Trieste Conference
Believed Nearer as
Envoy Sees Dulles
BY Gornett D. Homer

Yugoslavia and Italy today
were believed moving closer to
agreement on the basis for a
f1ve-nation conference to try to
settle their long-standing dis
pute over Trieste.
Yugoslav Ambassador Vladimir
Popovic emerged smiling from
two hours of conferences on the
issue from the State Department
late yesterday.
I'VE are exploring ways and
means to arrange a conference
as soon as possible so this ques-
tion can be finally settled in an
amicable way" the Ambassador
told reporters.
Declines Further Comment.
Mr.. Popovic, who in the past
usually has been willing to dis
cuSS Yugoslavia's views about the
Trieste problem at length with
reporters, refused any further
comment, except to say he was
always an optimist.
This was taken as sign that
the negotiations may be nearing
success and that the Yugoslav
Ambassador did not want to en-
danger them by premature dis
closures.
The United States, Great Bri-
tain and France have been Striv-
ing for several weeks to arrange
a conference for Italy and Yugos-
lavia in an effort to reach a final
settlement of the Trieste issue.
So far, Yugoslavia insisted
that the conference be held be-
fore a British-American decision
of october 8 to turn over ad-
ministration of Zone A to Italy
is carried out. Italy has been in
sisting that she get control of
Zone A before any conference
is held.
Indications of Agreement.
Secretary of State Dulles has
indicated he favors holding of
the conference before turnover
of Zone A to Italy is completed
and there have been indications
the Italians stand against this
was weakening.
Andrew Popovic and DR.. Mirko
Bruner, first secretary of the
Yugoslav Embassy, conferred
for an hour late yesterday with
Mr.. Dulles and State Depart
ment specialists on the Trieste
problem. They then went out of
Mr.. Dulles Office into a con-
ference room for further dis
cussionS with other specialists.
Asked if new proposals were
being considered, Mr.. Popovic
would say only that discus
sions on both sides are going on.

The voters will choose 353

The rigidity of the election rules
is perhaps best demonstrated by
the fact that there are only a
score more candidates than seats
available.

Repeated hospital tests failed

Recently a Public Health

jr.
DR.. Hayes, a patient man
who got that way through con-
gressional hearings, brought up
to date his testimony before a
special House committee which
for two years gathered facts on
pesticides and chemical food
additives.
From the information now
available" he said, there is
no reason to believe that DDT
which humans INCEST as residue
on food has any harmful eff
fectS."
In his extensive research, DR..
Hayes has found that five parts
per million of DDT in diets of
rats resulted in slight but def
mite liver injury. But continu-
ing experiments have failed to
produce evidence that five
parts or even much greater
amounts, causes any type of in

More important, the re-

DDT builds up in the fatty

leveling-off point. That point
seems to be the apparently
safe figure of five parts per
million.
For that matter, one man

Outside Work for Police Is All Right
But With Certain Rules on Its Nature
By John w. Thompson, Jr.

Outside employment ac-
Cepted by District government
employees ought not to be
banned.
But 1t should be controlled.
Police Chief Bob Murray
focused attention on the prob
lem the other day with his
tough proposed order regulat-
ing jobs policemen can take on
their off-duty time.
His approach is this: A po-
liceman ought to be giving
full time and attention to his
job. A man might not be able
to do this if. for instance. he
reported for the night shift
after working a full day on
some outside employment.
Furthermore, police pay has
recently been raised. This
should have reduced the need
for extra income. And there
are some jobs which might re-
ceive an unethical boost if the
worker is a policeman.
So Chief Murray has in
voked immediate curbs on the
sort of work his men can do.
And, at a date to be announced,
he proposes to ban all outside
work except in hardship cases.
There's no denying the Muir
ray plan is tough. And it
places his men at a disadvan-
tage with other city employees
not so controlled. Fire Chief
Milton Sutton, for instance,
has no idea of limiting the
work of his men-a military
organization like the police.
Some squawks can be expected.
What really is needed is a
study of the whole problem
by the Commissioners leading
toward a general regulation
covering all employees. The rule
could be implemented, within
certain limits, by department
heads tailored to the type of
work. It is easy to see, for
example, why controls on out
side employment should be

nies contest this. They point
out with some merit that mil
Ions of dollars are spent in re-
search before new products are
marketed. The FDA does not
question the good intentions
Of reputable firms, but fears a
one-in-a-million tragic slipup,
or the product of a fly-by-
nighter.
Sulfo Tragedy
Lurking in the background
is the tragedy of 1937-the
death of 104 people from what
they supposed to be a miracle
cure elixir sufanilamide.
This mistake led to the food
and drug act of 1888 under
which more than 5000 thor
oughly tested new drugs have
been approved without hard
ship to the drug industry and
with safety for the public.
Stronger laws also are
needed, says FDA, for regula-
ton of chemicals used to pre-
serve or enhance foods. The
Delaney committee was told
that. of 704 chemicals being
used. only 428 definitely were
known to be safe. That left
276 on the doubtful list, and
the list continues to grow.
Only in meats, which the
Meat Inspection Service safe
guards, is protesting legally,
demanded of chemicals added
to food. This leaves a great
deal up to the integrity and
thoroughness of manufactur-
ers, says FDA.
No New ScondoIs
With vigilance and some
luck there has been nothing to
compare to the poisoned-drug
scandal. But in 1948 the FDA
seized shipments of frozen
peaches on which thiourea had
been used to prevent browning
of cut sections. Rats fed the
peaches died overnight.
Again a substance used for
bleaching flour was found in
1916 to cause running fits" in
dogs.
Only through spot-checking
and sample-taking can FDA
hope to protect consumers
under present regulations.
Their small field force is hard
put to do it, and even when a
questionable shipment is dis
covered, court action is needed
to seize it.
FDA hopes in a short time
to publish a list of tolerances
covering many pesticides -
regulations specifying the res
idues which may remain on
crops for safe human con-
sumption. This will give both
agr1culturalists and inspectors
guide, but will it be the ulti-
mate answer in protection?
Believing not, food and
drug administrators say the
answer is in legislation which
got a start in the last Congress
but was pushed aside in the
stampede of other, possibly
more important, business.

tougher on a policeman than
on a stenographer.
Such regulation would in no
way question the integrity Of
municipal employees. Rather 1t
should protect them against
mistakes in judgment.
Would you say, for example.
it would be poor Judgment II
a traffic official sought to sell
something to the transit COM
pany? It was tried here.
Would you say a District
legal officer who gained
through his official status ad-
mittance to a police question
ing of a serviceman and later
appeared as advisory defense
council for the man before a
military court showed bad
judgment? It was done here.
CuriouSly, in both cases
cited, the employeS-both out
standing public servants-re-
ceived perfunctory oral clear
ance from superiors who clear
ly weren't overly concerned.
Often it takes an eruption to
bring matters to the attention
of top-level city officials. For
example, it took discovery of a
custodial employe lending
money at usurious interest to
fellow workers to touch off the
setting up of a credit union.
Perhaps Chief Murray's move
will provide the spark to whet
the interest of the Commits
sioners in the whole problem.
Remember all those children
who crawled into abandoned
iceboxes and died few months
ago? Prince Georges County
now has adopted an ordinance
designed to prevent the unused
boxes being left around. So
have Takoma Park and sew
eral Virginia communities. A
similar proposal for the Dis
trict still is languishing in the
Corporation Counsel's Office.

Pests Resistance Keeps Up With New Poisons
BY Hermon F. Schoden

A quick over-the-Shoulder
glance confirms the suspicion
that man, locked in an un-
fathomable struggle with the
atom and it's fearful compo-
nents, still hasn't won that
older hassle with pest and
pestilence.
Example: The all-too-com-
mon housefly which only a few
years ago was fair game for
DDT sprayers, now absorbs
any amount Of this once lethal
potion without a grimace.
This means that in some re-
mote laboratory a scientist is
busily concocting another and
stronger mixture he hopes will
outwit the immunity building
pest.
In other laboratories, SCI
entists are developing other in
secticides which will abet DDT,
still the most popular friend of
farmers and orchardmen. in
the mounting war Of pests VS..
production. And in still other
workshops of science. men are
creating chemicals for the
preservation or supposed i'm
provement of foods.
This cycle has brought UP in
the minds of alarmists and
thinkers alike the question of
whether man. in his struggle
for survival. isn't slowly poi
soning himself with the same
chemicals he's squirting on
pests, or injecting into his
food.
Alormine Reports
Not long ago some newspa-
pers rewarded with scare
heads" one physicians report
that several of his patients
were found to have from Is to
20 parts per million of DDT
stored in fatty tissue of their
bodies. What, asked the ply
sician, will be the outcome a
few years from now? Will we
have a population suffering
from liver ailments, heart dis
ease or worse?
It was a question to take to
the guardian of national
health, the Public Health Serv-
ice. and to its chief pharma-
