British Wrath
Spares BBC
LONDON W) The apposition Labor party and some British
newspapers lashed the Conservative government and the security
tervices Wednesday lor letting former trench Premier Georges
Bidault slip in and out of England.
Bidault, hunted by France as chief of the anti-De Gaulle ter
rorist organization, appeared Monday on a taped television pro
gram on the British broadcasting Corp. The government said
Tuesday be apparently had left Britain.
De Gaulle's officials, who tightly control the French govern
ment radio and television service, implied that Prime Minister
I Harold Macmi
Soviet Troop
Withdrawal
Questioned
MIAMI IUPD A Cuban refugee
said Tuesday' he believes the
Russians are trying to fool the
United States by removing their
troops from Cuba in daytime
and bringing them back under
cover of darkness.
The man, Jose A. Farina, was
one of 98 new exiles from Cuba
who arrived here Tuesday
aboard a Red Cross chartered
plane.
Asked if he had seen Soviet
troops leaving Cuba, Farina in
dicated he had, but said he be
lieved "they're just taking them
out in the daytime from Havana
and bringing them back at night
at the other end of the island."
Most of the exiles told sub
stantially the same story of
mounting deprivation and hard
ships in Cuba except for Dr.
Julian F. Baldor, who said
"things are not very bad in
Cuba."
"There are no food shortages,
and I've never seen anybody
hungry, despite rationing," said
Baldor, an employe of the Cuban
Department of Health.
What he said not only dif
fered from what the other exiles
aboard Tuesday's eighth refugee
flight from Havana said, but
also from the reports ot hun
dreds of other Cubans who have
come here by plane and boat.
Antonio Infante, 48, ot the
town of Victoria de las Tunas in
Oriento Province, told the most
typical story Tuesday.
The problem of finding fool
wear in Cuba is so bad, Infante
aid, that robbers take a victim's
shoes and nothing else. "Your
ahoes or your life," is their cry,
Infante said.
an s government
should have kept the interview
from being aired..
British wrath spared the vir
tually independent BBC and con
centratcd on the security serv
ices, already under heavy fire
because three Soviet spies have
turned up in government serv
ice in the past 19 months.
Laborites to Confer
The Labor shadow cabinet
called a special meeting tonight
to draft a demand for an un
equivocal statement by the gov
ernment on its part in the affair.
The Laborites want to know
exactly how Bidault slipped into
Britain under the noses of se
curity men, how he got away
again, why detectives didn't
track him down, and why offi
cials apparently paid no atten
tion to persistent press reports
last January that Bidault was
in London.
The Labor move did not im
ply any criticism of the right of
the BBC to televise the inter
view.
Most sections of the press sol
idly defended the BBC's right to
present news as it thought fit,
but the newspapers were asking
the same questions the Labor
shadow cabinet was asking.
Forged Passports
The Daily Mirror said Bi
dault has three forged passports
under different names and that
this information has been passed
to all ports and airports in Brit
ain and France. Bidault has
been reported in a number of
cities in West Europe in the
past year and apparently moves
about the Continent with rela
tive freedom.
Scotland Yard's special branch
of political detectives were re
ported under orders to spread
their search for a highly organ
ized French Secret Army Organ
ization cell operating from London.

Macmillan
Wins Vote
On Budget
LONDON MV Prime Minister
Harold Macmillan moved ahead
Wednesday with his plan to co
ordinate nuclear defense with
the United States after beating
down an opposition attack on
his record peacetime defense
budget.
Macmillan s Conservative party
government Tuesday night de
feated a Labor party motion of
no-confidcnce in the House of
Commons by a vote of 333-237.
A separate Conservative motion
n the government s policies was
carried by 323-237.
The victories were expected,
since Macmillan has a 101-mem-
ber majority in Commons. The
reduced margin on the second
vole resulted from the early de
parture of Conservative deputies
from the chamber.
The two-day debute on the
$5.1 billion budget showed the
determination of Defense Minis
ter Peter Thorneycroft to carry
on with plans to shift the em
phasis of British defense from
the V-bomber squadron to the
U. S. Polaris missile submarine.
The budget reflects Macmil
lan's Nassau agreement with
Kennedy calling for establish
ment of a multi-nation nuclear
force within the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization (NATO),
based on the Polaris.' .

British Columbia.
He will also give two other
talks, on the graduate study of
English and on the sonnets of
Milton and Donne, during his
two-day stay on the Vancouver
campus.

Kurfuerstendamm main street.
The head of the city govern
ment Security Department, new
ly named Deputy Mayor Hein
rich Albertz, said "explosives
are not a means of solving po
litical problems."
He said West Berlin police
had been ordered to go all out
to find the unknown bombers.
Police investigations so far
have disclosed the blast was
caused by about 10 pounds of
"professional" explosive believed
to have been set off by a
chemical fuse.
They have been unable to
trace the bombers.
The East German Communists
said the blast was set off by
"Fascist elements."
No one was injured in the
explosion which went off just as
theaters and movie houses were
emptying. A 77-year-old woman
in a nearby apartment suffered
a mild heart attack, and a West
Berlin policeman about 20 yards
from the Intourist Bureau was
knocked off his feet by the con
cussion. Albertz .said he "deeply re
gretted" the attack on the In
tourist Bureau, although the city
government had warned when
it opened that it might be a
target of anti-Communist demonstrations.

Or the Assnciltd Prrft
NEW YORK Is there a
new virus around?
It surely seems so to thou
sands of persons hit this win
ter by funny aches and pains
and upsets, including bloody
noses blamed on "the bloody
virus."
Perhaps it's true that brand
new viruses have popped up,
and might even start appear
ing at a faster rate, says Dr.
Robert Huebner of the Nation
al Institute of Allergy and In
fectious Diseases.
Scientists only recently iden
tified most of 120 or more
viruses known to cause colds,
fevers, muscular aches and
pains, diarrhea, coughs and
runny noses a great variety
of mostly minor ailments.
Man is their target, and
man has evolved and multi
plied over thousands of years.
Biologically speaking, virus
es had to evolve also "They
weren't all present the day
man was kicked out of para
dise," says Dr. Huebner, di
rector of the institute's labora
tory of infectious diseases in
Bethesda, Md.
Influenza viruses change or
mutate fairly frequently. Any
flu vaccine has to incorporate
the strain of virus blazing up
into an epidemic.
Other respiratory and in
testinal viruses also might be
mutating during chain-reaction
epidemics, reproducing
more viruses in each person.
Something could go amiss
in the genetic assembly line
so that a slightly different
virus is produced from time
to time. With more than
three billion people in the
world now, the chances could
be greater that a new virus
could appear, Heubner ex
plains. There's no way yet to prove
this. Peculiar illnesses this
year could well be due to
some old virus that hadn't
been active in recent years in
your locality.
This year, for example, in
some eastern cities many peo
ple got bloody nose:, beyond
the expectation of slight
bleeding due to injury to
nasal membranes by colds,
perhaps abetted by low hu
midity in heated houses.
These people got real nose
bleeds, sometimes along with
coughs, muscular aches and
intestinal upsets. One nose
and throat specialist called it
"the bloody virus."
Remember "Virus X," and
"24-hour virus" and other
names?
These are easy designations
for infections when doctora
and patients don't go to the
trouble and expense of lab
oratory tests to identify the
exact virus making a play
ground of your body.
Virus researchers have gone
deeper and are well along in
classifying 10 dozen or more
viruses into types and families
sometimes overlapping
known as echo virus, RS or
respiratory synctytial, adeno,
rhino, entero, coryza, ARD,
and ERC viruses.
They also are working out
the story still incomplete
of just what symptoms each
type produces. These viruses
cause varying amounts' of an
nual sickness, and Asian flu
got in some extra hefty licks
this year.
Vaccines are controlling
some of the most dangerous
viruses, including polio, flu
and smallpox.
The push for practical vac
cines against common cold,
respiratory and intestinal vi
ruses is much tougher, partly
because so many viruses are
involved. Quite aside from tha
boon of vaccines to reduce hu
man misery from these vi
ruses, thii research has even,
greater implications.
One is the growing suspicion
that garden-variety types of
viruses may be implicated
somehow in causing certain,
human cancers, says Dr. Maur
ice R. Hilleman of the Merck
Institute for Therapeutic Re
search in West Point, Pa.
Two adeno viruses which
cause respiratory troubles in
humans have been found
capable of producing malig
nancies in animals, he points
out.
The research for vaccines
against fairly ordinary viral
diseases may help in defining
causes of human cancer and
applying similar technique
for protection. Dr. Hilleman
says.
For a vaccine against colds,
says Hilleman, the first task
is to pin down which onea arc
most important in causing,
sicknesses, and then to learn
how many effectively and.
safely can be combined, in a
vaccine.
In some of the initial steps,
he and associates found that.
11 viruses or virus families,
apparently cause 40 per cent .
of respiratory illnesses in
children, and 19 per cent of
those in adults. .

GOP Maps 3-Year
Budget-Cutting Plan
WASHINGTON tm Congres
sional Republicans have charted
a three-year budget-cutting cam
paign which Sen. Everett M.
Dirksen hopes will yield an
initial $5 billion saving.
Dirksen, the Senate Republi
can leader, said in an interview
President Kennedy and Demo
cratic congressional chieftains
arc "off the beam" in contend
ing there is a GOP move to
slash spending by $15 billion in
the fiscal year starting July 1.
"We have put no price tag on
our economy program," Dirksen
said. "We are trying to go about
it as scientifically as possible to
make some substantial reduc
tions in the budget over the
next three years.
Recreation Program
Dirksen said that by paring
established functions somewhat
and by fighting against some of
the new programs Kennedy is
proposing, the Republicans hope
to cut appropriations substan
tially enough to reflect a $3 bil
lion saving in actual expendi
tures. As an example, he said Re
publicans will kick off their
drive in the Senate Thursday
with opposition to a bill to pro
vide for coordination and devel
opment of state-federal outdoor
recreation programs.
"This involves an outlay of
about $60 million," Dirksen
said. "Some people might say
that's a drop in the bucket. But
i. we can keep these drops from
filling up the bucket until it
runs over, we will have accom
plished an objective."
Youth Employment
Dirksen said the second target
of Republican attack will be a
youth employment measure ex
pected to be brought before tha
Senate late in the month. This
bill would set up a youth conser
vation corps and a community
service corps, ,
Republicans think total an
nual expenditures under this
program would amount to about
$500 million a year. Democrats
contend the ceiling on expendi
tures would be $280 million an
nually. Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey of
Minnesota, deputy Senate Demo
cratic leader, listed this measure
as one Kennedy wants passed
quickly. In view of the amount
of unemployment among young
people, he said he doesn't sea
how Republicans can oppose it.
