HASHISH TO BE SOLD AT DRIVE-THROUGH STORES

Dutch authorities plan to open two drive-through shops next year where
``drug tourists'' can legally buy marijuana and hashish.

The officials in Venlo say they want to make it easier on Germans who flock
to the southern Dutch border town for drugs by opening two coffee shops
with drive-throughs selling drugs such as marijuana and hashish.

They also want to keep the ``drug tourists'' from lingering in the
Netherlands, where so-called soft drugs are legally sold in small
quantities. Drug tourists draw street dealers selling illicit harder drugs,
creating ``an environment that generally makes ordinary people feel
unsafe,'' said Venlo official Tamira Hankman.
