The DuPont Chemical Company had, in 1937, been granted a patent on a sulfuric acid process to make paper from wood pulp. At the time DuPont predicted their sulfuric acid process would account for 80% of their business for the next 50 years. William Randolph Hearst, who made millions from paper production, became a strong advocate for elimination of hemp. DuPont also had just invented nylon, and saw rope made from hemp fiber as a rival product, a significant threat.

Harry J. Anslinger, who headed the Bureau of Narcotics, was the man behind anti-marijuana cult film “Reefer Madness.” Anslinger was an extremely ambitious man, and he recognized the Bureau of Narcotics as an amazing career opportunity — a new government agency with the opportunity to define both the problem and the solution. He immediately realized that opiates and cocaine wouldn’t be enough to help build his agency, so he latched on to marijuana and started to work on making it illegal at the federal level.
