EARLY PHYSICIANS' ROLE:
Library Exhibits Arabian Medicine Collection
,,
The Medical Library located in
the Kresge - Foundation Research
Center is exhibiting some high-
lights of Arabian Medicine.
David Kronick, divisional librar-
ian, said that this is one of the
many efforts of the Medical
Library to bring to the University
material which is available in the'
immediate area.
Dr. Lufti M. Sa'di, of Detroit, a
Lebanese native, possesses one of
the finest libraries on Arabic
Medicine in this country.
The exhiibt, a part of the doc-
tor's library, is a depiction in
graphic art of the part played by
the Arabian physicians from 750
A.D. to 1400 A.D.
Arabic was the "lingua franca"
of the learned during the Dark
Ages of Medieval Europe indicat-
ing that during the period of time
in which Europe was overrun by
the Goths and Huns, Arabic was
the refined and educated language
of the times.
The period, 750 to 900, is known
as the period of Transition and
Assimilation. During this era
Nestorian scholars explored the
Persian Schools of medicine. Jundi

A-Proposal
Plan Unsafe
At Monroe
WASHINGTON (M)--Sen. Clin-
ton Anderson (D-N.M.) said yes-
terday the Atomic Energy Commis-
sion's Reactor Safeguard Com-
mittee has put an "unsafe" label
on a private combine's plan for an
atomic power plant at Monroe,
Mich.
Ground-breaking for the plant
is scheduled for Aug. 8. Sen. An-
derson told a reporter he has been
trying, so far without success, to
get AEC to make public its safety
committee's report. Sen. Anderson
said he might release the report
himself.
He said he also might take the
matter up with Gov. G. Mennen
Williams. The Governor, he said,
has certain "responsibilities" in the
situation.
No Public Hazard
Thomas E. Murray, AEC mem-
ber, was reported to have said
the reactor safeguard committee
had found "There is insufficient
information available at this time
to give assurance that the (Mon-
roe) reactor can be operated at
this site without public hazard."
Sen. Anderson, chairman of the
Senate-House Joint Committee on
Atomic Energy, has questioned
whether there might be a "conflict
of interest" between Walker Cis-
ler's duties as head of the combine
and as the government's "official
power consultant" abroad.
Cisler is president of the Detroit
Edison Co. and head of the Power
Reactor Development Co., which
was formed by 44 utility and man-
ufacturing companies to build a
100,000 kilowatt, fast-breeder nu-
clear reactor at Monroe.
Cisler also is chief power con-
sultant to the International Co-
operation Administration (ICA)
and represents ICA, AEC and the
State Department in the organi-
zation for European Economic Co-
operation. One of his jobs is to
inform the government of atomic
power progress abroad.
Released Testimony
The Joint Committee has re-
leased testimony at a closed hear-
ing June 28 during which Sen.
Anderson asked AEC Chairman
Lewis L. Strauss:
"Do you think ... there is any
possibility of what is called a con-
flict of interest by having Mr.
Cisler, who is in the power busi-
ness in the United States and is
vitally interested in whether or
not that power develops abroad,
be the official power consultant to
ICA?"
Strauss replied he knew "too
little about the situation" to com-
ment. He said he had not known
that Cisler held the ICA post.
