Dear Mr. Ubell,

Congress of Psychiatry was welcome.

are figures of the actual EEG records, of the changes associated
with changing blood levels, as well as the type of tables described
inthhis report which can be prepared for you. Also, it would be
useful to present these techniques in the context of clinical electro—
encephalography. We use the same instruments (the EEG) but we do not
assess the paper record; rather we focus on the mathematical data
which is provided by the digital computer data reduction system.

that a more general version can be written for The Sciences. There

take this opportunity to suggest another topic

you as well. In 1976, the Academy sponsored a conference
on Chnonic Cannabis Use, published as vol 282. Since then, the Greek
material has been published (Hashish~ Studies of Long-Term Use, New York,
Raven Press) and the data from the Costa Rica study have been submitted
to the same press. The Jamaica data was published a few years ago (Ganja
in Jamaica).Mouton Press, Paris). It seems to me that these studies are
may

remarkably consistent in failing to find evidence of long term damage
after the use of potent materials. Perhaps hhere is a story in it for

The

Sciences.
