Thursday, July 8, 1954 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE FIFTEEN Private Plane Crash Cause Being Studied Champaign, Ill. The University of Illinois Institute of Aviation is trying to find out how to prevent the most com-, mon cause of fatal accidents involving private planes. Most of the 1,000 persons killed annually in private aircraft die when their planes are trapped in bad weather and they try to make blind landings.

The pilot either goes into a spin or makes a series of up and down swoops ending in a crash. Under a $4,000 grant from the American Aircraft Owners and Pilots Foundation, the Institute is trying to set up methods for training pilots to turn safely though blindly, land, or go above clouds and fog. Most such accidents result because the pilot never learned to fly on instruments or is rusty on these procedures. The most promising lead so far is for a single instrument combining a turn indicator needle together with proper setting of controls for keeping the craft level while it slowly rises or descends.

Science at Work has challenged science to find out just what mere traces of the "trace elements," or the lack of those traces, have to do with the health of mankind. There is impressive evidence that they have much to do with it. The lack of a trace of iodine in the diet can cause goitre. Sheep have died by herds for the lack of a trace of cobalt in their grass. It is not at all impossible that the lack of traces of some "trace elements" could be involved in such mystery diseases as cancer and multiple sclerosis.

No one can say positively that they do or they don't. That is the complaint of Dr. Harry V. Warren, geologist and geological engineer of the University of British Columbia. He wants such sciences as biochemistry, pathology, physiology, botany, geology, geochemistry, biophysics, chemistry, physics, microbiology, geography, neurology, and statistics to get together and look into the complicated subject thoroughly.

Minute Traces More than 90 per cent the earth's crust is made up of 15 elements oxygen, silicon, aluminum, iron, calcium, maghydrogen, titanium, chlorine, phoshorous, manganese, carbon, sulphur, nitrogen, and fluorine. Analyze soils or rocks or the bodies of animals, and you'll find them. But of other elements you'll find only traces if you find them at all. Hence, "trace elements." It wasn't too long ago when science couldn't isolate traces that were too faint, although they were there. Dr.

Warren's laboratories can take a sample of only two grams and isolate molybdenum existing in a ratio of one part to 10,000,000 of other substances. Warren cited a list of emples of what these trace elements can do. Two ounces of molybdenum per acre have made worthless land productive in New Zealand. Several pounds of zine and copper sulfate per acre converted "hopeless" land into land which can support three sheep per acre. Beryllium will cause cancer in By DELOS SMITH.

United Press Science Editor rats. Arsenic miners and smelter workers are subject to skin cancer. Uranium and cobalt miners have more than their share of lung cancers. The mineral contents of food depends upon the minerals contained in the soil in which they grow. Soils are made by climate and vegetation acting on rocks and these rocks "differ widely, both in the proportions of their more abundant elements and in the trace element contents." Fundamental Aspect It used to be that human beings lived mainly around the mouths of great rivers which brought minerals from along their lengths and deposited them over their periodically flooded estuaries.

Man couldn't transport food then -he had to eat the food that grew where he lived. Now trace elements are exhausted from some soils, and they never existed in other soils which now produce foodstuffs that likewise have to be deficient in those elements. "Cancer and multiple sclerosis are two major problems which scientists are confronted, and present day thought seems to be turning to the belief the solution to these diseases possibly others lies in biochemical processes," Dr. Warren pointed out in The Scientific Monthly, an organ of the American Association for the vencement of Science. "The biochemical and graphical aspects of these diseases are worthy of attention, surely these studies should include the most fundamental aspect of all, the ultimate source of the trace elements, the rocks."
