FREE TO CHOOSE - HANDLING DRUG-ORIENTED PEER PRESSURE - Herbert W Armstrong - May 1982

Herbert W Armstrong

Martin Evans, B.Sc., M.Ed., Director of TACADE - The Teachers' Advisory Council on Alcohol and Drug Education, centered in Manchester, England-was interviewed by Plain Truth writer John Ross Schroeder. Mr. Evans, is drug dependency on the increase in Britain? Drug dependency is on the increase in this country. But one would have to qualify that statement by going back a step and asking what we mean by drug dependence. One of the real problems with that very terminology is that people have tended to think of hard drugs as being the only drugs capable of causing dependency. There has been an enormous increase in prescriptions and the use of drugs like minor tranquilizers such as Mogadon, Valium and Librium. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
