Artificial Sugar Made;
May Help JntangIe
Secret Of Use in Body
By Alton |. Blokeslee
Associated Press Science Reporter

CHICAGO. Sept. Artificial
sugar, a great chemical triumph,
was announced yesterday by two
young chemists.
It is the first time man has
made synthetically what nature
makes so easily-ordinary sugar
or sucrose.
Sugar is a keystone of life. All
the energy of the sun which is
used by nature starts out as
sugar, formed by plants through
photosynthesis.
The sugar success was achieved
by DR.. Raymond U. Lemieux, 33,
a Canadian, and DR.. George HUI
ber, 25, a Swiss. both working
for the National Research Coun-
Gil of Canada. It was disclosed
on the eve of the American
Chemical Society's 124th ma
tional meeting opening today.
Failure Met Heretofore.
Many great chemists have
tried tried to make sugar by
chemical synthesis and failed.
The success was likened to the
climbing of a scientific Mount
Everest by DR.. Henry G. Hass,
chemist-president of the Sugar
Research Foundation.
Only a fraction of an ounce
of sugar was made and crystal
lized. 1t will not become COM
mercially useful. since sugar
from plants is so abundant.
But it may be possible to put
radioactive atoms into this
artificial sugar. feed it to hu-
mans. and solve some secrets
of how the human body uses
this chemical of life.
The work also will aid in
understanding basic chemical
properties of glucose, which
makes up part of the sucrose
molecule. and may help in syn
thesizing other complicated
chemicals.
Work Done in Three Months.
1t took the chemists only
three months to succeed in
producing artificial sugar. DR..
Lemieux first syntheSized malt
sugar or maltese, something
never done before. This knoWl-
edge helped in making derlva-
tive of glucose and derivative
of fructose, or fruit sugar, eract
to form ordinary sugar.
DR.. LemieuX is head Of the
crop utilization section of the
Prairie Regional Laboratory at
Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. DR..
Huber, a graduate of the Uni
versity of Zurich, has been doing
fellowship research at the same
laboratory.

Queen SoraYa Returns

forces wrested the nations
control from Mohammed Mos
sadegh August 10.

What does the Commission do with
the tails?
This is a question the friends of
squirrels would like to have answered.
What do you do with all those tails,
Sir Richard?
Four hundred gray squirrels were
taken between 1890 and 1880 to the
famous home counties-Devon, Che
shire, Yorkshire and Denbighshire.
Now they are a million and a half
strong.
1t is difficult for their American
friends at this distance to account Cor
their changed tastes.
In America, the gray squirrel seldom
If ever harms tree.
Why should he?
The tree, particularly the oak. is his
nursery. his playground, his home, his
very life.
He may do bit of damage to corn
on the cob, eat tomatoes, and now
and then dig up few tulip bulbs. but
over here he leaves the trees, which are
his friends. strictly alone.
Every displaced creature develops
new traits Consider the startling. an
import. It is not at all here as it is
in England, where it is welcomed as
friend.
The common sparrow, which we call
English sparrow, is highly regarded
over there.
Evening star., 1953-05-06

Friends of the gray squirrel will lit
an eyebrow at the claims from Eng
land that the imported squirrels are
running the trees there.
Our gray friends with the bushy
tails do not in the least damage
American trees.
How come they show a taste for
British trees?
Yet such seems to be the case. if one
may believe the unimpeachable London
Times, which, in a recent issue, said:
"Sir Richard Cottrell. a member of
the Forestry Commission. said it was
not an exaggeration to assert that if
the numbers of gray (they spell it grey)
squirrels continued to multiply at tre
present rate it would become impos-
sible to grow commercial crops Of
beech, sycamore and oak.
1.-The animal also attacked birch and
ash and has shown liking for larch.
There was no reason to suppose that
other conifers would remain immune
If the pest spread farther into area
where softwoods were predominant.
Everything considered, he could find
only two qualities that could be quoted
in recommendation of the pest. It was
inquisitive and the biggest of fools
when confronted by trap, and also
it had some merit as food.
I'm America numbers were kept
within limits because the animal was
regarded as game and its carcass as a

delicacy. Recipes described it as better
than rabbit and as good as chicken"
Tut, tut, Sir Richard!
No wonder displaced American
squirrels show a liking for larch.
Otherwise, evidently, they would
starve to death in the meticulously
cleaned British woods.
AS for their being held as good as
chicken, we would suggest to Sir
Richard that he has been mininformed.
Squirrel is not one-half, not one
fourth as good eating as chicken.
Certainly the squirrel is fool" as
Sir Richard bluntly calls it, when it is
confronted with trap.
An honest American squirrel, even
when Gagged and transported to Eng
land, is not looking for trap.
He is a bright, inquiSitive creature.
and finds a trap something to look
into: he just wants to see what is in
there.
American squirrels were first taken to
England so years ago.
Since then, finding the larch much
to their liking. evidently, they have
increased to at least a million and a
half specimens, of which 1853 900 were
killed last year.
The Forestry Commission in paying
shilling for the tail Of every gray
squirrel killed.

also defective because, in violation Of the First
Amendment, it restricts the defendants free
dom Of belief and expression. Even If 1t be
assumed that Mr. baltimore was Communist
sympathizer-which he has emphatically denied
the fact remains that he was not indicted
for any belief he may have held or expressed
He was perfectly free to believe anything he
wished and to express his beliefs as he saw
fit He was indicted-not for his beliefs-but
on the contention that he perjured himself
when he denied holding Communist sympathies.
The distinction should be kept in mind.
For while it is right to quash charge If it is
not sufficiently definite, or if it could not be
proved with acceptable evidence, that is quite
different thing from asserting that an indict-
ment for perjury restricts freedom Of belief
A dissertation on the guarantees in the First
Amendment always makes good reading. But
sometimes it also serves to obscure the real
issue.
Evening star., 1953-05-06
The baltimore Indictment

There can be no quarrel with Judge Luther
Youngdahrs decision to invalidate those por-
tions of the indictment against Owen baltimore
which did not clearly specify the nature OF the
charge against the defendant.
For instance, the charge that Mr. baltimore,
expert on Far Eastern affairs, lied to Senate
committee when he denied that he had been
a Communist sympathizer seems clearly defec-
tive. AS the court pointed out this charge is
excessively nebulous and indefinite. No jury
could find the defendant guilty without probing
his mind and arriving at a verdict which, at
best, would be highly speculative. Sympathy
or lack of sympathy is state of mind-hardly
susceptible of the degree of proof necessary to
sustain a criminal charge.
Judge Youngdahl gets onto shaky ground,
however, when he concludes that this count is
