private and governmental-related to use and misuse of
psychoactive drugs. In its final report, the
council's board of directors offered a set of
observations considered central to the process of
reaching mom consistent, coherent, and responsible
approaches to drug use and misuse.
- Psychoactive substances have been available
throughout recorded history and will remain
so. To try to eliminate them completely is
unrealistic.
- The use of psychoactive drugs is pervasive,
but misuse is much less frequent, and the
failure to make the distinction between use
and misuse creates the impression that all
use is misuse and leads to addiction.
- There is a clear relationship between drug
misuse and pervasive societal ills such as
poverty, racial discrimination, and
unemployment, and we can expect drug misuse
so long as these adverse social conditions
exist.
- The price of an effective strategy to
eliminate drug misuse through the criminal
law would be perceived by many Americans as
too high in terms of invasions of privacy and
abrogations of individual liberties.
- Drug laws and policies attend insufficiently
to the problems of people misusing drugs and
too much to the properties of drugs
themselves, as though the drugs were somehow
inherently to blame.
- Too many Americans have unrealistic
expectations about what drug policies and
programs can accomplish.
- We have a regrettable tendency to blame our
drug problems on others, failing to recognize
that our drug problems are products of our
own national experience.
The council's directors then offered a set of
suggestions, Principal among them are the following,
- Treatment for drug dependence should be
available chiefly because people need help,
rather than as a crime control or behavior
control method.
- There should be a major study of the effects
of drug laws and their enforcement on
personal decisions to use or not use illicit
drugs.
- Legislative efforts to decriminalize at both
state and federal levels the possession of
small amounts of marijuana for personal use
should continue.
- The report ends with the recommendation:
"... that serious consideration be given
to the use of state and local option as a
means of attempting solutions appropriate in
one place but not in others. Local options
could encourage greater flexibility and
ingenuity rather than reliance on an
unrealistic, rigid homogeneity in national
drug policy. We need to respond to the
diversity of people who use and misuse drugs,
base all our policies on a consistent set of
principles seeking to discourage misuse, and
keep our seemingly innate drug-using behavior
within reasonable limits through means. which
do not themselves produce more harm than they
prevent.

An Analysis of
Marihuana Policy, National Research Council of the
National Academy of Science |
The NAS Committee on Substance Abuse and Habitual
Behavior was composed of some of the leading American
experts on medicine, addiction treatment, law,
business, and public policy. These experts reviewed
all of the available evidence on every aspect of the
marijuana question. The committee then recommended
that the country experiment with a system that would
allow states to set up their own methods of
controlling marijuana as is now done with alcohol.
Under this approach, federal criminal penalties would
be removed, and each state could decide to legalize
the drug and impose regulations concerning hours of
sale, age limits, and taxation.
In the same vein as all the previous major
objective studies, this report stated that excessive
marijuana use could cause serious harm, that such use
was rare, and that, on balance, the current policy of
total prohibition was socially and personally
destructive. The report placed great emphasis on
building up public education and informal social
controls, which often have a greater impact on drug
abuse than the criminal law. Regarding the
possibility of disaster for our youth under
legalization, the report observed:
There is reason to believe that widespread
uncontrolled use would not occur under regulation.
Indeed, regulation might facilitate patterns of
controlled use by diminishing the "forbidden
fruit" aspect of the drug and perhaps increasing
the likelihood that an adolescent would be introduced
to the drug through families and friends, who
practice moderate use, rather than from their
heaviest-using, most drug-involved peers,

This is the ruling of the DEA's own Chief
Administrative Law Judge which arose as the result of
a suit against the Federal Government, seeking to
reschedule marijuana for medical purposes. Before
issuing his ruling, Judge Francis Young heard two
years of testimony from both sides of the issue and
accumulated fifteen volumes of research. This was
undoubtedly the most comprehensive study of medical
marijuana done to date. Judge Young concluded that
marijuana was one of the safest therapeutically
active substances known to man, that it had never
caused a single human death, and that the Federal
Government's policy toward medical marijuana is
"unconscionable."

AIDS and Drug Misuse,
Part 1, Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs, 1988;
Part 2, 1989 |
"The spread of HIV is a greater danger to
individual and public health than drug misuse,"
declared the leading drug abuse and health experts of
the United Kingdom who sit on this distinguished
quasi-governmental advisory group. This concept
operated as the guiding principle in this commission
report, one part issued in 1988, another in 1989. In
stark contrast to the Bush administration's war
plans, the British council provided a comprehensive
health plan that seeks to prevent the use of drugs,
as is the American goal. However, the plan has
realistic goals regarding drug abusers; abstinence in
the American mode, where possible, but above all
else, health and life. Thus, the Advisory Council
accepted the lessons of the "harm
reduction" programs of the Liverpool area and
recommended that they be spread to the entire United
Kingdom. Some of these lessons involve needle
exchanges and prescribed drugs for addicts.
The report even went beyond the Liverpool
experience when these leading British experts quietly
observed, "We believe that there is a place for
an expansion of residential facilities where drug
misusers may gain better health, skills, and
self-confidence whilst in receipt of prescribed
drugs." Thus, while the United States is
planning more prison space for drug addicts, the
United Kingdom is contemplating more hostels where
addicts could be taught to live more healthy, more
self-confident and more productive lives in the
community.

for
the State of California |
This panel, appointed by the state legislature of
California to regulate all research on controlled
substances, reviewed drug policy and recommended that
"the legislature act to redirect this, state
away from the present destructive pathways of drug
control." The report noted that we had followed
a path of prohibition over the last fifty years and
concluded that this policy "has been manifestly
unsuccessful in that we are now using more and a
greater variety of drugs, legal and illegal." In
addition, the failure of prohibition has resulted in
"societal overreaction (that] has burdened us
with ineffectual, inhumane, and expensive treatment,
education and enforcement efforts." They
recommended a move toward the formulation of
"legislation aiming at regulation and
decriminalization" and the winding down of the
war on drugs.
The Research Advisory Panel made three specific
recommendations for initial legislative action. These
were
- permit the possession of syringes and
needles;
- permit the cultivation of marijuana for
personal use; and
- in order to project an attitude of
disapproval of all drug use, take a token
action in forbidding the sale or consumption
of alcohol in state-supported institutions
devoted in part or whole to patient care or
educational activity.
The panel recommended immediate and innovative
action, concluding it is "incontrovertible that
whatever policies we have been following over the
past generations must not be continued unexamined and
unmodified since our actions to date have favored the
development of massive individual and societal
problems."

"The Twin
Epidemics of Substance Use and HIV" The National
Commission on AIDS |
This indictment of current drug policy focuses on
the relationship between the spread of HIV and drug
use. The commission criticized the federal
government's failure to recognize that these are twin
epidemics and found that the "strategy of
interdiction and increased prison sentences has done
nothing to change the stark statistics" showing
spread of AIDS by drug users. The commission singled
out the Office of National Drug Control Policy for
ignoring AIDS and "neglecting the real public
health and treatment measures which could and must be
taken to halt the spread."
The commission put forward five recommendations:
- Expand drug treatment so that all who apply
for treatment can be accepted into treatment
programs.
- Remove legal barriers to the purchase and
possession of injection equipment.
- The federal government must take the lead in
developing and maintaining programs to
prevent HIV transmission related to licit and
illicit drugs.
- Research and epidemiologic studies on the
relationships between licit and illicit drug
use and HIV transmission should be greatly
expanded and funding should be increased, not
reduced or merely held constant.
- All levels of government and the private
sector need to mount a serious and sustained
attack on the social problems of poverty,
homelessness, and lack of medical care that
promote licit and illicit drug use in
American society.
The National Commission on AIDS could be described
as the echo of the British Advisory Council on the
misuse of drugs in its report on AIDS and drug
misuse, as it made virtually the same policy
recommendations. The commission concluded that
"the federal government must recognize that HIV
and substance use is one of the issues of paramount
concern within the 'war on drugs.' Any program which
does not deal with the duality of the HIV/drug
epidemic is destined to fail." The commission
urged the federal government to move away from a law
enforcement approach in controlling drugs toward a
public health approach, which to date has "been
seriously neglected."

Government |
This was the largest study of marijuana laws by
the Australian Government.
The report identifies five policy options for
controlling marijuana:
- total prohibition;
- prohibition with civil penalties for minor
offences;
- partial prohibition;
- regulation; and
- free availability.
The report states in the :
Our review suggests that two of the five
legislative options discussed in are inappropriate in contemporary Australian
circumstances. They are the options which we have
characterised as 'total prohibition' and 'free
availability'. The arguments for rejecting these
options will not be repeated here as they are
detailed in .
We point out, however, that the cultivation,
possession and supply of cannabis remain an offence
in all Australian States and Territories (and using
it is an offence in most), even though cannabis use
is commonplace and little evidence exists that
cannabis itself causes significant harm when used in
small quantities. Australian society experiences more
harm, we conclude, from maintaining the prohibition
policy than it experiences from the use of the drug.
