hope for survival in a world fraught with fear."
i He spoke at the national CIO convention. s
Delegates gave the longest ovation of the convention to the Jurist
wno iracea me growrn oi roe wonas his, ana roe rise oi laoor.
Justice Douglas concluded his
talk with:
"Today labor, better roan any
other element in our society, can
weld the democrats of the world
. Into a group within its power to
1 guide western civilization, neither
to the right nor" to -the left, but
' down the broad middle Highway
I, to abundance' to security, and to
peace
. CIO President Philip Murray
' called the speech "history-mak-"
ing. He added, -it will ring
. throughout the land and its effect
will be felt everywhere.
Douglas told the delegates,
"these are fateful days for all peo
pie of the world. Powerful ideo
: logical forces are pitted against
each other. There is an increasing
" polarization to the left and to the
: right. But the great middle group
; In all nations are the democrats
Mirhty Contribution
"American labor can contribute
, mightily to the fusion of the var
, ious democrats groups of the world
into a harmonious whole. Ameri
can labor can teach class-conscious
groups the folly of class warfare.
' American labor can spread the
faith In the American way that
I builds a classless society without
J exploitation of any group.
Labor's rise in the last two gen
1 era t ions saved workers from "in
. dustrial serfdom," he said, and
added, "the human welfare state
f is the great political invention of
i the twentieth century,
He said "but while labor was
the prime promoter of the new
human welfare state, all groups in
society farmers, business and the
rofessions were its beneficiar
s." Earepe Labor Persecuted
He asserted that while Ameri
; can labor became free, European
,: labor was persecuted and became
1 suspicious of all outside their own
I class.
"Out of this arises the Impor-
tance of the fact that American la-
bor carries good credentials to
I western Europe. Doors tightly
; closed to all others may open at
Its knock. Words from American
I labor promise to find quick accep-
tance," Douglas continued.
"American labor can help Amer
ica understand that Europe under
the political management of social
' lsts is not a continent turning com
munist but a people struggling for
things that are precious to men
everywhere . .. we need them and
they need us. if totalitarianism is
not to rule the world.

laid off and some sugar refining
operations have been shut down in
Philadelphia.

Doctor Dies
From Polio,
Family Struck
PORTLAND, Nov. 24-,P)-The
polio death of a 38-year-old scien
tist and infantile paralysis cases
of his wife and son were under
investigation today.
Dr. Birdsey Renshaw, a Univer
sity of Oregon Medical School re
search scientist, succumbed to
polio last night. His wife is hospi
talized With polio; his son. Tom
my, 6, is recovering from polio;
and his 3-year-old son. Bruce, has
had an illness which might be a
sub-clinical (slight) case of polio.
Two Children who live in the
same Portland West Hills near the
Renshaws recently were stricken
with the disease.
Dr. Thomas L. Meadow. Citv
Health officer, said the bureau
was investigating to see whether
there was any common factor con
tributing to the polio attacks.
I feel it is a coincidence that
two families in the same neigh
borhood happened to get polio at
about the same time," he said,
however.
Questioning showed that the
two families used different sources
of milk, shop in different places,
and send their children to differ
ent schools.
Meadow said the Renshaws ap
parently contracted polio from
their son. It is not certain where
the children of the other family
contracted the disease.
Atomic Bomb
Said Treatment
"pVw T nnlrjmin
i --- w jlv iiivvlllld
By Howard W. Blakeslee
Associated Press Science Editor
NEW YORK. Nov. 24 -UP- The
atomic bomb in Nagasaki gave one
man a good treatment for his
leukemia. It did not. however.
cure himr
This healing effect of an atom
bomb is reported todar in the
American Journal of Sureerv bv
Dr. Austin M. Brues of the Uni
versity of Chicago.
'One of the professors of the
Nagasaki medical school," he
writes, "who was suffering from
chronic myeloid leukemia, and
had not been responding well to
radiation therapy, enjoyed pro
longed remission us a result - of
the radiation received at the time
of the blast.
Ths professor got a big "dose
of gamma rays from the flash of
the bomb, the same rays that
caused an estimated eight to 15
per cent of Japanese deaths, also
loss of hair for many people and
temporary sterility.
These gamma rays are exactly
the same as the X-rays which
the professor had been receiving
and which had failed to help his
leukemia.
The bomb rays, however, were
much more penetrating than most
X-rays or most radium gamma
rays. The professor was in the
Nagasaki medical college, which
was only a few hundred yards
from the point where the bomb
went off. He was close enough
so that out in the' open the rays
would have caused his death even
if concussion and burns failed to
kill him.
The building walls shielded him
from the full force of the bomb's
gamma rays, and at the same
time by sheer luck gave him just
the dosage which helped his leu
kemia. X-rays and gamma rays never
cure leukemia. The rays make a
patient feel better for varying
lengths of time, and the bomb did
this for the professor for an un
usually long time.

Newspapers reported recapture

Berlin Feared
PARIS, Nov. 24 - (fl) 4 Reliable
sources said tonight Dr.jJuan A.
Bramuglia of Argentina is making
an urgent appeal to the Big Four
powers against any moves that
might heighten tension lit Berlin.
Bramuglia is current president
of the Security council. Hi was re
ported anxious to guard against
failure (of the latest attempts of the
six "neutral" nations on the coun
cil to mediate for a lifting of the
Berlin blockade. I
The 'informants said .Bramuglia
was deeply concerned over recent
reports: of a ''deteriorating" situa
tion in Berlin! itself, and by grow
ing pessimism in western quarters
over chances :for a settlement.
He plans to meet again tomor
row with the five other neutrals-
China, jBelgium, Syria, Colombia
and Canada for a study of replies'
irom roe Dig powers xo a Question
naire on currency problems of Ber
lin. '
It is on the basis of these replies
that the six powers hope! to work
out a fomula i satisfactory to both
sides for lifting the blockade and
introducing Soviet currency for all
of Berlin. i
The three western powers agreed
today to! submit to neutrals of the
security council a secret British
French plan for Berlin currency
controls that was drafted more
than two months ago.
Gen. Lucius D. Clay, American
military governor in Germany, de
clined to sign the document last
September 7, when negotiations
were under way in Berlin on the
ground that the proposed control
mechanism was defective, French
sources said. :
