Committee on the Institute for Drug

A significant number of letters were received in response to this request and were published in the Journal over the next few months (22). Basically all of the correspondents favored the idea of an institute for drug research, although they differed somewhat in their vision of how it might operate. In the meantime, the New York Section adopted a resolution to refer the matter to the Advisory Committee of the American Chemical Society, urging that the proposed institute be undertaken under the auspices of the Society. The Advisory Committee authorized President William Nichols to appoint a committee to report on the endowment that would be needed to support such an institute and to outline the policies under which it should be operated. The Committee on the Institute for Drug Research was appointed in February 1919 with Herty, to nobody s surprise, as Chairman. [Pg.101]

The election of Jimmy Carter as President in 1976 ensured a continuation of tolerance to drug use, particularly marijuana. In March 1977, the Special Assistant for Health Issues to the President, and high officials from the DEA, the State Department, the National Institute of Drug Abuse (NIDA), NIMH, the Customs Service, and the Justice Department appeared before the House Select Committee on Narcotics Abuse and Control to argue for the decriminalization of marijuana. The President himself repeated a similar theme before Congress later that year. [Pg.366]
