Only Two Real
Summit Leaders
To Be at Meet
By CHARLES M. MeCANN
L'lUted Prtws Staff Correspondent
There will be only two reaf
"Summit" leadens at the Big Four
Conference which opens In Geneva,
Switzerland, next Monday.
President Eisenhower and Brit
ish Prime Minister Anthony Eden
are the two.
They will be able to speak with
authority on any topic that may
come up for discussion.
Premier Edgar Fuure of France,
however, will have to watch his
step because of France's chronically-tottery
political situation.
Soviet Premier Nikolai Bulgan
in, the-fourth "Summit" leader, is
actually nothing more than a mem
ber of the Kremlin governing com-1
mittee.
It is an interesting fact also that
on the Western side, Eden is the
only chief delegate who com
mands a parliamentary majority.
Another sidelight is that Presi
dent Eisenhower is the ony one of
the four chef delegates who has
held his job as long as six months,
Bulganiri succeeded Georgl M
Malenkov on February 8. Faure
was confirmed by the French Na
tional Assembly as successor to
Pierre Mendes-France on Febru
ary 23. Eden succeeded Winston
Churchill on April 6.
It is true that the "Summit'
phase of the Geneva Conference
is to last only a few days, accord
ing to the outlooK now, ana me
chief delegates are not supposed to
make any big decisions on specific
issues.
That work will be left to the for
eign ministers of the four countries
in detailed discussions.
But it does seem a strange situ
ation that only two out of the
four chief delegates will have
real executive authority.
President Eisenhower lost his
congressional majority in the elec
tion last November, but he has
great executive authority and he
can be confident of Democratic
support in anything he does in Gen
eva. Eden is head man in his govern
ment, too. In the general elec
tion he called after he succeeded
Churchill, Eden's conservatives
won a majority of seats in the
630-seat House of Commons. Eden
will be supported by the moder
ate Laborites on anything he is
likely to do.

California's history gives new hope
to scores of mental patients who
otherwise would be lust.
The institution is San Francisco
County Hospital's psychialrir
ward. It's director is IW-year-oid
Dr. David Wilson, who receive.!
his M.D. from LSC in liM7, th
;arne year he became eligible to
vole.
We don't turn anybody away
if he has a chance in 90 days."
That is how Wilson describes th?
entrance requirements for the
West's pioneer municipal mental
institution now in its fifth year ol
operation.
As for the 90 days, that is the
period fixed by city ordinance i:i
which a socalled "select group
of patients are treated with th?
aim of subsequently returning them
to society.
Wilson admits he often wishes
he could stretch the time factor.
None the less, he proudly reports
he and his staff have met with
success in over SU per cent oi
their cases.
The psychiatric ward came into
being in 1950 after community
agencies had agitated for a chur
ter amendment to provide city
funds for treatment of mental pa
tients.
Before that time, all mentally
sick persons who could not afford
private hospitalization had to de
pend on overcrowded state facili
ties.
Actually, San Francisco County
Hospital ads as a receiving cen
ter for from 4,500 to 5,000 menhT!
patients annually. The bulk of
these are committed to state insti
tulions because they cannot be
treated under the strict statutory
provisions governing the psychiu-
trie ward.
The ward does not handle senilf
patients (whom it considers vic
tims of a form of old age rather
than psyehosis)(( children or alco
holics, who are relerred to an
other agency of the city health de
partment which deals exclusive
ly in alcoholism.
The ward will take any other
mentally ill patient provided he is
a San Francisco resident who is
medically indigent" and volun
tnrily submits to treatment.
The term medically indigent
does not denote pauperism, Wil
son explains it:
A patient can have a certain
Amount of money 'and still be in
digent by our standards if he can
not afford to take three months'
hospital treatment. There are
lot of people in that situation.
pecinlly breadwinners.
Wilson says most of the patients
in the "select group' suffer from
one of the following mental dis
orders: schizophrenia (split person
ality): depressionism, characteri
zed by extreme gloom with or with
out suicidal tendencies; middle
life mental diseases (involving
both sexes; neuro-syphilitic dis
eases brought on by advanced
stages of syphilis, and severe neu
rotic cases, when a person Is not
mentally ill but too nervous to be
stable.
The select group, which aver
ages 30 persons at any one time,
has progressed so well that only
six persons have been committed
from it in the past six months.

Check on Birth
Science Today
By DKLOS SMITH
1 1 jilted Press Science Editor
NEW YORK (UP) Scientists
striving to give the human race a
simple and sure way of controlling
its prodigious and alarming fer
tility for example, something as.
easy as taking an aspirin be
lieve they are on the verge of suc
cess.
They're talking very reluctantly,
when they talk at all, since no
scientist wants to rouse false ex
pectations. But this writer has
been given good reason for be
lieving that several easy "aspirin
tablet" ways which act on the fer
tility of animals, now are being
tested very quietly and privately
in human beings.
Since fertility in whatever "bio
logical system," whether animal or
vegetable, results from chemical
processes, these scientists are
working with chemicals which "an
tagonize" those processes. So far
us experimental animals are con
cerned, a potent antagonizing
chemical (or chemicals) is con
tained in a weed which grows in
the Rocky Mountains.
Weed Called "Lithosperm"
That this weed has anti-fertility
properties is well known; indeed,
it has come to be called "Jitho-
sperm mho being a com
bining word form, meaning
stone. What is new and excit
ing to investigating scientists is
that science is very close to sep
arating its anti-fertility chemical
or chemicals from the rest of the
plant's many substances.
When scientists can work with
the pure, unadulterated antagonist,
it will be a simple matter to find
how much of it is needed, and how
often, to assure a positive result.
The scientists then can learn tc
make it, to assure a cheap, un
limited supply. They are experi
menting now with extracts which'
are heavily saturated with the anti-
fertility "factor," most probably ir
human beings as well as in ex
perimental animals.
Another far-advanced quest foi
fertility control" is through the
chemical maze which is the body's
system of internally secreting
glands, the pituitary glands se
crete hormone like substances,
gonadotropins, which circulate
with the blood and regulate stages

would "antagonize" the gonado
tropins. Chemical substances such
as those contained in lithosperm
antagonize spermatozoa or ova
the male and female germ cells
after they've been made. The hor
monal method would antagonize
the making of them.
A Terrifying Urgency
The hormonal method is about
to be tested in human beings, if
indeed it isn't already being tested.
It requires injections in its present
stage of development; the litho
sperm method is by pills.
Some scientists and groups place
a terrifying urgency upon the find
ing of some easy, sure way of
"controlling fertility" a method
which would be accessible and ac
ceptable to the masses in such
countries as India, Japan, Egypt,
and Puerto Rico and even in
the United States, but with less
urgency here.
The Planned Parenthood Feder
ation, which has spent $300,000 on
the scientific search for such a
way since 1948, put it this way:
"The global need is to bring aboul
a better balance between the fer
tility of the soil and the fertility
of man. For every undernourished
person before World War II, there
are now almost two . . . world pop
ulation is growing at the rate of
about 90,000 a day."
