Exploration Scientist
Recovering From Illness

DR.. r. c. Lorenz, Agriculture De-
partment scientist, is recovering in
Doctors Hospital from malignant
malaria contracted during an explor-
alton of prospective rubber-growing
areas In Panama, Costa Rica, Ven
ezuela, Colombia, Haiti and the
Dominican Republic. it was learned
today. His colleague. Hans G.
Sorenson, has been released from
the hospital after treatment for the
same ailment.
DR.. Lorenz, Mr.. Sorenson, o. d.
Hargis and r. j. Seibert returned to
this country last week from their
explorations. Mr.. Seibert reported
that large consignment of budwood
of superior rubber trees developed in
the plantations of Malaga and the
Netherlands Indies has arrived safe
ly in Haiti. This party Of rubber
explorers was the last of four expedi-
tions sent to Latin America by the
Agriculture Department to return.
Reports from the four survey par
ties, it is expected, will provide the
basis for the specific agreements un-
der which the United States and
the governments of the South and
Central American governments are
cooperating to rehabilitate and re-
vive the rubber industry of the
Western Hemisphere.

Archibald MacLeish, librarian Of
Congress, announced yesterday the
original, signed manuscript of
Giuseppe Mazzini's famous essay,
La Concordia," has been given to
the Library of Congress by Barnet
j. Boyer of New York City.
Describing the essay as IAN elo-
quent memorial to the cause of lib
erty, and one closely associated with
a critical period in American his
tory" Mr.. MacLeish said the manu-
script has a direct connection with
the history of freedom in the United
States.
He pointed out the essay had been
donated originally by Mazzini to be
sold for the benefit of wounded
soldiers during the American Civil
War.
In la Concordia" Mazzini, the
unifier and founder of pre-Fascist
modern Italy. reaffirmed his devo-
ton to the ideals of freedom and
attacked the then prevalent tend
ency of many of his republican
supporters to compromise their de-
sire for political liberty for the sake
of geographical and national uni
fication under the monarchy.
A typewriter English transla-
ton of the essay and three portraits
and biographical sketch of Mazzini
have been bound into the volume
containing the manuscript.
