Washington (IP)—Some of the
Japanese exposed to the atomic
bomb may transmit hereditary
ill effects to their descendants for
centuries, Dr. Herman Muller
said, adding that if they could
foresee the results a thousand
years ahead they might consider
themselves more fortunate bad
the bomb killed them.
Dr Muller, genetecist cf the
University of Indiana, spoke to
reporters after receiving news
that he was awarded the Nobel\
prize in medicine.
He asserted that the genes
which transmit hereditary char
acteristics are changed by expos
ure to certain rays and that
the effects pile up for genera
tions. Most of the changes are
bad, the doctor added.
Canada has agreed to permit
trucking in bond via the highway
from the U.S. to Alaska.
