Of the new cells is changed, prob
ably for the worse. Unless the
affected cells happen to be germ
cells therefis no damage to pos
terity, but there may be very
great damage to the living man
or woman.
A major effect of over-ex-
posure to radiation is the pro-
duction Of cancer and the above
may well be the reason for It,.
This, however, still is debatable.
1t is pointed out in a report pre-
pared for the National Academy
of Sciences by a committee of
some of the most eminent Ameri-
can medical scientists headed by
DR.. Shields Warren of Boston.
"Since the cancer cell is in
altered type of the normal tissue
CELL" says the report, 1T has
often been suggested that it is
"a somatic mutation. like a
genetic mutation but arising in
a tissue cell which perpetuates
the character by its growth.
Factor in Aging
Although the conclusion is far
from established, it is pointed
out, this may be an important
factor in the more rapid aging
and shorter life span of workers
with radiation in the past,
chiefly physicians and dentists.
What is specifically involved is
unknown. There is no definite
injury that can be localized.

cases they almost disappear be-
fore death. Various types of
anemias appear after a few
weeks. The invariably fatal
leukemia may not make its APP
pearance until years after a
heavy radiation dose.
The blood-forming cells, how
ever. apparently recover rapidly
from radiation injury. and vic
Tins who live through the first
month usually recover.
Effects on the intestinal tract
are somewhat complicated. Per-
sons exposed either through &C
cident or heavy medical treat
ments develop vomiting and
intestinal distress within a few
hours. This appears to be due
to effects on the nervous system
and soon disappears.
Serious Effects Appear
Only after four or five days
do the really serious effects ap-
pear-failure Of the cells lining
the intestines to replace them
selves. intractable loss of fluids
and salts, alterations, spreading
infections and bleeding.
On the skin, the early effects,
regardless of the dose. are quite
similar to sunburn and are quite
transitory. Much later chronic
damages to the skin appear
which are a fertile bed for can
Ger development.

During the meeting in the

He warned the problem of
juvenile delinquency in the coun-

more than 1900 juveniles came
in contact with police for various
infractions. He said this re-
presented more than double the

Egypt Denies Claim
Of Police Action,
Calls 1t Full War
BY the Associated Press

The Egyption Embassy said
last night in a statement that
I'VE are at war with Britain
and France"
The statement, which the
Embassy said was received from
Cairo. apparently was intended
to counter British Prime Min
lister Eden's reference to the
current fighting as a police
action"
1t said Mr.. Eden had tried
to absolve himself from the
responsibility Of the savage ag-
greSsive acts which British and
French armed forces are carry
ing out against the Egyptian
people" and added:
Eden tried to justify the
Anglo-French aggression against
Egypt by alleging that it is in
consequence OF the desire Of
Britain and France to end once
and for all the war between
Egypt and Israel. 1t Is evident
that the war now raging is not
between Egypt and Israel but
between Egypt on one side and
Britain and France on the
other"
Egypt has been at war with
Israel since 1913. An armiStice
achieved in 1919 through the
United Nations stopped the
heavy fighting but did not end
the state OF war.

Perforated Pari
Removed by
Army Doctors
Post-Operutive
Condition Is Said
To Be Satisfactory
BY JAMES Y. NEWTON

Secretary of State Dulles yes
terday underwent an emergency
operation in Walter Reed Hos
pital in which doctors removed
"a portion of the large intestine
which had perforated"
Lincoln White, State Depart
ment press officer, told reporters
that the operation required two
and a half hours and that the
Secretary left the operating room
in good condition" He said
that to his knowledge there was
no indication of malignancy, but
added, Il am no medical man"
The doctors, prior to the actual
operation, had diagnosed Mr..
Dulles condition as acute appen-
dicitis.
They had added that this dag
nosis was provisional" indicat-
ing they were not entirely sure
of it.
Secretary's Spirits Good
Mr.. White at 9 pm. made the
following statement on the g.
year-old Secretary's condition:
THE condition of the Sec
rotary of State in the immediate
post-operative period has be-
come stabilized and is salts

pulse IS, blood pressure l4Ol75
which the doctors tell me is
good"
The State Department press
officer went on to say that Mr..
Dulles was fully conscious, has
talked with Mrs. Dulles and the
doctors and sis in good spirits. u
He said the next bulletin on the
5ecretary's condition would be
at 3 pm. today.
Mr.. White still was unable to-
describe Mr.. Dulles ailment inI
detail and said he did not know
how large a portion of the large
intestine was removed. He also
pleaded ignorance as to what the i
doctors believed was the cause
Of the perforation.
He said in answer to a ques-
ton of whether any growth on
the intestine was malignant, that
tests were being made for that
and the answer would be known
in due time.
