Search for Cancer
Drug Under Way
Washington li.P.) The Public
Health Service today set in mo
tion a vast program to test thous
ands of chemicals in a search
for a drug to cure cancer.
Surgeon General Leonard A.
Scheele announced the award of
contracts for the work to five
laboratories. He said they will
begin work at once.
At present the only cancer
cures come from surgery or rad
iation. Some forms of cancer,
such as acute leukemia cannot
be treated at all in this way.
Other forms may be diagnosed
only after they have spread
throughout the body, too late to
be benefited by either surgery
or radiation. Chemical treatment
appears to offer the greatest
hope in such cases.
Compounds now in use have
successfully prolonged the use
ful life of patients suffering from
some non-operable cancers. But
these compounds are not cura
tive. The laboratories awarded the
contracts include the Stanford
Research Institute, Menlo Park,
Calif.

Five Reds Executed in
Purge Now Said To Be

today that former Foreign Min-1 P r s e n t e d against
T , ., j . ,u them by Gen. Gabor Peter, the
ister Lazlo Rajk and four other , toTmeT chief of Hungary's secur.
Red leaders were "innocently i jty police.
tried and executed" in 1949 in ! The "show trial" of Rajk and
one of the last of the great Stal-1 his fur associates was one of
in era purges.
Rajk, the onetime police boss
in Hungary , who rose to even
greater prestige as foreign min
ister in 1948, was executed in
1949 with four other Hungarian
Communists as a traitor. Until
today Hungary had held him up
as one of its worst examples.
Radio Budapest announced
today the Supreme Court of the
Communist nation had re-examined
his trial and "rehabilitat
ed" him and the other four vic
tims of the purge. The Com
munists have used the term to
mean restoring someone's good
name.
Quotes Rakosi Speech
The radio quoted a speech by
Matyas Rakosi, the Communist
boss of Hungary and first secre
tary of the Hungarian Workers
(Communist) party at a party
meeting at Eger. He admitted
they had been wrongly tried
and executed as state enemies.
Rajk was the first major Com
munist leader in a satellite state
to be "rehabilitated" since the
recent Communist Party con
gress in Moscow started its cam
paign to downgrade Josef Stalin
and to repair some of the "en
ormous" harm he did.
Rajk "confessed" during his
trial that he and his compan
ions were conspiring with Yugo
slavia to overthrow the Com
munist regime in Hungary. Ra
kosi's speech broadcast today
strongly indicated the alleged
confession was a forgery.
Falling in Line
The speech, also published in
today's "Szabad Nep," the cen
tral organ of the Communist
Party of Hungary, showed Hun
gary was falling in line with
Russia in confessing the errors
of Stalin's "cult of personality."
O&C limber Salvage
Speed-up Announced
Washington U.P.) Interior
Secretary Douglas McKay to
day announced an amendment to
Oregon and California lands reg
ulations designed to encourage
speedier salvaging of damaged
and dead timber in OC lands.
The amendment gives Edward
Woozley, director of the Bureau
of Land Management, discretion
ary authority to waive market
ing restrictions governing the
sale of O&C salvage timber
whenever good forest manage
ment requires it.
McKay said "the bureau now
has full authority to proceed
with the lifting of any or all
area marketing restrictions with
out holding a public . hearing,
where the effect on the economy
of a timber-dependent commun
ity would be negligible or in
cases of emergency where speed
would be the governing factor."
Packaged Poultry
Weight Errors Found
Salem . (U.P,). The State
Agriculture department said to
day a number of weight and
labeling violations had been
turned up in checking cut - up
poultry sold in Willamette val
ley stores.
The check was made in 22
plants from south of Portland
to Eugene which pack poultry
for retail channels and in 64
retail stores. Weight and label
violations were found in 12
plants and label violations in
one additional plant.
In the retail stores, 59 were
found selling packages of
poultry which did not weigh as
much as the label said, or which
were not labeled to show the
entire weight. Only one store
was entirely free of violations
on either count, and in four
stores no weight labels were
found on pre-packaged poultry.

500,000 Trees To Be
Planted in Region
More than 500,000 trees will
be planted in the Rogue River
National forest this spring, ac
cording to Supervisor Jack
Wood.
Planting was started by a
small crew last Monday on the
Applegate ranger district and
additional men will.be added to
the project as snow recedes from
the higher country, Wood said.
In another three weeks the
Ashland, Butte Falls and Union
Creek ranger districts expect to
begin planting. Heavy snow
pack has delayed the work.
Douglas fire, Shasta red fir,
ponderosa pine, Jeffery pine
and sugar pine are being planted
with nursery grown stock.
Large numbers of the trees
were carried over to this spring
after last fall's early snows
stopped planting.
Both regular forest service
employees and contractors are
doing the work. , ,
Creswell Farmer in
Korea for Orphans
Seoul, Korea 4J.P.) '. Harry
Holt, the Creswell, Ore., farmer
who last year adopted eight Ko
rean war orphans, said today he
returned to Korea to set in mo
tion an "orphans assembly line"
that will put more than 1,000
more homeless waifs in new
American homes.
Holt said he hopes to place the
Korean-American children in
homes in 46 states before the
end of the year.
Interrupting spring planting
on his 350-acre farm, Holt re
turned to Korea this week as
adopting agent for American
families requesting war orphans.
Under the national refugee
act of 1953, U.S. citizens are
permitted to adopt by proxy one
or two war orphans if an Ameri
can resident of Korea acts as
their intermediary. The act ex
