News Director Ray Moore of
Atlanta’s WSB - TV walked off

ism excellence In the South for
his production of “The Search,”

Georgia. It premiered Sept. 8,
1967.

lion.
Labor Department
Suit Dismissed
NEWNAN, Ga. (UPI) — U.S.
District Judge Lewis R. Morgan
has dismissed a Labor Depart
ment suit against the Southwire
Co. of Carrollton pending the
payment of $8,051 in back salar-
ies to 17 employes.
The Labor Department had
charged the company with vio
lating the overtime compensa
tion provision of the Fair Labor
Standards Act.
‘Great Society’
Called Dream
COLUMBUS, Ga. (UPI) —The
national administration’s do
mestic programs have “fostered
strife, hatred and revolution,”
Gov. Lester Maddox charged
Tuesday night. By contrast,
Maddox said his own adminis
tration is “moving Georgia into
the highlands of progress.”
“Most Americans are now
convinced of the fact that the
‘Great Society’ is an illusive
dream which has turned into a
nightmare,” Maddox told an
annual joint meeting of five
ladies’ clubs.
But while attacking federal
programs and national leaders,
Maddox said his dedication to
campaign promises would give
Georgia “the mose progressive
four years the state had ever
known.”
Japan Trade
Conference Opens
ATLANTA (UPI) — A one
day conference on Trade With
Japan opens here today under

Commerce Department, the
United States - Japan Trade
Council, Japan Trade Organiza
tion, Georgia Ports Authority
and Atlanta Chamber of Com
merce.
Ambassador Says
Don’t Withdraw
ATLANTA (UPI) — Although
Denmark disagrees with the
United States over United Na
tions membership for Red
China, her ambassador to this
country feels it would be a
mistake for U.S. forces to with
draw from Vietnam.
Danish Ambassador Torben
Ronne also told the Atlanta
Press Club Tuesday his country
to continue as a mem
ber” of NATO because its part-
nership with the United States
in the alliance “strengthens our
mutual security.”
As for Vietnam, Ronne said
he felt “it wouldn’t be a solu
tion for the United States to pull
is troops from Vietnam.” He
also said Denmark would not
prefer a “non - settlement” of
the Pueblo incident in Korea.
Hawthorne Park
Discussed
ATLANTA (UPI) — Plans to
develop Georgia’s proposed
Hawthorne Caverns State Park
into one of the South’s major
tourist attractions will be an
nounced today during a meeting
at Georgia Tech.
Information officer Robert
Woodham of the State Planning
Bureau said four other south
west Georgia wonders would be
incorporated in the park’s de
velopment, including two water
falls, a disappearing stream
and historic Blowing Cave.
Woodham said the park would
be developed around Glory Hole
Caverns, said by cave explor
ers to be matchless among the
world’s foremost caverns.

the DOCTOR SAYS
Testing Drugs
Slow, Laborious
By WAYNE G. BRANDSTADT
From time to time some new
drug is hailed as a cancer cure.
So far, all such claims have
proved false and for a very
good reason. Cancer is not a
single disease and when a cure
is found, it will probably be ef
fective against only one or two
types of cancer. Some persons
have the mistaken idea that
doctors don’t want a cancer
cure and would try to discredit
one if it were found. This is the
sheerest nonsense as, whenever
a treatment of proven worth is
found for any disease, the doc
tors can’t wait to give it to
their patients. Some doctors
keep a list of patients with in
curable diseases and assure
them that as soon as any
worth-while drug is found that
might benefit them they will
call the patients in so that they
can get it without delay.
Doctors have already tried
a large number of new drugs
for such malignant conditions
as leukemia and Hodgkin’s di
sease which, even though they
are not curative, have given
the victims added years of com
parative contort. Those who say
that doctors will accept a
new drug only if it is discov
ered by another doctor forget
that doctors were quick to ac
cept reserpine derived from the
Rauqolfia of Hindu folk medi
cine and ephedrine from the un
schooled “medicine men” of
China.
At this very moment our
large drug houses are sending
explorers into remote lands to
learn the secrets of native herb
doctors and other primitive
healers.
Famous quacks often come
up with alleged cures for can
cer and other diseases. That
they are quacks is shown by
the fact that when they die
their secret dies with them,
whereas, then a worthy medi
cal discovery is made, the dis
coverer gives it freely to the
world. To cite a single exam
ple, Sir Alexander Fleming
gave the world the life-saving
antibiotic, penicillin.
One of the difficulties in test
ing any new drug in human
cancer patients is the fact that
such a long time (at least five
years) must elapse after an ap
parent cure before one can say
that the danger of a recur
rence has passed. Another dis-

flculty is that a few victims of
cancer succeed in building up
an immunity to their disease.
If this event coincides with the
testing of a worthless drug the
drug may get the credit for a
cure it did not accomplish or
even contribute to.
Modern drugs are not first
tested on cultures of cancer
cells. If the drug shows prom
ise, it is tested on mice with
different types of malignancy.
If these tests appear to be
successful, tests with very
small doses in human subjects
must be made to see whether
the drug is too toxic to normal
cells. If not, then and only then
can it be tried on patients with
cancer.
Prostitution
Booms, Matldox Says
ATLANTA (UPI) — Gov.
Lester Maddox says prostitu
tion is flourishing and commun
ists are recruiting in Georgia.
Maddox said Tuesday that a
crime syndicate’s southwide
prostitution ring, which involves
law enforcement officers and
officials at every level of gov
ernment, is under investigation.
Preliminary reports, he said,
indicate the ring is “widespread
and goes into other states.”
The governor also said the
Students for a Democratic So
ciety, which he called a com
munist front organization, is
also recruiting in Georgia.
As for racial agitation, Mad
dox said the Student Non-Vio
lent Coordinating Committee is
recruiting at predominantly
Negro Georgia universities and
plans “a 10-day period of vio
lence across the nation in
April.”
He said SNCC’s strategy in
cludes attacks on police sta
tions, government offices and
private property.
