A new treatment for drug addiction, based on experiments with dogs which were made “dope fiends,” is proposed in a report made to the National Academy | of Sciences here by Prof. Wilder D. Bancroft of Cornell University. 'The dogs studied by Prof. Bancroft | were relieved of their apparent craving for morphine without torturing with- | drawal symptoms by injections of the drug known as sodium rhodanate. The treatment is based on Dr. Ban"mfli‘ “thick and thin _brain” hypothesis, which he already has used to explain various human mental abnormalities. This theory holds that the common forms of insanity are due either to thickening or thinning of the colloidal material of the central nervous system, either process leading eventually to un- consciousness through a period of ex- citement. The dispersal or agglomera- tion of the brain colloids can be brought about by various drugs. | Rhodanate Is Effective Disperser. Morphine acts as a colloid coagu- | lator. Sodium rhodanate is one of the most_effective colloid dispersers which can be administered simply and with | safety. A dog responds to morphine in much the same way as a man, finally developing an insatiable craving, to off- set which larged and larger doses are required, until finally the system can stand no more So Dr. Bancroft, with his collab- orators, Robert S. Gutsell and J. E. Rutaler, jr.. took six dogs and, after | making _preliminary studies of = thelr “personalities,” started injecting them with small doses of morphine. This was calculated to create a “habit” with- out producing profound disturbanc When the habit was well established— so that the dogs began to wag their tails whenever the investigator ap- proached with the hypodermic needle and seemed to welcome the pain of the injection for the sake of the soothing drug—the morphine was withdrawn abruptly. Two of the animals were left | |to which he had been brought by | days of morphine. “withdrawal symptoms” similar to those of the human drug addict when the supply is withdrawn. These symp- toms continue for about 12 days. The others, with one exception, showed no nervousness -or other physical symp- toms. They appeared perfectly con- tented without the drug and began to gain weight. The sodium rhodanate, dispersing the agglomerated brain stuff, seemed to forestall any craving of the system for the morphine to which it had become habituated. The other dog was a_queer_sort of animal to begin with, Prof. Bancroft explains. Before the experiment he was a wild, scatter-brained creature, who used to spend hours barking at the sky, and showed no interest in human beings, although he was not malicious had been a human being, he probably would have been classified as a mental case Eleven days on morphine changed him into a comparatively normal dog. He became less wild and nervous, ceased | barking at the sky and showed more interest in human beings. He had been | brought to the approximate point of normality at which the other dogs in the experiment started. The morphine injections were continued for five more days. Then he became restless again, very unapproachable, but not mean. He tended to stand faced away from human beings, sometimes with his head in the corner of his kennel. There was a hunted, maniacal look in his eyes, and he became so restless and unap- E;fl&chable that it was hard to inject m. Normal Condition Returns, Then the morphine was withdrawn and the sodium rhodanate treatment started. ‘Three days of this brought him back to the condition of normalcy 11 When_ the treat- ment was stopped he again became wild and restless, The explanation advanced is that this dog was too “thin-brained” in the first place. The thickening ef- fect of something like the morphine was ! needed to make him normal. In his report to the National Academy Dr. Bancroft insists that “the way is FalseTeeth Don't allow your false teeth to drop or slip when you eat, talk or laugh.
