HONOLULU, Feb. 13.-Arthur
Hays Sulzberger. publisher of the

themselves" by their repeated at
tacks on communism in the Tru-

The mentioning publisher told
newsmen that Senator Mccarthy,
Republican, of Wisconsin SIS

his country.
II don't think Mccarthy is es-
sential. l think the job (of fight
ing communism was being done
and would have been done with
out him"
Mr.. Sulzberger said the attacks
against the Truman administra-
ton have become a very unbe-
coming spectacle" He said he,
too, wanted a change in admin
istrations at the last election and
the New York Times came out
for Gen. Eisenhower but the at
tacks have reached a ridiculous
extreme now, crazy extreme"
He told reporters he consid-
cred "McCarthyism" a passing

Democrats Elect
First Tammanyite

NEW YORK, Feb. 13.-Car-
mine Desapio. leader of Tam
many Hall, the Democratic or
ganiZation in Manhattan, was
elected today a member of the
Democratic National Committee.
His election by the State COM
mittee was considered notable
on two counts. Democratic lead
ers said he was the first Tam
many man to be elected to the
national body and the first per-
son of Italian descent to be
elected to either the Democratic
or Republican National Com
mittees.
He was unopposed. His strength
stemmed largely from the sue
cess his organization scored in
electing Robert F. Wagner as
Mayor of New York last fall.
He fills the vacancy on the
national committee created by
the death of Edward j. (BosS)
Flynn of the Bronx.

The broker makes another cent
a pound when he sells to the
rooster.
Shipping costs from Latin
America add another 2A cents.
At that point, the trail so far
uncovered by the Banking and

Senate Agriculture Committee
grows cold. Between the 75-cent
cost to the rooster and the 81
the housewife pays across the
counter, a profitable gap exists,
The record as yet does not show
who gets most from it.
Gap Always There.
When the hearings resume,
probably next week, the Bank
ing and Currency Subcommit-
tee hopes to put spokesman for
roasters. wholesalers and retail
ers on the stand. In the mean
time. investigators are con-
fronted with the historical fact
that this same Is or 80 cent
gap has existed for many years
in the coffee industry Qast July
when the grower received 61.5
cents in Santos, Brazil, the
housewife was paying 80 cents

may conclude, as did a Senate
Agriculture subcommittee headed
by Senator Gillette, Democrat,
of Iowa, in 1850:

New Test for Blood
Detects Diseases,
Shows Seriousness
BY the Assoeioted Press

NEW YORK, Feb. ia new
sickness barometer to detect and
aid treatment of numerous dam
gerous or painful diseases now is
being made available to doctors.
It is blood test which tells
whether you have one of these
inf1ammatory diseases, how seri-
GUS it is and hence how much
drug treatment is needed, and
when the storm of disease is
over.
1t is called useful for rheumatic
fever. the great heart killer and
crippler among children, for flu,
rheumatoid arthritis, jaundice,
the bone disease osteomyelitis,
many bacterial infections includ-
ing pneumonia, and some forms
of cancer.
These diseases all cause a pecu-
liar protein material, C-reactive
protein, to appear in the blood.
It disappears when a person is
well. when the infammatory dis
ease is all over. It is not found
in the blood of healthy persons.
The diagnostic test shows
whether the protein is present,
can even tell whether there is a
little or lot. The test uses c.
reactive protein anti-serum. A
bit of the serum containing an
tibodies against the protein, is
mixed with a sample of blood
serum. A sediment or precipi-
tate forms if the protein is pres

The existence of the protein
during various illnesses and the
method of detecting it were de-
veloped by various medical re-
searchers during recent years.

Coffee Urged as Topic
AT Inter-American Talks
By the Assoeioted Pres,

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil,
Feb. Ex-senator Othon Nader
says it is imperative that the
coffee problem be placed on the
agenda of the Inter-American
Conference which opens at
Caracas on March /.
The Senator, an opposition
leader from the coffee-growing
state of Parana, said in a Senate
speech yesterday that this was
necessary in view of the cam
paign in the United States to
curtail coffee consumption be-
cause of rising prices. He sharp
ly criticized Foreign Minister
Vicente Rao who told a news
conference this week that Bra
zil's delegation does not intend
to submit the coffee problem to
the Caracas conference.
The newspaper Diario de
Noticias in an editorial also
asked that the coffee problem be
taken UP at Caracas.
-Four representatives of the
General Federation of Women's
Club in the United States left
Rio de Janeiro by plane today to
study the coffee situation at first
hand in Parana state. Their
tour is sponsored by the Brazil
ian Coffee Institute which plans
to take them on a visit to several
coffee plantations to see drought
and frost damage which Brazil
ians say is responsible for the
coffee shortage.
