UN Bond Issue Spells Defeat For By WILLIAM N, OATIS UNITED NATIONS munist allies find themselves beaten on the question of United Nations bonds even if the UN fails to sell the whole issue of 200 800 100. More than a score of coun- tries, including Canada, have agreed to put their money on the line in opposition to the So viet stand | and France| the Soviet bloc} against the bonds project. The vote in the general assembly I tne issue, wit 33 countries abstaining or ab- sent. Two months ago Acting Sec- retary-General U Thant sent out | his first bond - selling letters. | Twenty-two countries have since stated their intentions of buying more than $150,000,000 in bonds, in some cases subject to legisla tive approval. Three have al- ready bought $5,780,000 worth— Denmark, Finland and Norway. | INCLUDE NEUTRALS The intended buyers include the United States, Britain and West Germany. They also in-| elude Asian neutrals (Burma, | Ceylon and India), African neu-| trals (Ethiopia and Sudan) and European neutrals (Austria and Bweden). | Other announced purchasers are Canada, Liberia, Nigeria, Malaya, Pakistan, Australia, Is- rael, Iceland and Ireland. Facing a deficit, Thant sug- gested the bond issue because less than a third of the mem- oo (AP)— | The Soviet Union and its Com-| Russians | bers were paying assessments for the UN special forces in The Congo and the Middle East. Sixty-nine nations are in default for one or the other, or botk. Among the biggest defaulters are the Soviet Union, France, Nationalist China, Beigium and Italy. Also in the no-pay group are many Communist, Latin American, African and Asian countries. The bond issue will bear two- per-cent interest a year, mature in 25 years and be repaid out of the regular UN budget, which all members support.

Some at Less Than Pre-War Prices | hold back the part of its budget assessment that would go to pay off bonds. It argues that the scheme mortgages UN head- quarters to the bondholders, that it goes against the UN charter and that the general as- sembly usurps security council powers when it sets aside money for peace operations. In the United States, $100,- 000,000 worth. The Senate for- eign relations committee has recommended that the Unitea States buy $25,000,000 outright and then match other countries’ purchases up to $75,000,000. The president has accepted this. On that basis, and with pres- ent pledges, the UN can count on selling only a total of about | $125,000,000 to govern ments. Thant said last week that he may have to recommend changes in the UN Congo opera- tion if response to the bond is- sue is unsatisfactory. Rare Baby Case Found In Canada By AL COLLETTI FNGLAND (CP)— A country- wide test of babies begun by family doctors 18 months ago has discovered for the first time in Canada a case of phenylke- tonuria, a rare condition that leads to severe mental retarda- tion As the result of the early discovery of this condition in a baby at Picton, Ont., there is a chance to treat it with a rigid,, special diet Commonly referred to in medicine as KU, Phenylke- tonuria occurs only once in 20,- 000 live births. The College of General Prac- tice of Canada sent to more than 2.000 doctors a test kit for PKU, urging the family doctors to test all newly born babies twice before the age of two months. The test fs simple, in- volving applying a few drops of ferric chloride to a wet diaper. If the child is suffering from PRU, its urine turns the chem- icle grean. The Picton case was dis- covered two weeks ago an known to the college's eixth annual scientific assembly aboard this Canadian Pacific liner that is nearing the end of an eight-day Caribbean cruise. More than 850 general practi- tioners, more than half from small communities across Can- ada, are attending five days of acientific sassions. The PKU case was discovered by Dr. F. W. Murphy of Picton, fm the sixth of a family whose other five children are normal. LACKS AN ENZYME PKU is a condition in which @ child {s born lacking an en- zyme needed to enable the body to handle phenylalainine, a sub- stance found in a normal diet. The child has normal intelli- gence at birth because of the protection of the mother, but if the condition is not discovered before the child is six months old it causes severe damage to the developing brain. Ninety per cent of untreated PKU patients have an intelli- gence quotient of less than 30 and face institutional care that gometimes lasts many years and costs the government an estimated $5,009 a year A special diet developed in 1950 can reduce mental retarda- tion so that the child will ae- quire an IQ of 70 or more Such a child can be trained to have a useful place in society.
