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

Boos Are Boxoffice Boon
Is Answer to Injunction
TIPTON, Ga., Sept. 1. (AP) Con
tending boos are a boxoffice boon,
Tlfton booers framed a vigorous re
ply today to an Injunction banning
booing of commercial advertisements
In movie programs.
On the petition of Theater Man
ager R. E. Martin, Superior Judge
R. Eve Issued the temporary re
straining order against the oral out
bursts of local No. 3 of the So
ciety for the Booing of Commercial
Advertisements In Motion Picture
Theaters.
Also named in the suit was the
Tlfton Gazette, which printed an
advertisement wherein members of
local No. 3 appealed for public sup
port. Damages were mentioned In Mar
tin's petition also, but Publisher
John Herring (himself a non-booer
scorned any such claim and asserted
that far from Injuring business, the
booing had been a boxoffice bo
nanza. .
"We carried the ad Wednesday
and there was a full turnout of the
club Wednesday night." fald Her

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
