Child Disease
Is Conquered

The National Institutes OF
Health have discovered the
cause of an often fatal children's
disease which occurs a few days
after birth and may leave its
victims imbeciles or blind due tc
cataracts.
Surg. Gen. Leonard A. Scheele
announced yesterday that the
disease. galactosemia, may be
stopped by simple diagnostiC
tests which make life saving
treatment possible.
The disease is marked by a
condition which makes the body
completely unable to tolerate
milk in any form.
However. scientists discovered
that by removing milk and milk
sugar from the afflicted infants
diets this condition is not ir-
ritated.
In normal children a chemical
engine converts galactoSe into
glucose. Galactose is one of two
major constituents of lactose
known as milk sugar. Glucose is
the common blood sugar.
Children without this engine
In their systems are the ones
with galactosemia. The NH

taken to keep milk completely
out of the diets of children un-
able to handle it internally.
The disease was discovered a
few years ago. Its prevalence in
the general population is not
known because it manifests
symptoms which are often con-
fused with other disorders.
These may be diarrhea. jaun-
dice-like symptoms, loss of
weight and lack of appetite.
Later it often turns into cir
rhosis of the liver, blindness,
mental retardation and often
leads to death.

On the mainland. Under this
dual taxing system, set up by
Congress in 1922, a man who
pays taxes in the Islands
doesn't have to pay in Wash
ington, and vice versa.
Here, according to an In.
terror Department official, is
what can happen:
"A Virgin Islands holding
company has two mainland
eu1sidiaries, one n Pitts
burgh for manufacturing, the
other in New York for sales.
The Pittsburgh company sells
at cost to the holding COM
pany. The New York concern
buys the goods fromsthe hold
ing company at the same
price the New York company
will eventually sell them for.
Thus. the Pittsburgh a n d
New York companies make
no profits and pay no taxes.
All the profits flow to the
holding company, It p a y 5
axes in the Virgin Islands,
and promptly gets a 1879
rebate"
This maneuver would not
constitute fraud against the
Government, emphasizes Rep.
Joan P. Saylor (R., Pa.), a
member Of the O'Brien sub
committee.
This is not defrauding,' he
declares. "This is f hiding a
loophole in the law and taking
advantage Of it." Mr.. SaylQr

Call for Inteqrotion

Federal Judge John PauFS ruling in
the Charlottesville school case pulls the
rug from under those Virginia officials
who have seemed to think that a do
nothing policy was sufficient answer to
the Supreme Court
The precise scope of Judge PaulS
decision must await preparation of the
formal decree. But, at minimum, he
has ordered the Charlottesville School
Board to proceed on the assumption that
they are going to begin to make plans for
Indignation of schools this coming Ses-
sion." Negroes constitute about one
fourth of Charlottesville school popula
ton. An appeal will be taken from this
order, and that may delay its effective
date. But the handwriting ON the wall
is clear enough. 1t says Enthusiastically
that the time for stalling is over.
This can hardly come as surprise
to Governor Stanley and that faction of
Virginia's off1cialdom which has appeared
to cling to the hope that, somehow, it
would be possible to prevent any integra-
ton in the State. More than month
ago State Attorney General Almond, ap-
pealing for a special session of the Legis-
lature to enact the Gray program, warned
that he had fought to the end of the
legal rope" Virginia, he said. must have
new legislation if he was to resist integra-
ton suits by the NAACP with any hope of
success.
Following this, Governor Stanley an
nounced that he would call a special
session for about September 6. The divi-
sion in Richmond persisted, however, with
those opposed to any indignation holding
out against the Gray program, knowing
that its adoption would lead to some
integration in areas of the State where
public sentiment would accept it.
1t seems evident now that this bitter
end opposition will have to yield. The
most ardent Segregationist can no
longer pin his hopes to what Judge Paul
described as "a deliberate, well-conceived
plan of evasion" If chaos is to be avoided,
something new must be offered.
The Gray program. with its assign
ment plan and tuition feature, looks like
the best bet if Virginia is to proceed with
an orderly eventual compliance with the
Supreme Courts decision. 1t is possible,
of course, that it would not survive
court challenge. But it offers far more
hope than doing nothing.

The Evidence Is of Record

There is no need for lengthy hearings
before the Senate Post Office Committee
on the HouSe-passed postal rate bill.
Chairman Johnston and his committee
men can save themselves and the wit
nesSeS lot of time at the hearings, to
begin next Tuesday, by avoiding dupli-
cation of the reams of testimony already
recorded on this important antideficit
legislation.
The House Post Office Committee
heard about $50 witnesses and received
masses of written evidence during six
weeks of hearings on the administration
measure this year. Nearly everything
that can be said for or against the rate
increase bill has been said. The prepon-
derance of testimony favored the legisla-
ton, and the House recognized that fact
in approving the postage rise by sub
stantial majority vote.
Moreover, Senator Johnston spon-
sored very similar bill which the Senate
passed on September 7, 1851. That bill
would have yielded about $400 million
year in additional postage revenues, as
compared with the $3.50 million expected
to be obtained from the pending proposal.
Had the 1851 Johnston bill become law,
the postal deficit today would be some
So billion less than it is.
The new plan would not put the Post
Office Department on Self-sustaining
basis by any means, but it would help
materially to reduce the annual postal
deficit of nearly $500 million. Some of
the opposition has come from interests
that profit by the concealed public sub
sides represented in carrying the mail
at a loss to the Government. We believe
that the public interest should be para
mount in this matter of keeping the
postal deficit within reasonable bounds

postwar military reductions in the free
world-falls far short of being good
enough to promote and insure genuinely
trustworthy international peace.
AS Sir anthony has put it, what is
needed is not just moderately encour-
aging Soviet announcement of military
cut. Although that is gratifying as far
as it goes, there must be in addition con-
crete Soviet action to cooperate in a
system of strict regulation and policing
of arms and armed forces of every kind
a system of guarantees sufficiently thor
ough and foolproof to inspire mutual
trust and establish real confidence and
security on global scale. For certainly,
to promote such confidence and security
in the atomic age, to guard against the
hazards of violations and evaSionS, sit is
essential that disarmament should take
place under an international agreement
which provides for effective control and
inspection and for adequate measures of
protection against surprise attack
This is another way of saying that
the Kremlin, if it sincerely wishes to join
in peace-promoting general military
reduction, must accede, among other
things, to an undertaking very much like
President Eisenhower's "open skies" pro-
posal for reciprocal aerial surveillance.
But up to now-and Mr.. Gromyko has
just reaf1rmed their negative position at
the current meeting of the United Nations
Disarmament Committee = the Soviet
leaders have persistently rejected such

to reject it, their efforts to persuade the
West to disarm will be as futile as those

sanity roll back down again.

New Attack on Pollution

In voting to extend and strengthen
the National Water Pollution Control Act,
Congress has given the law real vitality.
The rejuvenating factor is the provision
for Federal grants to aid in construction
of sewage-treatment plants. The pre-
viouS provision for Federal loans only had
proved to be a poor inducement for
State, county and municipal antipollution
action.
The grant plan originating in a bill
sponsored by Representative Blatnik Of
Minnesota, will put the Federal Gov
eminent in partnership with local au-
thorities in the fight on river and stream
contamination While the legislation
specifically reserves to the States and
local jurisdictions the primary response
bility for pollution abatement, it recog-
nizeS that water contamination has
become problem of national concern
Also The national interest in the prob
lem juStif1eS the change in policy from a
standoff loan attitude to one calling for
a sharing of the costs of antipollution
facilities. Unfortunately, the new plan
will make no provision for reimbursing
communities which, in recent years, have
taken on themselves the heavy burden
of financing sewage-control plants In
effect, as Representative Howard Smith
of Virginia has pointed out, this would
penalize cities and communities like
Arlington, Fairfax and Alexandria which
have built sewage plants by borrowing
money through bond issues.
But to have made the Federal financ-
ing program even more extensive than
had been suggested by Mr.. Blatnik might
well have imperiled passage of any
grants-in-aid legislation at this session.
And, with the old law expiring at the
end of the fiscal year. any serious delay
in amending the law effectively would
have been a setback to the river-cleanup
program in general and the Potomac
antipollution war in particular.

@. Is it normal for a young
child to ask questions all day
long?-B. w.
A. Since a child enters the
world with no knowledge or
past experience, it is natural
for him to ask questions about
the things that mystify him.
The curious age usually be-
gins during the latter part Of
the child's second year and
continues until he is able to
find things out for himself.
In one study of young children
1t was found that the average

as 400 questions a day.

Boost for Mr.. Nixon

1t looks as though the stop-Nixon
drive, assuming that one existed in any
substantial form, is about washed up.
There has always been a certain neb-
ulouS quality to the reports of a move
to drop the Vice President from the
G. o. P. ticket 1t has been widespread"
in some accounts. Others have traced it
to an elmer circle" at the White House
Still others have referred to unidentified
Governors or Congressman as the inSti-
gators.
Our suspicion is that all of these re-
ports have been greatly exaggerated, to
say the least There are some Republicans
who do not like Mr. Nixon. Some think he
will hurt the ticket more than he will
help it, And there are others who doubt
less would like to have the No. spot for
themselves. But there has never been
any tangible evidence of strong, con-
certed move within the Republican Party
to ease Mr.. Nixon out of the picture.
There are several reasons for this.
One of them is that the Vice President,
although controversial figure, appeals
to powerful elements within the party.
One bit Of evidence was the recent unan-
imous Endorsement of Mr.. Nixon by the
New York State delegation to the G. o. P
convention-96 potent votes more or less
controlled by Thomas E. Dewey. Another
reason lies in the difficulty of finding
someone who would be a greater vote
getting asset. Mr.. Nixon has done a good
job as Vice President and he is we'll known
throughout the country. Several possible
substitutes have been mentioned, but
none of them is as we'll known or as
effective on the stump.
Finally, there is the attitude of the
President. He has repeatedly said that
he would be we'll satisfied to have Mr..
Nixon as his running mate The latest
indication of this came from National
Chairman Leonard Hall after his visit
with Mr.. Eisenhower on Thursday. He
said the President had made it "abso-
lutely' clear that he would be pleased
to have Mr.. Nixon run with him II think
it's Eisenhower and Nixon" said Mr.. Hall.
That's it,"
Anyone reading the fine print would
notice that the G. o. P. party boss stopped
short OF saying categorically that the
nomination will go to Mr.. Nixon. But he
went almost to that point, and it is very
difficult to see how any stop Nixon effort
can get of the ground at this late stage
of the game
