Detecting cancer early is half the battle, and for a generation medical researchers have sought a simple blood test to distinguish definitely between people who are free of cancer and those who have it, or at least may have it. So far their hopes have been raised only to be rudely dashed.* But this week members of the American Association for Cancer Research meeting in Atlantic City listened intently as Dr. Andrew H. Dowdy described the most promising blood test to date...
...This bill would require quarterly reports to Congress and the public on how many security risks have been separated each month from the Government, and exactly what type of risk they were. A detailed breakdown is vital, for only once in the past has there been an effort to distinguish between so-called "security risks" and actual subversives. Communists, criminals, perverts, and alcoholics--as well as people accused only by rumor--have all been lumped under the heading "security risk." The only past breakdown, pressured through a few weeks ago by the House Appropriations Committee, showed that very...
Last week the subcommittee gave up, declared by a 2-1 vote (Democrat Hennings objecting) that no one had been elected.

But after two weeks of retrospect, the Tribune eased back into the Senator's fold: "Senator McCarthy has been trying to clean out some of the subversive characters that the New Deal planted in the Government services...
...system, which charged fifty cents per hour for the first, day did not distinguish between students who were ten minutes late, and those who barely slipped in under the hour deadline. Offering a more finely graduated scale, Lamont's new plan will be fairer to the casual offender without taking the sting out of fines. The library, by charging twenty-five cents each tardy half hour, will provide the conscientious student with an opportunity to save and will no longer penalize him so much as his sleepier companions...
