Lip Cancer Not Caused
By Smoking, Doctor Says
Fy the Associated Press.

/ Fy the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April s.-Sunshine
instead of smoking is the cause of
so-called smokers cancer of the
lower lip among workmen, DR..
George c. Andrews, New York City,
reported yesterday at a forum held
by the American Society for the
Control of Cancer. Excessive over
exposure to sunlights ultraviolet

cause of skin cancer.
Smoking by women" said DR..
Andrews" has helped to convince
cancer students that so-called
smokers cancer of the lower lip,
which occurs largely in laborers, is
not due to smoking, as previously
thought. but rather to chronic in
fiammation of the lower lip from
habitual Sunburn"
He said one-third of all skin can

NEWARK, N. j., April 8.-Explo-
sives experts of the Newark Police
Department yesterday delicately un-
screwed the top of a suspicious
looking object found aboard the
seized Italian freighter Aussa and
discovered it was an oil filter.
The cylindrical-shaped object had
been under careful surveillance since
Saturday and police had taken every
precaution when the possibility had
been raised that it might be a
"thermite bomb"
Shortly before the police dug it
up from a vacant lot behind head
quarters where it had been buried
while police awaited return to duty
of the proper experts, an Italian

object was nothing more than q

RIVER OF FREEDOM

A nation of people is never conquered. The movement of civilized mankind toward complete individual freedom and self determination of gov- ernment by the majority is sometimes held up but never ceases.
 These truths which we must all recognize were brought forcefully to the attention of Congress a few days ago by Usher L. Burdick, Representative from North Dakota.
 Representative Btrdick spoke primarily in the interest of more aid to China Any agreement with Japan or any world peace move which fails to relieve China of Japanese oppression is not step in the direction of total peace, he pointed out
 Burdick also told the House of Representatives that it is an impossiblity for the German army to conquer the Norwegian people the French, the Poles or the Czechs. Right now in the flush of victory, the Nazi chieftains may believe themselves to be captors he pointed out, but right is eternal and might is temporary"
 One thing we particularly liked about Rep Bur dicks talk was the simple way in which he com pared the progress of the human toward the development of free world to the flow of mighty river. Here's what he said a.
 ITO bring home to you exactly what I mean,

That river, together with its joint sister, the Mississippi is the longest river in the world. In my country the fall of the river in it's course to the is very gradual not over two feet to the mile, and the current moves on to the south carrying everything before it. Its power is great that, in high water it crashes through it's banks and makes new channel at any point where its force is directed have often stood the banks of this river and observed that the current-where I stood-was hurrying north instead of south, yet

NEUTRALITY STATESMEN

Personal grudges and partisan politics played big role in the close House vote on the neutrality revision bill, but there also were some sterling examples of courage.
 Isolationist pressure groups stop ped at nothing in their last-minute efforts to defeat the bill-including even threats of physical violence.
