ATLANTIC orTY, N. J.y Sept. 8 (U. P.).—A new ‘method of prevent-

ing damaging effects of war gases| ¥ on body tissues through a diet rich} in medt and other foods containing] the protein constituents cystine and} methionine was reported to the| American Chemical Society todayy by two Fordham University chem- 3 ists. | Making public recently completed} experiments with’ rats, Drs. J. A.}. Stekol and William J. Conway found |

that the two sulfur-containing amino acids detoxify pyridine, poisonous chemical present in tobacco smoke. Benzene derivatives employed in war gases in World War 1 have been detoxified in the bodies of men and

of animals during studies at Ford-|

ham covering the past seven years, they reported. “Vegetarian Hitler wotild certainly prove to be no match for beef-eating Churchill if both were given the same dose of pyridine or benzene,” they declared. “If Bernard Shaw's vegetarian diet had occasionally been seasoned with a dash of pyri-

Plan Further Experiments

The chemists said their work stresses “the importance of careful evaluation of occupational conditions and possible extra need for protein in devising dietary standards.” “Benzene and its derivatives are widely used in various industries; and benzyl chloride and bromobenzyl or cyanide were employed as war gases in the last World War, pnd may be used again in the presnt one,” their report pointed out. “The importance of dietary makeup to physical well being under the conditions of exposure to these toxic substances in aidihg the recovery from or prevention of damaging effects to the tissues is obvious.” The chemists said that the exact

methionine detoxify pyridine “must be studied further.” From a toxicological point of view, they added, “the amounts of pyridine present .in tobacco smoke, as related to the methionine or protein content of the diet of a chonric tobacco smoker, is perhaps, of particular significance.” They said further experimentation along these lines is being planned at Fordham.

GREENCASTLE, Ind. Sept. 8 (U. P)~—A U, 8. Army investigating

board today examined the wreckage of a pursuit training plane which crashed 12 miles northwest of here yesterday killing two high-ranking officials from Scott Field, Ill. ‘The plane roared into. a wooded hillside yesterday during a blinding rain and electrical storm. Killed instantly were Lieut. Col, Rufus B. Davidson, 47, of Atlanta, Ga., and Maj. Fred H. Murchison, 42, Sherman, Tex. The Army investigators refused to comment on the cause of the crash. Intelligence officers at Scott Field, Belleville, Ill, said the two Air Corps officers were engaged in a “routine flight for command information.” The men ‘had flown to Patterson Field, O. Saturday and were returning to their home base. The body of Maj. Murchison, pilot of the ‘plane, was thrown several hundred feet. from the wreckage when the plane struck. Bodies of both victims were badly mangled. Rescuers worked more than five hours extricating ‘the body of Col. Davidson from the charred plane. Bits of the wings, fuselage, radio equipment and safety belts were

scattered over a 150-yard area as

the plane cut through the dense timber, uprooting trees. The , crash occurred about 4:30 a. m. Farmers in the sparsely settled area said they were awakened

by the plane circling low overhead. | James Roach, Parke County farm-|.

er whose home was about a quartermile from the scene of the accident, told State Police that “the motor was running good; then it stopped.” “Then the motor started as if they were racing it,” Mr. Roach said. “I saw a ‘flash and the plane crashed. Other observers: corroborated Mr. Roach’s statement, but they believed the explosion followed the crash. Police said the “flash” Mr. Roach saw probably was the reflection of the fire in the sky, occurring almost simultaneously with the crash. Neither of the two victims apparently tried to bail out. Sheriff Froman Clouse of Parke County said the parachutes of both filers were still attached to the bodies, although Maj. Murchison’s chute was partly open. Officers said it might have been ripped when he was thrown from the plane. State Police called to the scene guarded the area until Army officials and soldiers from Ft. Harrison arrived.

Here's What Texas Senator

Tells Folks "Home on Range

By MARSHALL MCcNEIL * Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, Sept. 8—Accompanied by his own hill-billy band, Senator Wilbert L. O’Daniel of Texas yesterday broadcast to the folks at home the story of his wife’s homesickness for her canary and goldfish and “Home on the Range.” He told his listeners over 15 Texas stations, “it looks as if the longing for all this has settled in her back, for she can hardly move about from some cause or other— I guess they call it lumbago.” He added, parenthetically, “She’ll work Ie over for telling off on her, but ’s so.” The band he: brought here will play at least once a week on the Senator’s regular Sunday morning broadcast to Texas, whith is put on records here about Thursday ahd mailed down for airing three days later. More a-Coming

And while the band isn’t playing, the members—they and the Senator hope—will be working at Gov-

The band is known as “They Hillbilly Boys,” although one member is a girl—“Texas Rose.” Among the others are “Texas Songbird,” “Texas Mockingbird,” “Caesar,” and “Klondike.” Mike O'Daniel, the Senator’s son, usually plays the He brought the hillbilly boys here by auto, but is going back to school in Texas. "Later, three or four more players will be sent up to join the band. Yesterday’s broadcast opened with the Senator’s theme song, “Home Sweet Home,” and that led him into a discussion of what appears to be Mrs. O’Daniel’s homesickness.

; The Goldfish Drowned

Living here in a fifth-floor hotel suite (which he told Texans earlier cost $360 a month) isn’t bothering Senator O’'Daniel especially, but “it’s the Mrs. that it’s telling on.” He said, “she keeps talking about a house where she can have ancanary bird.” “When it’s all summed up,” the Senator said, “I guess she wanés another real home.” Before the “longing for all this” had brought on the lumbago, he said, he “figured out - something

and get her mind off home and

that I thought would entertain her firmly.

But they had hardly seated themselves when the orchestra began playing “Home on the Range.” He looked over at Mrs. O’Daniel, “but she had her face covered with her handkerchief.” (The Hillbilly Boys, at this point of the broadcast, played—guess what—“Home on the Range.”) Then, continued the description of the movie, the newsreel began, and there were piciures of soldiers

AIDS “HALLECK PROBE

Calls on Aids to Spur Attendance of Small ‘Businessmen. .

‘Republican County Chairman James L. Bradford. asked G. O. P. ward chairmen today to urge all small businessmen in their communities to voice their views at the conference on small business at 2 p. m, tomorrow at the Claypool | Hotel. The conference was called by Rep. Charles A. Halleck, second district, who is chairman of a congressional committee investigating the plight of small business as the: result of g national shortage of raw materials. The comniittee was appointed by Rep. Joseph Martin Jr. (R., Mass.) G. O. P, National Chairman. Remedy Is Sought Purpose of the meeting is to formulate legislation to help the small enterpriser gel the materials he needs to stay in business through the defense emergency. Courity Chairman Bradford urged the ward leaders to contact every individual businessman in the City irrespective of party affiliation. Where it is inconvenient for the businessmen to attend the: conference, ward chairmen will ask them to write their views to the Congressman.

Calls Problem Serious :

“The present situation as it ‘affects little business is admittedly one of the most serious problems confronting this country,” Mr. Bradford said. “There are men and women right here in Indianapolis who have worked long and hard to establish themselves. “They struggled through the 3: pression years and now many of them face failure because materials will be denied them by the Government. And all of this in a period of increasing consumer demand. “These little fellows have been the backbone of every community and if they are compelled. to close up now, their chances of reopening after the war are pretty slim.”
