Malaria Fight
May AidIn
Cancer Battle
BY FRANK CAREY
AP Science Reporter

BOSTON R - The quest for
drugs to fight malaria may have
turned up some new foes for can
GER, a Boston scientist said today.
DR.. Sidney Farber of the Chill
dren's Cancer Research Founda-
ton said that five expert.
mental compounds originally pro-
duced with the idea of combating
malaria have yielded temporary
benefits when given to some peo-
pie suffering from "acute leukemia
and scattered other tumorS."
Leukemia is a cancer of the
blood.
Farber said that while the bene-
fits derived from the drugs were
of short duration, they were suf-
ficiently strong to warrant further
investigation of compounds of this
geneal type.
The doctor told about it during
a news conference with science
writer's looking into a number of
research projects being sponsored
by the American Cancer Society.
He said these particular drugs
are, in sense, bad news to GER
tain vitamins and other materials
necessary for the growth of living
cells. Therefore, since cancer is
considered to be a wild growth Of
cells, anything that might inter-
fere with such wild growth would
be of great importance.
The doctor also told of promis-
ing although still temporary -
treatment of leukemia and certain
other forms of cancer with other
chemical materials.
He told of one boy, a victim Of
leukemia which once was invari.
ably fatal in matter of months,
who now has been kept alive for
almost five years, thanks to a
leukemia fighting drug.
He still has the disease, and
his improvement is considered
only temporary" but, as DR..
Farber said:
Life is being prolonged, and
there is always that possibility
that someone may come up with
an answer in time to save such
people"

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. H - The
industrial scientist may be whisu'
ing in the dark-but he thinks that
management will 90 right on pick
ing up the check.
The head Of a leading research
organization here says that re.
search thinking has become i'm
bedded in management's min6
since World War II. Perhaps that's
because research has paid some
of industry's lushest dividends, In
new products and new industries
And when will American business
need more of the same than In the
months and years just ahead?
So the scientist says he sees
little chance of any sizable slash
in research funds by business as
a whole, although some little COM
panies might seize on that as q
Woy W CCOilViulLS.
Industry spent % million dollars
on research in 1920. Today the
annual bill is around three billion
dollars.
Research officials are inclined
to scott at the idea that the death
of the excess profits tax will seem
to make research dollars too cost
ly, or that a drop in gross sales
will do anything but make the
marriage of competition and re.
search the more binding.
They admit, however, that il
sales drop enough to drain the
till of cash, that would be a diff
ferent story.
Here they do perhaps 4 sixth
OF all the nations scientific re-
search on which industry draws.
And they export Yankee ingenuity
literally around the world.
Raymond Stevens, vice president
Of the research organization Ar
thur D. Little, Inc, points out that
it took two years before the big
depression of the '30s affected re-
search spending. And almost no
one is predicting any such business
drop this time. Smaller business
cycles since the big one have had
practically no effect on research
spending, he says.
His organization, however, has
had some calls in recent months
from corporations asking it to ap-
praise their own research depart

The Veterans

Corner

Here are authoritative answers
from the Veterans Administration
to four questions of interest to for
mer servicement and their fami-
lies:
@. I'm going to night school un-
der the World War Two CT Bill.
III have to stop training for =
while because my employer wants
me to make an emergency two
month trip to another city. This is
the first time I've had to travel
on the job. Will l be allowed to
continue with my CT Bill schooling
after l return?
A. Yes, provided you resume
your course within 30 days after
you return, or at the first time en-.
rollment is permitted, whichever is
later.
@. I'm a disabled Korean veter-
an in training under Public Law
Is. VA recently gave me a physi-
cal examination and reduced my
Service-connected disability rating
to zero - which means no longer
will draw compensation pay. What
about my Public Law is training?
VIII I have to quit that, too?
A. No. So long as you already
were in training when your dis
ability was rated as noncompens-
able, you will be permitted TO 50
ahead with your Public Law Is
training until you attain your OBJ
jective.
Q. I'm In college under the
World War Two CT Bill, and I'm
running out of CT entitlement. I've
been figuring out the number OF
days I lost because Of regular
school holidays, illness and other
absences from class. Could ! re-
fund my subsistence pay 10 VA
for those days, and thereby add On
to my entitlement?
A. No. Subsistence paid during
regular absences may not be
bought back" for the purpose OF
adding to your entitlement. End.
of-term extensions of training, on
the other hand, may be repurchas-
ed.
Q. I'm taking 4 correspondence
course under the World War Two
CT Bill, and my entitlement will
expire when I'm only two thirds OF
the way through. VIII ! be permit
ted to continue the course anyhow?
A. So long as you've completed
major number Of lessons at the
time your entitlefnent expires, you
will be allowed to finish the cor
reSpondence course. However. this
extension is limited to the number
of lessons that $125 viii buy.

| may be expected from Russia if its
drive to pry open the doors of
East-West trade continues:
| l. Offers to buy heavily from
industries loaded with surpluses.
This already started in offers
rejected at least on a cash basis
/ to soak up some of this nations S
government-owned surplus butter
and cottonseed oil.
| 2. Offers to buy heavily where
purchases might relieve unem-
ployment. The shipbuilding indus.
try might be a target in this
country.
/ 8. Increased offers to buy food
processing machinery, farm ma.
chinery and production machines
, for consumer goods. This would
bolster Russia's backward food
and consumer goods industries in
line with the new Soviet regimes
promise to raise the level of Soviet
living.
4. Some offers, at least, to sell
''hard good" s"-mining machinery,
construction steel, automobiles and
the like-to back a recent Moscow
claim of willingness to help all
countries promote internal eco
nomic development" This would
be a kind of cash or barter Soviet
technical aid program, in the face
of this country's free Point Four
aid.
S. Readiness to pay for Soviet
purchases in gold where the bal
ance of trade does not pay the
bill.
AS usual with Soviet plans, there
seem to be several objectiveS here.
Some apparently even conflict,
such as offers to buy production
equipment while offering to sell
production equipment.
But they all fit into an overall
design of expansion abroad while
consolidating at home.

That's the advice of Muriel

which now has a membership OF
1000 in 100 cities across the United

Miss Davis, an attractive career
girl herself, works on the theory
that the more interests and &C.
tivities a girl has, the more
chances she gets to meet new and
interesting people.
Her first chapter started in
Chicago with five members, whom
she advised to go into various
kinds of charity work, hold bust.

that their circle OF friends had
grown by leaps and bounds, and
that other groups in nearby cities
wanted to form their own chapters

Since its inception, members
have made group trips to Hawaii,
regular excursions to New York
and Washington, and yearly trips
to the Kentucky Derby. These are
organized by Miss Davis, who con-
facts railroads, airlineS and hotels
and gets rock-bottom group rates.
This year she will take 300 girls
aboard the "Filly Special" to the

One OF Stains Pet Theories
May Be Plowed Under By Reds

LONDON R-Offlclal criticism
OF Prof, Triofim D. Lysenko in a
report circulating throughout the
Soviet Union today raises the queS-
ton whether the Malenkov govern
ment is about to plow under one
of Stains pet theories.
This theory, propounded by Ly-
senko, emphasizes the importance
of environment in plant life and
Just about everything else Lysenko
declared acquired characteristics
could be passed on to the next
generation.
Stain liked this because it sup
ported his idea that an environ
ment of proper indoctrination could
mold all people into loyal Commu-
nists.
For several years before the
Red dictator's death, no one in
Russia dared criticize Lysenko, a
blond, bespectacled botanist whose
theories have been frowned on by
most Western scientists.
Now, the first word against him
has been uttered in Russia, and by
no less an authority than Nikita
S. Khrushchev, secretary general
of the Central Committee Of the
Communist party and the coun-
try's agricultural boss.
Khrushchev struck at LySenko
obliquely, an old party maneuver,
by lambasting one of the profess
sors's protoges, fellow scientest
Dmitriev, former head Of the De-
partment of Agricultural Planning
of the State Planning Board.
''In some Institutes" Khrush-
chev told the Central Committee
of the party Feb. q, in a report
broadcast only Sunday by the Mos
COW radio, there are men who
have stuck like limpets to science,
but who have failed in practical
work. Let US take for instance
Dmitriev, who has done no little
harm 10 the cause of developing
agriculture"
KhruShchev said that after
Dmitriev was fired from the State
Planning Board he was given a
chance to work in the South, on
a state farm or at a machine tIac.
tor station.
However" said Khrushchev.
''he wriggled out of it, started
studying for a doctors degree in
the Academy OF Sciences, enjoying
the protection of Academician I'D.
LySenko, and he tried to obtain
the degree of doctor of biologica al
science"
While enjoying Lysenko's pro.
lection, Dmitriev has been lectur.
ing as an authority on agriculture.
"We," said Khrushchev. "are as
yet only discussing the question OF
developing virgin and waste land,
but comrade Dmitriev hurries to
deliver public lectures on the ques-
ton. 1t is easy TO understand that
our science will derive no help
from such a man of learning >

Brian TO Launch
Super Speed Sub
By the Assccioted Press

London, Feb. 81. - Britain's
latest top-secret experimental
submarine will be launched next
Friday, it was announced today.
The new sub, named Explorer.
Is the first to be launched in
Britain for seven years. 1t will
be powered by a special fuel
which experts believe may give
it higher speeds than the Amer
icar atomic engined Nautilus.
Unofficial reports say the Ex-
plorer will be able to cross the
Atlantic nonstop under water
without the aid of snorkel
breathing tubes.
The only details officially re-
leased by the Admiralty are that
the Explorer is 200 feet long and
has a beam of Is feet, 8 inches.
This would make her some 10
feet shorter and 6 feet less in
the beam than the six "a" class
subs at present in service.
The Explorer is believed pow
