Edgar loover’s disclosure of an alleged intiwar conspiracy by a militant group of Roman Catholics brought an end to plans by the Rev. Phillip Berrigan and six others to kidnap presidential adviser Henry Kissinger, FBI informant Boyd Douglas testified Monday. He said a plot to blow up Wash ington heating tunnels also col lapsed. Douglas, 31, also said, as he wound up a week of testimony under direct examination, that in the aftermath of Hoover’s Nov. 27, 1970, statement he was ac cused by defendant Elizabeth Mc Alister, a Catholic nun, of leaking information to the FBI director.

Dixon Herman. “Yes,” said Douglas, who served as a courier for Berrigan when both were inmates at Lewis- burg Penitentiary and, when dis covered, became an informer for the FBI. Douglas said he asked another defendant the Rev. Joseph Wen- deroth, “if the Washington action was out,” and was told it was, “at least at this time.” With the conclusion of Douglas’ direct examination, the trial was adjourned until Tuesday, report edly to allow the defense to make last - minute preparations for cross-examination. Earlier the jury heard that Douglas once set a price of Sports car group meets Wednesday $50,000, tax free, on his services as an FBI informer against Berrigan. Douglas said his request was turned down. He said, however, he collected $1,500 from the government for his tip on a Rochester, N.Y., draft board raid. He also said he re ceived daily subsistence and travel expenses after his parole from Lewisburg Dec. 16, 1970 until April 1971—roughly estimated at $3,500. Douglas said that since last December he has been receiving witness fees and a living allow ance—an estimated total of 3,000. Berrigan and his codefendants are accused of conspiring to kid nap Kissinger, blow up the under ground heating system in Wash ington and raid draft board centers to destroy records. The target date was Washington’s birthday of 1971. On Nov. 27, 1970, Hoover went before a Senate Appropriations subcommittee seeking an addi tional $14.5 million for the FBI, and outlined what he described as a plot to kidnap an unnamed high government official. He attributed it to a militant group of Roman Catholics “who have manifested opposition to the war in Vietnam by acts of violence against government agencies and private corporations engaged in work relating to United States participation in the Vietnam con flict.” Lt.

College 823-805 years to be fatal, it is too early to say if the vitamin deprivation treatment is a cure, they said. If it proves to be so, this would be one of the very few cancers for which there would be a specific cure. Polychthemia vera is a disease in which the bone marrow pro duces an abnormal amount of red cells. It also increases production of white cells and blood plate lets, which are necessary for clot ting, the researchers said. With abnormally thick blood, the patient has abnormal bleed ing and clotting, headaches, diz ziness and other symptoms. The patient has a high risk of developing leukemia, doctors say. He may also die of a stroke, heart attack or other complications. Because the cause of death may finally be attributed to something else, doctors are not certain how widespread polycythemia vera is. Dr. Frank Smith, assistant pro fessor of pharmacology and med icine, estimated that it is less common than leukemia and ap pears most commonly in middle- aged males. Lane said up to now treatments were to periodically remove blood from the patient or to use potent anti-cancer drugs, which may have serious side effects and lose their effectivenss with time. Neither stopped the disease process. The vitamin deficiency treat ment is used only once, for from four to six weeks, the doctors said. Lane and Smith said they stum bled onto it when they were study ing anti-tumor drugs. One drug, called galactoflavin, blocked the effect of riboflavin on the body. It also turned off red cell produc tion. The doctors decided to see what the process would do with pa tients with polycythemia vera. They administered the ding and also put the patients on a ribo flavin-free liquid diet. “We stopped the red cell pro duction until the patients became somewhat anemic,” said Lane. The white cell and platelet pro duction also dropped. When they stopped drug and diet, the blood became abnormal again for a short period. Then it became normal and has remained normal for as long as patients have been followed. One patient . had treatment four years ago, one had it three years ago, one a year ago and a fourth is currently undergoing therapy. “We are not aware of natural remissions spontaneous returns to normal in this disease,” Lane added. Like other cancers, polycythe mia vera’s basic causes is not known, the researchers said. They said they don’t know exactly how or why the therapy works, but if they could find the answer it might give them some important clues about other cancers. Barnes to speak at College Station Lt.
