Air Increase Pops Up

The Navy's 90 volunteer

point Of their two-week entomb-

forward eagerly to their per-

Wednesday.

Furor Over Harmful Drugs

advised Of the results Of tests
and whether any danger
signs have been noted.
1t can happen that drugs
tested with good results on
animals may be injurious
when used BY human beings.
Also. drugs intended for use
in treating certain ailments
may prove harmful among
patients who also happen to
have ailments Of another
kind ct the same time.
Testing Is q long and la
bortous process. Impatience

Of q miracle" cure for some
disease, and the remedy Is for
one reason or another with

the criticism heard was that

when the drugs noted In the
headlines were said to be
achieving good results.

Many. other advances have

Protection of Reseoreh as Well as Public
Sailed Necessary in Modern Medicine

Periodically In American
history there has been a ma
tional furor over q poisoned
food or o harmful drug. The
end result Of the agitation Is
usually beneficial. The pub
lie demand for closer super
vision or investigation Is
needed.
The current controversy
comes at q time when drugs
In other countries, as wen as
our own, have achieved q
remarkable acceptance. The
people have had an almost
unbounded confidence In the
drugs offered them. But now
there Is q danger that the
reaction may 60 the other
way and that confidence in
drugs Is such may diminish.
Hence, In what the Gov
eminent does now, it is es-
sential to protect the public,
but 1t is important also to
continue the drug research
that can reduce human suf-
fering and increase the span
Of life.
The average person knows
very little about the risks
that are involved in drugs
that haven't been widely
tested. II Is doubtful II the
mind Of the prospective user
turns very much. to the risks
1nvoived-the tendency Is to
believe in the doctor who
prescribes 1t or the pharma-
ctst who recommends it.
The United States Food
ana Drug Administration was
established as the result Of a
law passed on June 80, 1905,
during the administration Of
President Theodore Roosevelt.
It was created largely because
OF the widespread controversy
developed at the time by DR..
Harvey w. Wiley, who as.
sailed the distribution Of
adulterated foods and drugs.
A law also was passed on the
same day requiring inspec-
ton Of meat-packing estab-
lishments, some Of which had
been accused Of maintaining
unsanitary facilities.
Much progress has been
made in this field during the
last IS years, but again and
again 1t has been brought to
the attention Of the public
that regulation is inadequate

find Congress not only eau
tious but possibly even skit-
fish.
The situation Is the harder
because Of hints In diplo-
matte circles that Soviet
Prime Minister Khrushchev
has decided to visit America
again. ostensibly to attend
the United Nations. Harsh
Soviet rejection of the Ken
nedy test-ban proposals does
not indicate that Mr.. Khru-
shchev win be an agreeable
visitor.
Before the Republicans
complained with such rare
unanimity, the President in
sisted aggressively that his
nuclear proposals were made
possible by recent progress
in detecting underground ex-
plosions. He has no press
conference this week and 20
cannot be pressed for o re-
ply to the Republican attack.
Without mentioning the crit
les. the State Department Is
repeating the Kennedy de-
Tense that he is reacting real
istically to changed condi-
tons.
Few believe that it would
be possible to get from this
Congress, 50 close to the fan
election, any reasoned dis

or that inspection Is not as
effective as 1t should be.
Today, the United States
Food and Drug Administra-
ton Is q part Of the Depart
ment Of Health, Education
and Welfare. New regulations
on drugs have Just been
drafted for study by the med
zeal profession. the drug In
dustry. scientific societies
and other interested groups.
The regulations will 60 into
effect with such changes or
improvements as may result
from the comments Of those
making the study during the
next so days.
Broadly speaking, the basic
principles are related to full
disclosure Of what q drug
contains and also q require
ment for thorough investiga-
ton Of the effects noted In
the testing process.
Ethical doctors, as Q rule.
do not tell their patients to
take drugs that are risky.
Where there Is Q risk. 1t Is
outlined and the patient may
use his discretion whether or
not to participate In o test.
What Is very important to
police Is the nature and
scope Of the investigations
made when drugs are being
tested. How competent are
the so-called experts" who
do the testing7 Are the drugs
tried out under proper linn
itations and with compre-
hensive records kept about
the side effects? These are
the detectives Of the new
regulations, though 1t may
be said the purposes have
been the same In the past.

the degree of intensity In
policing the experimental

manufacturers or over-zeal-
Gus distributors Of drugs are
unwilling to wait for q thor
ough check. Sometimes In

inefficiency in collecting or
In studying the data.

10 another case In point. The
pros and cons Of the various
proposals on II are not easy
TO understand. The White
House mail repeatedly shows
that Q majority Of the writer's
favor Mr.. Kennedy's proposal,
but not by any overwhelming
margins. Anyway. since letter.
writing campaigns can be or
ganized, the mail 10 not neces-
sarily o reliable barometer Of
public opinion.
The Mid-Term Political Factor
And finally. there 10 the fac
tor Of political history.
In al the mid-tern elections
OF this century. the party hold
ing the White House made rel
ative gains In Congress only
once. In 1884. during Franklin
d. Rooseyelt's first term, the
Democrats picked I'D 10 Sem
ate seats and nine In the
House. Otherwise. the Gins"
always lost ground. Thus, MIR.
Kennedy frequently says. ''his-
tory ID against U.S."
This year. however. the DEM
ocrats hopefully advance o.
proposition that can be termed
the "fat theory"
It 10 based on the PROPOSE
ton that when O President is
elected by an overwhelming ma
jority, he pulls In with him
numbers Of Congressman who
would not have made 1t on
their own. They constitute that
fat" and are most likely to
be defeated In the mid.term
election.
Mr.. Kennedy came to the
presidency with Q razor-thin
margin, not Q great majority.
Therefore, the reasoning goes.
there Is no "fat" among the
Democrats In Congress now,
and therefore history may not
run true to form next fall.
