2 The Newi-Review, Roseburg, Ore. Thur., April 13, 1961 Safrole Described As Mild Inducer Of Cancer In Rats ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) Safrole, a chemical which long lent the flavor to beverages and food, was described today as a mild to weak cancer-causing agent in rats. The Food and Drug Administra tion banned the chemical last Dec. 1 from such dietary items, among them root beer and sar saparilla. Most bottlers, it said, had already discontinued its use. Today's reports to the Federa tion of American Societies for Ex perimental Biology were believed to be the first to a general sci entific meeting on safrolc's can cer effects. One group of rals, fed safrole at a ratio of 5,000 parts per mil lion in their diet for two years, showed a significant increase of cancer of the liver, food and drug administration researchers said. In the safrole-treated group there were 14 malignant and 5 benign tumors, said Drs. Eleanor I.. Long, Walter II. Hansen and Arthur A. Nelson. Jn a summary of their report, they concluded that safrole was a low-grade cancer-causing agent in rat livers. Dr. Freddy Homburgcr, presi dent of Bio-Research Institute of Cambridge, Mass., also reporting on safrole, said in an interview that the chemical occurs natural ly in licorice and vanilla. He fed safrole at higher con centrations to a different strain of rats for periods up to 370 days. In contrast to certain dyes once used as food colorings, safrole was a weak and slowly acting cancer-causing agent in the liver, he said. He found that safrole had an increased cancer-causing effect when the rats were on a protein and riboflavin rich diet. If you accept, he said, that tumors found in the rat livers were malignant, then safrole is a mild cancer-causing agent in rat liver. Senate Approval Expected For New Power Officials WASHINGTON (AP) Some Republican senators made clear Wednesday they have more ques tions for Joseph C. Swidler, Presi dent Kennedy s choice lor cnair man of the Federal Power Com mission. There were indications, howev er, that Swidler, a Nashville, Tenn., attorney, and another Dem ocrat nominated for the commis sion, Howard Morgan of Oregon, will win approval by the Senate Commerce Committee. ( Acting committee chairman John 0. Pastorc, D-KI., told a re porter he thinks the approval will he forthcoming. A republican source said he agreed, even though he said some GOP senators strongly disagree with what they consider the public power sym pathies of Swidler. Sen. Andrew F. Schocppcl, Ik Kan., said he and other senators in his party want to question Swidler further. Judge Postpones Holzapfel Sentence WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) Sentencing of Floyd A. Holzapfel, confessed killer, was postponed Indefinitely this week at the request of his attorneys. Ralph Mabie and William Pru IH told Circuit Judge Russell O. Morrow they wanted to hear testi mony by Ross Anderson, assistant director of the Stnto Sheriffs Bu reau, before deciding the fate of Holzapfel. Anderson entered a hospital Sunday with pneumonia. The atlorneys declined to say why they wanted Anderson to ap pear. Apparently, it would be to show that Holzapfel cooperated in solving the ChilUngworln mystery. The judge continued the case until Anderson is able to testify. Holzapfel has confessed he took Circuit Judge and Mrs. C. E. Chillingworth from their homo ,and threw Uiem into the Atlantic Ocean off Palm Beach. Their bodies wero never found. He said he did it for Joseph A. Peel Jr., 37, former citv judge of West Palm Beach and his 50-50 partner in protection and bolila (numbers) rackets. Peel was convicted March 30 on a charge that he ordered Holzap fel and Bobby Lincoln, a Negro bootlegger, to kill Chillingworth because he feared the judge was about to expose the rackets. The jury recommended Peel to the mercy of the court and thus saved him from a death penalty. Circuit Judge D. C. Smith has scheduled April 26 for the delivery nf an automatic sentence of life imprisonment. Brazilian Missionary To Visit At Glendale The Rev. Jnmes Buyers, direc tor of (he Institute Samuel Graham at Jatai, in the far interior of Bra zil, will speak at the Glendale Oli vet Presbyterian Church Sunday evening. The service will be preceded by a 5:30 p.m. fellowship polluck din ner in the church social rooms. The Rev. Mr. Buyers, a native of Kentucky, was appointed to the Brazilian field in 191'J by the Board of Foreign Missions of the Presbv terial Church, I SA. Before going to Jatai, he did evangelistic work in the North Minas field, covering a parish about the size of the state of Pennsylvania in which there were six organized churches and many preaching points. He travel ed by mission airplane between the various stations. Much of his time there was spent in training Brazilian evangelists and in finding and preparing promiMiig candi dates. He also led intensive Bible and leadership training classes and supervised church renovation and construction work in many parts of his field. One of his last services in Montes Clares was that of secur ing property for a new evangelic al primary school.

KUStAM PRODUCTS 'r"Trr FAKAWN, WWJntSfT But Pastore said Swidler and Morgan gave Republicans highly satisfactory answers at Tuesday's opening hearing on the public vs. private power issue. Both nominees said they thought neither side should be a monopoly. Pastore said all ho has heard so far reinforces his support for Mor gan and Swidler. Both generally were lauded or treated in friendly fashion by Democrats. Swidler has been associated with public power, as he put it himself Tuesday, for most of his adult life. For more than 20 years he was general counsel of the Ten nessee Valley Authority. Early in the questioning, Sen. Hugh Scott, U-Pa., expressed in terest in why Swidler resigned that job in 1957. Swidler said he was asked to quit bv Herbert I). Vogel, chairman of TVA's board of directors. Even with Senate confirmation, Swidler may have another prob lem before taking his place on the Power Commission. Kennedy wants Swidler to be chairman, but the present chair man, Jerome K. Kuykcndall, has given no indication lie will relin quish the post. The White House hopes Kuykcn dall, whose term runs until June of 10G2, will stay on as a com missioner.
