pr,
I am writing to you in regard to your brother=s illness. I have information
that I feel might be helpful to him. I would like to offer him the benefit of our
experience but I doubt if it would be proper to contact him personally under the
present circumstances.
Several years ago my brother contracted cancer (Lymphoma). We were told that
there was practically no hope for him. I then sidetracked work on various inventions
and made a study of the problem.
I recalled that when I was a boy they used to cure rheumatic fever by giving
the patient blood transfusions from someone who had recovered from the disease. I
also knew personally of one instance in which a person recovered from cancer without
treatment. This was a woman who was "healed" at a church revival. Local doctors
pointed out that it took two weeks for the cancer to disappear and diagnosed it as
a case of spontaneous regression. There was also a policeman in New York City who
had recovered without treatment from the same illness that my brother had. This man
came in for a biopsy and various tests and arranged for treatments. His illness was
in a serious stage but he was so busy he kept posponing his treatments. Four years
later he came in for tests and showed no sign of the disease.
I wanted my brother to have transfusions from someone who had aquired immunity
to his illness but I ran into opposition. Itr sister-in-law and other relatives refused
to have anything done unless the doctors at Baylor Hospital reccomended it. They told
my relatives that if there was anything availqble that would help my brother they
would have it. So I ran into a blank wall. They did insist on giving my brother various
drastic treatments reapproved" by the Medical Association. Besides x-rays, these included
a dangerous chemical, a cobalt cocktail, and injections of Mustard gas. He looked like
a living corpse after each treatment and was each time in worse shape after treatment
than before. After each treatment he had-to have blood-transfusions to save him. -
Meanwhile I wrote letters to various research centers (including the Surgeon
General) about the above and various other ideas I came up with. I notice that three
of my ideas have now become "approved"by the medical proffession. Besides the technique
of transfusions from aquired immunity cases, they have approved my idea of electrical
current therapy inside tumors, and my idea of perfusion chemotherapy by isolation of
a cancerous area in the body; involving the use of heart-lung and kidney machines and
a separate blood supply to the ciseased area. Doctors W.C. Sumner and A..C. Foraker of
Jacksonville, Florida report cure of Melonoma cancer by transfusions from a person who
recovered spontaneously from the same type of cancer. Research on the other two is in
process at the New England Institute for Medical Research and the M.D. Anderson Tumor
Institute at Houston, Texas. It brother died last summer.
The moral to my story is this, if you are looking to an impressive funeral for
Secretary Dulles then sit back-and trust in the Medical proffesion. Py suggestion is,
that you start looking for someone who has made a "spontaneous" recovery from the type
of cancer that your brother has. Such cases are fairly rare but not impossibly so. If

your proposed donor has not made a recent recovery (10 years or more) his immunity
can be highly activated by giving him an injection of sterilized media taken from
the patient. There is also the matter of blood types and the consent of the donor.
It idea involved using the aquired immunity of one person to cure another
and then the aquired immunity of both of them could be used to cure others and so
on. This would involve an endless chain in which each type of cancer virus could
be stamped out completely,
In the unlikely event that you are unable to find a suitable donor of the
type mentioned above, there is another type of transfusion that would probably be
helpful. This involves removing a p' t of blood each day and replacing it with
another half pint from a healthy s has proved helpful in leukemia but has only
been tried to a. limited extent in other types of cancer. I feel that the donor in
such instances should be a young and vigorous person but that point has not been
proved as yet.
I believe the end of the cancer fight is in sight but I believe also that
you yourselves will have to take the inititiave if this is to be of much benefit
to Secretary Dulles. There is a tremendous amount of unmoving inertia in the
medical pr:offession. In any case I wish the Secretary a prompt and speedy recovery.
Sincerely yours,
P, S. 9. ' I. Jr-
To let you know who I am, the enclosed clipping is not entirely accurate.
I am the inventor of the brushless and stable polarity type electrical generators
used in our late model military aircraft. Also the Flying Air Base concept and
various inventions relating to the militery use of nuclear weapons. Back in the
late forties I wrote your organization a letter about a special invention. This
related to a weapons system for using the ionizing effects of a chain of nuclear
explosions to discharge the electrical potential of the upper atmosphere,or
ionosphere, as a military weapon. Such a discharge, in some ways analogous to
lightning, would be a thousand times more powerful than an H-bomb. I believe you
may know of this weapon. There has been some controversy in regard thereto. It
looks now as if this invention might soon become a specific for another type of
cancer (communism).

 Inventor Alga Tabor's most loyal backers watch as he demon-
strates an experiment in their home at Hurst. With Mr. and
Mrs. Tabor are the children, Deborah, 2, and Meredith, 6.-

Every working day Alga
M. Tabor leaves his neat
home in Hurst and drives 82
miles to Greenville.
Tabor starts out about 9
p. m. He is a night-shift line
mechanic at Temco.
Work done, he drives 82
miles back to 704 Oak Dr.
He's the father of two
small children and doesn't
behind him, he plays with t010
kids.
TABOR, 40, IS also active'
in the Bedford Church of
Christ. Religion gets some of
his time.
You'd think this would
make a rather full day.
Tabor doesn't. He manages
to find hours for his work-
shop, where he develops de-
fenses against atomic bombs,
new methods of aerial attack,
and a device that he says
demolishes part of Einstein's
theory of relativity.
ALTHOUGH HE works i
a field largely populated b
experts with strings of col
loge degrees, Tabor is
throwback to the days of Edi
son and the Connectieu
tinkerers who revolutionizes
industry.
He's not a college gradu-
ate. Nearly everything about
physics, atomic energy, static
and dynamic electricity was
learned by reading in his own
home.
Several have been patented.
One - a method of increas-
ing the effectiveness of
aerial attack-is under study
at Convair.
Five others are before the
Atomic Energy Commission.
AEC may determine within
30 days the sums to be
awarded to the Hurst in-
ventor.
Tabor's curiosity ranges
far and wide. His aerial at-
tack method involves a plane
carried piggy-back on a-fly-
ing tanker.
Piloted planes are more ac-
curate than missiles, he says,
and planes can fly hundreds
of missions against one for
a missile.
TABOR HAS invented a
device and means for produc-
ing ultra - gamma radiation.
He has developed a theory of
high energy cosmic radiation,
and a defense against nuclear
radiation based on throwing
up protective chemical clouds
bctween the attacker and the
target.
HE ALSO HAS patents for
improvements in atomic
weapons, for means to induce
lightning artificially, and for
inventions and discoveries in
stroboscopic rays.
Doing all this has cost Ta-
bor quite a sum. His pretty
wife, Elizabeth, gestures
around their sparsely - fur-
nished house and says: "All
the missing furniture went
into experiments."
The Atomic Energy Com-
mission awards will be sub-
stantial, the Tabors feel.
"We have had a long, up-
hill struggle," says Mrs. Ta-
bor. "If the money comes
through, we hope to use part
of it for church work, prefer-
ably in helping to establish
foreign missions."
works in a field linked close-
ly to warfare, he believes
world understanding fostered
by religion may prevent in-
ventions like his from ever
being needed.
