Fishermen Aid
Heart Studies
NH Probes Role
Of CholesteroI
By the Associated Press


Some Chesapeake Bay fish
ermen, giving blood samples
almost while they fished, have
co-operated in a research prof.
ect which may provide new data
about heart disease.
This was reported yesterday
by scientists of the National
Institutes of Health in describ-
ing a rare hereditary disorder
characterized by such things
as enlarged, oddly colored ton
SilS.
Called "Tangier disease" be-
cause it was first noted in two
children living on Tangier Is
land in Chesapeake Bay, the
ailment is also characterized
by a low content of choleSterol
in the blood.
CholeSterol is a fat-like sub
stance suspected by many SCI
entiStS to play a role in causing
atheroScleroSis-the narrowing
of arteries, which in turn is
suspected of being a major
cause of heart attacks. How
ever, some scientists say there
is no proof that abnormally
high cholesterol is linked with
human atheroScleroSiS.
Role of ChOleSterOI
Officials at. the NH told a
reporter in reply to questions
that studies in Tangier disease
conceivably could contribute to
knowledge of the role played
by choleSterol in the human
body and thus help settle the
controversy regarding it's role,
if any, in causing heart disease.
Chesapeake Bay fishermen
got into the research in this
way:
Following chance discovery
of the ailment in a 5-year-old
Tangier Island boy more than
a year ago, NTH set out to get
blood samples from among the
islands 900 residents.
Almost all the men on the
island are fishermen. many of
whom donated blood samples
while on their boats. They
also provided ferry service to
aid in collections from inhapi-
tants of nearby islands, an
agency report said. Tangier is
a relatively inaccessible island.
Very Large Tonsils
Discovery of the ailment
came this way:
The 5-year-old boy, whose
name was not given in the re-
port, had undergone a routine
tonsillectomy. His tonsilS
proved to be tremendously en-
larged and reddish-orange in
color.
The tonsils were sent to the
Armed Forces Institute of
Pathology in Washington where
they were termed unique.
Later, the boy underwent spe-
cial studies. He was other
wise in excellent health.
Subsequently, Institute doc
tors found that the boys older
sister had the same abnormal
ity, but she, too. was other
wise in robust health.
The scientists said discovery
Of the disease gives a unique
opportunity for studying pre-
viouSly inaccessible factors af-
fecting the transport and stor-
age of cholesterol and other
fat-like substances in the body.
Until now, most such studies
have been limited to animal
research.

Inquiry Is Proposed
In Loan O perations
Maryland House to Be Asked

BY ROBERT GRUENBERG

This promised yesterday by Delegate Carlton R. Sickes

IlOIl VI receivers Tor TWO closed
savings and loan firms.
Receivers ASsaiIed
Mrs. Margaret w. Carpenter,
secretary of the committee,
and Ray V. Murphy, treasurer,
said receivers are being named
whose primary qualifications
appear to be a personal rela-
tlonshlp with Gov. Tawes." Mr..
Hume has made similar state
mentS.
Mrs. Carpenter and Mr.. Mur-
ply named Receivers Saul I,
Stern, a Silver Spring furni-
ture executive, and Earl Nash, a
retired telephone company en-
pIoye, as closely identified DO
lltlcally and personally with the
Governor"
Receivers, they said, are paid
from remaining assets of the
association before shareholders
may recover anything.
If they must now inyolun-
tarlly pay someone else from
what remains of their life say
ingS, they are at least entitled
to the best qualified individuals
available"
impossible, Ridiculous"
Mrs. Ann Brown of Garrett
Park, acting chairman of the
committee and pro-TaWeS,
called the statement the most
amazing, impossible, ridiculous
statement l ever heard"
The appointments of receiv-
erS were made, not by Gov.
TaWeS, she said, but by Re-
publican and Democratic judges.
If they (Mrs. Carpenter and
Mr.. Murphy have any reason
to believe the receivers should
be investigated they should
make their protests to the
judges" she said.
4. In Prince Georges County
L. Harold Sothoron, chairman
of the county's Democratic
State Central Committee, de-
Tended the Governors course
adding, Il don't think the criti-
cism the Governor is getting
now will split the party"
S. Don R. Kendall, president
of the Maryland Federation of
Young Republicans, repeated
his suggestion that the General
Assembly look into the savings
and loan story with accent on
such matters as reports of cash
offers being made by savings
and loan interests during the
hectic legislative days last year
when the new law was being
passed, the efforts made to sus-
pend operation of the law for 18
months by requiring a referen-
dunn on the measure, and the
relationships between various
persons in the savings and loan
industry.
Seek Public Confidence
A joint statement issued yes
terday by Attorney General
Thomas B. Finan and Albert
w. Ward, director of the De.
partment of Taxation and AS
SeSsmentS, said action against
the various associations will
restore public confidence in the
industry.
THE removal Of these
elements which endeaVor to
capitalize for their own per-
sonal gain on the good repu-
tation which Maryland savings
and loan institutions have en-
joyed for many decades will
strengthen the industry as a
whole" the statement said.
The two officials said the
improper practices thus far
revealed "are primarily those
of organizations which have
been operated from persons
from out Of State, who have
come into Maryland with large
promotional schemes to attract
savings deposits by mail with
the offer Of eXtravagant gifts,
advertising gimmicks, etc.

there is no basis for lack of
confidence in the vast majority
of the Maryland-owned, oper-
ated and controlled associa-
tionS :"

said he was appalled, and dis
gusted" at the current "reve-
lationS" in the savings and
loan story.
He plans to ask for the in
vestigation, known as a grand
inquest" by the Maryland
House of Delegates, when the
legislature convenes February
Z, he said yesterday.
To do this, he will invoke
a seldom used section of the
Maryland constitution, author
izing the House to sit as an in
veStigating committee of the
whole.
Trained Investigators
Il shall also ask the United
States Attorney for the District
of Maryland to call upon the
Omitted States) Attorney Gen.
eral to provide sufficient
trained investigatory and legal
staff to assist in its conduct"
he added.
The Maryland political pot
was boiling yesterday on the
savings and loan issue.
PresS-release attacks and
counter-attacks were shoWercd
on newspaper offices. Here
were some:
l. David Hume. former treas
urer of the Democratic Party
and now a candidate for the
party's gubernatorial nominal
ton, said of Gov. Tawes.
I'm his panic to avoid the
truth surrounding the dis
aster in savings and loan, it
is distressing to find Gov. Tawes
trying desperately to avoid full
investigation"
Lobbying Probe Asked
This was a reference to the
governors opposition last week
to proposals by Mr.. Hume and
others for an investigation of
reports of pressure, underhand
lobbying and other savings and
loan revelations.
The Associated Press reported
that Gov. TaweS said yesterday,
however, that he would well
come such a probe as that
proposed by Mr.. Sickles so
long as it's for good purposes
and is not a witch hunt He
pledged full cooperation of his
office if the Legislature chooses
to make the investigation.
2. George P. Mahoney, anoth-
er Democratic candidate for the
gubernatorial nomination, said
he was still awaiting "a salts
factory answer by the Governor
to one question:
"Why did he veto the Ty-
dings savings and loan bill in
the spring of 1862"
Tydings Bill Vetoed
The bill, introduced by Dele
gate Joseph Tydings, now
United States Attorney in Bal
timore, was vetoed by Gov.
Tawes who said it would be in
effective.
Mr.. Mahoney said he is dis
satisfied with that answer. He
said a satisfactory answer or
an admission that he (Gov.
TaweS) has committed a most
serious blunder."
3. In Montgomery County,
Democrats were also scrapping
among themselves with savings
and loan as a central issue.

I meet the girl 1t may not
be a person you're madly in

right for marriage"
ALOt to Discuss
