No one thought there was anything slimy or perverted about the Klaw's production of bondage and other sorts of fetish material. After all there was an easy going family atmosphere in the studio, and with Paula handling the ropes and Irving bobbing around in the background, there was a kind of girls together type camaraderie on most of the shoots. Klaw and his models were certainly in Heaven, but this incredible mix of fun and profit couldn't last forever, and within a few years the halcyon days of production would be over. It was Fifties America and the bite-marks of repression were almost everywhere. Even if Klaw's stuff featured no sex, nudity or hairy men in action, it was still regarded as unsavoury material by the FBI Bozos and fame seeking politicians. In 1954, the Kefauver Committee began its investigation into Juvenile Delinquency and Pornography; Klaw was one of the targets for investigation. The die had been cast and the big boys were out to get him. Betty was called to testify and according to legend when asked what she thought of fetish items like high heels, fishnets and sheer black stockings, she said 'Why, Senator, honey, I think they're cute.'
