MORNING GLORY
Drug Danger Negligible
(N.Z P.A.-Reuter—Copyright) LONDON, July 21. Britain's Home Secretary, Mr R. Jenkins, has been advised that possible drug danger from people chewing morning glory seeds is negligible. He has agreed to lift the voluntary suspension on sales. In March, when it was feared the seeds might be misused because of their L.S.D. (lysergic acid) content, the seeds trade agreed to suspend sales pending investigations by the Pharmaceutical Society. No evidence of harm resulting from misuse of the seeds had come to notice in Britain, the Home Office said.
