Paul Rogers, M.C. U.S. Congress Washington, D.C. Ref: A&C-3—1-Drugs Dear Congressman Rogers, You were kind to answer my letter so optimistically, have I no experience in suggesting legislation, I have tried to outline the form that seems to me, to serve the needs. The commission idea comes from the potential power of focussing the energies of a group of members on 3 defined problem-- not one so broad, that the number of options are great and the funds diverted to provide representation of all points of view. This, in my mind, is the potential flaw with the President's view of drug abuse control— no man is so equipped by training or experience to lead the field in and while prevention, detention, military problems, education, 355. Furthermore, you will be pleased to know, that in the repeated admoiishment from your office and from the response to academic segment of our society, two important steps have been taken in regard to the antagonists: naloxone has been invested in a silastic implant, and is now in animal trial in New York; and naloxone pamoate has been produced, found safe in dogs, and is soon to go into human trial for duration and efficacy tests in our laboratory. In addition, there is another, potentially more potent antagonist, which is now in human toxicity trials (BC 26OS—Bristol); and the first trials of lealpha-acetylmethadol show a three times a week schedule to be safe, and as effective as high dose, daily methadone in addicts. Perhaps, the commission will come at a time when it can reap the harvest of these early plantings, but there is so much to be done that I still feel a specific body with a specific charge may be appropriate now. I shall be pleased to suggestions at your convenience. come to Washington to discuss these Sincerely yours, Max Fink , M.D. Professor of Psychiatry 7. -mv w. .1.“ -w.
