Chronic Bronchitis Needs Care

By Herman N. Bundesen, M. D.,| Older people with chronic bronchitis UHuaily believe their syniptorn* are due to «u< h thitiKx a» change* in the weather, too much amoking or. perhaps. the dripping of infected materia? from the nose into the throat. A careful investigation. however, will usually show that the difficulty is due to none of these things but has been brought about by an acute Infection of the respiratory tract at some time in the past In children and young adults this condition, as well as the more serious one known as bronchiectasis in which there are stretching and rup tnre of the fine tubes of the lung can often be traced to an attack of pneumonia following measles or whooping cough. We are thus beginning to realise that every epidemic of acute respiratory infection leaves behind it thousands doomed to < hmale illness from bronchitis or bronchietlasts The fact that a person has apparently recovered from Influence or pneumonia does not mean that the infection has been completiy eradicated. even if the auWnamlde drugs or penicillin has been administers* daring the disease Unlike pneumonia due to pneumococcal germs, infections of the lungs with staphylococci or streptocowl frequently tail to clear up completely asd land to <* IW* *» sear tissue temattw

color. It also aliminata* odor and deterioration marks. The health authorities emphasize that "sulphites definitely are not preservatives and have only one use the purpose of deceiving the customer." At the price customer* must pay. good meat should be furnished. The health authorities say violators will be prosecuted. O Q Marshall Vassily D. Sokolovsky. Russian commander in Germany, evidently is doing some tail-story telling when he says that the Berlin blockade was declared only after the U. S. army required permits of the Soviets if they wanted to enter the American zone. Hi* explanation of the misunderstanding, which appear* almost serious enough to start a war doesn't hold water. There is more back of the trouble than the matter of visas. These Communists are canny fellows, never hesitating to tell a lie lor twisting facts to suit their purpose. The manhunt for the two savage Ohio killers ended in the shooting and death of one of the men and arrest of the other felon. The men

i admitted to the killing of seven i persons, including the Superini tendent of the Ohio Reformatory. - hl* wife and daughter. Van West county and city officials, augmented by a state patrol, apprei headed the criminal* six miles east of Van Wert on I'. 8. highway 221. This section of the country breathe* easier with the capture of the desperados. Ohio still in flicts capital punishment, so it should not take long to march the living killer to the chair ——o o 1 I The political pot continues to boil in the state house. As fuel to the flames, comes the ousting of two officials of the Alcoholic Beverage Commission and the insistant demand for the resignation of OOP Chairman H. (Mark Spring er. The fight is between the GovGates and Senator Jenner forces 1 and there seems to be about as much harmony in the Republican organization as was evident a week ago between the Itemocrat leaders in the Philadelphia convention Hoosier Republicans are worried over the break in party ranks and the ill-will that exists between the various state factions On the hand, the statesmanship and calmness of Henry Schrlcker. i appeals to more people every day. The new truce in Palestine is I only slightly less tenuous than I the last one. It the words of the | Arab League may be accepted at fare value. But it does constitute i a gain for the United Nation* The i United Nations was able to obtain truce by demand when further - voluntary truce appeared impos •ible. That the demand was sue.

and bronchiectasis may develop The fires of infection smoulder rather than burn and the damage done may be less obvious, but It is no less sure. In fact, it is almost more certain liecause the change from an acute to a chronic stage often takes place without noteworthy signs or symptoms; therefore. it may develop without adequate treatment bei’ag given. For example, a person who continues to cough after be is apparently cured of pneumonia rarely considers that his condition may be serious After recurrent attacks of fever, it la found that the condition may be due to acute bronchitis, and sulfonamide drugs or penicillin are again administered. If adequate treatment la not given, the condition will prograas until chronic bronchitis and bronchlectasls develop It is suggested, therefore, that in these patients penicillin, be administered over a long period of time in the form of a vapor breathed into the fangs The treatment should be carried out for from one to two weeks with large does of the penkillin. The doeage is then reduced and the treatment continued for from two to six months It is thought that by this means ctironii disease* of the lungs can be warded off and thousands, spared the expense and the teM-dnva-cut suer/ « the after**'* affbetMßs

Anne had been down there, ft was a aweet place beside the garden. There was a little screened porch and inside two good-sired rooms with a bath between. One was still fitted up as a bedroom The other, pine-panelled. and with a fireplace and bookcases and an icebox behind a screen, was John s office. He had to have some place where he could talk with his men without disturbing the family. And be had to have some place, too. where ho could write the articles and prepare the speeches he bad mentioned to Anpe.

cd hi* presence with invitations to talk. He spoke before Granges, before groups of agricultural agents, before professional people of various kinds. Writers, educators. politicians, scientists, government experts, men who had farms as hobbies as well as those who made their living from the soilall these sought hL advice. John, Anne had come to see in those few short weeks, was a leader In the community; indeed, tn the state; for he was among the pioneers who were trying to conserve natural resource*. She could not take his office from him, of course. She had gone beck to New York to pack up and while she was there Don had come to see her. He had been completely at a loss. "1 don’t get it," he said. "You , went out there with your mind , made up not to cut your bridges behind you till Alec got home. But i he * not home and you’re cutting i ’em. What’s happened?" i From the top of a step-ladder where she was taking down curi tains, she had cocked an eyebrow • at him. i “W«U, you told me not to worry • about n.jc job. And I didn't see • why I should worry about another year's rent when I could live for

free at Biens House." -Still I don’t get it" -Why not?" "Because Alec remains a question mark. And you could always have sublet" "Alee Isn’t nearly the question mark be used to be." she said slowly. -And subletting is a nui•anct." “What do you mean—Alee isn’t the question mark he used to be?” ”WeH, I mean John brought him back to me. Ths minute I saw John I saw Alee and I was certain again. I felt happy Not that they took so much alike,” she went on. “but- " ghe had suddenly Mtptaas.

Reni Board To Be Named For County County Separated From Allen County John E Wiliam*, area rent office director-attorney, stated today that he had received word from the national <oordinator for rent advisory boards in Washington. D. C. to the effect that Governor Gates has Indicated that he doe* not wish to make nomination* for members to serve on the rent advisory board* in the various defense-rental area* in the stale of Indiana A* a result of the governor’s notice, the responsibility of securing nominee* to fill vacancies on rent advisory boards now rest* with the local people through the area rent director. Mr. Williams stated that the Fort Wayne area, comprised of Allen county, lias been separated from the Adam* county area and that the rent advisory board as originally constituted, with one memtier from ilecatur representing Adams county released in order to form a Iroard In itself to act autonomously for the Adams county urea, has created a vacancy on the Fort Wayne board which must lie filled The action also ha* made it necessary to obtain four new member* to make up the balance of the Adams county board. Under the federal law. the rent advisory boards must consist of at least five member* who represent affected Interests of the area The board ia to consist of one tenant representative, one landlord representative and three public interests representatives. Since Brie* Koop has been released from the Fort Wayne rent advisory board lu order to create a separate board in Decatur, it la now necessary to replace him on the Fort Waytie Board with a public interest representative. A public interest representative is considered to be a person who will represent the viewpoints of the public at large. In this group are to be found individuals such as leaders ut veteran*’ organizations who are concerned with the housing problem of returned (1. I.'s indust-

"I’ll come," be said. “Will you? Good. When?" ■Any time you invite me." He reached out both hi* hands, took hers, and drew her up. "But 1 still think you're in love with a dream." And. without warning, he had put his arms around her and had pulled her close and kissed her. He had kissed her several , times in several different ways and when he had let her go, hla i eye* were hot and curious “Doesn't I that wake you up?" he had asked, i It hadn’t She was sorry, aha ; *aid, but it hadn't "Don’t be sorry," he had told her, aa he had told her one* bo- • for*. “Til not bother you again It's up to you now."
