...dangerous." Six months ago NIMH began growing its own marijuana for researchers on 23 acres of land owned by the University of Mississippi. The Institute is currently funding around 50 marijuana research projects, but only a few of them involve experimentation with human beings. Social Psychiatrist Joel Hochman of the U.C.L.A. Neuropsychiatric Institute goes so far as to charge that "the Government is giving legitimate researchers such a hassle because they are afraid our work will show no serious side effects, and if there are no serious side effects then there is no rationale for keeping the use of marijuana...
With the burden shifted to hired shoulders, there are parties for younger and younger offspring. Says Parties Unlimited's Coordinator Dorothy Hochman: "We try to discourage parents from one-year-old parties, but still they have them.

What Hochman wanted was busy plants, busy workmen, manufacturers who understood cost accounting, kept overhead down, prospered...
...steps toward his goal, Hochman had three concrete ideas: 1) a $1,500,000-a- year promotion fund (the union offered to contribute, $100,000) to plug dresses and Manhattan's claim to Paris' old title of world's fashion centre; 2) establishment of a school of management, staffed by experts who would teach the manufacturers how to operate without waste; 3) an "efficiency clause" giving the union the right to demand good' management and penalizing employers, who failed to provide...
