because of a healthy rise in fac-
tory payrolls which more than
offset seasonal declines in wages
paid on construction jobs and on
the farm. '
And a gain in employment was
reported for March. All told, near-
ly 60% million Americans held
paying jobs last month—an in-
crease of 377,000 over the same
month last year. But total employ-
ment was still about two million
under the boom level of March
1953. Of more than ordinary sig-
cers more vulnerable to X-rays
than nearby healthy tissue.' Can-
cer cells have a bigger appetite
for this chemical, and thereby may
become an easier pushover for X-
rays. The drug has been given to
only six patients to far, and it’s
too early to assess results. Stent-
strom and Vermund told science
writers on an American Cancer
Society tour of research centers.
Third is evidence. from animal
tests, that X-rays hitting normal
tissues may make them more re-

CHICAGO (M—Conrad J. Moelich, 30, who says civilian life
down't agree’* with him, is back in military service—his fourth
enlistment since he was 17.
Moelich, who has been in service in the Coast Guard, Navy
and Air Corps, enlisted in the Marine Corps last week. His first
service was in the Coast Guard from 1942 to 1946. Three months
later he joined the Navy, leaving in February, 1948, as an air
corpsman. He enlisted in the Air Force in June, 1948 and was
discharged a technical sergeant a year ago.
Moelich said he thinks he always wanted to be a Marine, but
"it takes a long time to decide what you want."

MINNEAPOLIS I — Four new
steps in fighting cancers—three by
X-rays and one by a hormone—
were reported today by University
of Minnesota scientists.
One X-ray step has produced
some unexpectedly good results. It
employs the cobalt "bomb,”—a
chunk of radioactive cobalt only
as big as four silver quarters piled
atop one another. But it shoots out
X-rays equal to those from a three-
million-volt X-ray machine.
Two patients with widespread
cancers hit by the cobalt beam
are alive and apparently well a
year later, said. Dr. K. W. Sten-
strom and Dr. Halvor Vermund,
radiologists.
One young man had inoperable
cancer which had started in part
of the large intestine, then spread
to the liver, lung and neck. Co-

rate occasions was shot into his

For the answer to this- significant eM1
Hon—a question that affects each and
every one of us—Family Weekly called
on Dr. Loo Barnes, noted author and
economist. In the April 17 issue of your
colorgravure magazine. Dr. Barnes gives
Ms answer. He analyzes current business
conditions and comes up with an author-
itative economic forecast written in easy- .
to-undersland langvage. He discusses
employment, food and dething prices,
retail trade, production, the stock market.

industries for years to come.
Talks with Ford, scheduled to
start a few days later, might give
a better clue as to which way the
wind was blowing; Ford was con-
sidered the most likely target for
a strike. One thing was certain:
Auto production was due for a cut,
and a fairly sharp one, whether
the union called a strike or not.
And other industries would have
to keep the recovery rolling.
STEEL HIT
Steel. backbone of the economy,
already felt the impact. There
were increasing reports that auto
makers were cutting down on
purchases of body steel. Steel pro-
ducers were confident that other
big consumers would take up the
slack until the auto manufac-
turers started buying heavily again
for their 1956 models.
Curtailed auto manufacturing
would also put a big dent in boom-
ing sales of glass—now in short
supply as a result of unprecedent-
are piling up for the average
American family.'' • .
BRIGHTER SIDE
On the brighter side, the Com-
merce Department reported that
personal income of Americans in-
creased during February, chiefly
the Georgia, Atlanta and West
Point and the Western of Alabama,
nought to assess strike costs
against the 27 brotherhoods which
refused to cross picket lines of
nonoperating unions. The suit fixed
th strike costs at $88,000 a day. ,

of more than 50,000 railroad and

will be tremendous.
Although few accurate figures
are available, economic losses to
the public as well as the parties
involved could be counted in the
millions today as the widespread
walkoat went into its 27th day with
the outcome still in doubt
. Directly affected are an unde-
termined number of UM South-
ern Bell Telephone employes in
nine Southeastern states who are
members of the CIO Communica-
tions Workers of America; and a
great majority of employes of the
Louisville A Nashville. Chatta-
nooga & St. Louis railroads. •
Little progress has been made
in negotiations since the two
strikes began last March 14, but
today, there were two hopeful de-
velopments. Bell and union of-
ficials were ready to meet face
to feed across the bargaining ta-
ble for the first time in several
days.
In Washington, federal media
still held high hopes for 'settle-
ment of the railroad dispute.
Violence, cable cutting and other
progerty damage has marked the
telephone strike but Southern Bell
has continued to operate with
supervisory employes and claims
service is nearly normal. The tele-
phone strike, primarily. Involved a
company demand for a no-strike
. clause in a new contract.
Nonoperating employee of the
two railroads walked out in a dis-
pute over health and welfare bene-
fits. Operating employes refused
to cross picket lines and the sys-
tems virtually ar eparalyzed.
Cutting deepest into the econom-
ic life of the South is the railroad
strike. Lack of railroad cars has
idled nearly 14,000 Kentucky coal
miners whose wago loss is esti-
mated at $700,000 a week.
Some lumber workers also are
out of jobs and in Tennessee a
large feed manufacturing company
employing 250 shut down its plant
- when the strike started.
In Atlanta, railroad yards have
been shut by the strike and busi-
ness firms were feeling the pinch
on their flow-of commodities.
One of the major Industries of
Montgomery, Ala., cattle shipping,
was hard hit by the embargo on
rail shipments of cattle and perish-
ables. .
Revenue loss to the railroads,
likewise, is staggering. No figures
have been made available, but a
lawsuit filed in Atlanta includes
significant evidence on that point.

after it was swept there by the high winds that have
accompanied the storms hitting the area this season.

was re-authorized and re-establish-
ed during the Korean War.
Those advocating creation of a
State Guard now, because of the
present world turmoil, organized
a “State Guard Association of the
United States." They elected Brig.
Gen. Allen Rooke, deputy com-
mander of the Texas State Guard
Reserve, as president of the na-
tional association.
Peacoch and Hardin, represent-
ing Rooke. urged the House Armed
Services Committee to provide for
a State Guard in the legislation
they were considering to set up
the President's military reserve
program.
The State Guard would include
citizens not eligible or not then on
active duty with the armed forces.

WASHINGTON M_Two Texans
have been hero leading the fight
for re-establishment of State
Guards—militia which would take
over National Guard home-front
activities if the latter is called into
federal service.
Before congressional commit-
tees, in private conferences and
at a dinner the cause was pushed
by Col. Don Peacock of San An-
tonio. and Col Carl Hardin Jr,, of
Austin.
During the war, after the Nation-
al Guard was ordered into federal
service and blended in with regu-
lar fighting forces. Congress pass-
ed a law authorizirg creation of
State Guards. They filled domestic
needs normally handled by the
National Guard, such as quelling
prison riots, helping out in floods
and tornadoes and keeping ready
for handling disorders in event of
an enemy attack. - -
The authorization act expired
with the end of the war and the
State Guard dissolved, for under
normal conditions the National
Guard unit in each state is recog-
