MONDAY, JULY 9fi i954 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE THREB New Type Cigarette Proposed By ALTOV L BLAKESLEE SAO PAULO. Brazil A try t making cigarettes safe from any threat of heart disease and cancer was proposed today by Dr. E. Cuyler Hammond of Vale Uni versity. . The answer, he said in a paper for the sixth International Cancer Congress here, could be to develop hew types of strains of cigarette tobacco free of the agent or agents which some scientists suspect may be causing or contributing to heart trouble and cancer. This might be accomplished In two years, but it might take, as many as seven, the specialist said. Hammond Is a biometrician at Yale and also director of statistical Wsearch for the American Cancer J Society. He and Dr. Daniel Horn , reported last month that men aged 50 to 70. who smoke a pack of cigarettes daily are about twice as likely to die of heart trouble or i cancer as all types of nonsmokers. j Smoking a pipe or cigars seems J not to carry much if any risks, said Hammond, a pipe smoker himself. , The danger from cigarettes, he went on, could be in the special J types of tobacco which have been i developed for cigarettes. These tobaccos, he speculated, 1 could contain one or more chem ; icals which adversely .affect the i heart, blood vessels, lungs or other tissues of some people. Prom the viewpoint of the pub lic, "the happiest solution is to make smoking safe," Hammon de clared. Development of a "harmless . strain of tobacco plant" would be more practical, he asserted, "than to use a highly toxic strain and : then attempt to remove the harm ful. Ingredients from the tobacco by chemical means or from the smoke by a filter or condenser." He said the chemical 'composi tion varies considerably in differ ent types of tobacco, even in dif ferent batches of the same general type. Guardsmen Raid City P HEN IX CITY, Ala. OT Nation al Guardsmen and state troopers turned their attention to the no torious bridge area here yesterday In the second consecutive raid on Phenix City vice dens. Hundreds of spectators watched as the militia added to a growing pile of confiscated gambling equip ment, weapons and narcotics. The martial law order issued by Gov, Gordon Persons Thursday di rected that all. private, citizens as well as- police officers turn in all llrearms and other weapons. The military took over all law enforcement after the governor's unprecedented proclamation de clared that Russell County officers were either "unwilling or unable" to enforce the crackdown brought on by the slaying of Albert L. Pat terson, "Alabama's Incoming attor ney general. The Montgomery Advertiser yes terday quoted Russell Circuit so licitor Arch Ferrell as saying that he is "the prime suspect" but de nying he "either pulled the trigger or knows who pulled the trigger" when Patterson was murdered In an alley June 18. Ferrell has been relieved of all official duties in Russell County and is under indictment by a Bir mingham grand jury on vote fraud charges.

Runoff Election Required After Close Texas Primary By WILBUR MARTIN DALLAS, Tex. Wl Gov. Allan Shivers, who led Texas Democrats' bolt to Republican Dwight D. El senhower in 1952, apparently faces a runoff election In his bid for an unprecedented third term. His opponent: Ralph Yarborough champion of the "Loyalists" who stuck with Democrat Adlal Steven son In the presidential race. Unofficial returns from Satur day's first Democratic primary gave the encumbent Shivers a 17,188 lead over yarborough, not enough in the four-man race to avoid an Aug. 28 second primary. Yarborough,- SI, who had con demned Shivers breakway from the party in 1952, predicted vic tory for himself Aug. 28. "The Democrats of Texas," he said. will vote to regain control of their party." Shivers appeared equally con fident. "I welcome the opportunity to continue the fight for Texas," he said. "We will keep running a good, hard, clean fight in this run off and with the help of the people of Texas we will win it." A runoff election is required when no candidate has a clear majority over all others. Arlon B. (Cyclone) Davis and J. J. Holmes polled 2.72 per cent of the vote tabulated thus far by the unofficial Texas -..Election Bureau and that was apparently enough to force a runoff between the two top men Some 60,000 to 80,000 votes were still out. Democratic nomination in the past has virtually assured election. A record 1,273,100 votes bad been tabulated by last night. Shivers had 627,736; Yarborough, 610,578; Holmes, 19,115; Davis, 15,671. Texas Republicans who held their fourth primary in history Saturday voted In small numoers. No count was made since the can didates were unopposed. The bitter struggle between the conservatives and liberals shown in the governor's race over shadowed the sweeping victories of Senate Minority Leader Lyndon B. Johnson and House Minority Lead er Sam Rayburn and the crumbling of the power of south Texas politi cal boss George B. Parr. Johnson won nomination for a second term and Rayburn for his 22nd. Johnson had 818,216 votes to 318,004 for State Rep. Dudley Dougherty. Rayburn defeated A.G. McRae 29.520 to 9,950. Incumbents generally piled up Impressive leads In the Demo cratic primary. But Rep. Wingate Lucas lost the 12th (Port Worth District) to Weatherford Mayor Jim Wright. Wright had 26.080 votes to 17,702 for Lucas.

The proposal, made yesterday by the ABA's Commi'tee on American Citizenship, will come before the association's House of Delegates during Its annual convention Aug. 16-20 in Chicago. The report of the committee, headed by U.S.' Judge Walter M. Bastlan of Washington, D.C. states: "The dangers of communism could be readily understood if pro perly taught, and it would be of great value to the youth of our country if they could be adequately shown the differences between the theory and practices of commu nism and the theory and practices of the government of the United States under our Constitution." Communist Vietminh Hit Below Cease-Fire Line SAIGON, Indochina W Vietminh forces stabbed southward in Viet Nam over the weekend, striking far below the dividing line set in the Imminent cease-fire. The new attack, 180 miles north cast of Saglon, came as Feiplng radio trumpeted a pledge by Red Vletmlnh chief Ho Chi Minn to "liberate" the lower half of the partitioned Viet Nam before It for mally passes Into Vietminh hands tomorrow under the Geneva agree ment,, the French got ready to evacuate up to one million civilians and fighting men. The giant opera tion is set to begin Wednesday. A French high command spokes man said tile rebel attack in the South began Saturday. He said the Vletmlnh struck at Nha Trang, on the China Sea coast. Rebel com mandos sabotaged several bridges In Nha Trang after Vietminh artil lery had bombarded the coastal town's defenses. JULY VACATION SPECIAL!

Other Vletmlnh forces brought pressure on Cheo Reo, a post 60 miles southwest of Qui Nhon on central Viet Nam's plateau. Oen. Paul Ely. French commander in chief In Indochina, warned the re bels to stop or lace mass air re taliation. The stepup of fighting In the South, just as the cease-fire is about to go Into effect, appeared base on a Vletmlnh desire to show Their strength to communities which will not be under their control. Pelplng radio has broadcast statements by both Ho and Vlet mlnh Oen. Vo Nguyen Clap to the effect that' South Viet Nam was only temporarily in French bands, regardless of the cease-fire. Ho was quoted as saying, "The demarcation line does not mean the political and territorial border line. North, central and south Viet Nam are Inseparable parts of our nation's territory. We assure the people of each region that they will be liberated." Jacques Compatn, French civil ian director general In North Viet Nam, said he hoped to fly out 300 French civilians and MO Viet namese Wednesday. By mid-August, he expects the operation to hit high gear with about 1,000 fly ing out daily and another 4.000 a day going by ship from Haiphong, 65 miles east of Hanoi, to Saigon, 700 miles southward. Evacuation of the Hanoi area must be completed within 80 day after the July 37 cease-fire. Mil itary unite can remain in Haip hong up to 300 days, Tb cease-fire will be supervised by a three-nation commission Indian, Communist Poland and Canada. India has accepted chair manship of the commission. Feip lng radio announced last night Poland also had agreed to serve on the group. As the day of evacuation ap proached, both sides stepped up their propaganda battle for more than a million Roman Catholics living in the North. There were claims and denials that Red sym pathisers already are persecuting Catholics In Red River delta re cently abandoned to the rebels. The Vietnamese hope to persuade Catholics In the delta to migrate south, where they presumably would furnish a solid bloc of votes In future elections provided by the cease-fire.
