ERRATA: Last week,
we incorrectly listed the Mothers in Prison, Children in Crisis rally as
taking place on Friday, May 9. The correct date is Friday, May 7.
See http://www.drcnet.org/wol/079.html#rally
for the rest of the information. Please pass this correction along
to anyplace your forwarded the original article.
NOTE: In issue #77,
we provided an 800 number for the American Bar Association, to order copies
of their report on the ineffectivess of increased penalties on drug use
(http://www.drcnet.org/wol/077.html#abastudy).
If you've had trouble getting through on the 800 number, try their direct
number at (312) 988-5000. Also check out the ABA's report on the
federalization of crime (article at http://www.drcnet.org/wol/079.html).
