HONK KONG, July 7 (AP)
= An anti-Communist news
paper claimed today that more
than 5000 forced laborers in q
coal-producing area in China's
Northern Kwangtung Province
staged a revolt May 30.
The Chinese Language Truth

Gus laborers were killed and
more than 1000 arrested. 1t
said the rest took to the hills
along the Kwangtung Human
border.
The paper said the report
came from an escapee from
Red China, Chen TSe-jen, who
took part in the revolt.
Several anti Communist
Hong Kong papers have re-
ported a series of similar Incl
dents in Kwangtung and other

The Truth Daily said the re-
volt was touched off by word
that 5000 forced laborers would
be transferred to a camp in
sparsely populated Tsinghai

Reading Of Bible
In School Upheld
In Florida Court

TALLAHASSEE, Fla, June 7
(AP).-The Florida Supreme
Court has upheld the right of
Florida schools to have daily
Bible reading and recitation of
the Lords Prayer.
In a strongly worded unani-
nous decision, the court said
that a State law requiring
Bible readings did not violate
constitutional provisions for
separation of church and state
The decision is expected to
be appealed to the United
States Supreme Court.
The case originated in Miami
where a group of composed
Jews, a Unitarian and an
agnostic challenged the Dade
County schools practice OF
holding daily Bible readings,
with provision for excusing
children whose parents object.
ITO say that the vast ma
jority of students are to be
foreclosed of the privilege of
living a few moments each day
with the words of the Bible,
the greatest of all literature
because a minority might
suffer some imagined and
nebulous confusion, is to ap-
.proach the ridiculous" the
court said.

Furthermore, Chairman Hol-

on information it seeks.
The blunt admonition came
as an atomic energy subcom-

DR.. Terry on a radiation re-
port by PHS Tuesday after
noon. The committee had been
trying for several weeks to get
a look at the report, which was

Representative Price, Demo-

the PHS chief in a sharply

the committee with a frankly
conciliatory air and said he was
truly sorry" that release OF
the report had been interpreted
as a slight or a discourtesy.

''It is no longer relevant to

but the chemical nature of the
genes is the same; their re-
sponses to radiation are of the
same kind. and they evoke
their effects in the same way,
by controlling the synthesis
of the proteins made in the
cells.
Thus, when ionizing radia-
ton strikes the DINA molecules
of a cell, it can be demon
strated to have a comparable
action in all cases. It fractures
and disrupts the genes. usually
with destructive effects; and
it causes the chromosomes to

BY WILLIAM HINES
star Science Writer

A world renowned expert on
genetics has sounded q new
note of warning about the seri-
business of radiation as q
hazard to future generations.
The lessons learned from
longtime study of the fruit fly
are valid for humans, DR.. H.
Bentley Glass of Johns Hop
kins University told a Joint
Congressional Atomic Energy
subcommittee. And the lessons,
he emphasized, reinforce the
view that any amount of radio
activity. however small. is bad
from a genetic standpoint.
In addition, DR.. Glass said,
new studies have revealed
radiation as a major cause OF
mongoloid idiocy as well as a
cause of abnormal sexual
changes that result in sterility
New studies of the genetic
hazards of radiation seem to
cancel out other findings that
tended to depict radiation as
not quite so serious a matter
as it had been regarded, he
added.
The geneticist pointed out
that very low doses and dose
rates of radiation yield notice
able results only when extreme
ly large populations are studied
The fruit fly, droSophila mela-
nogaster. has been used in
mutation studies for more than
As years because this species
can be handled in large num-
bers. This has drawn the fire.
quent comment that findings
on flies cannot be extrapolated
to humans, which are a differ
ent kind of animal.
DR.. Glass took issue with this
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1962-06-07

Glass put ito the
normal human 30-year dose
from background radiation.
This experiment, called
''Megafly," yielded statistically
significant results, he said.
"One is entitled to conclude
that even doses Of five TO-
entgens produce mutations at q
frequency falling right on the
linearly proportional dosage
curve.
There is no sign Of a thresh-
old or Of diminishing effective
ness"
Atom-bomb survivors in the
Japanese cities Of Hiroshima
and Nagasaki have been studied
for some hint Of genetic change
in their offspring as a result of
the 1945 explosions, DR.. Glass
said,
Prom the nature Of sex de-
termination in the human
species it is to be expected that
an irradiated male parent will
on the average produce fewer
daughters than sons, while an
irradiated female parent will
on the average produce fewer
sons than daughters" he told
the committee.
Precisely these deviations in
the sex ratio have indeed been
found. indicating that radi-
ation-induced mutations have
slightly but significantly altered
the prenatal viability Of the
young"
British and French studies
have shown, DR.. Glass said,
that most cases Of 'mongoloid
idiocy' are attributable to the
presence in the cells Of an ex-
ira chromoSome o.. among the
% pairs of human chrome
Somes."
