Shots Rid Rabbit Oi Dread Cancer Atlantic City, N. J., April 21 UP) Shots that protect rabbits from getting one deadly type of cancer were reported today to the Federation of American So cieties for Experimental Biology. The shots are extracts of the cancer cells. They make the rab bit produce antibodies that im munize him against that kind of cancer. The antibodies that light the cancer cells were reported by Dr. John G. Kicld and Dr. Ber nard Kalfayan of the New York hospital Cornell medical center. They work only against this one form of cancer, called Brown-Pearce carcinoma, Dr. Kidd said. The cancer is a rare one that affects certain breeds of rabbits. They get it only when the cancer is implanted into their bodies, after being taken from another rabbit. The antibodies that appeared in the rabbit's blood didn't have any effect against other kinds of rabbit cancer. The Brown - Pearce cancer contains a virus-like agent. It has never been shown that any type of human cancer is caused by a virus. The antibody find ings in this case aren't likely to have any immediate bearing on human cancers, Dr. Kidd said. .Candle Light Rites By Pythian Sisters Independence Led by Evelyn Newton, most excellent chief, a candlelight re-obligaton service was held at the Willamette tem pie, No. 45, Pythian Sisters.

Restitution Made By Seattle Man After U Years Seattle, April 21 VP) Allan P. Hull came back to Seattle last October after a 14-year absence. His return was prompted by a desire to square accounts for having absconded with $8,500 back in 1935 when vice presi dent of the Tower Savings bank. Doggedly he refused to say where he had been during the 14 years. Neither would he tell how he had earned the money to pay back the missing funds He explained his refusal by saying he wished to return to his new home when he had knew of his past, he said. Now, everything is about squared up. The money has been paid back and the six month sentence minus 25 days for good behavior will be over next Wednesday. Then will come his" final hurdle. When Hull is released to Lou Kesslcr, chief state pa role officer, he must file a "parole plan" a form giving his expected address and how he plans to earn a living. If he complies, his secret is out. If he refuses, Kesslcr said he would be turned back to Judge Chester A. Batchelor for dispo sition. The judge could do one of squared things. No one there 'three things: dismiss the case Capital Journal, Salem, Oregon, Friday, April 21, 1950 9 Central High Band Schedules Concerts Independence The Central high school band will present its first concerts in Monmouth and Independence on the nights of April 25 and 26, at 8 o'clock.

The girls sewing classes, under the direction of Mrs. Earl Ross, will have their work on display, while the boys, who have live stock projects will not show their work until fair time, ac cording to Rev. E. C. Schilling, their leader. The National Milk Producers federation joined the National Grange yesterday in plumping for a proposed "self-financing" farm plan intended to shift much or all of the cost of price sup ports from the taxpayer to the farmer. There are signs the National Council of Farmer Cooperatives may come up with a similar proposal. It has assigned a com mittee to draft a sound long range farm plan. Council President John Davis said in an interview that his or ganization would favor any feasible" plan for putting more of the responsibility for financ ing and administering farm pro grams into the hands of the far mers themselves. "There's a general feeling among farm leaders that weld better do something to get the farm program on a sound basis," he said. "Much of the criticism of the present program is not justified. But much of it is!" The general outline of the "self-financing" plans proposed by the milk producers and the orange are similar. They are among a half dozen new reme dies for dealing with farm sur pluses. Under . their proposals, the government would continue to purchase farm commodities to maintain market prices at the support level. But each sale by farmer of a price-supported commodity would be subject to a special tax. This would be set high enough to provide funds needed to cover .government losses in disposing of commodi ties that ended up in its "surplus pool." Surpluses could be sold abroad or diverted to "new domestic uses" at cut-rate, prices. The "surplus pool" would be man aged by a "bipartisan" board of directors whose members would be appointed for long terms. Cats are considered worthless by the Kafirs, a South African tribe.
