Hope for Cancer Victims

The annual report of the American
Cancer Society is message of hope for
many present and future victims of this
Still-mySteriouS disease. For some of the
mysteries of cancer already are begin
ming to yield to the intensive researches
Of multitude of laboratory experts.
And some types of cancer definitely
have been cured.
In fact, the society says that about
a million persons who once had cancer
are alive and healthy today, thanks to
the discovery and use of new techniqueS
and new medicines. A majority of this
cured cancer" group undoubtedly
would have been dead today if we knew
no more about cancer than we did Is
years ago. Most encouraging of the
statistics given in the report is the
statement that one out of three cancer
victims now is being cured, whereas the
ratio OF cures quarter of century ago
was one in seven.
Drugs, surgery and radiation, cou-
pied with greatly improved methods of
diagnosing cancer in its early stages,
are credited with the saving of many
lives. And the research goes on relent-
lessly, with results that justify qualified
optimism that some cancers which do
not now respond to treatment will be
conquered eventually. At present the
laboratories are pushing forward in
their studies of the relation of viruses to
cancer, of the effectiveness of chemo-
therapy and of means of possibly i'm
munizing the human body against GER
tain kinds of cancer
All of the researchers are spurred by
the hope, however faint, that break
through" may develop, paving the way
for final mastery of the dread disease.
Man has conquered number of other
scourges in recent years-and the con-
quest of cancer in its worst forms may
be the next historic medical achieve

to ignore valid evidence Of deep harm,
where and when inflicted on American
industries by import competition At the
same time, over the vast range of prod

merce there are many opportunities for
mutually beneficial adjustments in tariff

THE POLITICAL MILL
Right Wing Revolt in New York
By GOULD LINCOLN

the m KIM 8 Tor several
months, and is now prepar-
ing to go forward. Earl Mazo,
national political correspond
ent Of the New York Herald
Tribune, quoted Herman
ODoherty. State chairman
Of the Conservative Party, as
saying: Looking to 1864, If
Rockefeller wins big in 1862
over a lackluster Democrat
Tin the contest for Governor)
he might manage to steam
roller the Republican Ma
tional Convention to get the
presidential nomination Ell
ther for himself or for some
one Of his choice. We believe
that the best possible tactic
is to remove this albatross
from around the Republican
Party's neck now"
This is harsh language for
any Republican to apply to
the Governor Of New York.
Mr.. Mazo added that he had
been told by a principal be-
hind the = scenes strategist"
OF the new party that he (the
strategist) votes for Demo-
Gratis IN preference to nom
100 per cent conservative Re-
publicanS. Further, that the
members Of the new party
consider Gov. Rockefeller and
Sen. JavitS as two liberal Re-
publicans who must be
knocked off If the Conserva-
tive Party is to become really
effective in its drive to put a
conservative stamp firmly on
the COP.
Reactions to Threat
The threat to the re-elec-
ton Of Gov. Rockefeller and
Sen. Javits posed by the new
Conservative Party Is var
iouSly estimated. The Demo-
Gratis. Of course, regard with
satisfaction the activities
against these two highly
placed Republicans. Some Re-
publicans take the view that
the activities of the right
wingers may actually have
the effect of gaining Gov.
Rockefeller and Senator Ja-
Wits votes from independents
and some Democrats. Chair
man Miller insists that splin-
ter parties tend to break
down the two-party system
OF government in this coun-
try. IF the members of this
conservative group in New
York wish to make the Re-
publican Party in New York
more conservative and re-
sponsive to their views, they
should work within the
party-not outside of it," he
told this correspondent.
There are more registered
Democrats than registered
Republicans in New York.
Any defections from party
candidates such as Gov.
Rockefeller and Senator
Javits are a disservice to the
G. o. p, party leaders admit.
But they still believe that
both will win reelection, not
only because of their good
records in office. but because
the Democrats have no ade-
quate candidates to run
against them. Further, the
Democrats have deep riffs in
their own party today.
Evening star., 1962-04-17

4uCs sCOiloCINdLlfG 1cAQCIS OF
the Republican Party in New
York are not taking kindly
to the efforts of an extremist
group, calling itself the
Conservative Party of New
York. There is no good rea-
son why they should, so far.
For these extremists are out
to defeat Gov. Nelson A.
Rockefeller and Senator ia
cob j. JavitS for reelection
in the elections next fall.
Conservative upstate Re-
publican Congress m e n
(among them Republican
National Chairman William
E. Miller regard these ends
of the Conservative Party as
assinine. They do not for q
moment concede that the
extremist group can bring
about such results, even If
the extremists go to the ex-
tent Of putting their own
candidates for Governor and
Senator in the field, or even
of casting votes for the DEM
ocratic nominees.
The ultimate end Of the
leaders of the Conservative
Party, which is now in the
throes Of organizing, go far
beyond the elimination of
Gov. Rockefeller and Sen.
Javits, they say. They wish
to become q counterpart of
the Liberal Party of New
York-that left-wing group
which has existed in the
State for a score and more
years and on a number Of
occasions has been the savior
Of Democratic candidates for
Federal and State offices. On
far fewer occasions the Lib
eral Party, by putting candi-
dates of its own in the field
or even supporting Republi-
can candidates, has brought
about the defeat Of Demo-
cratic candidates for these
offices. The Liberal Party,
which got underway with the
support of powerful labor
leaders, however, has been a
pain in the neck to the regu-
lar Democratic Party. Demo-
cratic leaders have had to
yield places on their tickets
to candidates supported by
the Liberal Party, and to
grant some Of the Liberals
patronage-government en-
ployment and offices. Lead
ers Of the Republican Party
do not relish the idea Of hav-
ing to submit to this kind of
thing if the Conservative
Party really gets going.
'Splinters' Not New
Splinter parties are nothing
new to New York politics,
though the Liberal Party to
date has been the outstanding
and most powerful example.
Another is the Brotherhood
Party. Important labor lead
ers were responsible for the
Brotherhood Party-suppoSed
to be non-partisan and to
care for the interests of the
working people. This Broth
erhood Party, organized last
year, supported Bob Wagner
in the mayoralty race in New
York City, casting some 50,-
900 votes. The newer Con-
servative Party has been in

mans all-Llme major VEN
ture in science is under way.
1t is the program, now pro-
jected over a decade or more,
for exploration of nearby
space - perhaps eventually
distant space-set up at the
Goddard Space Flight Cen
ter in Maryland Just outside
Washington, with other lab
oratories cooperating.
There has been much re-
search already. It is quite
puny, however, in compari-
son with what lies ahead.
Here, and in the Center's
New York extension, some of
this country's foremost SCI
entists are devoting their best
efforts to what lies ahead. 1t
is a highly complex organiza-
tion of astronomers, physi-
cists, chemists, geologists.
biologists and technicians in
all these fields for, 1t is be-
coming more and more clear,
space exploration will have q
bearing on all human inter-
ests.
New Concepts to Come
Much of the research can
be done without leaving the
laboratories. Its findings can
be checked later. Utility, per
Sc, is not a primary objec-
tive. It is certain to develop
incidentally in the investiga-
tions.
The public mind has been
centered chiefly to date on
the findings and detectives in
the physical sciences. Out Of
the space studies will come, as
lately outlined by DR.. Robert
JaStrow on the Center staff,
new concepts in these three
central questions:
The structure of stars and
galaxies, the evolution of
stars, and the cosmic abun-
dances Of the elements.
The origin and evolution of
the solar system, the forma-
ton of the sun, and the early
histories and present struc-
lures Of the planets.
Solar control over the at
mosphere of the earth, the
causes of weather activity in
the lower atmosphere, and
the structure of the upper
atmosphere.
Mans little knowledge to
date on the genesis and evo-
luton of stars has been
gained through analysis of
their light as received by
telescopes on the ground. Yet
the fraction of this light
which gets through the at
mosphere is extremely small.
The atmosphere filters out all
the information which could
be obtained from ultraviolet
light, X-rays, gamma rays
and large parts of the infra-
red and radio regions. Sud-
denly science finds itself in

a position to overcome all
this with orbiting telescopes
above the atmosphere.
Design Of the rockets and,
above all, Interpretation of
the spectra obtained is a ma
jor job at the Goddard Gen.
ter. Two major branches of
science are united in study of
the origin of the solar sys-
tenn and the development Of
planets. First is astrophysics,
in the consideration Of proc
esses attendant on forma-
ton of the primitive sun and
the surrounding solar nebulae,
and geophysics in the at
tempt to deduce the early
histories of the planets from
their present structures. 1t
is an attempt to roll back
history about five billion
years.
Thorough exploration of
the moon and the planets
still is some years away. Some
notable results, however, have
been obtained already. Rus
slams, for example, have been
able to obtain photographs
of the hidden face Of the
moon, of which hitherto there
has been no knowledge what
soever, with an orbiting sat
elite. The American pro-
gram will have started in
earnest by the end of this
year.
Main Question
The lunar and planetary
explorations will open up the
field which some of the God
dard Center scientists con-
slider the most important of
all-the possible presence of
life or near-life outside the
earth. Much research now
is being directed in this field.
Probably no research insti-
tuition ever has had a faster
growth. A little over a year
ago the site was woods and
fields. Now it is covered with
laboratories. More than 1000
persons, many Of them emf
nent scientists, are employed
there and the number is ex-
pected to undergo consider
able expansion as new fields
of research are opened.
Incidentally, the great lab
oratory center may be con-
sidered a fitting memorial to
the father of all space SCI
ence, DR.. Robert Goddard.
About AZ years ago, while an
assistant professor of physics
at Clark University in Mas
sachusetts he reported on
theoretical possibilities of
sending a missile of some
sort to the moon. The whole
movement may well have
started with a paper he pre-
sented Just after World War
I before the National Acad-
emy Of Sciences.

Major Fiscal.
Crisis Seen
orVirgiinia

The chairman Of the Repub-
lican 10th District Committee
warned last night that Virginia
is threatened with a fiscal
crisis Of major proportions"
The chairman, Robert j. Cor
Der. speaking at a committee
meeting in Arlington, empha-
sized that the committee should
study the States fiscal policy.
Mr.. Gerber said that an esti-
mated S1.35 billion will be
necessary for I954-196S just to
sustain the States present level
of operation and maintenance.
But the present tax struc-
ture, he said, is expected to
yield general fund revenues of
only $1.1 billion for operations
and maintenance. The deficit
must be made up in tax in
creases or economies in gov
eminent, he said, adding that
''if taxes alone are to solve the
problem an increase of IS per
cent or more would be unavoid-
able"
Mr.. Gerber said: In the next
five years college enrolment;
will jump an anticipated so pei
cent and public school attend
ance will increase 20 per cent
or more. Our 65-and-over pop
ulation is increasing at a rate
Of 80 per cent and above.
ut is not possible to leave
the responsibility for meeting
these mounting needs to loca
government in Virginia. They
already have an Indebtedness o.
over $500 million. Considering
only Arlington and Fairfax
that is well over $225 pc
capita"
Mr.. Gerber summed up: Re
publicans must contribute theiI
talent and resources to helping
the people Of Virginia locatl

Square Dance
Time

Last weekend was a busy dane
ing time. On Friday the Ed
Burlingames and the Charles
Carriers were invited guests of the
''Funsters" of Silver Springs, Nd,
where Les Chewing is the caller.
Five couples the Bowmans the
Curreys, the Links, the Davises
and the Wellers, visited the
'sWhirlaways" in Seaford who got
their fall season off to a fine start.
But the Big Night was here in
Milford where the Diamond State
Twirlers" were hosts to over four
squares of new dancers! A really
good time was reported by guests
and hosts as we'll. It looks as if
fine class will be starting tbs
Friday night, September 21, in the
small room at the Milford Bowling
| Lanes.
The open door to the vast
class, is one of the big elements
that makes today's square dance
considerably different from til e
square dance traditionally enjoyed
in grandmother's day. Here in the
class, the spirit of the activity as
well as the mechanics of the
dance, are taught. Glass days are
often the most enjoyable days in
square dancing for discovering
the sheer joy of moving to music,
in reaction to the callers CALL can
be revelation to one who has
never been exposed to something
of this nature before.
Those who would like to join
the fun this fall, and learn to
square dance may join this class
on Friday. If you missed the First
Nighter Party last Saturday, don't
despair you may still dance :
this Friday only on trial
basis. After this date the class
will be closed.
On Saturday, September %, Jim
Cargill will again be back to call
for the club. Those who attended
the last dance of the summer
session remember what a "ball''
that was. So, come early and plan
to stay late! See you there.

the Irwin Bowmns and their al
ternates, the Franklin Curreys, at

ton, Va, this week. Plans for the

give the non-college bound student
training in a particular vocation.
1t serves primarily the tenth,
eleventh, and twelfth grades with
a variety OF 13 courses. Each
course is the equivalent of 21a
credits.
To complete their education, the
pupils take regular subjects in
English, history, physical educa-
ton. and science in their home
high school. A period of three
years is generally required to COM
plete each course At the end of
a pupils training, they are offered
jobs by businessmen and COM
panies.
For those interested there are
courses in commercial foo d
preparation, electronics, cabinet
making, beauty culture, practical
nursing, carpentry, drafting, and

The Bucs hit hard by graduation
and transfers will face a high
school that has shown remarkable
improvement in football circles.
The starting line-up has not
been decided upon as many posi-
tions are still open. The kickoff
is slated for 500 pm. Given
break by the weatherman, a large
crowd should be on hand to wit
ness the fray.
