After extensive hearings,
the House Ways and Means
COMMITTEE is now engaged
in putting the bin IN shape
for report to the House.
Upon the final shape Of its
report win depend IN consid-
cradle part how much and
from what sources opposition

bill as presented by the ad-
ininistration places great
powers over trade agreements

tirers and their workers are
fearful. Attempts may be
made to cut down the period.
some are demanding that
Congress retain veto powers.
But the President argues that
he must have Q free hand in
negotiations, or he win be
greatly handicapped. The {

dealing with the issue point
out that the trade agree

Cancers start easier ano

In males.
This has Just been reported.
on the basis Of experiments
with mice, from the Cancer
Research Laboratory of the
Atomic Energy Commission.
The mouse results probably
also apply TO humans. ~.

says the report, "are known
to be influenced by the sex
Of the host: Female mice
are usually more susceptible
than males. It also has been
shown that the incidence Of
metaStasis -tsmor spread
Is higher In female than In
male mice bearing chemically
induced skin tumors. Also.
rats with mammary tumorS
and treated with estrogehs-
female sex hormones-show
higher freQuencies Of meta

"This greater susceptibility
may be explained either by
an increased growth rate Of
the tumor or by increased
survival Of the original tumor
cells"
In the experiments O fixed
number Of turnor cells taken
from males was injected into
the tails Of II male and 10
female mice. They were
labeled with O radioactive
substance. After 10 days the
animals were sacrificed and
the lungs weighed. It was
found that the weight Of the
lungs Of both sexes increased,
but that Of the females con-
siderably more than that Of
the males. At that time the
uptake OF the labeled malig-
nant cells by the lungs was
about five times higher In
females than In males.
In both sexes the majority
Of the injected cells which
lodged In the lungs failed to
survive, but the number Of
surviving cells was much
greater In the females.
'The evidence suggests, I"
says the report, '.that the in-
creased number Of metastases
In female mice Is due to this
increased survival. However,
once they are established In
the lungs the malignant cells
grow at the same rate in both

Causes of Crime

I agree wholeheartedly
with ]. c. Chatham (''Let-
ters to the STAR, April 24),
that the rampant crime on
the streets OF Washington Is
shameful. However, I beg to
differ with his proposition
that the proper remedy con-
sists only in additional su-
pervtsion; ! maintain that
such an approach Is negative
and viii never attain its end,
since It Is only aimed at the
effect rather than the cause.
The crux Of the problem is
that every man is to O great
extent the product Of his en-
vironment, and the environ
ments from which many Of
our criminals spring are de-
scribable only In unprintable
terms. A random survey Of
case histories In any juvenile
court. mental hospital, or
social-work agency will
amply support this assertion.
While It Is undoubtedly
important and necessary to
patrol the streets for the pro-
lection Of honest citizens, it
is nevertheless even more i'm
poftant and necessary to at
tempt to reform the environ
mental causes rather than
merely to eliminate their
effect. rt..
I do not maintain that we
viii ever succeed In creating
an all-perfect environment,
but I do maintain that this
Is Q positive mode Of action
that must be pursued. This
outlook viii undoubtedly
strike many as q Pollyanna
type Of thought. These, how
ever. are the people who in

ative approach Of your April

only . partial solution. It
does Us no good to evaluate
our fellow man primarily in
terms Of an economic or
criminal statistic who can do
what he pleases as long as
we can prevent him from
hurting Us.
In conclusion, let me point
out that an honest examina-
ton Of o case history viii
often reveal that 1t Is the
criminal rather than his VIC
tim who Is In need Of the

TIE POLITICAL MILL
Freer Trade a Sine Qua Non
By COULD LINCOLN

President John ?. Kennedy,
going About for his trade
expansion bill now expected
to come before the House Of
Representative in the next
two or three weeks, has de-
clared: I'VE must decide
whether we are to trade or
fade" To some this win ap-
pear an over-simplIf Ification.
They win want to know on
what terms we are to trade.
As Of today, however, the
trade expansion bill has not
become Q partisan political
issue between the Democratic
and Republican Parties-in
Congress or outside. The Re-
publican congressional lead
ers, Senator Dirksen Of uh-
nois and Representative Hall
leck Of Indiana, former Pres
ident Eisenhower and former
vice President Nixon, Gov.
Rockefeller Of New York and
many others prominent In
COP. affairs and policies,
believe al firmly as do Pres
ident Kennedy and Vice
President Lyndon johnson
that the United States has
grown great because Of the
ability If its citizens to trade.
The underlying purpose Of
the trade expansion bin Is to
place this country In position
to meet and deal with the
ever-expanding European
Common Market and its COM
petition for markets through
out the world.
Vital IN Drive Against Reds

New Orleans address yester-

The drive for enactment

(Which Mr.. Kennedy regards
as 30 essential to the country's
future), begun months ago,
Is now being intensified. The
Committee For o National

legislation for trade expan-

ton Of world Trade Week

and on the farms through

sponsor and support such q
program, and ! congratulate
the Virginia Museum Of Fine
Arts on its splendid work.
Indeed, 1t is something to be
emulated by our other forty
nine sister States.
I am sorry, however, that
The Star did not have the
necessary information to en-
able it to include the story Of
travelling educational exhibits
started by the Valentine Mu-
scum thirty-two years ago.
This museum, owned by
the people Of Greater Rich
mond. and dedicated to me-
morializing the life and his
tory Of its city. initiated this
educational program for
school children In 1880. Be-
cause Of lack Of funds it can
not operate schoolmobiles but
it does carry on an organized
statewide program Of lectures,
school loans, and special prof.
ectS which served approx
mately 100000 school chill
dren last year in. Virginia
outside the Richmond area.
These exhibits on history and
geography travel by express
at museum expense (the State
and city contribute, small
amounts) to schools through
out the State. Moreover, more
than 10000 local school chill
dren receive instruction in
the museum every year.
Through museum loans to TV
stations 1t Is conservatively
estimated that more than
half a million persons bene-
fitted educationally In vir-
ginia and nearby States In
1861.
In addition to its school
services and It's exhibits,
which are many and varied,
the Valentine Museum serves
its city and State with its
gallery-lecture room, It's re-
search library with its extern
sive pictorial material illus
trating Richmond's history,
its art shows Of work Of local
artists, school children and
students, and its special pro-
grams, receptions and social
events.
Finally. let me emphasize
that the museum from its
inception, has been an edu-
cational institution rather
than q repository for relics,
objects, and memorabilia.

cause everyone knows who you are,
and there is no need to repeat
something which was said so well.
80 all can say at this moment,
Mr.. President, is that in the name
of our people first of all, in the
name of our government, in the
name of our Chief of State, we say
thank you to the United States.
1--WE can thank you. We say
thank you for a help which has
been efficacious, spontaneous and
sincere. We thank your Admins
tration for it, Mr.. President, be-
cause we are quite sure, as I re-
peat it, that our efforts would have
been to no avail if it had not been
for the moral and material help
which we have received from you.
I'VE hope that this help will
continue. We say it in all frank
ness. We say, at the same time,
that our people as people which
understands reality will never for
get to say thank you to the Unit
ed States. 1t will not be like some
other peoples which are willing to
receive aid only to criticise later
those who are helping. Thank you,
Mr.. President.

glass and drink to the President of
the United States, and to the pros
perity of the American people.

PILGRIM BAPTIST

"A God For These Times" based
on jeremiah 2:2S was the subject
of the morning message ably de-
livered by DR.. Massey to a throng
of worshippers on Sunday, Febru-
airy 4, 1862. In his Introductory re-
marks the minister pointed out
that Jesus was misunderstood; He
was to good for the world. He
made the world see itself as it was
and this was disturbing. Because
we don't want to be disturbed, we
have never ceased the crucifixion.
DR.. Massey told the worshippers
that a mans real God was any
thing to which he put his central
trust and devotion. All about us we
see evidences that people believe
in God but the trouble comes with
service. Belief without service is
an empty void of depth feeling. We
believe, yes, but we service our
idol Gods.
The minister continued that
there are many forms these idol
Gods take such as drunkenness,
organizations, covertedness and
the like. However, jeremiah says
the Gods we create will not stand
the test; only the God who created
us will never fail the test of our
times. We give allegiance in the
form of lip service. But genuine
God experience arises out of real
need an ordeal we have faced.
When these trials or turmoils have
entered our lives, only those who
steadfastly seek God; the God of
Isaac, jeremiah and Jacob, only
those who diligently seek Him will
come to know Him.
Who will be our God to lead us
through these times, Will it be our
small Gods that we make and ask
to cooperate with us or will 1t be
the God that Jesus made known
unto us, the living God who sacri-
feed His Son that we might have
eternal life?
The ordinance of communion was
observed Registered guests includ-
ed Mr.. Theodore Stanley and Miss
Maudine Young. Music was pro-
vided by the Gospel Chorus, Choral
Group and Senior Choir under dir
ection of Mesdames Galloway, and
Taylor and Mr.. A. Richmond re-
spectively. Miss H. Murray, Direc-
tor of Christian Education, rem
dered a solo.

es from the topic: "A Man For
These Times"

Friendship" welcomes you at all

A large crowd was in attendance
on Sunday morning, Feb. 4, to
partake of the Holy Communion.
which was administered by Rev.
Lowell Johnson, assisted by Rev.
Noah Smith, Evangelist Florence
Daniels, and the little altar boys.
Joel and Jeffrey Wade.
The subject Of the message was
why Commune ?" and the found
alton was from st. John 3:16, For
God so loved the world that he
gave his only begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth in him should
not perish but have everlasting
life.
The theme was Giving Rev.
johnson opened his message BY
stating the Christians life is one
who gives, gives, gives, but to re-
ceiVe one must give to thrive, one
example is as a bank takes, in
money it must loan out money to
live and grow.
The speaker further stated He
who has no compassion on anyone
but himself is dead, and if ones
world revolves around ones self
your life is dead.
In conclusion the pastor admon-
ished the listeners to beware to
whom you give your heart, and to
what you give your heart for it
may be broken. He went on to say
that God is living God, because
he is a giving God, and he who has
not given his life to Jesus has not
entered into the stream of living.
