Furniture may not be taken with them, and it may not be legally sold. The emigrants are required to write and often to rewrite statements that they had never had it so good...
Fact is that, so far, NIH 7519 has had such limited trials on human patients that doctors cannot be sure how potent a painkiller it is-or, consequently, what dose to give. Addiction dangers are directly related to continued use. Most of the hopeful evidence on addiction comes from monkeys; though tests are under way with narcotics addicts at the Public Health Service Addiction Research Center in Lexington, Ky., results are only preliminary...
