Mysterious Allergy
Turns Alcoholics
Into Teetotalers
c
.Grand Rapids, Mich. Health
authorities today sought the
cause of" mysterious allergy
that could turn en alcoholic into
b teetotaler.
o
The allergy already has made
abstainers of seven employees
at a cabinet and hardware plant
here. s
The workers gave up drinking
beer tend liquor at least tem
porarily last fall when they
found the beverages turned their
faces bright red and gave them
severe heart palpitations.
Workers 'Lit Up'
A new employee laid the case
before the State Health depart
ment recently when he learned
oth.er workers complained they
also "lit up like Christmas trees"
after a little elbow-bending.
"Horseplay," said unbelieving
health authorities. They suspect
ed a prankster put antabuse a
drug which causes a violent re
action to alcohol into the
plant's drinking water.
A thorough investigation con
vinced them it was no joke. " "
Samples of floor sweepings,
air and other possible sources of
the allergy were sent to the de
partment's laboratories. Other
workers will be . questioned .
when results are known, they
said.
In Scattered Sections
The firm employes about 100
persons and the seven workers j
affected were in widely scat
tered parts of the plant. .
George E. Tubich, regional
supervisor of the Health depart
ment's division of Industrial Hy
giene, said the reaction may be
"synergistic." That means one
drug is felt only when a second
drug sets it off, he said.
"Any one of a million differ
ent things may be causing the
allergy," Tubich said.
"We haven't had a complaint
from a teetotaler yet," he added.
"But if this keeps up we'll soon
have a whole plant full of ab
stainers." Reno Harold's Club

PGE To Disregard
Pelton Ruling
Portland (U;R) Portland
General Electric company said
today it would disregard state
ments of Oregon Attorney Gen
eral Robert Y. Thornton and
proceed with plans for Pelton
dam on the Deschutes river.
Thornton had claimed that the
project was in violation of state
laws.
Thomas Delzell, chairman of
the board of PGE, said "it is dif-l
ficult for us and our legal coun
sel to comprehend upon what
basis Mr. Thornton, who is a
lawyer, has been able to "reach
a professional opinion running
exactly contrary to that of the
highest legal authority in the
land the United States Su
preme Court."
The high court had upheld
PGE's right to proceed under a
Federal Power Commission li
cense, despite objections from
state agencies. Thornton con
tended that Idaho Power com
pany was also violating state law
by proceeding with construction
of a hydroelectric project in the
Hells Canyon reach of the Snake
river.
Thornton said neither firm re
