Twenty years ago the standard
treatment for leprosy was hydno
carpus oil, administered as an unc-
tion or by injection. It was hailed
as remarkable cure until relapses
were reported.
DR.. Hilton said he was surprised,
in q recent tour Of the Orient, to
find the oil still being used in
India.
Dapsone was first tried in lep-
rosy cases in 1948, when the late
DR.. John Lowe, a leprologist serv-
ing in Eastern Nigeria, gave small
doses to patients and reported re-
markarble results. The pill had
been used against tuberculosis but
had been rejected as too toxic.
DR.. Hilton credits DIR. Charles
M. Ross, senior specialist leprolo-
gist, who recently retired after 80
years in Nigeria, with being the
first person to "put treatment on
a realistic basis, making full use
of e cheap, potent drug"
Today there are about 1000
treatment centers in Northern Nj
geria where the pills are admins
tered. They must be gulped down
on the spot. This is to assure that
the lepers do not sell the pills on
the black market.
The pills are supplied free by
the United Nations Children's Fund
with the proviso that they be
given without charge. Patients
star: with one-half tablet week,
the dosage being increased to five
or six tablets a week. Northern
Nigeria requires 100000 to co.
100000 of these pills annually, DIR.

NATIONAL LEAGUE rated AS
BAsEBALL's ONLY BIG LEAGUE
Sports Illustrated Says Negro Players Key
To Superiority Over American League

New York, July 20.-The extent
of the growing weakness of the
American League was revealed in
last weeks two All-Star Games,
says the July 18th issue of Sports
Illustrated. The magazine rates the
National alone in its claim to being
big league and points to the Negro
players as the crux of National
League strength.
while the American League has
weakened" writer Walter Bing-
ham states, "the National League,
thanks to q steady influx of tai
ented Negro ballplayers, has i'm
proved. The National League has
four times as many Negroes as the
American has, and certainly all the
outstanding ones. Perhaps this is
because Jackie Robinson, the first
Negro big Lacquer, played in the
National League. Maybe it is be-
cause American League club own
ers were slow in yielding to the
changing times In any case, the

Negro ballplayer has made the Ma

The American Leagues Minnie
Minoso, Vic Power, Elson Howard
and AL Smith are good, the article
says, but they cannot compare with
the Nationals Henry Aaron, Willie
Mays and Ernie Banks, basebalPs
top hitters, or with Frank Robin
son, Orlando Cepeda, Vada Pinson,
Roberto Clemente and Bill White.
It is Significant, Sports Illustrated
thinks, that in the seventh inning
of the New York All-Star Game
the National League fielded six Ne
groes at one time.
Reviewing the play and results
of the two All-Star Games this
year, in which the American Lea
que was beaten decisively twice in
three days, the article points out
that the Nationals have won nine
of the last Is games-a situation
no longer without meaning. In re-

lost the title in June, 1859, to In
gemar Johansson of Sweden, there
was no gift-both men were too
upset for such sentimental niceties.
But when Patterson knocked out
Johansson this year and regained
the world championship, D'Amato
decided to do something different
and "big."
Thus, the gold crown, with its
diamonds and rubies and sapphires.

$4,000 Crown

New York, July 22-Floyd Pat
terson received a small token of
esteem-a jeweled crown valued at
$35, 900 from his manager, Gus
D'Amato, last night.
The coronation" of the world
heavyweight boxing champion took
place in the Grand Ballroom of the

feast was spread and those who
came to honor the boy who rose
from the streets of New York to

William P. Rogers, the United

right track; Arthur Levitt, the
New York State Controller, and

of the Nationals. And even though
the Yankees have recovered from
their collapse of last year, they
are not the terrors of old. "The
National League had no trouble
at all with them in the All-Star
Games" says the article. "The
Yankee block (Maris, Mantle, Sko-
wron and Berra battel in success
sion) managed only three hits, all
singles, in Is at-bats for a .167
average. And Whitley Ford, the
Yankees best pitcher, gave up five
hits, two of them home runs, thus
losing the second game"

URBAN LEAGUE
AIDS HUNGRY
BABES IN LA.

Raymond Hilliard, former New
York City Commissioner of We'll
fare and presently Director of
Welfare, Cook County, Illinois,
presented a check for $3.722 to
the National Urban Leagues OPP
GRAFTON: Feed the Babies.
Operation: Feed the Babies is
an effort by the League to pro-
vide food and clothing to children
cut from Louisiana State well
fare rolls by action of the state
legislature last summer.
Mr.. Alexander ]. Allen, Asso-
ciate Director of the Matt ional Ur-
ban League. accepted the check
on behalf of the League. Hillard
said that employees of the Cook
County Welfare Department had
contributed the money. The latest
report by Mr.. ]. Harvey Kerns.
Executive Director, Urban
League of Greater New Orleans,
is that in New Orleans parish
40% of the children removedfrom
the rolls are still off - an es-
timated 1000 children. To date
COZ of the children in the parish
have been reinstated on the well
fare rolls. Those children who
are still off are suffering real
hardship. The Urban League in
New Orleans is feeding and cloth
ing children at about the rate of
200 day, Kerns said. And many
have not started school because
of lack of clothing. A growing
problem among those still off
the rolls is eviction for nom
payment of rent by private land
lords. The league is supplying
funds when available to prevent
this. 1t is also paying prescrip-
tion bills for those who are ill.
Besides it's office at 2lO8 Jack
son Avenue in New Orleans, the
Urban League has established
second office across the river
to serve the towns of Westbank,
Gretna and Algiers. Outside of
New Orleans, as few as 81 to
lO% of the children removed from
the rolls have been re-accepted,
Kerns said.
MIR. Hillard stated "The Urban
League is the only organization
that has lifted a finger to do
anything about this. All the other
national helath and welfare Or
ganizations have felt that it was
not in their bailiwick or some
thing. The Urban League which
has no facilities nor money to
give Financial aid was the only
one thdt had the( (gumption to do
anything" "

VOU CAN TALK ABOUT the price of gold all you

that the old days can come back.
One such man is 88-year-old Walter Hamilton,

He condemns the fact that gold frozen" at

Now we don't pretend to be the monetary expert
that he is but he does relate interesting story:
Between 97 and 1926 gold rose, with other COM

costs of transportation continued to climb and al
though the greater part of the north had never been
scratched they could not keep going and only big

when gold is set free at $75 more per ounce,
