Sen. Clinton P. Anderson
(D-N.M.), member and form
er chairman of the Senate
House Atomic Energy Com
mittee, engaged in a heated
dispute earlier this year with
Lewis L. Strauss, now retired
as chairman of the Atomic
Energy Commission, on this
subject.
Anderson contended the
military had deliberately
withdrawn atomic weapons
from the stockpile to make
them "dirtier." Strauss hotly
denied this and so did the
military.
Anderson said today, "I am
very glad they finally con
firmed what I said. I have
seen so many weapons already
altered I was sure they would
some day have to say so."
He said he was not object
ing to such alteration. "It is
the responsibility of the mili
tary to have all types of weap
ons for specific purposes," he
said in an interview. "It both
ered me that thfey kept talk
ing about clean bombs as if
that were the only thing they
were interested in."
WATCH THAT BOTTLE
Derby, England' (UPD The
managing director of one of
Britain's largest mineral
water firms told housewives
today they "might as well"
give their children bottled
beer than homemade ginger
beer. Bill Sturgess said lab
oratory tests showed that a
sample of fermented home
brewed ginger beer contained
more than 7 per cent alcohol,
compared with the 3 to 4 per
cent alcohol found in bottled
beer.
into gap-toothed grins at the
first friendly overture.
The castle itself has 200
rooms, and long, steep flights
of stairs and parapets which
suddenly turn into corridors
and ledges that fall to the
rocks below.
I reached Jumblatt's castle
after a two-hour taxi ride
from Beirut, passing through
at least a dozen bandit road
posts with nothing more than
my American passport and
the garrulous amiability of
my cab driver.
Leader Holds Court
In the courtyard below the
castle were several hundred
rebels armed with rifles, belt
ed hand grenades, (subma
chineguns and cartridge belts
crossed over their shoulders.
Jumblatt is a leader of the
Druze sect, an offshoot of the
Islamic sect which the Savior
is yet to come and that he will
be born of man.
I was led up three long
flights of stone steps and
taken into a large room with
straight-backed armchairs.
Jamblett walked into the
room followed by a strange
array of men, some in uni
form, some in Western style
suits, but most in native dress.
Jumblatt shook hands and
motioned me to a seat on his
left. The others sat around the
room, then one by one came
forward to speak in Arabic.
Jumblatt was holding court.
After 15 minutes Jumblatt
turned to me.
Marines Must Go
He is an ascetic type who
speaks accented but good Eng
lish. He once taught at the
Sorbonne in Paris.
I asked him what message
he had for the American peo
He said first the Marines
should go. Perhaps they were

helping preserve Lebanon's
independence and integrity.
he said. But the country must
work out its own internal af
fairs, he said.
.The rebels, Jumblatt said,
aia not want .Lebanon in
Gamal Abdel Nasser's United
Arab Republic camp nor in
Russia's, but they also did nol
want it occupied by Ameri
can troops.
I asked if his men would
fight the Americans.
Jumblatt said they did not
want to fight the Americans
but would do so if the Ma
rines came up into the moun
tains.
We talked for 20 minutes.
Then I rose to go. Jumblatt
shook my hand limply.
All the men sitting afound
the wall stood up and return
ed my farewell wave.

MAIL TRIBUNE, Mtdford, Oregon, Monday, July 28, 1MI 7
'Breakthrough' In Cancer Battle Said Imminent
Washington (UPD Dr.
Le Roy E. Burney, U.S. sur
geon general, says a "break
through is imminent" in the
battle against cancer.
Burney, head of the Public
Health Service, also urges all
Americans under 40 who have
not yet had Salk polio vac
cine shots to do so before the
polio season hits its peak.
Burney issued a statement
Sunday on polio. Later he
talked about the possibility of
cures for several types of can
cer "within a generation."
Voices Optimism
Whether the "imminent"
break-through on cancer
"means one year or five
years, I don't know," Burney
said. He voiced optimism "on
the basis of reports from the
National Institutes of Health
and from throughout the
country."
He said evidence has been
brought to light which may
pin the cause of some types of
cancer on viruses. If this
were true, he said, vaccines
and antibiotics would be of
help jn fighting the disease.
In his statement on polio,
Burney said there were 52
new paralytic cases reported
last week the, highest week
ly total so far this year and
two cases more in the com
parable week last year.
In spite of last week's rec
ord number, Burney said to
tal paralytic cases so far this
year were far below last'
year's total.
