Leasure said this: "We (the subcommittee concluded that the present law which dumps marijuana into the dangerous drug category is a different matter entirely. I'm convinced the problems and difficulties are not the same. "Most importantly, the business of marijuana is with us and is here to stay. It has achieved the epidemic proportions of bootlegging in the 20s. "Among young people and some older people, marijuana has been accepted as part of their social life.

"I don't want to get into the frustrations that have brought this about. Nevertheless, we're not voting to legislate it away. It has to do with our homes, schools and churches."

COMPLAINTS OF Mr. Swanson, who lives at 5 Beacon Street, reportedly involve duties that are not required by cimal system, said it is simple, although he "It's like dollars and cents," he said. "A package marked 2.25 pound net weight should register two pounds, four ounces on the scale." He has tables of equivalent weights available to the shopper for the asking along with other materials ranging from meat charts showing retail cuts and how to cook them to comic books explaining evolution of the standards of measurement to "budget gadgets" indicating cost per ounce of packaged goods. BY LAW, the sealer is required to check every weighing and measuring device in his territory at least twice each year.

In carrying out that duty, Mr. Volkay travelled 4,900 miles last year, testing 1,061 scales and finding 955 correct and 106 incorrect. Of the 18,530 packages he checked, 17,981 had correct weights and 549 incorrect. He said 675 of the 717 measures were correct and 42 incorrect while 785 of the 804 weights were correct and 19 incorrect.

Kennedy describes his brief trip to his ancestral Ireland as "a time of joy and a time of sadness." Joy because he was able to speak at the bicentenary of Trinity College Historical Society, and sadness because it was a reminder of his brother John's visits to Ireland, the Massachusetts Democrat told reporters at Logan International Airport Wednesday. Despite several demonstrations against him during his 2-day visit, Kennedy said his reception in Ireland was "overwhelmingly warm." "All of us in public life are used to it," he said of the demonstrations.

Before leaving for Washington, Kennedy said his wife Joan, who accompanied him to Ireland, would fly back to the United States later this week. 1 i isi-i Hi i i 'ju ii i mi una i I If g'iT 1 I 'J9 B'-'-iM 13 3 1 Kill I Opon I m. to v. I upon nt. to v.

Nearly three-quarters of a billion dollars needs to be distributed before the end of the year to help cities rid the nation's waterways of municipal wastes, said Tom Ferry, director of the department's grant program. The funds are part of the $300 million authorized by Congress and President Nixon to help build sewage treatment plants. Of the total, Ferry said, about $71.5 million has been "We will give priority to making the grants," Ferry said, but a personnel shortage could "possibly result in delays in construction." The unprecedented amount bf money to fight pollution, Ferry explained, has created a serious problem for the staff that must process and evaluate the scores of applications.

The Budget Bureau authorized the department to hire an additional 90 employes, and at least 50 have signed on with the agency, Ferry said. But the department needs another 95 trained men to handle the follow-up investigations, he said. "In addition to administrative evaluation of applications, we have to have reports on the technical aspects of the engineering proposals, and we have to inspect the projects and review them in operation," Ferry stated. By giving priority to allocation of grants, Ferry said, "we expect to have about $650 million obligated under the formula by Dec. 31.

Then it will take two or three months to get the remainder back and reallocate it to states that can use it." The grants must be matched by state and local funds, with the federal government paying 30 to 55 per cent of the total construction costs. Ala. School Law to Be Challenged MOBILE, Ala. (AP) A civil rights leader and an attorney say they will file a federal court motion seeking to have Alabama's new freedom of choice school law declared unconstitutional. John LeFlore and attorney Vernon Crawford of the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund said Wednesday they would file the motion before March 16 the date the Mobile County school board originally set for implementing a school desegregation order.

The board voted Wednesday, however, to direct school officials to follow the new state law and refrain from putting the court order into effect. Board attorney Abram Philips Jr. said in a statement that there might be a question as to the constitutionality of the new law, "but in my view, until it has been challenged and tested and declared unconstitutional, it is valid it is the law." LeFlore and Crawford said in a statement. "It is our contention that no law of the State of Alabama can supersede or interfere with an order of the federal court on the question of school integration." The law was passed by a special session of the legislature last week and signed by Gov. Albert Brewer Wednesday.

It is modeled after a New York State law. Betty Gannett Dies at Age 63 New York (AP) Betty Gannett, a member of the National and Political Committee of the Communist Party U. S. died yesterday at Mount Eden Hospital in the Bronx. She was 63.

"THIS LAW is not enforced equally around the state. Any lawyer in New York City will tell you that he can get his client off Scot free. theless, in other areas, particularly Upstate, the community atmosphere dictates imprisonments. "We talked with some who had gone to jail. They were bitter, cynical, they came out as homosexuals, some as hardened -criminals, in more than 50 per cent of the cases.

It has created a total disdain for our courts and for those of us who make laws," Mr. Leasure said. 'I must be honest with my self. We spent this much time, we saw glaring injustices in the law, we should try to correct it." Mr. Leasure said that lowering the marijuana possession penalties would not affect laws against peddlers or pushers, a point misunderstood by many people, he said.

"I am for putting away pushers for as long as we can," he said. "The solutions to the use of marijuana lie in the very causes that sent them (the users) into it boredom, the inability to find satisfactory achievement in life, disregard for traditional concepts," he said. "We will solve this problem (of drug abuse) in the long run as we solve these other problems," he said. Rosenthal Quits Race for Senate Before Entrance NEW YORK (AP) Rep. Benjamin S.
