You can still find the congress notes on this, which occured during the summer months. Keep in mind there was no AC or such so the hearing was very short. The paint companies caved since they had new oils to work with anyways, cotton had pretty much taken over the textial market, and the only hold out was of all things those that produced feed.

Some of the transcripts are down right humorous. Like testing it out and flying about the room (no I am being serious). Also one doctor said he had extracted the active ingrediant (THC) and had injected it directly into the brain of a rat which died. The process to extract the THC was not to be invented for several years after that though, so whatever he did inject was not pure THC as claimed, and injecting nearly any foriegn substance directly into somethings brain is ussually fatal.
