Knutson Bill on Cotton
Held Oleo Retaliation
The threat of Chairman Knutson
of the House Ways and Means Com
mittee to lift the limitations on cot
ton imports was seen today as an
other move in the long battle over
repeal of the Federal oleomargarine
t&xc's*
Margarine backers said the dairy
State Republicans’ move late yes
terday obviously was to (1) influence
the Senate which has yet to pass
the House-approved repeal bill, and
(2) get back at Southern Represent
atives for voting for repeal.
Senator Fulbright, Democrat, of
Arkansas said the Minnesotan was
“acting like a spiteful child.” He
noted that the Senate Finance Com
mittee will begin on Monday a two
day hearing on the House bill.
Representative Rivers, Democrat,
of South Carolina, author of the
bill, called Mr. Knutson’s bill “spite
work.” He said Mr. Knutson “will
find that retribution never pays,
especially when it is not righteous.”
Mr. Knutson introduced his bill
late yesterday, saying it would mean
“cheaper shirt# and cheaper bed
linens.” He said his committee will
act next week on his bill.
The move is the second such re
taliation move. Representative
Andresen, Republican, of Minne
sota, who led the butter bloc in the
House fight, already has opened
hearings before a House Agriculture
Subcommittee on a bill to eliminate
restrictions on export of tobacco
seeds, a move also opposed by
Southerners. ■

'Truth Serum'
Found Helpful
To Alcoholics
By the Associated Press
SEATTLE, May 14.—A group of
doctors has reported that the “truth
serum’’ — sodium pentothal — has
been used with considerable success
tn treating the more difficult cases
of alcoholism.
They said the treatment is partic
ularly useful with persons whose
alcoholism results from nervous ten
sion.
Dr. Paul O’Hollaren, assistant
chief of staff of the Shadel Sani
tarium here, made the report.
He said the sodium pentothal had
these effects in helping bring about
a cure:
1. While the patient is under the
influence of the drug he gives the
doctors much information. This is
used to help the person understand
his problems and solve them.
2. At the same time, the drug
makes the person talk freely. He
feels better when he has the prob
lems “off his chest.”
3. The drug calms the person and
this calm lasts for some time after
its use. This helps the person to
“get a grip on himself.”
4. While under the lfifluence bf
the drug, the person Is often given
suggestions to follow out in his wak
ing hours. He does not remember
these but they help him to act in
a way to avoid tensions.
