0 G 0 SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Tueiday, October II, 1955 Monkey Trappers Go To Pakistan New Delhi OJ.R) The off again, on-again policy of the gov ernment of India on the export of monkeys for polio research has caused an exodus of expert monkey trappers from India to Pakistan. A contingent of 16 trappers $t)om Uttar Pradesh State left for Dacca, East Pakistan, in the last week of August to direct op erations in the menkey-infested jungles of East Bengal where their services are welcomed. More trappers are expected to leave soon. o The exodus of professional trappers from India began early this year when the government imposed an embargo on the ex port of rhesus monkeys because some were badly treated in shipment. The ban was modified In April, and on Aug. 25, India agreed to export monkeys to the United States during the year ending June, 1956 in "quantities sufficient to meet U. S. needs." It is estimated that the United States needs about 100,000 rhe sus monkeys every year to pro duce vaccine and conduct medi cal experiments. The agreement obviously has not impressed the trappers, who are now in Lucknow to get per mits to go to Pakistan. They said "exporters in Pakistan pay us $3 per animal." However, despite the exodus, under the new agreement ship ments of monkeys are now mov ing normally from India to the United States. New York Residents Move Less Than Others Albany, N. Y.

(U.R) For the flamingo to go with your backyard pool there should be ground shellfish to brighten his pink feathers. Prof. Denis L. Fox of the Uni versity of California's Scripps Institution of Oceanography has found shellfish should be given to flamingos in addition to their usual diet of grass pellets, millet, rice anddried flies. The shellfish contribute to the rich pink coloration of the bird because the pigment astaxanth- in, such as colors the shells of the lobster, passes into the flam ingo's body.

Bock Stars: Ike Determined To Walk By MERRIMAN SMITH United Pf ess White House Writer Denver (U.R) Backstairs at the Denver White House: The true Eisenhower personal ity came out over the week end when he told his doctors in no uncertain terms that he did not want to be carried aboard his air craft as a stretcher case. The President much prefers to spend an extra week or so out here, than appear in newsreel and still photographers as an invalid bundled up in an Air Force, litter and being hauled up the ramp to his aircraft Despite Mr. Eisenhower's plans for long-term convalescence in Denver, , he still may face the possibility of being carried aboard his aircraft. He may be able to walk to the edge' of the ramp of his plane, but his doc tors certainly will not permit him to climb the steep ramp nec errary for conventional entry to the passenger cabin of a Super Constellation. Current and possibly propheti cal gag going around the White House crowd this week: "Christmas cannot be far away. Have the family back in Washington send tree orna ments." This, of course, was a cynical view of the duration of the President's stay here. The Secret Service has set into motion a plan of rotation for its agents. Maximum time off back in Wash ington for the White House de tail of the men charged with the President's protection was two weeks. I few months back by printing up thousbands of plastic buttons which carried one simple instruc tion, "Relax." Dr. Paul Dudley White, the Boston heart specialist who is re garded as the prime authority for Mr. Eisenhower's heart at tack case, has turned out to be one of the most attractive press and radio personalities of recent years. On Sunday afternoon, White took time, before going to his airplane, to visit an area of Lowry Air Force Base known as "Pig Alley." This is where the reporters assigned to the Presi dent on a 24-hour basis spend their nights on relatively crude GI cots in a hallway outside the press room which has been the center of American news for two weeks. Someone asked White whether he thought the reporters were living under healthy conditions. In his small, New England voice, he suggested that they might, fare better if they opened the doors at either end of the hall and permitted fresh air to come in. White in his firm and clear manner showed what it takes to keep a heart patient, even if he is the President, in good health during the first critical two weeks. White, meeting with re porters Sunday afternoon, told how the President tended to wake up after seven or eight hours of sleep. Then the doctors gave him a small capsule of Seconal, a seda tive, and this medication gives the President another 60 to 120 minutes of slumber. Purpose of this medication, White said, was to slow down Mr. Eisenhower's active mental processes. The doctor said quite frankly that the Seconal was in tended to prevent the President's active mind from becoming "too active too early." Dead line for Sunday Classified is t noon Saturday E. Ress, New York public re lations man and specialist in manufacturing buttons for politi cal occasions, has come up with a new one. - Ress,' in the last few days, has mailed to the White House a bountiful supply of windshield stickers which show a crimson heart and behind it, the inscrip tion, "Get well Ike, America needs your heart."
