WAKHiKnTON VS. researchers
Mnndav thrv had discovered the probable
cause of the discuss AIDS which hz$ caused
panic in the homosexual community said
they could be within two years of developing a
cure. .
Speaking on behalf of a research team from
the government-funded National Institutes of
Health, Margaret Heckler, secretary of Health
, and Human Services, told a news conference,
Today's discovery represents the triumph of
science over a dreaded disease." AIDS, Acquir
ed Immune Deficiency Syndrome, which leaves
its victims open to a series of wasting diseases
by affecting their immune systems, attacks
hemophiliacs, drug users arid recipients of
blood transfusions as well as homosexuals.
In the United States about 40 percent of the
more than 4,000 people afflicted with the dis
ease since its discovery in 1931 have died.
Heckler identified the probable cause of the
disease as a varient of an unknown human
cancer virus called Human T-cell Leukemia
Virus (HILV), which attacks human T-cells, an
essential element of the immune system.
She said the discovery at the Washington
based National Institutes of Health had come
at the same time as a similar discovery of an
AIDS-causing virus in the Masteur Institute in
France.
Court hears draft-aid caae
WASHINGTON The Supreme Court Mon
day hearda constitutional challenge to the fed
eral government's ruling it would deny federal
aid to male university students who fail to reg
ister for military conscription. The case was
brought by a Minnesota group against a 1D33
law which makes men who fail to register for
the draft as required by law ineligible for any
form of federal aid to higher education.
The Minnesota Public Interest Research Group
argued that forcing men to sign a statement
that they had registered for the draft as a
condition of getting aid forced many to make a
choice between self-incrimination, perjury or
losing the aid. Protection against self-incrimination
is guaranteed by the filth amendment
to the Constitution. Attorney William KeppeL
representing the Minnesota group, said the
law discriminated against the poor' because
a student who did not neec federal aid to con
tinue in college did not have to say whether
they registered for the draft.
