In those days there was no manual dialing. Those wish- ing to talk to friends or place orders with their gro- cery store cranked the tele- phone in their homes and heard a pleasant voice say "Number = please." Tele- phone customers were numbered in hundreds rather than thousands.

AMA Breaks Silence Favors Abort "ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) The American Medical Associa- tin, breaking a 97-year silence, adopted Wednesday a liberal of- policy on abortion. The policy, adopted with a Minimum of opposition, goes much further than the vast ma- jority of U.S. states which per- mit abortion only to save the life ofthe mother. ~The AMA favors abortion also when pregnancy is the result of fape or incest, threatens the mental or physical health of the mother and when the infant would be born with incapacitat- ing physical deformities or men- tal deficiencies. »Three states--Colorado, North lina and California--have abortion laws similar to the pol- ity adopted by the AMA. ~Abortion reform laws have been introduced in 20 other state legislatures, but have cre- ion Change those posing a direct threat to the life of the mother are acting contrary to existing laws." The policy was introduced in 1965, but not acted upon until last Sunday when the board of | trustees recommended its adop- tion. OPPOSED BY CATHOLICS The 14-page report said the Roman Catholic Church opposes abortion under any circum- stances, adding: "The committee respects the right of this group to express and practise its belief. "However, the committee be-| lieves that physicians who hold other views should be legally able to exercise sound medical judgment which they and their colleagues feel to be in the best jinterest of the patient." The report was adopted by the 242-member House of Delegates, Lasser Beam Only Burns TORONTO (CP) -- Laser beams have earned an exagger- ated reputation as death rays when in reality most of the beams could only give a man} a flesh burn, says Dr, Charles} as short as one-ten-trillionth of a second can be achieved.

The importance of reducing the pulsing time of laser light is that greater condensation of energy can be achieved, said Dr. Townes. This allowed for transmission of more informa- tion along laser beams in shorter times. This could lead to such devel- opments as faster switching in semi-conductors used in compu- ers and Could revolutionize the computer field, he said.

He had heard that 'three pints of turpentine adn.inistered to a tree" broyght favorable re- sults, Dr. Prebble said biologists' experience was that turpentine "falls in the category of steps in the dark." None of the popu- lar injection techniques had proven effective and reports of good results are "based on very inadequate information."

'tion."" GENEVA (AP)--A Canadian labor leader has informally in- vited the International Labor Or- ganization to study alleged lack of freedom of association for un- ion members in Canada. Marcel Pepin, president of the Confederation of National Trade Unions and a vice-president of the International Federation of Christian Trade Unions, told the ILO's annual meeting here all trade unions in Canada 'with very few exceptions, are Ameri- cans." "In Canada they are called in- ternational unions. These, with the support of the English-speak- ing majority, can set up na- tional units and thus, after of- ficial recognition, they can de- mand that all the other workers toe their particular line. International Labor Group Asked To Study Unions Here is inevitably equivalent to put- ting freedom of association into a straightjacket."" The CNTU is primarily a Que- bec-based organization which is opposed to the Canadian Labor Congress. A senior ILO official said no official request for an investiga- tion has been received. Pepin was not available for comment, but reliable sources said he does not at this stage plan to make an official application for an in- ternational investigation. "We are hoping that the Ca- nadian government will take no- tice of what has been said here and react accordingly," a col- league said.
