from United States base has wiped out Newfoundlandvherd of 295 hogs Dr Wells federal veteri nary directorgeneral announced here timt the animals were slaughtered and buried after the disease was discovered in th herd at St Johns Cholera last reported in Can ada in October 1957 is an incur able virus dis ease aflecting swine It is not transferable to humans or other animals Dr Wells said the

chemical as desoxyribouucleic acid DNA Dr Strich and coauthors Florian and Emson all as soclstec with Saskatoons Univer sity Hospital say in the report that using microscope photog raphy methods they measured the DNA content in three kinds of human cells gt Normal surface tissue cells cells in noacancerous grovnhs and cells of glandular cancers of the large intestine and stomach For cells in the first two cute gorles the DNA values were sim ilar but hi the third the values diilered from those of the first two classes They conclude The clear distinction between the DNA content of benign mwth cells and carcinoma cancer cells suggests the possi bility of diagnostic use of this method or certain borderline cases pans sons GENERAL CONTRACTORS Emu Sputnik new County instillalificafim
