(AP Wirephoto) Cancer Cure Before Moon Trip: Doctor MONTREAL (CP)--Man will have the answers to the cause, prevention and cure of cancers before he gets to the moon, a leading American cancer spe- cialist forecast Tuesday. | Dr. Jacob Gershon-Cohen, ra-| diologist at the Aibert Einstein Medical Centre in Philadelphia, said fast - moving discoveries about the role of viruses in can- cer will produce "positive re- sults quicker than we get to the moon." Noting that space programs call for a trip to the moon within a decade; he said science will know how to prevent and treat virus cancers before then and use of vaccine and treat- ment drugs will follow. | Colleagues on a panel at the annual congress of the Ameri- ean Association for the Ad- vancement of Science--men in- volved in research into cancer viruses -- were more cautious than Dr. Gershon-Cohen. "We have a long way to go," said microbiologist Lud wick Gross of the Veterans Admin- istration Hospital in the Bronx, N.Y. "There is no cancer vac- cine around the corner. It is extremely important not to in- vite the hopes of the public." HAS NO PROOF However, he added that he believes all leukemia is caused by viruses, although he has no proof. "I think we'll crack it eventually,"" Dr. Gross said. Dr. Joseph Beard, microbiol- ogist of Duke University who is studying chicken tumors and viruses, said there have been great advantages but "there is a little bit too much enthusi- asm about this thing." Dr. Beard said he and others involved in studies of the virus- cancer relation once were scien- tific outcasts. Now the pendu- other types of cancer in ani- mals and humans. The evidence is that the vi- ruses are present in all or most people in varying degrees and are triggered to produce can- cers by other factors such as inheritance or a disorder that upsets the body chemistry. STUDY ENCOURAGING Dr. Gershon - Cohen said the study of viruses is the most en- couraging avenue in understand- ing cancer. Discoveries on the structure and action of DNA and RNA--the virus centre-- "are probably more significant, if less appreciated by the pub- lic, than the unlocking of atomic energy." Once viruses. are unmistak-| ably tagged with responsibility) for cancers, "'it is natural to fur-| ther predict eventual trial of| vaccines for the prevention of cancer,' Dr. Gershon - Cohen said. Various vaccines would have to be developed to deal) jwith the differing types of can-) jeer, he suggested, and some are) being tried on animals now. "Biochemical studies of nu- cancers at the Sloan-Kettering Institute in New York and Park Memorial Institute in New York and Park Memorial Institute in Buffalo, N.Y. New evidence showing rela tions between' viruses involved in body inflammation and those connected with tumors support the value of a hew device the thermograph, for detecting can- 'cer, Dr. Gershon-Cohen said. The thermograph measures temperature variations through- out the body. Pinpointing an area hotter than surrounding tissue would indicate inflamma- tion, a possible precurser of cancer. 4 Killed In Plane Smash NEW BOSTON, Mich, (AP)-- A C-46 cargo plane crashed four miles southwest of Detroit's Metropolitan airport while at- cleic acid (DNA and RNA) could lead to the discovery of means of miraculous in the con- | tempting an instrument landing in foggy weather today, killing four persons. NEW DELHI (AP) -- Hun- dreds of Communists through- out India were arrested before dawn today. Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri's government said the Communists had been "'prepar- ing for violence" and 'acting as a fifth column'--apparently meaning they had been 'work- ing for China. The government, which faces a close election contest with the Communists in Kerala State, arrested Communist party lead- ers in closely co-ordinated raids all across the country. The leader of the pro-China Communist party, E. M. Namboodiripad, accused the government of paving the way for the elections in Kerala Feb. 15. Top officials in Shastri's gov- erning Congress party have said privately in recent weeks ce wage , Hundreds Of Reds Arrested In India tle chance of defeating the Communists in Kerala, a polit- ically turbulent state chronic- ally hit by critical food short- ages. TOPPLED GOVERNMENT Defections from _ Shastri's party enabled the Communist- léd opposition to topple his state g0 fent and in September New Delhi took power over all the state's affairs. More than 100 pro - Chinese Communists were arrested in Trivandrum, capital of Kerala. About 106 aisc were arrested in Andhra Pradesh State on the s,|southwest coast. Five pro-Chinese Communist party politburo members were arrested at Trichur in Kerala,} where they were attending a party meeting. One of them, A. K. Gopalan, is a member of Parliament and that the prime minister had lit- pro-Chinese party faction's par- liamentary leader. Other police raiding parties struck in snowbound Jammu, in the northern state of Kash- mir; in the city of Jaipur, on the edge of. the Great Indian Desert in the West, and in Cal- cutta in the east. Until recent weeks, the polit- ical strength of the pro-China Communists had been reduced by their bitter argument with the numerically stronger pro- Soviet faction of the party. But the two factions had be- gun moving toward co-opera- tion in the election against the ;government. Today's arrests |appeared aimed at breaking the back of any unified Red cam- |paign. The arrests were made under catch-all legislation called the "Defence of India Rules," emergency legislation enacted during the 1962 Chinese-Indian| border war.
