Preparing To Graft New Leg On Girl LONDON (UPI) - The London Daily Herald reported today from Moscow that a Russian surgeon is preparing to graft a new right leg on a 20-year-old girl in the first such operation in history. Herald reporter John Mossman identified the surgeon as Dr. Vladimir Demikhov, who previously won headlines by successfully grafting the head of a small dog onto another, creating a twoheaded animal. He quoted Demikhov as saying: "I can now take the limb from a person who has died and transplant it on to a living person. The girl is my first patient.” The girl was described as a typist who recently lost a leg when she was hit by a train. Mossman quoted Demikhov as i saying, “She is pretty and when I have patched her up there should be a queue of young men waiting to marry her.” Dr. Demikhov was quoted as saying he was “ready to operate tomorrow” but there were some "administrative matters” to be cleared first. Mossman, who said he interviewed Demikhov at his Moscow research laboratory, described the grafting procedure as follows: "First the professor has to find • limb from a newly dead person of about the same age as the person undergoing the operation. For up to six months the patient will feel nothing from the new limb—until the nerves and tiny blood vessels have grown-again.” Also quoted to the effect that he could join two living human beings together for certain types of surgery“Say a boy needs an operation, but is too weak to undergo it,” Mossman quoted Demikhov. “I can now join him by veins to his father for a certain period of time. The father’s heart and lungs will keep the boy alive while doctors work to save his life.” The Daily Herald, in an accompanying story, quoted “one of Britain's top surgeons, who was not named, as saying that if the Russians actually could perform a leg-grafting operation as described, “It means they are about 100 years ahead in the field of biology.”

Urges U.S., Canada Pool Wheal Surplus WASHINGTON (UPD - A privately sponsored Canadian-Amer-ican committee has proposed that the two nations pool their wheat suroluses in an overseas disposal IfOgnUß to help underdeveloped nations. The committee said an imaginative approach to surplus disposal methods was urgently needed to avoid a continuation of “intensified conflicts” between the United States and Canada for markets abroad. The 60 - member, two- nation committee is sponsored by two non-profit research organizations —the National Planning Assn, of the U.S. and the Private Planning Assn, of Canada. In a special study of wheat marketing practices, the committee suggested that cooperative action could start on a program providing famine and emergency relief to hard - pressed foreign countries. It said this could well be followed by a broader program to cope with the entire surplus disposal problem. The committee admitted that a joint famine relief program would aispose pf little more than a "relatively minor fraction” of the growing surpluses of the two big W’heat-producing countriesBut it pointed out an even broader program “might envisage the establishment of national reserve stocks of wheat in underdeveloped countries.” Such a large-scale program, the advisory committee said, could be formed initially by the United States and Canada, but should be left open for participation by qther wheat exporting countries.
