A., have gone on record as opposing the move of John L. Lewis to collect sums of money which were loaned to the CIO by the mine work- ers in a resolution favoring continu- | ance of making per capita payments. The resolution states that “we con- | sider the advances which our organi- zation has made to the CIO in the past in the light of a just contribu- tion which we were glad to make, and | not as a loan for which we intend to exact payment by fair means or by foul.” In the event of the CIO returning the money, the members have gone on record as favoring the “paying back to the rank and file members the money which they gladly assess- ed themselves to make money avail- able for the job or organizing the un- organized.” —1If the Fuehrer plans an invasion here, we advise against Washington, where lodgers are sleeping five to the double bed. This is not the leb- ensraum his heart desires. * YOUR HEALTH * From the Board of Trustees of the Medical Society of the State of Pennsylvania of which the Cambria County Medical So- ciety is a component . . . MALARIA ating diseases of mankind. It is claimed to kill 2,000,000 per- sons every year. In the United States alone there are almost 1,000,000 cases with 5,000 deaths annually. Most of the cases in this country are limited to the southeastern states and the Missisippi River basin. With our world-wide interests to- day, the subject of malaria has more implication than ever before. Malaria is an infectious disease | transmitted from person to person by the bite of an infected mosquito. Malaria is characterized by attacks of severe chills, fever, and sweating. Such attacks may occur every day, every other day or within an interval of three days between chills. Even after recovery from a severe attack, malaria may become chronic through occasional relapses. Malaria is an ancient disease re- cognized in the earliest records. Quinine has been the standard drug in the treatment of malaria. Because the administration of this drug must be continued for a long period -—daily for eight weeks or more—it is often difficult to induce | patients to adhere to this treatment. | Recent dicoveries of new drugs have put into use three accepted antimalar- {ial drugs which may be used or sub- | stituted in certain instances because j of their selective action. | The Malaria Commission of the | League of Nations in 1937 authorized {leading malariologists to conduct ex- periments to determine as nearly as possible the best treatment for the individual with malaria. The three drugs now in use are quinine, atabrine and plasmoquin. Most successful results come from the proper choice of drug—and this is the responsibility of the physician in charge.

COAL TAR PITCH REAL ANTI FOR FIRE BOMB Hard coal-tar pitch, according to Science Service, granulated or flaked, will extinguish a magnesium incendi- ary bomb by forming an air tight blanket which quickly smothers the flame. According to Dr. R. R. Sayers, di- rector of the U. S. Bureau of Mines, pitch is the best known extinguisher better than sand or water or even prepared compounds such as carbon tetrachloride, carbon dioxide and foam, The pitch, sometimes called “fuel pitch”, will soften at about 300 de- grees Fahrenheit. It is suggested that 25 or 50 pound lots be stored in box- es or bags with long handled shovels kept nearby for smothering fire bombs. Directions given by the Bureau of Mines follows: A slightly different procedure is followed in extinguishing incendiary bombs falling on wood surfaces and Malaria is one of the most devast-.

In either case it is necessary to wait ab- out one minute for the thermit to burn itself out before trying to ex- tinguish the bomb. In dealing with a bomb on concrete or metal, use a shovel or scoop to spread—NOT throw—a layer of pitch over it. If a short flame persists, ap- ply another layer of pitch and allow it to cool ten minutes before removing it from the house or office in a buck- et or metal container. Although the bomb may continue to smoke for a BARNESBORO EE st few minutes, it will not burn again because the pitch encircles it in ap airtight blanket, shutting off its [= cessary oxygen supply. To extinguish a bomb on a waod | floor such as an attic, cover the bomb with a layer of pitch to stop the heat and glare. Then spread a layer of pitch on the floor nearby, rolling the bomb with a long handled shovel or hoe onto this layer and covering the entire mass with more pitch. This is necessary because the burning bomb can get air through the pores and cracks of the wooden floor. CLUSTER STITCHING highlights the con- vertible collar, front and cuffs.
