20 Capital Journal, Salem, Oregon, Thursday, Nor. 21, 1946 Sadistic Practices of Nazi Physicians Revealed Chicago, Nov. 21 (U.R) Nazi physicians tried to transplant human legs and subjected innocent victims to sterilizing doses of X-rays, the Journal of the American Medical association reported S1 today. An article on the bru talities of nazi doctors declared some of the experiments were sadistic and were performed by pseudo-scientists and untrained personnel without adequate rea son. Twenty-three nazi physicians will go on trial December 5 at Nuernberg, Germany, charged with the crime of having con ducted experiments on human bengs resulting in innumerable deaths. The AMA article was based upon a report by Dr. A. C. Ivy, vice president of the University of Illinois, who had been picked to represent the association in an investigation of these acts. Multiple Conception Tried An attempt was made by the nazi physicians to increase the rate of reproduction of the Ger man people through multiple ovulation and conception, the report said. "Indecencies c h a r a cterized these experiments," the article said. "Studies were made to ascer tain how a population could be sterilizeo without their knowl edge, so that the sterilization would be accomplished without the fact becoming available for propaganda by enemies of the reich. "One method under study was to place the dried juice of a plant in the fobd of the popula tion. Another was to expose men and women to a castration dose of X-rays while they were filling out government forms. "A third method consisted in injecting the cavity of the uter us with a sterilizing agent dur ing the course of a routine phys ical examination of the women of the population." Tried to Transplant Legs "Attempts were made to transplant legs and other organs which animal experimentation has shown to be impracticable. In one instance, a piece of 'hair growing skin' was transplanted to the nose of a Jewess," the AMA article said. The lethal effects of poisoned bullets were studied to deter mine how long after a person was shot the disease would be come apparent, and how long it would be before he died. The nazi physicians shortened arms and legs of human beings by cutting out sections of their bones to see how much bone might be removed without ham pering normal movement, the Journal article said. One series of murders, the ar ticle said, was done to provide skeletons for a museum. Men to Spend Heavy Dough for Cosmetics Chicago, Nov. 21 (U.R)Men will start spending as much money for cosmetics as their wives within the next five years, three men experts on male grooming predicted today. W. B. Woodard, Chicago, Wil liam Watt, New York, and Ralph J. Kachelhoffer, Freeport. 111., all representatives of large cos metics firms, said men are on their way toward buying great quantities of face powder, bath powder and cologne. They'll probably buy a lot of powder puffs, too, the experts predicted at the annual "spot and spring market" of the Illi nois Men's Apparel club. More than $50,000,000 in "beauty preparations" were sold to men last year and the 1946 purchases will be even greater, the cosmeticians said. ' "Men who used to steal their wives' face powder after shav ing and douse themselves with rose-scented cologne are coming right out in the open now and buying cosmetics made just for men," Woodard said. One Strike Succeeds Another in Alaska Fairbanks, Alaska, Nov. 21 VP) Ladd field carpenters were back on the job today but elec tricans stayed away from work as one strike succeeded another The electricians left work here and at Anchorage, they said, because the contractor, Birch Johnson Lytle company, refused to meet the union's re quirement that union men can work for none but an electrical contractor. This would require the general contractor to sub let electrical work. Carpenters returned to work when the company agreed to negotiate a working agreement on wage increases. Ben Potter, head of the Building Trades union, told interviewers that the threatened termination of housing had nothing to do with their decision. Newsprint May Go Back Under Control New York, Nov. 21 (UP) The newsprint consumers em ergency committee asked Presi dent Truman today to put news print back under price control and th quota system, asserting that mall quantity users of newsprint were threatened with suspension. "Removal of price ceilings nd wartime controls over news print paper threatens the con tinued existence of the nation's traditional free press," Marty Berg, chairman of the commit tee, said in a telegram to the president.
