...walk more than a few yards because of leg pain from deficient blood flow, 32 say they now feel better and some can walk farther. Dr. Fuson himself has slimmed to 172 Ibs. and has sent his cholesterol crashing down to the 40-50 mg. range that is normal for a newborn baby. He has done this without denying himself steaks and creamy desserts. "So," he says, "you can have your cake...
Telling the President. On the House floor, Bow introduced his proposal as an amendment to a routine financing resolution necessary to authorize normal spending by the majority of departments for which formal appropriations are still pending. House Speaker John McCormack quashed the amendment as irrelevant. The Republican riposte was to move that the financing resolution be sent back to committee. "We are going to tell the President," declared Minority Leader Gerald Ford, "to make reductions at the demand of Congress. This is what we should do as a legislative body." Majority Leader Carl Albert scurried about the floor trying...
Last week the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that consumer prices rose by 0.3% in August, reversing the normal trend for that month. Wholesale prices also rose by 0.3%. If Congress fails to pass a tax rise, the independent Federal Reserve Board may well restrict credit-as it did in similar circumstances last year-and perhaps make tight money an even bigger election-year issue than higher taxes. Fast-rising prices do not make for friendly voters either. As obnoxious as these alternatives may be in Washington, they have yet to exert any lubricating effect on the stalemate between Lyndon...
...normal cell division, the chromosomes split, forming two complete sets that migrate to opposite sides of the cell. The cell then divides down the middle forming two cells, each with a complete set of chromosomes. Treated with colchicine, however, the cell creates the additional chromosomes, but subsequently fails to divide, thus creating a cell with double the normal number of chromosomes...
Voluntarily continuing their research at the Agriculture Department's Beltsville, Md., Plant Industry Station-where they are affectionately called "wocs" for "without cost"-Dermen and May patiently placed colchicine on each new bud of Siberian elm seedlings, pruned off leaves and twigs that had normal chromosome counts, and rooted double-chromosome shoots until they had developed plants with only double-chromosome cells. A dozen of these tailored plants, each 15 in. high, were recently shipped to the department's Delaware, Ohio, research station, where they will be raised until they flower and then mated with American elms. That...
