LS ' By JIM FREEMAN Sentinel NeWs Staff At least one Meigs Countian will likely play a big role in selecting another school funding system now that the Ohio Supreme Court has found the current system unconstitutional. From Columbus, Jennifer Sheets, a Pomeroy auorney and president of Stale Board of Education, told 'The .. Daily Sentinel that the Supreme Court clearly ordered the state legislature 'to stan from scratch on a new school funding system. The .existing school funding system dates back to 1825 when the leg islature first required [lropeny. owners to pay school taxes . The problem, according to the plaintiffs in a lawsuit against the state, is that the degree of property-wealth disparity among Ohio's school districts is among the widest ·in the nation. The state Supreme Court agreed, finding that Ohio's entire system. of school finance is unconstiiulional based on the "thorough and efficient clause" in the state constitution which makes the legislature responsible for funding a thorough and efficient systern of public schools. Sheets explained. "I thin~ its a good decision. .. Sheets said. "I think all Ohio citizens . want their childre.n to go to good clean schools ... it's very important." The Supreme Court : . · Declared . unconstitutional Ohio's systcfll of financing elementary and secondary public schools; -- Eliminated the operation of the school foundation program, the filnding system's reliance on local property taxcJ>, the use of the spending reserve and eincrgeney school loan proEJ'arns; -- Ruled the lack of sufficient state money for construction and- maintenance of school buildings must be · eliminated; ------- fees and court costs: However.

GOTI: What do you !hink of marijuana use for medical purposes' DEAR READER: I strongly ~·. favor this, because TilC (the active ,; ingredient in marijuana) has IX:en · ' shown in many medical studies to be an effective antidote for the pain and dread associated with chroni~ diseases. such as cancer and AiDS. as well as the violent nausea caused by chemotherapy. · I endorse the resolutions that have been passed in Arizona and , California, allowing the medical usc of marijuana by prescription. I dis. :agree with the cont rary view of fed. eral auihorities. whose righteous posturing serves only to deprive sick patients of effective therapy. My opinion is shared by many physicians. In fact, as you are probably aware, an editorial in the Jan. 30, 1997, New England Journal of Medicine supported the medical use of marijuana, while deploring the "renexive ideology and political correctness" of federal officials. The points made by Dr. Jerome Kassirer in the editorial are worth summarizi ng. The government policy states that marijuana may have adverse long-term effects and that its use can lead to addiction. This perspective is misguided and heavy-handed. Prescription THC would be limited to the terminally ill , for whom side effects and addiction are inconsequential. Kassirer also reminds us that physicians are currently permitted to prescribe morphine, cocaine and other narcotics to reJieve pain and suffering. These drugs, while . extremely effective, are exceedingly dangerous: They can -- and often do -- kilL There is no risk of death from marijuana. . Next is the problem of scientific proof of therapeutic efficiency. The government's position is that further studies need to be performed. Kassirer counters that pain; nausea and marked discomfort are difficult to quantitate in controlled experiments; the important factor is whether the drug is relatively safe (which marijuana is) ahd whether a terminally ill patient feels relief. Mor:eover, prescription TilC has been available for decades as Dron· abinol, but the medication is difficult to use and has not been widely . prescribed. Smoking marijuana pro· duces a rapid bl~ concentration of TilC, which patients themselves can control. Finally. io say that governn\ent.sanctioned marijuana would sisnal to the young that drug use is acceptable is "specious," accordin1 to Kassirer. Most healthy1 young people are intelligent enough to recognize the difference between medical DR.OOTT Even though a federal judge ntled in 1988 that marijuana should he classified as a Schedule 2 drus (potentillly addictive but useful for some medical conditions), the Drug Enforcement Administration overruled the judge's decision. Now, it appeirs! further legal challenges will .. . be necessary befor:e the issue can be r:esolved, ·yet another example of bow the rights of the terminally ill are undermined by the absoluie power of bureaucrats. . . . . . scnbmg pam-reltevmg drugs _that are _far mo~ lethal and potentoally soctally dtsrupttve than THC, II seems reasonable and humane that mari)uana be legalized for valtd medtcal uses.
