On Second Thouqht
It Is regrettable that Justice Re

It Is regrettable that Justice Reed,
on giving the matter further thought,
has concluded that he could not prop
erly serve as chairman Of the new Civil
Rights Commission.
His service on the Supreme Court
prior to his retirement had earned him
the respect and confidence Of q large
segment Of the American community.
1t had seemed to US, as well as to many
others. that he was ideally equipped to
undertake the difficult and delicate civil
rights assignment. As a result, his de-
cision TO step aside Is the more disap-
pointing.
1t Is necessary, however, to respect
Mr.. Reeds own instincts In q matter Of
this kind. He accepted the appoint
ment in the nrst place because he
wanted to be Of service, and there is
no doubt that he has changed his mind
only after the most careful considera-
ton OF the proprieties involved. 1t Is
too bad that he feels as he does. but it
can't be helped. We hope the President
will be able to find someone Of COM
parable stature to take over the task.

Mr.. PeIIo From Italy

Washington is honored to have as
its latest visitor from abroad Foreign
Minister and former Premier Giuseppe
Pella. He is one Of Italys ablest and
most distinguished statesmen, an espe-
cially good friend of the United States,
and man dedicated to the idea of pro-
noting the unity Of free Europe. Not
the least Of his achievements, apart
from his fine, patriotic service to his
own country, is the constructive work
he has carried out as a leading figure
in the European Coal and Steel Com
munity, the European Common Market
and the supranational European atoms
for-peace organization.
Mr. Pella will be here only briefly,
but long enough for us to benefit from
his counsel and ideas. He will present
these In his talks at the State Depart
ment, and they will cover wide variety
OF difflcult issues, including particularly
the problems besetting the North Allan
tic Treaty Organization. His country Is

quency and gang warfare between fac
tions armed with switch-blade knives,
clubs and other weapons was keeping
police on the run. Into this disturbing
situation moved several law-and-o -order
groups, including notably the Commits
sioners' Youth Council, the boys clubs
and the newly created Juvenile Division
Of the Police Department. While the citi-
zen groups organized recreational pro-
grams and did other missionary work,
two plainclothes officers Of Inspector
Winters Juvenile Division concentrated
their attention on boys gangs. The
police moved slowly and intelligently
among the miscreant youths, taking
names and addresses and building up
roster Of all known gangs-with their
leaders. Instead Of using strong-arm
tactics on the youths, the police enlisted
the aid Of adult counselors to help direct
the activities Of the gangs into construc-
tive, rather than destructive, channels.
That these policies have paid OF is
indicated by the steady decline in num-
ber Of juvenile offenses during the past
year. For example, there were so per
cent fewer juveniles sent to the Receiv-
ing Home and Children's Center during
September and October Of this year than
In the corresponding period Of 1856. And
the number Of juvenile crime repeaters
In Washington now averages less than Is
per cent, as compared with the national
average OF AZ per cent. In short, the

Treutinq InfIotion

The proposal for one-year wage
freeze In the construction industry, rs
a helpful move toward obtaining full
employment as well as combating infia-
ton, has run into q storm Of indignant
criticism. Perhaps least surprised by
this reaction has been the sponsor of
the idea, Richard ]. Gray. president OF
the AFL-CIo Building Trades Depart
ment. who described his own plan as
unorthodox "for labor leader" He has
been roundly and unanimously de-
nounced by his associates heading other
big unions. His only unqualified sup
port has come from an industry spokes-
man, and Secretary Of Labor Mitchell
has merely suggested that the plan
should be seriously considered" but he
has added that It Is q question strictly
up to industry and the unions, mot for
the Government"
There has been continuing debate
over the role that constantly increasing
wage scales play In overall imitation.
Labor economists argue that higher
wages are not contributing cause, that
they are following rather than leading
the trend, and that they are justified by
higher costs Of living Industrial econo-
miSts argue that higher prices, another
symptom Of imitation, are forced in large
part by the increased wage costs. And
still other economists contend that Gov
ernment monetary policies. including
high spending going back over q con-
siderable number Of years, established
the real foundation for current imitation.
Whichever theory Is correct, or
whether all are partly correct, the fact
remains that wage and price increases
have been moving hand In hand. II
this Is only q symptom Of imitation, 1t is
still an economically painful one to most
segments Of the population. The de-
cline in home-building. which Is a con-
cern Of Mr.. Gray and his department,
has been attributed In part at least to
sthis wage-cost movement. Nearly q
year ago. President Eisenhower appealed
to labor and business to exercise re-
straint In this matter as a voluntary
curb on imitation. But there has been
little evidence Of compliance, and new
round OF wage negotiations In major
industries is due this year.
Clearly. unless balanced by In
creased productivity, new boost In
wage scales is almost certain to bring
a new boost in prices. II both happen,
there will also be a new boost for infia-
tion. In that case, pressure undoubtedly
will be renewed for Government. rather
than labor and industry. to attempt to
control what should be q free economy.

'Fote of Streetcors'

Your editorial. Fate Of

says: The streetcar advo-
Gates argue that the electric
cars are more comfortable and
quieter than buses and have
no fumes problem"
Those arguments for re-
tanning streetcars collapse
when exposed to the light Of
reason. The fumes are dis
charged outside, not into the
buses. and are so small q
part OF the total produced by
trafic as to be insignificant.
They provide a puny prop to
the weak defense OF anti
quated electric railroad cars
on the city streets. The COM
fort argument, is even worse.
It exposes the narrow selfish
ness Of the streetcar advo-
Gates. Pullmans would be
even more comfortable. Has
II ever occurred TO the advo-
Gates that there are consider
atoms In connection with
public transportation other
than their own comfort? Do
the cars really provide q slight
additional comfort, or Is that
argument made 10 cover UP

habits for q better and more
modern method Of travel?
Would the reactionaries be
willing TO endanger their dear
old habits to reduce traffic

called hazard platforms.

den Washington with street
railroads which have been

gressive cities.

The editorial on the re-
moval Of streetcars might
well lead to the question Of
the effect that the removal
Of the streetcars from H
street NE. had on that sec
tion. Despite the protests as
the matter was getting under
way. the general feeling now
seems to be that the appear
ance Of the street has been
improved. that there is less
dust. that there is less noise.
and that a gradually increas-
ing volume Of traific moves
much more smoothly and
quickly Possibly the volume
OF business conducted on or

creased. Some Of us undoubt-
edly liked to ride in a horse

Venezuela Has Some Weird Flowers
By THOMAS r. HENRI

can Medical Association by
Drs. Maurice M. Black and
Francis d. Spear Of New York
Medical College.
These three factors, they
said. are bound up both with
the growth potential Of the
tumor and the body's own
tumor fighting mechanisms.
The physicians have been
investigating the problem for
five years. making micro
scopic studies of about 1000
tumors. In 900 cases in which
the necessary data was avail
able. survival time was
studied in relation to micro
scopic evidence. The re-
searchers found that most
variations in cell structure
could not be pinpointed in
their relationship to tumor
behavior. but they found
three factors which could.
One Of these Is the make
up Of the cancer cell nucleus.
or core. Some Of the nuclei
were very highly organized in
structure and contained deli
cate chrofhatin, the material
involved in passing on hered-
itary characteristics. This
type Of nucleus was found in
the cells of patients who lived
longer periods after cancer.
In patients whose survival
was short. the cells were
found TO be disorganized in
structure, contained large
clumps of chromatin, and
showed marked variations in
size and appearance.
Other Factors
The other two factors were
found in the behavior Of the
lymph nodes and vessels near
the cancer. and appeared to
constitute q tumor-f fighting
mechanism. These nodes,
which contain liquid and a
material like white blood
cells. are primarily concerned
with fighting various infec-
tons in the body.
The researchers found that
in some patients the tumor
itself had been infiltrated by
lymph cells. Previously they
had found this kind Of in
filtration among stomach
cancer patients with long
survivals. 1t was uncommon
in breaSt-cancer patients, but
when 1t occurred the outlook
for long survival was "unex-
pectedly good"
They also found that lymph
nodes near the breast some
times were swollen by growth
OF histiocytes. a type Of cell
which swallows and sometimes
digests micro-organisms in
other cells and tissues. This
histiocyte accumulation-the
third factor in the triad-was
found only rarely in nom
cancerous patients or in
cancer patients with short
survivals. 1t was found con-
siderably more often among
patients who survived long
periods with breast cancer.
