HEMP FOR AMERICA

Dear Editor:

Thank you for printing "Please Don't Eat the Hemp" [April 11]. I have been
purchasing imported Canadian hemp seed oil for four years and do not think
the Drug Enforcement Administration should be allowed to re-interpret the
laws pertaining to cannabis hemp in order to ban the sale of foods
containing hemp seed or oil.

I do support the Drug Enforcement Administration changing the laws so to
allow America's farmers to grow hemp, which allows me to buy hemp oil from
American farmers.

It is time to reintroduce hemp as a component of American agriculture.

Truthfully,

Stan White
