Poisoning

the eggs served at dinner We'd
nesday night showed they con-
tanned a deadly poison Sodium
flouride, commonly used in in
secticides. He cited the POSSIBLE
ity that roach powder, kept in a
barrel in a cellar under the
kitchen, was put into the eggs
during their preparation instead
of powdered milk, stored near
b.. The powders are similar in
appearance.
He said an inmate kitchen
helper preparing the eggs left
the pot unattended for five or
ten minutes while he went to
the cellar in search of powdered
milk. 1t is possible, he said, that
the poison could have been put
into the eggs during this time.
Rats used in a test by DR..
Frank MEME, University of Or
egon bacteriologist, showed no
i'll effects after eating egg yolks
taken directly from cans of fro
zen eggs, but died in three to
five minutes after consuming
left-overs from the hospital din
ner.
A total of 467 inmates who
ate the eggs became violently
i'll in matter of minutes after
ward. All were nauseated, COM
plaired of stomach cramps, pa
ralysis of the legs and difficulty
in breathing.
The strong lived; the weaker
died in agony
DR.. Evans said many still were
critically i'll and he feared the
death toll might increase within
the next day or two.
The frozen eggs were part of
a shipment of $3.50 pounds dis
tributed several months ago to
various western states. They
came from the east or midwest
and originally were purchased
as a leasc-lend shipment but
were diverted apparently be-
cause of a lack of proper ship
ping space.
Eggs of the same shipment
had been used in school lunches
and institutions for months
without any sign of i'll effects.

spokesman said the struggle was
expected to grow rapidly in fury
and scope now that heavy Allied
units have driven within reach
of the main German defensive
positions around the two strong
holds.
In one clash, a German COL
umn made four assaults on an
American-British-F French force
inland to the south and each
time was thrown back with
heavy losses.
Finally, this column retreated
after American field gunners
had broken its offensive
strength.
In every Nazi column the AL
lies encountered the newest
equipment that the enemy has
and the spokesman said this was
considered clear sign of Hit
ler's determined effort to save
Tunisia.
FAIL TO SCORE
The Germans combined their
assault with the use of dive
bombers and low-flying fighters
in typical Nazi attack tactics,
he said, but the Allied force did
not bulge one inch"
Despite the Germans use of
their best medium tanks and
Stukas, he said, Allied losses
were minor" in this opening
phase of the battle of Tunisia.
The action from which the
Germans fell back with one
third of their tanks knocked out
and with other heavy casual
ties" the spokesman said, occur
red between 80 and 40 miles
from Tunisia where the Nazi
armored column collided with a
British advance force in the
north, near the coast.
