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."

Gianfraco Laudoni told detectives

Drug Gone
a lot of misery out of pregnancy,
including morning sickness.
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

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.
