He told of a Kansas flier who re- fused to write a confession des- pite l.li00 hours of questioning directed by Russians. ' Alleges Torture Dr. Mayo said US. fliers were reduced.to a level lower than that of animals, and that the tortures were designed to be more terrible than medieval methods. "They are calculated to disinte- grate the mind of an intelligent victim," he asserted, in order to make him destroy his own integ- rity and produce an elaborate fic- tion." . , "if anything is surprising to me," he observed. "it is that so many of our soldiers-both those who confessed and those who did not, although for months they were treated like animals or worse - somehow continued to act through- out like men."

Dr. J Jirnest Ayre of Miami said the method was the first. other than x-ray. which could be done by any general practitioner- and he added that x-ray some- times can not distinguish between ulcer and cancer in the stomach. He told the Southern Medical Assoicatlongat its annual meeting that the collection of cells requires only five minutu. yet appears to compare favorably in accuracy with previous stomach celi-oolleot- ing techniques which are more dif- ficult and time-consuming. Dr. Ayre told a." reporter that while final appraisal of the value of the technique will require etud- so far "indicate definite promise and the possibility that the ac- curacy may eventually prove greater than previous techniques of this type." Aids Detection Moreover, he added, the simplic- ity of the test should make it pos- sible to examine many more pos- sible stomach cancer cases than has hitherto been the case. The instrument has been made available to all physicians. The objective of all types of cell- collecting tests, he said, is to de- tect stomach cancer at A stage early enough so that it can be cured by surgery. The "rotating brush" has its bristles arranged in two "wings. When inserted into the mouth at the fore end of e' hollow plastic tube. the brush is "folded" w in a little sleeve. When it is .g tied to the stomach, a plunger re- leases the brush from the sleeve. The wings open and brush is Von Paulus Returns From, Long Capitivy In Russia Treaty.
