Is That So?
By EUGENE BURNS
Rjnger-Naturalist
Amman. Just how Ara
bian is the Arabian horse?
To begin with, very few
Arabs have horses. Most of
them prefer camels instead.
In Addition, historically
speaking horses were virtual
ly unknown in Arabia up to
about 1,500 years ago. Camels
were used exclusively.
Where the Arabs got their
first horses from is not defi
nitely known, but the evi
dence suggests that it was
Asia via Persia. And the four
major breeds of Arabian
horses all are claimed to de
scend from one famous mare
with the difficult name of
Keheilet Ajuz.
The question interested me
as a result of a heated argu
ment between Jordanian gen
tlemen, one arguing the su
periority of the horse, the
other that of the camel.
A n especially interesting
point brought up was why the
Arabian horse was not intro
duced into Europe until in the
1600s. Why hadn't it been in
troduced four centuries earli
er during the Crusades when
much of Palestine and Syria
was held by Europeans for
nearly a century?
The answer was that the
Europeans then didn't consid
er the Arabian horse good
enough to bother with. He

was too small. The Europeans,
wearing heavy armor them
selves ' and having their
horses heavily armored as
well, needed to have steeds as
big as they could get. As a
result they didn't bother with
Arabian horses and concen
trated instead on getting the
biggest types, such as the
Percherons which were used
as drey horses up to the ad
vent of the truck.
As for the use that Arabs
have for horses, it has been
confined ' almost exclusively
to war. They had a value
there only in the surprise at
tack. Even then the value was
questionable since in making
an attack on the enemy, un
less he was close to home, it
was necessary to lead the
horses across the desserts to
the place from which the
final attack was launched.
In other words, the Arabs
didn't ride their horses to the
battleground. They rode cam
els instead in order to save
the horse for the attack.
That, however, was a re
finement of fashion more than
anything else, and is an ex
cellent illustration of style
affects warfare as well as
dress.
The truth is that some of
the better breeds of racing
camels raised in Arabia can
give a quite satisfactory per
formance in competition with
the horse. An when anything
beyond a short burst of speed
is called for, the horse doesn't
stay in the picture at all. It is
the camel and nothing else.

By DELOS SMITH
UPI Science Editor
New York (UPD In the
view of Dr. Andrew C. Ivy,
professor of physiology at the
University of
Illinois, scien
tists at the
Sloan - Ket
tering I n s t i
tute for Can
cer Research
are proving
he is right
about the con
troversial can-
Delos Smith c e r drug,
"krebiozen," which has been
rejected both by organized
cancer research and by or
ganized medicine.
Ivy has just advanced his
views in a letter to Dr. Har
old S. Diehl, vice president for
research and medical affairs
of the American Cancer So
ciety. The society's scientific
committee has been consid
ering since February whether
to give "krebiozen" a "dou
ble blind test" , that would es
tablish once and for all
whether it is effective against
cancer or worthless.
Have Natural Defenses
Ivy quoted from a recently
published Sloan-Kettering re
search report which not only
said "there is reason to be
lieve" animal bodies have na
tural chemical defenses
against cancer, but their sci
entists by "manipulating and
enhancing these defenses" in
laboratory animals, had cured
the animals of some types of
experimental cancers.
Since 1925, Ivy said, he has
beenteaching that the human
body has natural chemical de
fenses because "perhaps in
one out of 100,000 cases the
body of the patient cures its
ills."

He pointed to the Sloan-
Kettering announcement that
zymosan, a substance taken
from yeast, stimulated the na
tural chemical cancer defenses
of mice, "tipping the scales in
favor of the endangered host
and against the cancer."
Sloan - Kettering added that
zymosan was too toxic to use
in human beings with cancer.
Also Too Toxic
Ivy said "krebiozen" was
derived from a mold, "a rela
tive of yeasts." This mold also
is too toxic for human use, he
said. But when it is injected
into horses, it stimulates their
chemistry into manufacturing
the specific cancer defense
chemical, which is "krebio
zen," he said. : ,
In 1951, when the contro
versy began, Ivy had said
krebiozen "may prove to be
a key to 'the cure" and per
haps the prevention of can
cer," and if it is now "my con
sidered and sincere conviction
that krebiozen represents the
only presently available fruit
of this new understanding of
the problem of cancer to
which the Sloan-Kettering re
searchers are contributing so
outstandingly."
