Of Domestic Relations

Domestic Relations Court
Judge Godfrey L. Munter, So.
has resigned.
Judge hunters resignation
was accepted today by Presi-
dent Eisenhower who praised
his excellent service" in the
court, which was created in
July of 1866. His resignation
was effective as of yesterday.
Judge Munter, a native Of
Bern, Switzerland, told the
President he wanted to return
to private law practice, per-
haps with one or two of my
sons"
The judge was appointed in
August, 1856, and served as one
of three judges handling domes-
tic relations and contested di-
vorce cases.
Judge Munter, naturalized
here in 1919, is a graduate Of
George Washington University
and the National University
Law School, from which he
holds a doctor Of laws degree.
He had been in general law
practice here since 1919 before
mis- appointment to the bench.
Judge Munter described his
future plans as somewhat
nebulous for the moment.
But, he said, the possibility is
that he will join in private
practice with his two sons, God

President Eisenhower asked
Congress today to approve an

ming July /.
Also sent to Congress by the
White House was a request for
$28 million to finance the ad-
ministration's plan for q re-
gional sewerage system to pro-
tect the areas water supply.
The $11,703,373 supplemental
requets for the city would pay
for about $10.1 million in capi-
tai outlay construction items,
nearly 81 million in miscellane-
Gus operating expenses. about
1000 for debt service and
about 500, 900 in miscellaneous
claims and suits.
81 Million U. S. Payment
Under the Districts pro-
posal, cleared by the Federal
Budget Bureau. this spending
would be financed by a 81
million Federal payment and
the balance from reserves and
increases in local revenue.
The $28 million portion of
the supplemental reques t
would cover a $25 million Fed
eral loan and SO million Fed
eral grant. This money would
be appropriated only upon
passage of the pending bill
authorizing construction of a
giant interceptor sewer line to
carry wastes from the Dulles
International Airport and 9TH

This bill was passed by the

0nCA Advice
Dryden Defends
His Agency at
Senate Inquiry
By j.. A. OLEARY
T. star staff Writer

DR.. Hugh L. Dryden, deputy
administrator of the National
Aeronautics and Space Admin
istration. told the Senate For-'
eign Relations Committee to-.
day his agency acted on the
advice of the Central Intelli-
gence Agency in releasing its
statement of May S describing
the U-2 spy plane flight over
Russia as q weather mission.
The May 5th statement elab-
GRATED on a brief announcement
that had been made from an
American air base in Turkey
on May 3 describing the fight
as a weather mission.
Some Democrats on the
Senate Committee have been
critical of the way the U-2
incident. was handled by the
administration, in first using
the weather flight cover story
and later admitting that it
was an espionage mission.
Defense Agency Action
Dr.. Dryden defended the ac-
tion of his agency In issuing
its statement of May S, exc
planning that the only infor-
nation it had at that time
was that James c. Hagerty,
White House press secretary.
had told reporters inforna-
ton about the plane would be
provided by NASA and the
State Department.
DR.. Dryden explained that
his agency obtained from CIA
the answers it was to make to
10 series of questions from
newsrnen. He said it was de-
cided to put them all together
in o statement rather than q
free for all press conference. /
DR.. Dryden admitted that
NASA did not submit the text
of the statement to CIA or the
State Department, but that all
of the facts in 1t had been OBJ
tanned separately from CrA.
Or. Dryden insisted he did
not know when the statement
was issued on May S that a
high level decision had been
reached several hours earlier
to let the State Department do
all of the talking. He said he
did not get this information
until the next day.
Cites Constructive Point
Chairman Fulbrigft, Demo-
crat of Arkansas, said he felt
that If the NASA statement
had Z been submitted to the
State Department for clearance
1T would never have been
made"
One of, the constructive points
that may come out of the In
vestigation, Senator Fulbright
said, is that all agencies will
clear all matters dealing with
foreign affairs, with the State
Department.

Cancer Study
.'ThrowsLight

CHICAGO. Nov. IS tAP).-I
The vast majority Of cancer
cells floating in the bloodstream
soon die, but the few that sur
vive lodge in organs. multiply
and ultimately can kill. q re-
search team has demonstrated.
, The research with mice
showed that the tiny cancers
starting from these floating
cells grow by dividing at a
constant rate Of once each 20
hours. It is only when these
cancer cell colonies become big
enough TO be seen or felt or
cause pain or other trouble
that they are noticed.
9. The findings may help ex-
plain q phenomenon observed
in humans - patients whose
malignant tumors have been
removed surgically may have
cancer cells in their blood
streams, but show no recur-
renee for years after the opera
ton.
Mice Are Used
= Results of the research were
described yesterday by the
American Cancer Society. The
society's Illinois division helped
support the studies by Drs.
Renato Baserga. Walter E. XII
sieleski and Karen Halvorsen of
Northwestern University Med
ical School and the Argonne
National Laboratory.
TN the research, the scien-
lists injected a number Of can
Ger cells into the veins Of mice.
Then they injected radioactive
thymidine "a natural COM
pound which rapidly growing
cells readily take up and in
corporate in their genes, the
carriers of heredity. A day or
two later the researchers killed
some mice and with radiation
detection devices searched each
organ for radioactive cancer
cells.
Few Survive
7 They found that only eight
Of every thousand injected can
Ger cells survived. The survivors
that lodged in the lungs or
other organs took up, within
two hours, the thymidine and
other materials needed for cell
division. One hundred per cent
Of the surviving cells began
growing by dividing at the rate
Of once every 20 hours.
The research indicated that
discovery Of any drug that
would slow the cell division rate
beyond 20 hours would prolong
the lives Of subjects suffering
from cancers Of this type.
