Friday, July 23, 1954 THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Scientists Of Many Nations Attend Cancer Research Meet By ALTON L. BLAKESLEE SAO PAULO, Brazil w—Scien- tists from 54 nations on both sides of the Iron Curtain launched a new joint assault today against cancer, which kills someone in the world every 10 seconds. The nations include Russia, the United States, Britain, Korea, Po- land, Brazil, Chile, Greece, Hun- gary—in fact almost any country you can nanie. ists, ‘physicists, biologists and other scientists are conferring here and exchanging their latest knowl- edge to mobilize better answers to the death and suffering from cancer. Their meeting ground is the Sixth International Cancer Con- 8ress, which ovened todmy in this booming Brazilian metropolis. The congress last met in Paris in 1950. In the next week the delegates . Will listen to some 500 reports deal- ing with treatment, detection, new scientific research and public ed- ucation concerning cancer. They also will meet informally, seeking from or telting to other -— | surgical SYRONG ARM BRAND COFFEE Triumph Coffee Mill at ALL GROCERS EXCLUSIVE SHAMPO © So gentle, s° most gente «¢ FLUSHING OVERF ts away dirt 9 a girt can strain | means cleanef, white RE oRYIN' EXCLUSIVE spin Al Easie: action bl Nearly 1,000 physicians, chem- | thorough, it hand-shampoo and scum+s clothes.

The cancer congress was formal- |ly opened this morning by Dr. An- tonig Prudente, the congress pres- ident and head of the Brazilian | Cancer Institute. About three million persons over |the world fall victim to cancer annually, he said in his opening address. Dr. Prudente said new promises jfrom research in various fields of- fer great hope, and each new fact jlearned is potentially useful in solving the riddle. “T feel sure,” he said, “‘this con- gress, which brings together men of all races, religions and political creeds, shall fight for the same ideal”—the ultimate triumph over cancer. Prior to the opening session, Dr. (George T. Pack, of New York’s Memorial Hospital, told yesterday of a bold new operation to cure jcancer of the liver. In some cases he said, the whole right lobe of the liver—75 to 80 per cent of the or- gan—had been removed by new techniques. After such operations, Dr. Pack said, the left lobe regenerates and expands un- til the liver becomes nearly its original size. Six of these operations have been performed in the past two years, he said. The first patient to undergo the new surgery is liv- ing and well today.

HIGHLIGHTS WASHINGTON «# — Technically its chance for an endurance record is gone but the Senate doggedly argues atomic energy legislation into its third day. A 25-minute recess in the morn- ing darkness interrupts proceed- ings after 39 hours 35 minutes of constant debate. Oratory resumes after a brief prayer picking up the session where it left off. Republican Leader Knowland makes a drastic parliamentary move to curtail debate, but a vote on his effort apparently is stalled until Monday. In present circum- stances there are strong doubts it will succeed. Opponents of the ad- ministration-favored atomic meas- ure are rallied by success with amendment to permit Atomic En- ergy Commission to producé com- mercial power. HOUSING — Senate probers con- clude first phase of capital hear- ings on windfall profits from apart- ment construction with govern- ment-backed loans. They call in New Yorker who built two Wash- ington projects. Investigations will continue in other cities. FOREIGN AID — House Appro- Priations Committee starts work on how much the government ac- tually may spend abroad. Previous action has been to place a ceiling on the amount. President Eisen- hower wants 3% billions available. Senate awaits chance to vote on committee recommendation for lit- tle more than three billion. MCCARTHY — Senate Investiga- tions subcommittee prods Defense and Justice Department spokes- men to explain denial of security clearance to Thomas W. Lavenia, assistant counsel whose status is now pending. Sen. Flanders (R- Vt), meanwhile, says he will recite limited bill of particulars against Sen. McCarthy (R-Wis) next week to support censure resolution aimed at Wiseonsin senator.

The result! throws new light on Kremlin lead- ership itself. The pattern adopted by the sat- ellites, always obedient to Moscow, hints that there has been a quiet showdown inside the Kremlin. There is new evidence that Nikita S. Khrushchev, first secretary of the Soviet Communist party, wields | the real power, not Premier Georgi Malenkov. Moscow laid down the new pat-| tern last September, when the So-| viet regime appeared’ to have re- gained its balance after the violent | purge of Secret Police Chief Lay- renty Beria and his followers. Then Khrushchev became “first secre-; tary” of the Soviet party, a job| which, according to the Soviet | press, Malenkov voluntarilyy relin- quished. The party chairmanship is a job of great power. Stalin used it to make himself dictator. Until World War II, Stalin preferred to sep- | arate the jobs of general secretary | and Premier. The premiership be- | fore the war was held by V. M.| Molotov, certainly no rival of Stalin for dictatorship. | Soon after the Soviet change last September, Czechoslovakia’s Com- | munists adopted the same pattern. | Antonin Novotny gave up his gov-j ernment job and became Party | first secretary. He soon demon-| strated he was the real boss by delivering a sharp dressing down to the party rank-and-file. In Poland, Boleslaw Bierut, Premier since 1952, gave up the government job and devoted’ him- | self to being first party secretary. | Romania’s Reds fell into line} when Premier Gheorghe’ Gheor- | ghiu-dej resigned his other post— party secretary general — and Gheorghe Apostol became “first secretary.” Gheorghiu-dej re- mained Premier but said “hero worship” and “one-man leader- ship” had to go, just as the Rus- | sian leaders had said before him. | In Hungary, the man known as) “Old Potato Head,” Matyas Rak- Woman Lives On Fan’s Wrong Side CHICAGO (#—There are two sides to a fan, and. Mrs. Stella Wojciechowski, 61, says she lives on the wrong side of one. Mrs. Wojciechowski complained in Police Court yesterday that an air conditioning fan in her next- door-neighbor’s window blows hot air into her bedroom “so I’m warmer while he’s cooler.” Jadge Mason S. Sullivan issued a warrant charging the neighbor, M._ A. Kupsik, with disorderly conduct. Hold Your Fire! OMAHA (®#—Police Lt. Dominic Hannigan told this one: A lady telephoned him and said she wanted to settle an argument with a friend. Her question was: “If you come home and find a burglar in your house, can you shoot him in the back or do you ; have to wait until he turns around? My friend says shooting a burglar in the back is against the law.” The lieutenant’s answer was een your fire and call the po- ice.” EARTH SHOCKS FELT SANTIAGO, Chile — Strong earth shocks rocked Santiago, Ovaile and La Serena, Chile, early today.
