Huggins at the annual meeting of the American Associa- tion for Cancer Research. Por many years a strenuous effort has heen made to find a simple and consist- “pnt teat for cancer. The fact that most eases, if detected early enough, can be elited, makes the importance of the dis- covery more significant. If subsequent findings prove that a simple test has real- ly been found, the discovery will be one of the great landmarks, not only in the fight against cancer, but in the history of the battle against disease. The experimental work was carried an hy Professor Huggins, in collaboration with Dr. Gerald M. Miller and Dr. Elwood -R. Jensen, under a grant from the Ameri- can Cancer fieciety. These gentlemen wave generays credit te the work of a large number of investigators in this country and in Rurope who laid the foun- dation for their own researches, While the test has been very success- ful in disgovering the early incidence of caneer, it does nat locate the cancer in the body, Nor does it determine the type of cancer. These matters will remain in the field of the examining physician, who will need the assistance of the patient to localige the malignant growth so that it can be eradicated. The human race has its problems, in- cluding you and me. There are bills pending in the House and Senate of the United States which if enacted into laws would hit the publishers of fram 8,000 to 5,000 circulation, below the belt. In Florida, too, house bill 38 would cause @ hardship on the smaller pewspa- pera, and in some cases would remove all profit from the publication of legal ads, FREE TO ACT —— ; Key Westers know that labor unions are a blessing te the laboring man, but Key Westers know also that unionism, in all parts of the country, is. riddled with racketeers. For that reason, The Citizen believes that a vast majority of Key Westers ap- plaud the Southern Democrats in the na- tien’s House of Representatives in joining Republicans to save the Taft-Hartley Law from annihilation, The Republiean-Democratic bloc, on Tuesday night, saved most of the Taft- Hartley aet in approving the Wood bill by a vete of 217 to 203. It was a resounding setback for President Truman who had recommended a labor measure that would have been similar to the Wagner Aet that coddled labor in New Deal days. Speaker 8am Rayburn, aware that the President's drive for outright repeal of the Taft-Hartley Aet was doomed te defeat, pleaded for the adoption of a compromise measure, put forth by Democratic leaders in the House, But his pleas were in vain, He was unable to dent the Republican- Democratic ¢aalition, Labor leaders, of the John L. Lewis type, wielded teo much power under the Wagner law, They could de much as they pleased and. Lewis demonstrated the ex- tent that labor could go to in flaunting the rights of the American people, Another commendable thing in the | Taft-Hartley law isto guarantee every American the right to work without cam- pulsion to pay for that right by joining a labor union. If a laborer wishes to join a union, nobody should attempt to dissuade him; if he does not want to join, nobody should compel him to join. Americanism guarantees a man to be his own free agent, and no bill should be- come a law that would curb that free- dom. * If youwant to improve yourself, as- sociate with those who are better than you.

It dates back to Austria’s long continued contre! of much of North Italy, the rest of the peninsyla being divided up into numer- ous petty states. The unification of Italy which was eventually completed in 1870 had Austria as its most tenacious opponent. Though Austrian rule was no more tyran- nical than that of the Bourbon kingdom of Naples, for instance, and in fact offered many of the benefits of good government, Austria was hated more than the local tyrants, The Italian poet, Silvio Pellico, a conspirator for Italian independence, wrote a moving account of his persecution, “My Prisons,’ which did much to fix the popular impression that Austria was Italy’s worst enemy. Curiously enough, as early as 1879 Austria and Italy became military allies, Germany being the third partner and the moving spirit. No good will went with the enforeed association, however, and in 1914 Italy declined to fight Austria against the Allies. Next year she joined France and Great Britain, and got asa reward the last remaining scraps of Italian territory still in Austrian possession. Now Austria is a tiny state, unable to tyvannize over anyone, Italy, toa, is en- feebled. To help each other remain inde- pendent, the two do well to make friends. peel eae eee Playing bridge is not only more thrill- ing than petty gambling, says Expert Ely Culbertson, but it may be a curve for it. But what could be worked as a cure for bridge. —Kansas City Star, ‘ PRESIDENTIAL PRANKS a Some of the metropolitan papers have been eriticiging the President for claiming that he “has reserve authority that he ean use whenever he may see the need to exercise it."

GEORGE SMATHERS | i I i When a new Congress first convenes as did the 81st Con- gress last January -' legislation’ must be introduced, referred to committees and hearings held. It is. therefore, only after the; committees have completed their work that the House as a whole | goes into action and considers the measures reported by the committees. In the nast few! weeks the House Committees have been rapidly reporting leg- } islation to the House so that we have been- exceedingly busy on the Floor each day in addi- meetings and office duty. tion to our regular committee Action on pending bills has been much faster in the House than in the Senate so far this, year. Only two major legislative bills (extension of rent control and extension of ECA) have pas- sed the Senate to date. Nine ap-; propriation bills which have passed the House are pending | in the Senate. The House is inj the middle of debating labor leg- islation and when it completes that, there are other matters of great importance which will immediately be up for conside- | ration. , Several months ago I discussed in this column a bill which had been jntroduced in the House which would establish a form system of justice in all the! armed services. At that time I} discussed the merits of the leg-/ islation and how it would im- | prove the court-martial proce- | dure now in effeet in each of the services. i The bill was referred to the i on or before th 949, ptherw House Armed Services Commit- t nd last week, after holding hearings six days a week for al- most five weeks, the Committee reported the bill favorably to the House. The proposal is officially eited as “Uniform Code of Military Justice” as it would be uniformly aplicable in all of its parts to the Army, the Navy, the Air Force, and the Coast Guard in time of war and peace, It covers both the substantive and the procedural law governing mili- tary justice, and its administra- tion in all of the armed forces of the United States. If adopted, it will supersede the Articles of War, the Articles for the Govern- ment of the Navy, and the Disci- plinary Laws of the Coast Guard, all of which are familiar terms to servicemen.
