ADA socialism takes the i'm
provised socialism of the New

it into a body Of doctrine"
But beneath the uplift lingo
and the self-righteous accents,
the doctrine is socialism still

The ADA describes itself as

Virus Use Produces
Cancer in Test ube
By RENNIE TAYLOR
Associated Press Science Reporter


PASADENA, Calf, April g.
Further evidence that viruses
are a cause of malignancy was
reported here yesterday by a
scientist who has produced can
Ger in a test tube.
Under the eye Of the re-
searcher, normal chicken cells
in a glass dish turned cancerous
within a week after being
inoculated with a virus which
has long been known to cause
malignancy in living chickens.
After the virus started the
cancer process it seemingly dis
appeared, but the cancer kept
growing. The researcher ex-
pressed the belief that the virus
had made its way into the he
reditary material of the cell and
become a gene.
Addresses Science Writers
The report was made by DR..
Harry Rubin. virus expert of
the California Institute of Tech
nology. He talked to science
writer's on the American Cancer
Society's tour of research labor
atorieS.
DR.. Rubin's report raises anew
the possibility of a vaccine or
a serum to fight cancer. 1t does
so because it fits into q theory
offered only a few days ago by
DR.. S. E. Luria. University of
Illinois virus expert.
DR.. Luria expressed the opin-
ion that even though human
cancers may be caused by VIZ
ruses, the agent of malignancy
may never be recovered from
patients because the virus hides
itself by becoming a gene, and
does not act as a cell-destroying
instrument such as the virus of
polio.
Instead of killing a cell, DR..
Rubin said, the virus in his ex-
pertinent works its way into the
cells hereditary mechanism
and become a piece Of genetic
information.
When the cell divides it
makes a mistake because of
this false information and pro-
duces two cells also containing
Transformation. The mistake
Is perpetuated and becomes a
cancer.
DR.. Rubin used the terms in
formation and transformation
as analogies to describe the
functioning Of genes, because
In effect the genes tell a cell
what to do in reproducing it
self.
Information refers to the
functioning of the regular
genes which produce normal
cells. and transformation to-
false genes. in this case the
viruses which assume the
genes jobs and cause cells to
produce abnormal descendants.
He did not name any particu-
lar gene.
DR.. Luria, working at Urbana,
Ill. with different kinds of
cells and viruses. came up with
similar findings.
Even though he inoculated
cells with viruses he could not
recover viruses from all Of them
later. From this he concluded
that the virus had hidden itself

proach to Integration," admitted
that some of the responsibility for
white peoples reluctance to accept
Negro teachers lies with him. He
was referring to his repeated
statements that Negro teachers,
on the whole, are not as good as
white teachers.
The superintendent repeated his
contention that he is not sure that
the time has come for a start to
be made toward teacher integra-
ton. He did admit, however, that
if he chad known we could get
along so we'll with pupil integra-
ton, we probably would have done
the two things together"
He said that the problem is
being studied constantly because
the fact that faculties must be in
tegrated was accepted in the be-
ginning. We "just want to do it
when it won't throw us into a
tail spin," he stated.

said the Government, involved
motor lorries and nearly half of
them were caused by "recklessness

DR.. Candy said that the group
was especially interested in reli-
gious freedom in the Soviet Union.
He reported that there is COM
plete freedom to worship in Russia,
although less than complete equali-
ty between denominations, as guar
anteed by the Soviet constitution.
"The Russian Orthodox Church
in fact occupies a preferential po-
sition i'm relation to other churches,
even though the government de-
MES any commitment to religion.
II is the only religious institution
classified as a church. All other
religious groups are known as
cults" said DIR. Candy.
According to DIR. Candy, the
Soviet citizen is free to attend the
church of his choice and does so
in large numbers, but clergymen
there do not comment upon social
or political issues. Religious in
struction is prohibited. except that
parents may teach their children
privately n he nome.
Notwithstanding these restric-
tons, DIR. Candy reported that he
found no indications of conflict
between church and state. "Reli-
gious enthusiasm is greater in Rus
STA than | have ever witnessed
anywhere else. i say no less than
10000 worshipers at a single SER
vice in the Central Cathedral of
the Russian Orthodox Church in
Moscow and at least 20 percent of
them were young people, includ-
ing many soldiers in uniform. Ser
vices were similarly well-attended
at the Baptist and other churches
that l visited" DIR. Candy stated.
In sharp contrast was the rela-
tive indifference to religion found
in the countries Of Western Europe.
The billiard chaplain said that it
was his impression that there was
no Give" religious movement in
the western countries, including
The United States. gb5
DR.. Candy said that the group
was well-received everywhere and
that its members had an oppor-
tunity to interview many of the
worlds religious leaders. An invi-
tation was extended to the Metro
politan Nikolai Of Moscow and
other Soviet churchmen to visit
the United States.
Although the travelling church
men limited their discussions to re-
ligious matters, DR.. Candy re-
ported that everywhere the people
expressed a strong desire for
peace and understanding with the
United States. He said that racial
discrimination here was major
stumbling block to international
understanding. "As a Negro" he
said, 81 felt more comfortable in
churches abroad than / would in
almost any church in my native
South"
In addition to DR.. Candy, other
members Of the group were DR..
John Sutherland Bonnell, pastor
of the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian
Church, New York; the Rev. Leon
ides C. Contos, dean Of st. Sophia

geles; DR.. Irving Lehman, rabbi
of Temple Emanuel, Miami
Beach; and Roy J. McCorkel, di-
rector of the commission on reli-
gious organizations Of the Nation

Funeral Rites
Held For Rev.
John I. woodson

On July 81, 1858, the angel of
silence came into the life of JOHN
TURNER WOODSON and carried
to eternal rest one of the finer
christian souls that has been priyi-
legged to dwell on this earth. There
are some lives that disappoint us.
There are some impressions of
character which we have 20 :evise
in later years. Mr.. Woodson was,
one of those outstanding person
alities whose initial impression re-
NAMED constant with one through
out life. He was not selfish: ne
gave freely of his time, his counsel.
his money and was always willing
to do anything that he felt would
neip others.
|, Mr.. Woodson departed this life
in Ell Paso, Texas while enroute
to the National Holiness Conven-
ton, Los Angeles, California. Three
cars of delegates were travelling
together when Mr.. Woodson be-
came i'll and had to be hospitalized
for several hours in Ell Paso.
While young man, Mr.. Wood
son became n christian End Joined
Bethel CINE Church, Carroll Coun-
ty, Mississippi. After moving to
Jackson in 1923, he joined the
Christ Temple Church Holiness.
In 1925 he was called to the min
istry. Until his death, Rev. MI.
Woodson served as pastor for the
Christ Temple Holiness Churches
in Utica and Hazlehurst, Missis-
;ippi.
For more than 80 years, his sole
employment in Jackson was with
the Mississippi School Supply
Company as shipping clerk, where
he was held in the highest respect
by all of his co-workers.
In 1924 he was married to Miss
Hattie Spencer of Wesson, Mis-
sissippi. Their only child, dau-
ghter, now resides with her hus-
band and 2 sons in Wheaton, Ill.

his widow, Hattie Spencer Wood
son, Jackson, Mississippi. his dau-
ghter and son-in-law, Dora Wood
son Griffin and Stanford Griffin,
one adopted son, two grandsons,
five sisters, three brothers, and a
host of relatives and friends.
While the Woodson remains were
in state at the Frazier and Collins
Funeral Home, thousands of friends
of other races came to pay their
respect and sign the guest regis
tiers. At the funeral held in The
Masonic Temple, Monday, July %
at , y, NJ, friends and relatives
were IN attendance from all over
the state and nation. More than a
thousand bereaved persons shared
in the hour long service, and many
went on TO the Garden Memorial
Cemetery where the remains were
deposited.

of Mr.. Woodson by referring to
him as his oldest business asso-
ciate, man of great understand

man who made everyone little
better for having known him.
