...time to mention Jean Paul Mather*of the University of Massachusetts in Amherst. The maximum salary he can offer a full professor is $8,684; the minimum offered the same man at the neighboring University of Connecticut is $8,100. This summer Massachusetts doubled tuition to $200, planned to use the money to attract sorely needed new teachers. But things do not work that way in the commonwealth of Massachusetts. Last week the state senate voted down Mather's house-approved pay-raise plan. And after five years of thoughtless state control, able President Mather resigned. "We cannot...
...Gaulle. Recalling the radio speech in which Adenauer charged that Fleet Street was being manipulated by anti-German "wire pullers" (TIME, April 20), London's Economist declared: "Dr. Adenauer has chosen to make a political issue of the gnat bites of individual British critics, and to make use of them in opposing British policies."

For aged or debilitated patients, and for doctors elsewhere who want to use the method, Rhein-Chemie in Heidelberg packages dried cells (average cost: $5-$10 a vial). "It's like the difference between fresh milk and powdered milk," explains Dr. Niehans...
...Niehans bars the use of cellular injections in patients with infections. Furthermore, he insists, patients get no X rays, diathermy, vaccinations, liquor or tobacco. He makes no claim to have cured cancer, but insists that among the thousands of patients to whom he personally has given 20,000 injections, none have later developed cancer...
