NEWS, Klamath Fills, Oregon Thalidomide But Suffering Continues By United Press International Just a year after Europe's great "thalidomide scare, tight ened drug laws and the passage of time appear to have ended a tragic harvest o f cruelly de formed babies. But sorrow, sulfering and bit terness linger. In Europe, it is estimated about 6.000 infants were born be tween 1958 and the end of li2 as phocomcliacs, or "seal ba les." These children, many of them, came into the world with no arms, or flipper - like appen dages where their arms were supposed to be, or with other: horrible deformities. Exact official figures are lack ing, but the drug thalidomide was blamed for many of the de formed births to mothers who had taken the German-discovered and developed drug during preg nancy. Tile greatest damage was done in West Germany where, accord ing lo the Federal Health Minis try, about 5,000 "thalidomide ba bies were born up to the end of last year, of whom 3,184 are still living. The drug first was introduced : West Germany in 1957 and was used on a wide scale. Un der a variety of names "conter- gan" "Distaval" and Softenon were among the best known itl spread to markets throughout most of Europe and to other parts of the world. It never was marketed without prescription In the United States where approval was withheld by the federal Drug and Health Ad ministration. But it could bo ob tained by Americans from Eur ope. One result was the widely- publicized case of Mrs. Sherrl Finkbinc, 30 - year old Phoenix Arizona, housewife who flew to Sweden last August to undergo legal abortion there because she had taken thalidomide dur ing pregnancy and refused to risk having a malformed child. Thalidomide was first produced by Chemie Gruncnthal, one of Germany's most highly respected chemical firms, in 1953. After exhaustive tests It was approved by official clinics and placed on the market in 1957. Its attributes were remarkable. It was a high ly effective sedative that could be taken with no known after effects; it was an effective slecp- mduccr. i And, it showed later, when tak en by prospective mothers it took Yard Asks Interpol Aid In Finding 'The Weasel' LONDON (UP1 (-Scotland Yard asked the police in Ilaly and Spain Saturday 4n track down a thrill-seeking British race track driver known as "the weasel" as a major suspect in the $7.3 mil. lion robbery of a royal mail train. Tho Yard dispatched an urgent message through Interpol, the in ternational police organization, to the police in Madrid and Home requesting officers there to find and arrest "the weasel" 28-year-old Hoy John James and two oilier suspects, Bruce Richard Heynolds. 41, and James E. White. 4.1. Reynolds is an antique dealer. White owns a London coffee house. When last reported seen, James was driving a souped-up Brabham rord at a race track in Good wood. England. That was last Thursday when lie was clocked it 05.79 miles per hour during trial heals for a race scheduled Saturday. Track officials said James drove away Thursday in anollier sports car and was believed headed north. They said he bought the racing Ford for $5,600 and also owned an expensive Jaguar. One of his racing friends said. "Roy lives for kicks. He gets them by moving fast. He can get out of a tricky situation quicker than anyone I know. He never loses his nerve, lie likes danger."

But by lOfil medical men al ready were having serious sec ond thoughts about this new 'wonder drug." As early as the autumn of I960, German doctors were disturbed by a sudden in crease in deformed births in the country. By November, 1961, Dr. Widikund l.cnz of Hamburg, a specialist ill childbirth and child care, thought he knew the rea son. On Nov. 16, 11, he tele phoned the Grunenthal firm at its head office in Stolbcrg and expressed his fears. He urged the company to withdraw tonler gan," the name under which it was soid in Germany, from the market. On Nov. 19, Gruncnthal with drew it. In rapid succession other coun tries withdrew the various thalid omide drugs from their markets. Then the loll in malformed ba bies was counted. In Britain there were no over-all official figures but competent eslimates ran as high as 800 "ical babies born before the drii.j was with held; 53 were officially con firmed. Sweden counted 153 de formed births up to the end of 1962. with 111 confirmed as born to "thalidomide mothers. Hol; land had 16. Norway 19. Austria 7. Switzerland "possibly" 10. Bel gium 26.

Interment will be in Lin k ville Cemetery, peared to have knowledge about the mail theft. The .police said they were told James may have come to Rome a few days ago in a French car with Rome license plates. The same bulletin Scotland Yard sent to Rome also went to the po lice in Ireland where (wo men resembling White and Reynolds were reported to have been seen aboard a ferry crossing the Irish Sea. Police in Dublin received an an onymous tip that some ot the money taken in the robbery was sent to Ireland in parcels of old clothing. And in Dover on the English Channel, another anonymous in formant told the police that large number of five pound notes would be smuggled out of Eng land Saturday on a ship headed for France. Police there joined customs of ficials in checking passengers boarding channel ferries. Scotland Yard Saturday charged an eighth person in connection with the robbery and announced that a total of $768,040 of the loot has been recovered. The latest suspect. Robert Wil liam Pelham. 26. of London, was booked at tho Aylesbury police station, operations center for the investigation, with receiving $1, 542.800 of the stolen monev.
