Continued Progress Shown
The attending physicians, Mai

HE slept almost continuously
for W hours.
His temperature is 90; pulse
SO; blood pressure 120f76, and
respiration 20. all Of which are

The President stood on regular
scales for the weighing. His

loss was to be expected as it was

DR.. Law felt the evidence was con-
elusive: Thymus tissue Is necessary to
produce leukemia.
Scientists injected healthy thymuS
tissue into connective tissue of poten-
TALLY leukemic mice which had not
been deprived of their own thymuses.
In some, it took only three or four
months to develop local evidences of
leukemia. In others, it took longer
But almost all the alien. thymuSes
produced acute leukemic conditions
where they had been unnaturally
transferred.
DR.. Law then was convinced he
discover how it manufactures that
certain something that multiplies
white corpuscleS in the blood. When
he finds the answer, the causes of
leukemia may become apparent. and
methods of treatment may be
advanced
One of the intriguing aspects of
leukemia is its heritability. DR.. Law
has found that it is profitable to study
thymuS development even during the
baby mouse's CESSATION period There
is evidence that the milk of mother
mouse, herself having strong re-
SiStance to leukemia, can induce a
high degree of resistance in a foster
child. His laboratory is now in the
midst of foster nursing program,
to observe how orphaned" and po-
tentially leukemic mice make out in
later life after having been weaned
on the milk of a leukemia-resiStant
foster mother

fair inference that the results of his
work with experimental animals may
apply equally to the development of
leukemia in man.
When he came to Bethesda in 1913,
DR.. Law was interested in two broad
programs: To discover the causes of
leukemia and to study certain COM
pounds which inhibit the growth of
experimental leukemias.
The thymuS already had been found
to be active in one particular strain
of leukemia So one of DR.. Laws first
projects was to investigate its in
Movement in other strains. He found
in his first two years work-with
several generations of laboratory mice
that the thymus played an equally
significant role in all strains of mouse
leukemia.
But he still had no clue of what
the thymus' specific role was. There
was one way to find out: Take the
thymus out and see what happened.
1t was in 1850 and 1851, when the
Korean war was making front page
news, that DR.. Law and his associates
set about taking the thymuSeS out of
whole colony Of potentially leukemia
mice All the mice had to be under
months old-equivalent of years
in a human.
In the next year, the mice aged as
much as men between their 9Th and
10th birthdays. In that period, 80 to
100 per cent of the animals would
have contracted leukemia had their
thymuSes not been removed The
exciting thing was that they didn't

ONE OF THE difficulties in finding
" a cure for cancer has long been
the diseases habit of striking I'M
predictably in widely varying parts Of
the body. How does cancer start?
Where does it come from? Where
can one look for it? How and where
can it be attacked?
Answers to these questions are
closer because of the work of Wash
ington research scientist, DR.. Lloyd
w. Law, who heads. team of investi-
gators studying leukemia at the
National Cancer Institute in Bethesda.
A disease of the blood and blood
forming organs. leukemia is a type of
cancer in which the normal number
of white cells is vastly increased.
Thanks to scientists like DR.. Law,
persons with leukemia today can hope
for a longer and happier life.
Recently, the American Association
for the Advancement of Science
awarded Dr. Law the Ann Frankel
Rosenthal Award for cancer research.
His team is working on many projects
in the leukemia field, but its principal
contribution so far has been to mar
row drastically the area in which
researchers need hunt for the causes
and cures of the disease.
Dr. Law found in his work with
experimental animals that the thy
mus. a small glob of tissue in the
upper center of the chest cavity, is
involved in the origin of leukemia.
At this point. it can be said authori-
tatively that his findings are Of sig
nif1cance only in mice. But it is a

New Hope For LeuI<emia Victims

Results so far tend to establish that
there is a preventive certain some
thing" in the milk that could protect
mice-and probably humans-from
leukemia.
Several drugs have been found
which can help humans fight of
leukemia. They do not cure, but they
reduce the number of white corpuscles
in the bloodstream and help the
patient live longer and more comfort
ably. DR.. Laws group is now studying
the effect of these drugs on the
growth of leukemic cells.
One of the obstacles to a speedup
in leukemia research is lack Of quail
fed or interested scientists. DR.. Law
complains. like scientists in most fields
today, that the present curricula in
colleges are no longer sufficient to
turn out qualified researchers. After
scientists get their NJ D.. or Phi. DIS,
he says, most of them need three or
four years of practical experience be-
fore they are qualified to step into the
vastly complicated fields of modern
research.
DR.. Law is doing all he can to
encourage more young people in
studying medical science. Believing
the place to start developing scientists
is in the elementary and secondary
schools. he participates in school
activities where his own two sons
study. He is past president of Alta
Vista Schools PTA, is active in Cub
Scout work and even finds time in the
summer to coach Little League base
ball team on which his elder son plays.

NUCLEAR ENGINEERING FIELD WIDE OPEN

The Atomic Energy Commis- sion estimates that America will need 1000 nuelear engineers be- tween now and 1861. Dr. Victor c. Hessler said this following his return to the University of Alas ka where he is head of the de- partment of physics and elect rical engineering. He attended conference on nuclear engineer ing education sponsored by the AEC at Gatlinburg and Oak Ridge, Tenn.
 Dr. Hess1er said that the Uni versity of Alaska has an expand ing program to offer the basic training in mathematics, chemis- try and nuclear physics to pre- pare this university's graduates to enroll in graduate programs in nuelear engineering in con- tinental United States.

 Q. How can I prevent the oven from cooling too quickly?
 A. When the oven has been very hot, it often cools too quick ly if the oven door is opened. Instead of doing this, if a pan of cold water is placed in the oven it will lower the tempera- ture gradually.
 Q. How can I keep house plants watered while away from home for several days?
 A. Place as many bricks as there are plants in ainc tub. Put enough water into the tub to cover the bricks; then stand a pot on each brick. The plants will absorb the water through the bricks.
 Q. Should paraffin be heated to the smoking point for cover ing jelly?
 A. No; this makes it separate from the sides of the tumblers. Scratch the name of the kind of jelly on the paraffin, after it is cold, using a pin or other sharp instrument; this is easier than putting on labels.

 The President used the govern ment's toughest strike weapon un- der timetable which called for seeking a court injunction this weekend against continuing the week-long stoppage the iongshore- men have imposed on ocean trade.
 Louis Waldman, counsel for the striking union in New York, said the union would obey such an in junction.
 On Monday and Tuesday of this week West Coast longshoremen had voted, by an S5 per cent majority, to give their negotiating committee full authority to call a strike if and when it felt a walkout was necessary in supper: of the East Coast and Gulf strikers.

ESC FUND HAS
 BALANCE OF $452,4

A report on the status of the Unemployment Compensation Fund was released this week by Merrill E. Weir, director of the Alaska Elm pIovment Security Commission.
 As of Nov. 19, the balance in the Unemployment Compensation fund was $4.1O2,414. Since there is a court order impounding $650,OOO of these funds, the actual balance of currently available funds is re- duced to $3,452,414.
 There is a liability of s3.OOO,OOO due to a loan from the federal gov- ernment and when this loan is de ducted from the $4,102,4l4 bal balance above. the result is a bal ance of S1.1O2.414. The $65O,OO0 of impounded funds is contin- gent liability against the Unem- ployment Compensation fund and Ii that is also deducted, the result IS balance of $452,414.
