The only mention of the Presi
dent, Franklin Pierce, was to the
effect that he had made a few
appointments. They had to do
with small jobs in Illinois, New
Hampshire and a couple of other
states. No names were mention
ed; neither were the nature of
the jobs.
Looking for Slave
An interesting item came up
in the most prominent paper of
the day in Washington, the In
telligencer. It concerned one,
John A. Washington. He adver
tised for a house servant and
waiter. He said, "I wish to pur
chase for my own use a Negro
man, not exceeding 30 years of
age, with his wife and children.
xxxThe Negroes to be of sound
health and slaves for life."
There was news about hot
weather and the cold to come.
A place called Blakiston's Pavil
ion, somewhere near the Capitol,
was whooping it up for rooms
for S30 per month, or for a
shorter stop $1.25 a day. The
advertisement said nothing about
whether grub was included, but
added, as a come-on that there
was available a "good band of
cotillion music from Washing
ton" on hand at all times.
Another ad encouraged folks
to store up wood for the cold
weather to come. "Will deliver
good oak, $5.50 per cord. Coal
$6-50 a ton."
Some importers with an eye on
sales advertised that they had in
bottles, "for medical purposes,
the very best of port wine,
brandy, Scotch ale and brown
stout to be found hereabouts."
Rents Going Up
Rents apparently had gone up
a bit. One man offered a new
two-story brick house, with an
attic and basement on 13th st.,
which in 1955 is stacked with
business houses and where prop
erty is worth a fortune.
The man asked $23 a month
for nine rooms. And from the
tone of his ad, it could be con
cluded that he might come down
a coin or so, if necessary.
The New York Times printed
an item that would send a mod
ern feature writer for details.
All the story said was:
"One of the Brooklyn justices
fined his own brother $10 for
intoxication."
The comment at the end of the
item " was: "Impartial justice,
that."
Patterson Lists
Three Possibilities
If Ike Doesn't Run
Chicago (U.R) Republican
Gov. Paul L. Patterson of Ore
gon yesterday named three "pos
sibilities" for the GOP presi
dential nomination in 1956 if
President Eisenhower decided
not to run.
The three were Vice President
Richard M. Nixon, Henry Cabot
Lodge, head of the United States
delegation to the United Nations,
and Paul G. Hoffman, former
head of the Economic Coopera
tion Administration. -
However, Patterson said he
was certain the President would
run again because "he started
something of a peace drive at
Geneva and wants to see it
through.
GOP Chances Seen Less
"Besides," Patterson added,
"the President has spent his en
tire life acceding to responsibil
ity, and I am sure he will con
tinue to do so unless serious
health problems arise."
Patterson conceded that Re
publican chances would "not be
as great" with any of the three
possible candidates he named
and that there probably would
be a convention struggle."
But, he said, "no party should
depend on an irreplaceable in
dividual, and the President
would never want it that way."
Patterson spoke at a news con
ference at the 47th governors
conference.

Hidden Ingredient in Cod Liver
Oil Found To Have Healing Effect
By DELOS SMITH
United Press Science Editor
New York (U.R) An experi
ment in the relation of poor nu
trition to tuberculosis has unex
pectedly produced evidence of a
hidden and unknown ingredient
in cod liver oil which has a heal
ing effect within the human
body.
Dr. Horace R. Getz, of a TB
sanitarium at Altadena, Calif.,
took a group of new patients
who because of low concentra-1
tions of vitamins A and C in
their blood seemed to have been
in a poor nutritional state when
they contracted the disease.
Rather than using the new
"m i r a c le anti - tuberculosis
drugs, Dr. Getz started out by
treating them in the traditional
way bed rest. All were given
a nourishing basic diet. About
one third were given synthetic
vitamin A in tablet form. A
second sub-group was given cod
liver oil because it contains vita
min A. A third group got no
added vitamins at all.
Getz wanted to see how the
Series of Tests Checks
Strength of Woods
Corvallis A series of tests to
check the strength of wood struc
tures for earthquake, blast and
wind resistance have been made
at the Oregon Forest Products
Laboratory at Oregon State col
lege. The studies are being con
ducted in the state research
agency by Dr. J. Robert Still
inger. The laboratory is located
on the OSC campus and is sup
ported by a timber harvest tax.
Information learned from the
experiments will be valuable to
building authorities in establish
ing building code standards.
bodies of each group fought the
TB bug in comparison with the
other two groups.
The patients who got the syn
thetic vitamin A didn't do any
better than the patients who got
their only vitamins from their
diets. Among these two groups,
there were a considerable num
ber of worsening cases. But all
the patients who received cod
liver oil got better, and their
TB wounds showed signs of heal
ing. "The clinical results suggest
that a factor favorable to heal
ing is present in the crude con
centrate of vitamin A from cod
liver oil," said Dr. Getz.
"The results encourage further
work, which is now under way,
to find the active principle re
sponsible for the effects noted
with the crude concentrate."
The American Review of Tu
berculosis Journal also reported
an odd development in the treat
ment of the dread "white plague"
which in this country is dimin
ishing steadly, what with the
"miracle drugs" chiefly isoni
azid that are effective against
it for the time being. This de
velopment was discovered by
Drs. Anne S. Youmans and Guy
P. Youmans of Northwestern
University Medical School.
TB is caused by bacteria the
tubercle bacilli. Isoniazid pre
vents them from growing and
multiplying. In many cases, how
ever, the bacilli have become
"resistant" to isoniazid. The rea
son they have, the Youmans re
ported, is because some strains
of bacilli are now exuding a
chemical substance which pre
vents isoniazid from preventing
their growth and multiplication.
The Youmans don't know yet
the nature of this substance. It
may be a protein but it may also
be an enzyme. Even more oddly,
strains of bacilli which were
susceptible to isoniazied seemed
to give off more of the substance
than strains which were entirely
resistant. They warned that no
conclusions should be drawn at
this time. It may be, however,
that they are on the trail of how
bacteria become resistant to
"miracle drugs." If and when
they find out it will be a great
day.
