Agreed, back in '38 people associated mj with Mexicans, blacks and the underground "jazz" culture and speakeasies. Louis Armstrong got busted for pot too. Not because he was doing anything bad, but because detectives staked out his club and waited until he fired one up, then arrested him. Nice way to treat a world-famous musician eh?
Nowadays the prohibitionists think they are protecting the children from drugs. They know full well that pot's not that bad but they fret it could lead to "other" drugs like crack, meth etc. The irony is, if it were legal there would be less likelihood of mj being a gateway drug. It would be just like alcohol, totally above ground and legit.
