A Vaccine To Help Figh t T B

1 By Harman N. Bundeeen, M. 0. IN spite of the fact that ire know Ita ranee and hare better methode of treatment than ever before In history, tuberculosis still rontlaaea to be one of our Important health problems For yean, scientist* have dreamed of producing Increased resist sect to the germs which cause tbte disease by means of vaccination. If thia could be done, they reasoned, exposure to the germs would be lees dangerous Young Infante, particularly saaceptlMa to the disease, could be protected daring this early, haxardone period even though they lived In crowded quarters where tuberculosis germs were rife. It would also be of value among young adults, such as doctors and nurses, who are repeatedly exposed to germs by reason of their occupation To be useful, of course, the vactinaUon would have to be given Itefere tuberculosis infection was actually acquired, for there Is no evidence that any vaccine, however powerful. woeH alter tba worse of a disease which Is already present. This was the dream and. In IMd. a couoto of French Scientists took the first stop forward toward real Ixing It Thirteen years later a vacclbe. called BCO. made from tubafcuMais gonna obtained from cows. developed The germi used were so treated aa to be weakened but not killed. But. in science, the gap betwees a dream and its cbmpiete realise tlcn Is loo« and it was not until recently that the vaccine was used in the failed States and then onlj 4o a limited extent ft is ft'so bj placing a to* drops of vaccine <n

installed the devices. Maybe Elkhart is paying Its increased Mpenses from the nickels and dimes charged for the parking spaces. Parking is limited to two hours in any one space in the band instru ment city. o o The Republican congress which adjourned without doing anything to combat the rising cost of living, evidently was asleep as fsr as public sentiment Is concerned A recent Gallop Poll shows that 56 percent of the persons interviewed favor price controls.

, Only 35 percent were against rationing and controls. In their quest of victory, the Republican leaders might have missed the boat. oo The radio industry is about to provide the public with a gadget which just a few years ago was encountered only in tho more Imaginative {Notion. Thio is a two-way radio simple enough for common use and small enough to be carried as conveniently ae a purse or a camera. And If you thought the country-line telephone was a gossip-spreader, just wslt until the neighbors get going with this new radio system. o o Friends of better race relations may give little thought to such matters as professional baseball, but one baseball happening of 1918 has done more good for friendly tolerance between white and Negro than almost anything else for years. This is the signing by the Cleveland Indians, of the vet eran Negro pitcher. Satchel Paige, and the reception which has greet ed his appearance throughout the league. Everywhere crowds have swarmed out to see "old Batch" and to wish him well. o - -o The public in anxious to see wbat Perryoplie. Pa., a town of 1,300, does with the ten million dollars willed to ft by a former resident of the municipality. Like hamlets of its size, there are many civic needs and If the "city dads have a free hand in spending the jack-pot. It's our guess that many improvements will creep In. that In a few years will become mere monuments to public service. If

U were our responsibility, we'd like to try to build a model town, with wide streets, properly lighted and the create a civic spirit that would guarantee the place best to live.
