Maxi ziConcer Secret Found

Columbus, June 20 - (UP)- A 10-year Nazi secret, discovered in the bomb-wrecked laboratories in Jena, Germany, today gave Veter- ans Administration doctors hopes of new attack on cancer.
 The secret was a little known German microscope that was found among the ruins by an American Army colonel, Arthur T. Brice.
 Brice, former VA medical techni- cal expert, brought the phase mic roscope" back to this country along with motion picture films of cell growth taken through the instru- ment.
 VA officials said that the motion picture was significant because it showed. the mysterious processes of living cells better than ever be- fore'' in medical history.
 The instrument now gives scien- tists their first clear view of how living cells subdivide and multiply.
 The chief characteristic of cancer cells Is their unbridled multiplica- tion, officials explained. The cells and their life pattern are different from normal body cells.
 If some fundamental difference could be proven between the life processes of cancer cells and other cells, they said, "a new method of attack on cancer might eventually result"

Alienation .SuitStorts
 Woman With 23-Year-
 Old Son Plaintiff

A 5000 alienation of affections suit, brought by Mrs. Katherine Lombardy Palladino of Waterbury against Mrs. Latina Nardi Crosse of Oakville, went on trial before Superior Court Judge Howard w. Alcorn today.
 Mrs. Palladino wife of Paul Pal ladino, claims her husbands love and affection were alienated by the "arts, blandishments and Seduc- tions" of the defendant.
 Mother of three children, includ- ing a 23-year-old married son, Mrs. Palladino testified today that she was still ready to take her husband back. They were separated several years ago. She said she was one of three sisters who married three brothers.
 The couple were married 25 years ago.
 A divorce action, instituted by the husband, is still pending in the court. Mrs. Palladino filed a cross complaint alleging cruelty, and the case was entered on the uncontest- ed list in 1942, but no action has been taken on it since then.
 The plaintiff claims her husband began "to go out" with the defend- ant in 1888, and that she saw them together many times.

Tokyo, June 20-UP)-A former Japanese army major tried unsuc- cessfully to commit hara-kiri to- day to "admonish with death" the sins of war criminals against the emperor.
 Bald, thin Yoshio Maxi, 6o, chose grass plot outside the Diet build ing for his suicide try.
 He used an ingeniously-contrived weapon. It consisted of a seven- inch dagger tied to the end of a bamboo shaft about six feet long on which were inscribed poems meaning, T die calmly"
 He propped the dagger, the blade pointing to his upper left abdomen, on the grass and fell upon it. In doing so, he held up a large death message which asked that the body of "an aged citizen of western Jap," be allowed to remain there to "serve as lesson to evil-doers."
 Police, however, carried Maxi to a hospital where physicians said he had good chance to live,

Libel Suit Dismissed

San Francisco, June 20 - (UP) Federal Judge Louis E. Goodman, describing the plaintiff as "evasive, arrogant and brazen" today dis missed Q consolidated $1 ,5OO, 900 libel damage suit filed by Miss Vivien kellems, Connecticut industrialist against the CLIO. Labor Herald and three California labor leaders.
 Miss KellemS' suits-one for $5OO.- 900 and another for $1,OOO,OOO - were based on the Labor Herald's description of her acts as treason able operations" The newspaper re- ferred to Miss Kellems' advocacy of public tax strike" and her cor respondence with Count Frederick Karl Sedlitz, black-listed German, in Argentina.
 Goodman ruled that it was flair comment" for the Labor Herald to use the term reasonable opera tionS."
 When she urged the public to refrain from paying taxes, in my opinion it was within fair comment to use the adjective reasonable, '' Judge Goodman said.
 T watched her demeanor on the witness stand. She was evasive, ar- rogant, brazen and argumentative in defending her right to do and say as she pleased"
 Goodman cited Miss Kellems' cor respondence with Sedlitz as another reason why the newspaper could describe her acts as Unreasonable. ''
 Tt was contrary to law and con- cepts of loyalty for her to write to Sedlitz-be he Nazi or just a German-in time of war, She her. self admitted writing at least one letter in violation of the Trading with the Enemy Act, knowing Sed- litz was on the proclaimed list"
 Miss Kellems was not in court when the decision was announced. She had returned to Connecticut after appearing at the trial.

Grand Multi Takes Refuge With Forouk

Cairo, June 20- Premier Ismail Sidhy Pasha announced today that the Egyptian cabinet had decided that the grand multi of Jerusalem, whose presence in Cairo was dis closed a few hours earlier, was a political refugee and not 8 war criminal.
 The governments attitude toward the multi. denounced by Britain as pro-Fascist enemy and trouble maker, evidently assured him of the sanctuary he sought in Egypt after his flight from Paris.
 The multi had taken refuge" with King Farouk. and his presence here was hailed by the Arabs. who regarded his appearance in the Middle East as sign that he was ready to lead them in their fight against the Jews over the Palestine situation.
 No Law Prevents Haven
 Foreign Minister Ahmen Lutfi el Sayyed Pasha said Egyptian law does not prevent the government from sheltering political refugees.
 Questioned as to whether such an attitude with regard to the multi would jeopardize Anglo-Egyptian treaty negotiations, he replied:
 Such considerations will not af- feet our stand"

 flee was drafting representa-

 To Oppose Jews
 The mystery of the muftPs where abouts since his flight from Paris three weeks ago was solved by an Egyptian communique. It disclosed that he had emerged from conceal ment to lead the Arab fight against the Palestine Zionist movement.
 The British spokesman conceded that Britain was not likely to ask formally for the extradition of the criminal charge against him other than an old Polestinian accusation of complicity in a political murder.
 What would you do with him?" the spokesman was asked.
 We have always been very evas- i've on that subject" he replied.
 He said the report of the mufti's arrival in Cairo "does not appear to fit in with the statement of the French government that he left Paris. May 29 on an American plane"

burden.
 Among his outstanding accom- phshments, since taking office in 1945, has been that of the invest ment of $1O million, of the states SIT million highway fund, in gov- ernment securities, resulting in a profit of $425,000 in appreciation and interest.
 These funds had lain dormant in state banks since 1940, during the war years, because of lack of mater ialS and labor to undertake high way construction. Because state statutes did not permit the invest ment of general funds apparently no previous state treasurer had at tempted to overcome this restrain ing law. Personally fighting for state legislation to permit such in- YeStmentS he Shouldered 8 bill through the General Assembly and effected the profitable investment. State Gossip
 This entire manuver has since be- come a topic of gossip within state circles because prominent Republi- cans attempted to take full credit for the measure. Carroll, according to intimate state circles, originated the idea and fought for the legiSla- tion. Aware of the practical logic of the move, COP. functionaries jumped on the band-wagon at the last moment inducing their General Assembly cohorts to support the measure. They then tried to take credit for the original idea.
 We have the profit in the treas ury and that is what is most inn portant" he observed about the af- fair.
 Republican officials, grudgingly or otherwise, have admitted that Bill Carroll has brought business acu- men and astuteness to his state po- sition. He is highly considered in financial circles.
 Handling state funds is to me the same as sound banking practice on big scale" he told this writer. The state is in the investment business for it's clientS-the tax payers"
