REACTION TO Thursday column
=. on the barium chloride product
was like an atomic bomb drop
ping upon the city. Residents were
shocked.
An employee of the News-Herald
upon reading the column E.
admitted his child had worn one
of the tubes for seven days F.. to
cure an ear ache. He said it did not
help one bit.
The doctors name was purposely
omitted The United States govern
ment are at this time charging the
makers of the product not the
doctor who sold it to his patients.
Assistant district attorney John
c. Ray informed us Saturday that
the number of users lis beyond the
imagination. Thousands upon
Thousands of dollars have been in
vested in the two inch tubes g.
which are worn to cure illnesses =. q.
and to keep sickness away from the
wearer. Ills remarks about the pro-
duct cannot now be stated but
will be disclosed at the proper
time.
In this case the United States
government charges that the
makers claims for the product are
false.
As stated here Thursday E.
barium chloride sells for forty cents
pound at Wyandotte drug stores.
The government charges that the
tubes are filled with two ounces Of
barium chloride.
Investigation disclosed that the
tubes have been selling in Wyan-
dotte for $4,000 apiece.
The government became inter-
ested in the case when patients Of
the doctor complained to them.
The medical staff of the Wyan-
dotte General Hospital were deep
" aroused by the column. We were
informed that they themselves had
been watching the situation closely.
They are concerned because when
the government cracked down no
particular doctors name was men,
toned. The following communica-
ton Is from them:

President Truman CriticiZes Race Discrimination

WASHINGTON, Oct. 12-(P)- President Truman sharply criti- cized race discrimination by mak- ing public a letter concerning the refusal of the use of Constitution al Hall here to Negro musician. The President said, however, he was powerless to interfere with the ban imposed by the OAR.
 The D.A.R. president sent a let ter to Negro Rep. Adam Powell, Democrat of New York, whose wife, Hazel Scott, a pianist, was refused the use of the OARS Constitution hall for a concert on October 20.
 The President wrote Powell Artistic talent is not the exclu- sive talent of any one race or group. We have just brought to a successful conclusion a war against Totalitarian countries which made racial discrimination their state policy. One of the first steps taken by the Nazis when they came into power was to for bid public appearance of artists and musicians whose religion or origin was unsatisfactory to the master race"
