rX-Ray Telescope9 to Provide
Bright Image of Bodily Organs
By Altan TL. BUkeslee
Auoriated PrM Science Reporter
NEW YORK. May It -(V An "X-ray telescope" announced to
day promises to give doctors liying movies telling scores of things
about the human body that they" couldn't see before.
In effect it nearly brings sunlight into the human body. It can
make X-ray images on a fluofescent screen 500 times brighter than
they now are, Westinghouse research laboratories scientists said. It
ws developed by Dr. John W.
Coltman, 32-year-old physicist.
This tremendous brightnesa Is
the exciting development, because
it shows so much mora detail
about internal organs. Dr. W. Ed
ward Chamberlain. Philadelphia
physician who suggested the idea,
said it would make it far easier
to stop cancer and tuberculosis
quickly, to study the human heart
in action, and even to diagnose
kidney troubles early.
Aid for Cancer
He predicted the bright pictures
would make mass surveys for can
cer feasible, and that doctors ev
entually look inside every patient
in hospitals to help learn what's
wrong.
A kind of telescope tube does
the brightness trick It's a tele
scope in the sense mat it magni
fies brightness.
Speeds Up Electrons
Tne tube picks up the X-rays
after they pass through the body,
and turns them into light rays
and then into electrons inside the
tube. The electrons then are hurl
ed across the tube at a sp!ed .of
9.000 miles per second. They hit
a fluorescent screen, and hit so
hard that they make a much
brighter image.
At present. X-rays themselves
hit the screen being viewed by
the doctor. But the image is dim.
The image of the average human
abdomen as it now appears has
been estimated as J 0.000 times
dimmer than a piece of white pa
per viewed under a reading lamp.
Permit Cleee Week
Dr. Coltman said the new tube
would enable physicians to make
out objects separated by as little
as five - thousandths of an inch.
X-ray photographs show consid
erable detail, but hundreds are
needed to show the body organs
in action.
Coltman said it may be possible
to see images in three - dimen
sions. And the pictures are bright
enough to be transmitted on tele
vision, he said. Thus it would be
come technically possible for a
specialist to make a diagnosis by
long distance.

Milk Prices
Cut in Stores
Wins Support
PORTLAND. May l-(yp-J. L.
Sinner, former president of tha
Oregon Milk Distributors associa
tion, broke from association pol
icy today and declared approval
of allowing stores to reduce the
price of milk.
Sinner said he had come to
agree with the contention of a
chain of stores here that they
should be permitted to sell milk
one cent cheaper than milk de
livered to front door steps.
Portland distributors have
fought this, demanding stores not
be allowed to lower their price.
Attributing his resignation as
association president last Friday
to his desire to speak as a private
individual on the milk issue, Sin
ner said home delivery of milk
costs mora and consequently
should be at a higher price.
