What a mess of foot marks

Has anyone either seen or
had built a vestibule to serve

As Duped
BY the Associated Press

Senator Fulbright, Democrat
of Arkansas, says some mill
tary officers have permitted
their prestige and official posi-
ton to be exploited "by per-
sons with extreme views on
highly controversial political
issues"
This was what he was trying
to end with his recent memo
randum to Secretary of De-
fense Mcnamara, Senator Full
bright said yesterday in a
speech at the opening session
of the National War College
and Industrial College of the
Armed Forces.
Some critics, notably Sena-
tor Thurmond, Democrat OF
South Carolina, have charged
it was an attempt to muzzle
the military.
THE primary objective OF
my recommendation was to
assure that military personnel
adhere to the obligation, which
is inherent in their duty as
soldiers, to refrain from pub
lie criticism Of the over all
political policies, as distin-
guished from the technical
military policies, of the Gov
ernment and of their COM
mander in chief" Senator
Fulbright said.
When military officers lend
their support to groups which
espouse policies that generate
"distruSt and suspicion among
our people" they do a disserv-
ice to the country, said Sena-
tor Fulbright.
The Arkansas Senator, who
is chairman of the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee,
said that although his memo
randum set forth instances of
alleged speeches at military
sponsored forums by radical
right-wing speakers" he would
have been equally concerned
had I known of military par
ticipation in attacks from the
extreme left"

self in readiness for any action
necessary to rescue the men
on it.
Col. Banks has a wife and
two sons, 6 and 8.
The tower that collapsed was
one. Of three set up off the
Atlantic Seaboard to sound
warning Of a possible enemy
air attack. The structure, with
legs made fast to the ocean
bottom, supported radar equip
ment and the crew manning it,.
The aver called "Old
Shaky" by some Of its per-
sonnel-was struck by a vio-
lent storm. Radio contact was
lost.
Rescue planes and ships that
sped to the scene found the
tower had disappeared. Divers
went down to examine the
wreckage. 1t was hoped for a
time that some of the personnel
had survived in air-filted COM
partmentS, because tappings
inside the hull were reported.
But the noises stopped. The
wreckage is still under water.

Oxygen Lack
Held Factor
in Cancer

CHICAGO, Aug. 22 CAP) -
Laboratory confirmation of a
36-year-old theory that cells
turn cancerous after starving
for oxygen was reported today
by a University Of Chicago re-
search group.
George T. Okita, assistant
professor in the univerSity'S De-
partment Of Pharmacology and
asstaff member of the Argonne
Cancer Research Hospital, and
Esmat A. Ezz, a graduate stu
dent, demonstrated the action
in experiments with mice.
By testing the radioactive
breath of mice, they can tell if
the animal has cancer or is
about to become cancerous. A
change in the cells metabolism
precedes the development Of
the cancer tumor.
A paper describing the ex-
periments was prepared for the
first international pharmacoI-
ogy meeting in Stockholm,
Sweden.
Otto Warburg, 1881 German
Nobel Prize winner, postulated
that all cancer is the result of
oxygen deprivation in the cell.
He reasoned that as the cell
gasps for more oxygen to stay
alive, it switches over its fuel
burning system to a primitive
method of metabolism in which
less oxygen is required. DR..
Warburg demonstrated in the
test tube that the change in
fuel burning method converts
the normal cell into a cancer
cell.
The Chicago scientists in
jected glucose and acetate con-
tanning radioactive carbon IA
into a strain of mice highly
susceptible to developing can
Ger. These substances are
called biochemical intermedi-
ates. They are Immediately
used in the cell machinery.
After injection, each mouse
was placed in a small chamber
and the air each exhaled was
collected and measured.
This exhaled air contained
radioactive carbon dioXide.
BY measuring the amount Of
radioactive carbon dioxide, the
scientists could tell whether
the glucose and acetate were
being burned within the
mouse's cells via a normal or
primitive method.

Both Initial Papers
But when it came to sign
ing, the Americans insisted
they would only inscribe their
initials at this time. That way
the agreement remains on ice
until the governments formally
