For Jaundice Cure

A young man. convicted here for
housebreaking, died yesterday in
Federal penitentiary after volun-
tarily taking part in a search for
the cure of yellow jaundicc.
He was identified as John F
Gavin, Is, of Washington. Nc
fixed address was given. He was
sentenced last year to 16 months
to four years at the Northeastern
Federal Penitentiary in Lewisbure
on charges of housebreaking.
Warden George w. Humphrey
said Gavin died from "the part he
played in hepatitis yellow jaun-
dice) research project"
The exact nature of the project
or Gavin's part in it was not speci-
fed by the warden. He said the
experiment was "a defense project
which holds great promise for
humanity"
The warden added that Gavin's
death was the third resulting from
the participation of more than
1000 prisoners in various research
projects in Federal prisons since
the early, part of World War II.
The project is being conducted

AIibis Free Two Suspects

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 10
Police have released a father and
son who we're questioned three
days in connection with the $7,128
robbery Staying Of Grocer Gard
Young and three children.
Wendell Hall, 40, was freed yes
terday at Fresno after lie detector
tests. His 27-year-old son Travis
was freed here shortly afterward.
The Halls were arrested Satur-
day after an anonymous informer
told San Francisco police that two
men had asked him to join them
in a plot to rob a man named
Young.
Inspector Michael Doherty said
both men had excellent alibis for
October 10-the date Mr.. Young,

Mr.. Colladay, an attorney, said

Foreign News Leisurely.
The foreign news was a bit dated
by the leisurely communications.
Latest word was that the French
Assembly was getting ready to
name Louis Napoleon Emperor.
In England, Lord Byron's only
daughter. Lady Ada Augusta
Lovelace. had died at 37-the same
age as her famous father at his
death. There were meager reports
of earthquakes in Sicily and
Hungary. In Italy, the Pope had
received assurance from the King
of Siam that he would stop perse-
cutting Christians. In Germany,
several hundred persons" were at
Hamburg, ready to emigrate to the
United States to Mormon City,
Salt Lake" The British were busy
campaigning in India: the Turks
were waging deSultory warfare
against insurgents in Central
Syria. Somewhere on the high
seas was Commodore Matthew
Perry, bound for the mysterious
islands of Japan.
Some of the editorial comment
that day had distinctly modern
flavor.
There were, said the Times, "un-
mistakable indications of jealousy
that (none) of the acknowl-
edged leaders have been asked by
the new President to aid in the
selection of his cabinet, of in shap-
ing his intended policy.
". It is clear that majority
of the party leaders are to be
in their aspirations,
and it is equally clear that they
feel so exultant in their strength
and so full of the fight they did
not get opportunity to expend on
political foes, as to be in just
the humor to have a family row,
of all organization and
concert of action"

Post.E|ection Slump
In News Reflected
In Dec. Is, 1852, Star

The first edition of The Star. on
December 16. 1852. contained little
news. There was, in fact, little
going on.
The Nation was in its traditional
post-election news slump. Millard
Fillmore the last of the Whig
Presidents. was packing his be-
longings, ready to turn over the
White House to Democrat Frank
lin Pierce. Congress, which had
convened for its second session 10
days earlier. was begged down in
tedious tariff debate.
Other newspapers carrying
Washington news on that day
picked up a few fragments that
The Star staff overlooked, includ-
ing the fact that the weather was
terrible.
In the New York Times, the
hottest item was speculation about
a secret meeting of the Senate
the day before. The reason for 1t,
said the correspondent. was the
illness of Vice President-elect Will
liam H. King of Alabama, who was
suffering from tuberculosis. Read
ers were informed that he would
probably never live to be Vice
President. There is studious con-
cealment of the true situation, but

Corporate Bonds Turn
Down; u. 5. and Japan
Issues Stir Interest
BY Arthur Merims
Associoted Press Financial Writer

NEW YORK, June 21.-The cor
porate bond market moved lower
in sluggish trading this week as in
vestorS turned attention to the
financial activities of two nations,
the United States and Japan.
After registering a new 1852
volume record of $18,456. 900 par
value last week, bond trading on
the New York Stock Exchange
dropped to $12,380.O00 this week.
Main reason for the decline of in
tereSt in corporates was the new
I23s per cent six-year Treasury
bond offered to the public Monday.
This was the second bond Offer
ing in less than a month by the
Treasury to prepare for the gigan-
tic Federal deficit expected in the
fiscal year beginning July /. Pres
ident Truman has said the differ
ence between Federal income and
what the Government spends will
be almost $14.5 billion.
The earlier Offering, a 2A per
cent nonmarketable bond, brought
in less than 1913 million. The new
marketable issue, designed to bring
in $3.5 billions. drew more than
$l1 billion in subscriptions and en-
couraged the Government to ex-
tend allotments to nearly $4.25
