Los Angeles Teacher
Fired for Silence
On Communist Link
BY the A,soeiassd Press

LOS ANGELES, Mar. 31.-A
Los Angeles school teacher who
refused to answer questions dur
ing current hearings of the
House Un-American Activities
Committee was fired last night
by the Board of Education.
Technically. the board sus-
pended Abraham MinkuS, termi-
mated his salary and gave him
80 days to take his case to Su-
perior Court If he wishes.
The board held that Mr.. Min
kus' refusal to tell the commit
tee whether he is or was a Com
muniSt constituted immoral and
unprofessio1al conduct and evil
denced unfitness for service. The
board several months ago adopt
ed a regulation holding that
employees declining to testify be-
fore a duly constituted body of
this type are subject to dis
missal.
The Un-American Activities
Committee, expecting to finish
its current locally -televised hear
ings today, has arranged a ses-
sion April Z for witnesses who
object to being televised.
Three Refuse TO Talk.
Yesterday, after clashing with
Mr.. Minkus. who first appeared
last Friday, the committee en-
countered three more unfriendly
witnesses who refused to tell
about Communist Affiliations, II
any. They were dancer Libby
Burke, writer David Robson and
his wife Naomi Robson.
Com mittee Counsel Frank
Tavenner told Miss Burke that
DR.. Giovanni Rossi Lominitz,
former University of California
atomic scientist at Berkeley, had
testified previously he attended
q meeting at her home in Berke-
ley. When Mr.. Tavenner asked
her II that was true she declined
to answer, or say whether she
knew Mr.. Lominitz. She did ad-
NIT she was a student at Berke-
ley between 1912 and 1946.
Abe Burrows Mentioned.
A friendly witness, Dwight
Hauser, Al, radio writer and for
mer Communist, testified that
at least one Communist meeting,
in 1914, was held at the Holly
wood home of comedian Abe
Burrows. Mr.. Hauser said such
meetings were closed and he
didn't see how person who was
host could help knowing it was
a Communist Party meeting.
Mr.. Burrows, appearing before
the committee in Washington
last November IL, said he did
not deny having been with Com
munists and my own sloppiness
of action. my own thoughtless-
ness, gave them the right to
think I was a member" How
ever. Mr.. Burrows claimed that
II never took the final step" of
official, dues-paying membership.

No comment Is necessary. In

that want to ridicule the lndi-

indeed, I hope they are happy

Rather we should mock the re-

ness with which it reports such
pathetic accomplishments.
On the other hand, I feel that
it i'll becomes us, as the richest

An anti-American cartoon OF
the Statue Of Liberty now hangs
on the walls Of the Tretyakov
Gallery-Moscow's greatest art
museum. At first glance. you see
the head Of the statue, the IA
miliar classic face Of the goddess,
beautifully drawn and In bronze
green colors-and then you no
tice that she Is weeping. with q
long teardrop hanging from her
left eye.
On closer inspection, you see
something somewhat different

drop turns out to be a policeman's

Jan. IS, 1852
Naturally all Of us wonder and
talk about the security meas
ureS" to which we are subjected
here. Aside from the obvious and
official regulations which control
our movements and the equally
obvious, but not admittedly ofii-
cial, isolation from Russians,
there is the question Of "shad-
owing" and plants" or. as would
have been said in another era,
agents provocateurs.
It is fairly obvious that we are
followed almost always when we
are outside Of Moscow; and
equally easy to spot the trailers
within the city at least half the
time. OF course, often-or per-
haps always-when we think we
are not shadowed, it may just be
that it is being done cleverly.
For instance, after I moved
from the Metropole Hotel into
"Vesnina." I'd often get home
thinking I had not been followed,
but within a few minutes Of my
return, the telephone call box
outside the house would ring for
one Of the militiamen who were
always stationed there. The only
thing I could figure out about it
was that 1t was some one check
ing to see If I had got home. =.
AS to plants" as far as I can
see, they; can't be too hard ITO
dodge. At the theater you can
always arrive at the LAT minute
! and get q seat next to people who
are already there. And you can do
the same IN trains and restau-
rants. Anyway I think this sys-
tenn has worked for me 80 far,
but you never know.

Male Circumcision Credited

NEW YORK (JP) = Cancer of
the cervix is almost non-existent
among Jewish women.
This has been established by a
10-year follow-up study completed
recently at the Chicago School of
Medicine.
And investigation indicates that
the low incidence of the disease
in the Jewish group is due to the
fact that Jewish males are cir
cumcised early in infancy.
The study, conducted among
patients at Mt. Sinai Hospital in
Chicago, found that nine times as
many non-Jewish women as Jewish
women have the disease. The study
was conducted between 1910 and
1850, when there were 49,407 fe-
male admissions at the hospital,
not including newborn infants, of
whom 36,759 were Jewish - or
proportion of three Jewish to
one non-Jewish among the female
patients.

THE CERVIX is the lower mar
row end of the uterus or womb,
and is the site of a cancer that
is common in women of all ethnic
groups.
The reason for the extremely
low incidence among Jewish wo-
men was not part of the Chi
cago study. The Chicago scientists
merely commented that "the reason
has been postulated by many but
proved by none."
A review of medical literature,
however, reveals that previous
studies by medical Investigators
provided grounds for claims that
ritual circumcision as practiced
by Jews is a major factor, with
some postulating the fact that
most Orthodox women do not en-
gage in sexual intercourse dur
ing the two-week-odd menstrual
period each month, and that they
ritually cleanse themselves at the
end of the period before resuming
sex relations.

DURING THE study, which last
ed seven years, there were eight
times as many cancers of the GER
vix found among Indian women
than among Fiji women.
DIR. Handley concluded from this,
and from statistics which showed
lower incidence of cervical, can
Ger in Jewish women, that circum-
cision could lower the incidence
of this particular form of female
cancer.

ticed circumcision at puberty and
