Elliott Roosevelt Saws
Father Favored Big )
Veto Power in 1o43
by the Asseeio,ed Press

NEW YORK. Sept. 17.-President
Roosevelt agreed with Premier Stain
as far back as the Teheran Confer
Ience in 1943 that individual veto
power was necessary to the unified
action by the Big Three which he
considered essential in the postwar
world.
Elliott Roosevelt tells the story In
Look magazine this week in the third
OF four excerpts from his forthcom-
ing book.
The visit to Teheran also was A
time Of much weighing of personali-
ties, the excerpt shows. The Presi-
dent was emphatic in his liking for
Stain.
After his first encounter with Nine.
Chang Kai-shek, Elliott felt that
she has 'for so long a time dealt
with people-and especially men
on the basis of winning charm and
simulated interest that by now
1t is her second nature. And I would
lear to watch her first nature at
work. Frankly, it would terrify me. :"
Had to Depend on Chiangs.
When he communicated His
thoughts to his father the elder
Roosevelt replied
Il don't know that I'd put it as
~strongly she's an opportunist
I'd certainly not like to be
sknown as her enemy 80 but China

The British didn't approve island

said, wanting to work up the China

could be attacked, and they did not

Regarding the Balkans, the elder

get strong in Europe. Whether that's
bad depends on whole lot of fac
tors. see no reason for putting
the lives of American soldiers in
jeopardy in order to protect real or
fancied British interests in Europe"
The biggest result at Teheran in
the Presidents eyes, his son says,
was m maktrig clear to Stain that
the United States and Britain were
not aligned In one common bloc
against the Soviet Union. The one
thing that could upset the applicant
after the war" President Roosevelt
said, "is II the world is divided again,

Tubercle-kiIling
Substance Found

According TO recent report in
the Stockholm press, the Swedish
physician DR.. Hans Davide, chief
of the Central meteorological
Laboratory of Stockholm, has dis
covered a tubercle-killing SUBJ
stance, which has proved effec-
tive when injected into animals.
DR.. Davide and two other Swed-
ish medical biochemists, Prof. H.
Theorell and DR.. S. Bergstrom,
are now trying to develop a prac-
teal method of treating human
beings with the same substance.
A special grant has recently been
placed at their disposal for this
research work by the Swedish
National Association for Combat
ing tuberculosis.
Interviewed by the Stockholm
papers, one of these scientists,
Prof. Theorell, says that he and
his colleagues have reached half
way towards solving the problem,
and that they hope to be ready
for experiments on human beings
sometime during 1916. Before
these can begin, however, the sub
stance must be further purified in
order to make it entirely non
poisonous. When this obstacle has
been surmounted, mass production
OF the new remedy will be started
Prof. Theorell says in conclu-
sion that similar experiments with
germ-killing substances are going
on in many countries. He does not
believe, however, that the sub
stance now being evolved in Swe-
den has been tested abroad.
