Senators
Haggle Over
hrm Bill
WASHINGTON CP The political.
ly explosive farm bill, pushed back
on the Senate docket again under
disputed circumstances, may be
the final major business for the
adjournment-bound Congress.
Ecu. Aiken R-Vt) said today he
has no Intention of trying to 'get
Senate action on the farm measure
until "next midweek, probably
Wednesday." Aiken, chairman of
the senate Agriculture committee,
added in an interview:
"All I want to make certain is
that if there is no farm legislation
at this session that I'm not going
to take the rap for it."
Aiken smiled away a blistering
statement issued last night by Sen
ate Democratic leader Lyndon B.
Johnson of Texas which branded
as "simply . . . not true" Aiken's
assertion that Democrats forced a
delay in Senate action on the farm
bill.
Aiken called reporters to his of
fice early yesterday and told them
the Democratic leadership had
served notice on him not to bring
up the farm bill until next Tuesday
or Jaler.
Aiken said this might prevent
any farm legislation because of
plana to end the session next Satur
day, whether Congress will meet
(hat target for adjournment is
questionable.
Late in the day, Johnson fired
back with a statement that Aiken
had engaged In "distortions and
Inaccuracies." Referring to the all
night session the night before, John
son said it was "the kind of mis
understanding that can arise when
senators are too tired and weary
to think clearly."
If prospects for a farm bill arc
"dimming," as Aiken said, John
son said this resulted from "the
artificially Imposed deadline of
July 31st for congressional adjourn
ment , . , Imposed by the Repub
lican leadership Itself."
Johnson added that the "Demo
crats are ready to consider farm
legislation at any reasonable
time.-
Johnson said "It is no secret'
that Secretary of Agriculture Ben
son "would be perfectly happy" If
a flexible price support program,
enacted in 1948-40 but never put
into operation, became law through
inaction of congress this session.
It will take effect If no new law is
enacted.
Aiken's committee, by an 8-7
vote, rejected President Elsenhow
er's proposal for a flexible price
support program and instead urged
a oneyear extension of rigid sup
ports on live basic crops that have
operated since World War II.
Aiken Is seeking to overturn this
decision by his committee and en
act a flexloln price system similar
io one already voted by the House.

Scientists
Launch War
On Cancer
By ALTON L. BLAKESLEE
SAO PAULO. Brazil 11 Scien
tists from 54 nations on both sides
of the Iron Curtain launched a
new Joint assault today against
cancer, which kills someone in the
world every 10 seconds.
The nations include Russia, the
United States, Britain, Korea, Po
land, Brazil, Chile, Greece. Hun
garyIn fact .almost any country
you can name. -
Nearly 1,000 physicians, chem
ists, physicists, biologists and
otiier scientists are conferring here
' and exchanging their latest knowl
edge to mobilize better answers
to the death and suffering from
cancer. .
Their meeting ground is the
Sixth International Cancer Con
gress, which opened today in this
booming Brazilian metropolis. The
congress last met in Paris in 1950.
In the next week the delegates
will listen to some 500 reports deal
ing with treatment, detection, new
scientific research and public ed
ucation concerning cancer.
They also will meet Informally,
seeking from or telling to other
men and women scientists the find
ings which might supply keys to
the answers they and the people of,
their nations want.
The cancer congress was formal
ly' opened this morning by Dr. An
tonio Prudente, the congress pres
ident and head of the Brazilian
Cancer Institute: '
About three million persons over
the world fall victim to cancer
annually, he said in his opening
address.
Dr. Prudente said new promises
from research in various fields of
fer great hope, and each new fact
learned Is potentially useful in
solving the riddle.
"I feel sure," he said, "this con
zress. which brings together men
of all races, religions and political
creeds, shall fight for the same
Ideal" the ultimate triumph over
cancer.
Prior to the opening session. Dr.
George T, Pack, of New York's
Memorial Hospital, told yesterday
of a bold new operation to cure
cancer of the liver. In some cases
he said, the whole tight lobe of the
liver 75 tp 80 per cent ot the or
ganhad been removed by new
surgical techniques. After such
operations, Dr. Pack said, the left
lobe regenerates and expands un
til the liver becomes nearly its
nrlcrlnal size.
Six of these operations have
been performed In the past two
vears, he said. The first patient
to undergo the new surgery is liv
ing and well today.

opportunity for business.
Rut they're so busy with do
mestic and other export commit
ments most are forced to pass up
the chances of new profits.
For five weeks now, striking
woodworkers in Washington, Ore
gon and Calitornia have cut
United States output of softwoods
by a crippling one-third.
For a month now. orders for
B.C. lumber have poured into mills
and wholesalers here from the
eastern United States.
In many cases, however, the
urtrentlv-wanted cedar, fir. and
hemlock has Just not been avail
able. One reason for the short supply
on hand is a late start in interior
cutting because of prolonged snow
run-offs in recent weeks.
And much of the lumber that Is
cut and boomed is earmarked for
earlier overseas orders.
Already, increased sales to the
eastern U.S. have been estimated
nt five per cent and lumbermen
here are confident the percentage
will go higher yet.
Employment in the forests is
higher than this time last year.
Mills report production now is in
full swing and likely to stay. that
way with the present firm mar
ket. With no early settlement likely
in tlx Pacific Northwest, lumber
men here say the U.S. wholesalers'
position will become increasingly
desperate.
They point to booming construc
tion and a congressional selection
with housing one of the big issues.
Retail yards are also clamoring
for lumber supplies.
Some lumbermen are forecast
ing B.C.'s best year in the timber
business for some time if the U.S.
strike drags on much longer.
