FlUiSIS BEATEN '5 (Continued From Page One) never develop in the human body unless they leave it for a time to pass inrougn a mosquuo. Hence, the adult worms are un able to reproduce themselves in the body, and they do not ac cumulate. Those which are there are slowly destroyed. In an area such as this, where there are no susceptible mosquitoes, infec tion does not occur. Further more, marines here have been known to have so few filaria in their bodies that even though there were susceptible mosqui toes here, they would not spread infection. No Elephantiasis In all the thousands of cases of marines with filariasis, not a ' single case of elephantiasis hat occurred. That seems to be con fined to the natives in areas where re-infection occurs innum erable times. The filariasis scare has thus vanished. Marines who contract ed the disease are living normal lives. Many of them are married and have families. Hundreds of them have left here for full duty .status. There are still filariasis cases, but a lot more is Known about it now, and it is no longer a major medical problem in the marine corps. That's only part of the story of the first year's operation of the Marine Barracks, which has demonstrated the value of a new conceDt in military medicine, based on the principle that men can proceed with post-war and war training while convalescing from certain afflictions, and be better off for it NEWTON'S CATS Sir Isaac Newton, English mathematician, cut two .holes in his door for his cats: a large one for the mother and a small one for the kittens.

He was at one time held prisoner at Hoten,- Manchukuo. but is now at Osaka, it is understood. The broadcast carried the fol lowing message: "Dear folks. I am happy to take this opportunity to send this radio letter and let you know I am in fair health and spirits. I have been anxiously awaiting word from you all since I have been a prisoner but I have failed to get even one letter so far. That's a long time to go without word from home. I did receive one parcel from one while I was in Hoten though. It was like manna from heaven. Please send letters and narcels with all my love and (hope?) I am looking forward to next Christmas with you. Your son, Robert." The provost marshal general's office advised that this broad cast supplements all previous reports.

More than a year ago the British government announced that British subjects who had worked with the enemy would be returned to Great Britain for trial. Obtains Review Associate Justice Robert H. Jackson of the U. S. supreme court, chief United States coun sel for the prosecution of war crimes, went to work immedi ately to obtain an up-to-the-minute review of the progress in indicting prominent nazis upon his arrival in London from Paris. The British foreign office ex pressed the hope that Jackson's visit would result in rapid prog ress in the discussions to estab lish machinery for the trial of major war criminals. Prime Minister Churchill an nounced in commons the ap pointment of Attorney General Sir David Maxwell Fyfe as the British representative of the big power board of prosecution for leading nazis. Sir David will serve with Jackson and presum ably with representatives of Rus sia and France who have not yet been named. Churchill said that the trials "ought not to be proceeded with until they are properly arranged and the method is agreed upon between the great powers."

Gradual Program "Controls will be relaxed just as soon as resources be come available." the agency said, ,,but relaxation will have to be gradual." The move was in line with numerous steps taken within the last month in the field of consumer goods. Already WPB has ruled that 200,000 passenger cars may be made in 1945 if the automotive industry can find materials without priority help; sewing machines and typewriter makers have received the same go ahead, but with no restraint on volume of production except ability to locale materials. Other prime consumer Items notably refrigerators and washing machines are con sidered so urgently needed that WPB has offered priority help for their manufacture. Thus 700.000 washers and 530.000 re frigerators are assured this year, plus as many more as can be built without priority aid. local residents are asked to con tribute two tons of tin to fill it before it is sent on its way south.
