THURSDAY, APRIL 9, 1953 THE HOLLAND, MICHIGAN, EVENING SENTINEL PAGE FIVE New Chemical Prolongs Life of Acute Leukemia Victims as Long as 6 Months By DELOS bMlTH Press Science Editor CHICAGO (UP)--A big, but perhaps tempoiary, victoiy in prolonging the lives of victims of the most deadly foim of cancer, leukemia, was recorded today. A nevv man-made i a taken Lke aspum, has prolonged the lues of more than half of 45 child victims of acute leukemia for as long as six months Six months to a healthy person is hardly anything To an acute leukemia patient and they're mostly childien six months are comparable to yeais for anyone else. Acute leukemia takes only to kill. The announcement electrified the opening sessions of the annual meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research It came from physicians and a scientists of the Memorial Center for Cancer and Allied Diseases and Sloan-Kettering Institute for Cancer Research, New Yoik The chemical was made by altering slightly one of the four basic ingredients of nucleic acid which is a vital body cell sin- stance of all animal life. It is believed to interfere in the piocess by which cancer cells manufacture the nucleic acid that go into the formation of new cancer cells.

Of the 45 children with acute leukemia, the disease disappeaied entirely for from one to six months in 14. ETeven gained weight, felt well, and took up the normal activity of children although the disease still could be detected by laboratory tests. But, urfortunately 20 children showed no icact'on at all and those 20 are now all dead. Moreover, three of the 25 who did react and showed remarkable improvement, also are dead. Leukemia came back with a lush and killed them, as it invariably does.

officials protested that the i was "incredibly small." whether in "acute" or "chronic" forms. It also was tried on 62 adult cancer victims. Eighteen of these had acute leukemia, and in three detectable signs of the disease disappeared, but only temporarily. Five patients with chronic myelo- cyt'c (of the bone marrow) leukemia showed but patients with chronic lymphatic leukemia, which affects the lymph glands, did not Nor did victims of Hodgkin's disease or of advanced cancels of the icctum, laige bowel, stomach, uterus, and breast The technical name of the chemical is 6-mercaptopuime. The multiple syllable word is for the nucleic acid substance which was altered.

Malenkov began i a "peace offensive" one month ago today when he said all nations could live together as a happy family He voiced his philosophy in his funeial oration for Josef Stalin, had expressed the same general sentiments without taking any further steps Malenkov said the Soviet Union would "preserve the policy of peaceful co-existence and cooperation between nations A ueck later the new Russian premier said all troublesome and unresolved questions may be resolved by peaceful negotiations. Malenkov's vocal waving of the thus far have emerged: 1. The campaign was prepaiecl by Stalin to stop Geiman reaima- ment, to neutralize a wreck the six-nation European Defense Community and slow down the NATO defense progiam. 2. Malenkov and Deputy Premier Lavrenti Bet la decided to ease the tension temporarily to gain time for consolidation of their new regime.

And 15 Kremlin doctors who had been arrested and accused of plotting the deaths of high Soviet leaders were officially declared to have been framed Today, one month after Malen- kov started the "peace" ball rolling, his offensive was still a riddle to suspicious observers on this side of the Curtain. Cabinet members, ambassadors and top officials in Western governments still were looking for the real motives and aims of the peace di ive.

They hope that Prussia means business this time, but many diplomats fear the Kremlin is trying to lull the West into a false sense of security. Close study of the Soviet moves by reports from Western ambassadors in Moscow and exhaustive analyses by experts have produced a number of possible explanations Three mam lines of argument "increases both the manual and vocal demands on the sales clerk "It takes time to ask customers whether they want regular or king size," Mrs Camp said, "and also to stack the two different sizes.
