Tubercular Vets Walk Away From Hospitalization WASHINGTON UP) -Two Vet erans' administration reports dis close that up to 6.000 tubercular war veterans a year walk out on their hospitalization. The great majority of the "Run aways" are in far advneed stages of the disease, and thus represent a considerable potential menace to the public, the reports said. Veterans Administrator Carl R. Gray Jr., in his annual report to Congress said that 5.7 percent of the 547,697 patients' dispositions from veterans hospitals during the 1948-49 fiscal year were irregualr discharges walkouts and that of the latter, one-fifth were tubercu losis patients. He said the runaways accounted for 27 percent of the tuberculosis patients' departures from VA hos pitals during the year. - At the same time, the agency For ops' on Dralnboarda Sea Phil Durnam Lino'ium Laying and Venetian Blinds 920 S.

Tollen of the VA medicine department Tollen's report included a sum mary of interviews with 400 of the 6,000 tubercular patients who went AWOL from VA hospitals between July, 1946, and June, 1947. Tollen said that almost one-halt the veterans studied had far ad vanced tuberculosis and another one-third were moderately advanc edso that more than two-thirds had active tuberculosis. He said that an apparent rea son for this was the feeling of despair and hopelessness of many such veterans. Most of the veterans interview ed and manyof their doctors a greed that many walkouts would be prevented with intensiiied social case work with the veteran and his family. TOP POSITION E. V.

This single finding does not yet form sufficient basis for a specific test, said Dr. John W. Gofman, who headed the research team, but it may point the way toward one. The report will be published in the Journal of Science. Doctors have no way now of tell, Ing definitely in advance whether a patient is destined to have arte rial hardening. Given advance warning, doctors might be able to combat the dis ease more effectively, Or, a blood test might eventually yield infor mation on the cause, and in turn give medical science more chances to produce an effective treatment or even a cure. The research team examined more than 600 humans. In the blood of women under 40 the three suspicious kinds of mole cules were either scarce or entire ly absent. In men under 40 they were found in about every third individual. About half the people over 40 years old had them. They were found in large num bers in diabetics, in whom arter ial disease is common. In the 101 coronary patients the -concentration was relatively high. All the people except the coro nary patients and the diabetics were in ordinary health. The ex tent to which they harbored these suspicious molecules agreed close ly with the statistics which show arterial disease by sex and age groups. This is the tipoff that the discovery may lead to a blood test. Commerce Dept. Defends Official WASHINGTON, -UP- The Com merce department Saturday de fended the loyalty of trade official Michael fc. Lee, described by Sen ator Malone (R-Nev.) as the man Chinese nationalists blame for de laying shipments to their troops. Malone demanded a Congression al investigation of Lee's loyalty. He introduced a resolution to au'h orize the senate commerce com mittee to undertake the probe Lee is director of the far east division of the department's office of international trade. Malone's attack brought a prompt response from Loring K. Macy, acting director of the trade office. i He said in a statement that Lee had "never made any decision with reference to shipments" to China, adding that the department has no objections to an investiga tion. Malone told the Senate that Lee was a Manchurian-born Russian whose U. S. citizenship application was rejected three times. Citizen ship was granted on the fourth try, Malone said, after Lee chang ed his real name of Ephraim Zi novi Ltberman and married an American. The Commerce department said Malone's charges are old ones which have been "thoroughly in vestigated by a loyalty board ' Lee was not available for com ment FLOOR SANDING and FINISHING Estimates Phone 1573 R Leslie Pfaff 320 Ward St. anuaican XU?10US I r-; --r "Get through this scene with only one shooting ond I'll take you out for dinner ... to the RAINBOW CAFE." n E)LDE DIL. - L-G3C2 nu 2 On i warm, Indian summer day fust 21 years ago, the usual pre-bell hubbub had subsided In about 60 schools up and down the Pacific Coast, and pupils In many of the classrooms settled down to witness tome thing new in tchool work a music appreciation course by radio, called the "Standard School Bmdcast.'
