Rushed to the Wilmington Me

what physicians described as an

A younger brother, Irenee, and

LONDON Wl Even' Conservative
newspapers larr.hasted Prime Min
ister Churchill today for his charge
wai uiement Atuee a Labor eov
eminent threw away Britain's war
ume exenange oi atomlo secrets
with the United States.
The nominally independent but
usually pro-Conservative Times of
ixuiaon said yesterday's House of
Commons debate on the hydrogen
bomb "degenerated into a sterile,
angry and pitiful party wrangle-
ana uie responsiDUlty was the
t-rime Minister's."
me Liberal, middle-road News
Chronicle said the showing of the
79-year-old government chief in the
House may foreshadow his early
resignation irom ofilce, something
many observers have predicted
wouia nappen tnis year.
PARTISAN FIGHT
The bitter partisan fight in the
wake of sir Winston's charge gen
erally obscured the action of the
House, which on a voice vote
caned on Churchill to take "lmme'
diate initiative" in seeking fpn.
to-face conference wKh Soviet Pre
mier Malenkov and President
Eisenhower. But the Laborltes did
not challenge the government's
stand that the timing of such an
approach should be left to it.
Churchill put the House in' an
uproar with hla charge that it was
the "responslbllty or misfortune"
of Atlee's 1845-51 government that
a nitnerto secret 1943 agreement
for British-American atomic coo it
eration was no longer in effect.
QUEBEC CONFERENCE
Under the accord, reached nt
their Quebec conference in August
1943, Churchill and the late Presi
dent Roosevelt set un the two.nn.
tlon agency for development of the
atomic bomb and agreed that
neither would use atomic weapons
against a third nation without the
other's consent. .
Attlee. seething with aneer and
backed by a continuous Labor
chorus for Churchill to "with
draw!" "resign!.", replied that the
wartime agreement had been ter
minated by Congress' adoption in
1946 of the McMahon Act, which
forbids sharing of U. S. atomic se
crets with foreign governments.
ATOMIC LAW
Churchill snapped back that the
act's autnor, the late Sen. Brien
McMahon (D-Conn), had told him
later that the atomic secrets law
would not have been written had
he known of the secret agreement.
Attlee, Churchill Implied, should
have let McMahon know about the
agreement.
In Washington, the White House
confirmed that the secret' agree
ment had been made in 1943 but
emphasized it is "not in effect at
the present time."
The Conservative Dally Tele
graph called it "a pity" that
Churchill "should have tried to fix
the blame on Mr. Attlee" for post
war japsing oi tne Brltlsh-Amer
lean atomlo cooperation.

Track Boycott
Not Backed
PORTLAND Un One faction ot
the Oregon Thoroughbred Breeders
Assn. is not supporting a threat
ened boycott of Oregon horse race
tracks, the State Racing Commis
sion was told Monday.
And those who threatened the
boycott failed to show up to press
their charges. .
Oscar Butler, a Cresham horse
breeder, said a group he represent
ed wanted to race their horses on
Oregon tracks.
Butler made his remarks at a
meeting called by the commission
to hear any complaints from breed
ers. Earlier Joseph Yoerger of Sandy,
president of the breeders' group
said the organization would boy
cott all Oregon tracks unless the
commission met certain demands.
These demands were not made
public, but it was believed the
breeders wanted the commission
to fire steward Cecil L. Edwards
and Frank Clark, the placing
Judge.
Yoerger said he would not make
any public accusations and did sot
appear at the meeting.
Or. Frank Menne, commission
chairman, reported he had been
advised by William P. Kyne, gen
eral manager of the Portland
Meadows track, that the spring
meet would open on schedule May
12. Earlier Kyne said that If the
breeders boycotted the track, quar
ter horse races would be run.

Decision On
Cancer Said
Tough One
Br FRANK CAREY
Associated Press Science Reporter
CHICAGO tV-Should a doctor
"tell" a patient if he has cancer
or should he hide the information
from him?
A amall group of doctors, Inter
viewed separately and at random
today at the .annual meeting of
the American College of Physi
cians, were agreed that there's
"no set answer" to the question,
admittedly one of the toughest
Uwy have to face In practice.
The decision largely depends,
they said, -on the emotional make
up of the patient and each case
has to be handled individually.
But, In general, according to
most of the doctors:
1. If the patient Is an emotion
ally stable type who can "take it,
then tell him.
2. If he's the type who might
"go to pieces" emotionally, don't
tel him. As one doctor put it, tell'
Ing such a person he has cancer
might even lead to suicide.
And one of the doctors said it's
well to "Individualize" not only for
people who have an incurable can
cer, but also for those who might
have a cancerposslbly curable by
surgery, X-ray or radium.
"The very word 'cancer' still
scares some people," said Dr.
George Miller of Long Beach,
N. Y.. adding that people of that
type should not be told what they
have even though the particular
cancer might be and actually is
cured.
A compilation of the ideas of the
doctors on why people should be
told, if at all possible, is as
follows:
(1) The personal desire of every
one to arrange his own financial
and other matters: 2 the possi
bility that the patient, knowing his
time was relatively short, might
want to do something he wanted
to do all his life, like take a long
trip, or even, as one doctor put it,
"be like a friend ot mine who. on
learning he had an incurable can
cer, decided he'd go back and fin
ish out law school'l; and 13) the
possibility that the patient might
wish to provide an example of
quiet courage that would be help
ful to others in time of adversity.

Actor Missed Plain U.S.
Food During Europe Stay
By BOB THOMAS
HOLLYWOOD Wl What does an
American miss most alter a yeiu
and a half in Europe?
"Some good, simple food," re
niix: Kirk Douglas. "In France,
h, i snent much of my. time,
you can get the most elegant food
in the world. But after a while you
yearn tor a well-prepared, plain
dish sucn as you can oniy ci u
the United States. J"0l roaav,
mined beef and cabbage. A ham
burger and milk shake. How, I
could have used someinuig us,c
thatl"
Douglas frankly admits that he
went abroad to profit from the tax
exemption lor Americans who
lived abroad 18 months. He didn't
come back with as much pront as
he had honed lor: Congress
stenned in and changed the law,
Bui he does think that the Jaunt
was worthwhile in other respects,
The actor made three pictures
abroad: "The Juggler," "Act or
Love" and "Ulysses." He toured
throughout Israel, Italy, France,
Switzerland, Germany and Eng
land. He met royalty and the heads
of state. He feels that tile whole
experience caused him to grow a
an actor and as an individual.
But most of all. It threw a new
light on his native land.
"You miss the things you have
always taken for granted in this
country," he observed. "For in
stance, when you're in Europe for
a while, you almost forget that the
bathroom is a well established in
stitution.
'When you come back here, you
get a different impression Just
from seeing the faces ot the people.
Americans seem so much health
ier, cleaner and happier. I guess
it's because of our standard of
living."
He added that a trip abroad
made him again appreciate the
American success story, of which
his own life is a notable example.
He was born Issur Dsnielovitch in
Amsterdam, N. Y. His parents,
who also had six daughters, had
emigrated from Russia.
"II they had stayed there. I
would have been a peasant," Tie
reflected. "I realized in Europe
