"Is it right for us to pay Roman taxes, or not?" ever He answered would likely get Him in. trouble, If He said' "yes," the anti-Roman crowd would turn against Him.

Of Liver Speeds Cancer's Growth By ALTON L. BLAKESLEE AP Science Reporter PHILADELPHIA -A mystery substance made by the liver can make certain cancers grow faster, a scientific team reported Saturday. They find that liver extracts will speed the growth of some cancers transplanted into animals.

The same speed-up chemical comes from rapidly growing liver Itself The speed-up effect was found by Drs. Karl E. Paschkis, Abraham Cantarow and J. Stasney of Jefferson Medical College. They described it to reporters visiting cancer research centers, under auspices of the American Cancer Society.

The research team now. is trying to learn just what the speed-up material is. It is not vitamin B12, their tests show. Pinpointing mystery chemical could open the way to possible methods of putting the brakes upon some cancers, or finding chemicals possessing an opposite, slowdown effect. Another medical researcher, Dr.

M. Bongiovanni of Children's Hospital, the University of Pennsylvania, described the cause and solution of one kind of sex mixup which can make girls be mistaken for In this mixup, girt babies are born' with signs of double sex, and may easily be mistaken for. boys. They have some external male sex characteristics. But they are actually female, with all internal female organs.

The cause; Dr. Bongiovanni said, is chemical defect in the way their bodies try to make an adrenal gland hormone, cortisone. Instead of producing cortisone, their glands produce an abnormal hormone which acts like male sex hormone, with powerful virilizing effects. The remedy, he continued, is to give these children, or even adults, injections of cortisone. This puts their adrenal glands on vacation, supplying the needed cortisone and halting production of the abnormal virilizing hormone.
