T Cells Take On Different Ap pearance As End Near Cancer and Leukemia Kindred Ailments Is Word PORTLAND, Sept. 1 (P Proph- eta of tho blood stream abnormal cells which predict death within a week, were described here today by Dr. Edwin E. Osgood, professor of ex perimental medicine at the Univer sity of Oregon medical school. The cells which forecast death for their host are normally present In the blood stream. Dr. Osgood said, but take on a different appearance when death U near. Succeed In Tests When seen under the microscope. Dr. Osgood explained, the abnormal cells enow granules, or grains, nor mally not present; the stain used to make them visible shows a deeper blue, and the cells show vacuoles, or holes, In their surfaces. Death was correctly predicted In over 90 per cent of the more than 100 consecutive cases In Multnomah county hospital when blood samples showed characteristic holes m con junction with toxic granules. Dr. Os good relates In his new book, "Atlas of Hematology." Studies described In the atlas pro duced further evidence that cancer and leukemia, a fatal blood disease, are allied ailments. Leukemia cells ehow characteristic enlargement of the necleoll, a small clear-staining portion within the nuclei, the cen tral deep-statnlng part of the cell, Dr. Osgood said. The condition Is typ ical of cancerous cells. New Invention Dr. Osgood also announced Inven tion of a new, simplified system of blood cell classification for Identifi cation of Individual blood cells ac cording to size, color, graculatlon and Jiuclear structure. Dr. Osgood perfected the appara tus which propagated individual cellc 'outside the body for the first time in medical history. Dr. Alexis Car rell has grown tissue In the labora tory, but separate cell culture was ! Impossible before the Osgood tech nique was developed. i i a F .

AFTERJLABOR DAY Most Interests Now Agree Aotion Will Be Helpful Estimates of Those Not Working Vary Greatly WASHINGTON'. Sept. 1. (AP) The five officials named to direct the unemployment census authorised by congress will work out detailed arrangements at a meeting soon after Labor day, associates sal d to day. President Roosevelt signed yester day a bill providing for voluntary registration of the Jobless and tabu lation of data on part-time employ ment and Job opportunities. The census Is to be completed by next April 1. The bill authorized use of 16.000, 000 of WPA funds but Senator Byrnes (D., B.C.) told the senate, time of passage, that probably not more than 14, 000 .000 would be needed Opposed In Past. Both President Roosevelt and WPA administrator Harry L. Hopkins in the past have opposed taking unemployment census, on grounds the government had all the infor mation needed to carry on Its relief work. Later, however, Hopkins said a census could be helpful "in order to understand more completely the na ture of the present unemployment problem." , There have been widely divergent estimates aa to the number of unem ployed. The National Association of Manu facturers, which has reported that more people are at work now than In 1929. termed the new bill "a step in the right direction." Estimates Wide. Several months ago Senator Van denberg (R., Mich.) estimated the unemployed at 2,075.000. Secretary of Labor Perkins used the figure of 8.000,000; the American Federation of Labor estimated between 9,000,000 and 10.000.000. Hopkins- has asserted that not even boom times will cut the total far under 4,000,000 or 6.000.000. Every 10 years, in its regular cen sus, the census bureau takes count of the unemployed: in 1930 the figure was put at 3.891.000. The canvassers divided this total as follows: Able to work and hunting work - 2.420,000 Having Jobs but laid off ... 769.000 Unable to work 173.000 Having Jobs, but laying off 274,000 Out of a Job. not hunting for another Idle, but drawing pay 88.000 82,000 Frightened Boy Admits Stabbing EUGENE, Sept. 1. (AP) State police said today the confession of a frightened boy had cleared up tne mystery of the stabbing of Lee Koch, 18-year-old cannery worker. The boy.
