From the Board of Trustees of
the Medical Society of the State
of Pennsylvania of which the
Cambria County Medical So-
diety is a component . . .
One of the most important reports
following the bombing of Hawaii on
December 7 is the medical report.
A Honolulu physician has just re-
ported procedures used in treating
penetrating wounds of the head at
that time.
During the early part of the first
World War the death rate from brain
injuries was over 60 per cent.
The late, great American surgeon,
Dr. Harvey Cushing, lowered this fig-
ure to 28 per cent by improving the
operative technic and case manage-
ment.
Death rate from brain wounds in
second World War should be even
less than 28 per cent
Following the Pearl Harbor bomb-
ing attack, a newer drug, sulfanila-
mide, was used on head injuries with
marked success.
When first arriving at the receiv-
ing station the patient's hair about
the head is clipped widely and closely.
The edges of the lacerated wounds
are cleaned with soap and water.
Large bleeding vessels in the lacer-
ated scalp are clamped with a hemo-
stat or by local pressure or tieing a
piece of rubber tubing about the head.
A temporary dressing is then ap-
plied after the wound has been filled
with one of the powdered sulfanila-
mide drugs.
Strangely, few of the Pearl Harbor
patients with penetrating wounds of
the brain were brought to the receiv-
ing station in an unconscious state.
This was explained by the fact that
the flying projectile was traveling so
fast that the head was struck, perfor-
ated and penetrated before the brain
as a whole had time to be vibrated.
The physician also said that the
force applied to the head was concen-
trated in such a small area compared
to the entire skull dimension that
generalized acceleration of the brain
was not produced.
Medical science will remember
Pearl Harbor and out people will pro-
fit by what it taught physicians about
the treatment of head injuries.
With Te Supply of rubber care;
fully curtailed it is to be hoped thaf
the number of bouncing checks issued
this year will be materially reduced

From his room at the White House,
Lincoln looked out of the window at
the flickering camp fires of the
encmy entrenched across the Potomac.
Sc near had defeat come to the Capi-
ta! of the Nation. Then he rose and
went to meet his rebellious Cabinet,

tioned compromise. He was resolved
to fight to the end for a united

said, “not more than half a dozen”

short-sighted policy, for in times of

in other business enterprises.
TAPROOMS CLOSE AT SAME
HOUR UNDER ‘WAR TIME’
The Liquor Control Board of Penn-
taprooms will close at 2 a. m., under
Eastern War Time, just as before
business as in the case of Daylight
Saving Time.
Chairman Frederick T. Gelder said
the Liquor Control Board system
automatically comes under the new
standard time which supersedes state
laws and local ordinances, and has
nothing to do with Daylight Saving
Time, formerly optional with munici-
palities.
“The hours during which liquor and
malt or brewed beverages may legally
be sold are prescribed by the Liquor
Control Act,” Gelder said. “Such
hcurs are based upon standard time,
