Phone 4-2371 Surgeons Find Test io Tell Of Blood Clots New Chemical Possibly Can Head Off Danger By Frank Carer AP Sei.nc. Writer NEW ORLEANS UPh-A team of Tulane University surgeons Thursday suggested the possibility of heading off potentially-latal blood clots by means of a "rela tively simple" laboratory test. They said the test offered promise of predicting, with a great deal cf certainty, which patients there if some hope that the administration of a chemical that is naturally present in blood may help prevent the formation of clots. CIoU Dangerous (Clots are dangerous for , two reasons. If they get big enough, thev can Drovide a blocking dam in a blood vessel, thus impeding the flow of blood, the body's river of life. And sometimes a big clot breakes loose in the blood stream. If it reaches a vital area, like the lung, it can cause death.) The Tulane surgeons also said that there's been an Increase in the number of cases of, and deaths from, blood clots of the veins in recent years. Doctors Alton Ochsner, Michael E. Debakey and Paul T. DeCamp made the report to the 13th Con gress ot the International Society of Surgery. They gave this background to explain their suggestion concern ing a laboratory test that might detect the likelihood of clot for mation: They said studies had suggested that clotting in blood vessels may be due to a disbalance between blood substances that tend to make blood coagulate and those that tend to keep it fluid. . Chemical Told The surgeons further related their studies had indicated that apparently a chemical called "alpha tocopherol phosphate"- normal constituent of blood is at least one of the factors respon sible for 'preventing clot formation. This chemical, they said, could be given by mouth to patients be lieved likely to have a clot. Army Engineers Defend Columbia Dam System ASTORIA (AP) Army Engineers who construct the Columbia River dams are at tempting to assure the fishing industry the region can have both salmon and hydro-power development. ... . . , , L , Earlier, spokesmen for the fish industries and fish commissions of Washington and Ore- con warned that more dams will doom the Columbia salmon runs. They added that the P . i a ul!4.i; Un T mi, a, frill, rwKi Q Ti-iViiitot-ioe f it l i-vear szu million oroeram aimea at, renaom ibuiik me uiiiiuiu vwum.su.-o spawning grounds was ueiimu schedule and also inadequate. CoL William WhiDDle. Walla Walla district engineer, said the engineers expect to spent SH mil lion on fishways at McNary Dam. Referring to dams projected for the Snake. Whipple said large sums would not be spent for fish protection if "we didn't believe we could maintain those runs." This was in response to the fishermen's claim that the runs could not be saved in the Suake if the dams are built. Dizzy Spending Speeds Nation Into Red Year WASHINGTON U.R The 15th week of the new fiscal year ends Thursday with gov ernment spending at a dizzy rate which assures a whopping deficit. Government has cost the tax payers more than $12 billion'in the past 15 weeks. The treasury is about $2 billion in the red for the fiscal year so far, de spite the labor of taxpayers who are paying a greater sum into the treasury in this fiscal year than in the corresponding pe riod a year ago. The startling and significant fact emerging from the treas ury's daily statement of its operations is not the big deficit figure, however. The block bus ter is the fact that expendi tures so far in this fiscal year already are about $2,500,000,000 greater than for the correspond ing period in 1848.

Police Question Known Gambler LOS ANGELES (U.R) Police Thursday questioned a well known Las Vegas gambler about the mysterious disappearance of Showgirl Jean Spangler and Socialite Mimi Boomhower. Thomas E. (Vegas Tom) Evans, 49-year-old club operator, was ar rested on a Hollywood street cor ner Wednesday night on suspicion of robbery. Police Capt. Jack Donahoe said he would be ques tioned about both women. No Evidence We have no evidence linking him with either1 case," Donahoe said. "But he gets around and we'd like to hear what he has to say." Miss Spankler, beautiful 27- year-old 'film and television act' ress, left home last Friday night and has not been seen since. Detectives continued their search for a "Kirk" and "Dr. Scott" men tioned in a hastily-scrawled note found in Miss Spangler's purse. They questioned Film Star Kirk Douglas, but he could not at first recall ever meeting the pretty divorcee. Finally he remembered having talked to her briefly when she worked as an extra on one of his pictures, but he denied taking her out or even knowing her name, Mother Arrives Mrs. Florence Spangler, mother ot the missing actress, arrived here after a visit to Kentucky and said she feared her daughter had been slain. "She must have been taken away, the mother sobbed. "Some thing horrible must have hap pened to her. If she were alive, she would have telephoned me." Mrs. Spangler said her daughter was "very careful about her friends" and would not have gone out with a stranger. 'She could only have gone with someone she knew very well," the mother declared. Cross Cow with Buffalo To Get 'Brahmolo' . BELLE FOURCHE, S. D. U.PJ Ranchers Pete Rqsander, Marion Wilson and Hank Thompson be lieve they have started a new strain of cattle which Will be as hardy as the buffalo and as tasty as choice beet. It's a "brahmolo," a cross be tween a brahma cow and a buf falo bull. It looks like a regular calf ex cept for fur instead of hair, and its grunt and lope are bison-like. The big question is whether the) "brahmolos" will reproduce. S. J. Hutchinson, assistant re gional director of the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service, said delay in congressional appropriations had slowed the Lower Columbia project He said only $2,170,000 has been approved by the Bad get Bureau. He admitted the work is behind schedule. The subject was thrashed out before a Columbia Basin inter agency committee hearing on the fisheries topic, U. S. Power Commissioner Lesher S. Wing, San Francisco, said the government "probably can authorize" the controversial Cowlitz and Deschutes Rivers dams. Wing said the commission has not yet ruled on whether the federal agency has jurisdiction. The Cowlitz Dam, sought by the city of Tacoma, was refused by the last Washington Legislature. The Deschutes Dam is a private Hydro-power proposal. The fisher men are opposed to both, claiming the dams would block Lower Co lumbia spawning tributaries. Washington State Fisheries Dl rector Alvin Anderson suggested the government go ahead with existing dams but postpone work on those not already underway. He was opposed to the four Lower Snake River dams, the Priest Rapids, John Day and The Dalles dams. He recom mended completion of the Foster Creek dam and the Hell's Canyon dam. Col. Whipple said, however, that the Hell's Canyon dam cannot be built until the four Lower Snake hydro-dams are completed. He said the Hell's Canyon proposal is primarily a water storage project Oregon Fish Master Arnie Suo mela called the government's re habilitation plan "inadequate" to preserve the multi-million dollar industry.

They divided into eight divi sion sessions for discussion of var ious phases of the industry. The program is highlighted by a forest products meeting. Sub jects covered in discussions ranged over re-logging, utilization of low .grade Douglas fir and progress of production of pulp, chemical and board products. Arthur W. Priaulx, public rela tions representative of the West Coast Lumbermen's Assn., Port land, hailed the Keep Oregon Green and Keep Washington Green programs as outstanding forward strides in fire prevention. He cited the 1949 man-made fire record as proof of program gains. "Even in the face of one of the worst potential fire years in three decades," he said, "the number of man-caused blazes (In Oregon) is still only half what it was during the 1930V ' He said the record was made in the face of increased logging, ex panded slash areas and quad rupled forest travel.
