HATCH SAYS NO DEAL WITHOUT TOBACCO
WASHINGTON, April 27 (UPI) _ Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, says (Monday) it's
time for everyone to stop the political squabbling and get to work on
anti-tobacco legislation. But Hatch says there can be no deal without
tobacco companies and anything requiring them to pay more than $398 billion
over 25 years will push prices up, forcing kids to turn to marijuana as an
alternative.
