New Drugs Are Helpful In Disorders Os The Skin

By Herman N. Buntiesen, M.|>. TWO newly discovereddrugs. A]CTH and cortisone. are offering \ rilief to sufferers from many diseases. - ; x '' ? Diseases of the skin include some of’the commonest and most annoying disorders, such as acife, which eventually disappear. At the other ektreme. include some of the deadliest .of all diseases. Skin diseases also cause more o,r less serious social problems for the patient, since some of the lesions are on surfaces whore they can be .seen. I am sure, therefore, that many readers will welcome the news con-, earning effects of the new drugs. In recent tests. ACTH and cortisone wjere used in treating 1!) different sljin disorders. Some conditions that are most difficult to control showed beneficial results. For example. five cases of lupus erythemdtdsus. an incurable disease. were treated in this way with, good restilts. • ■ *■'' J ' ?i(Some patients in this group suffer’ d from I>emphigus, a disease which causes .large hemorrhagefilled blisters, and is alat> incurable.

Doughty Windton Churchill, Great Britain’s greatest premier, is in Washington conferring with President Truman and congres- . sional leaders. Mr. Churchill is probably not the d-orld figure he was when Great Britain still had its empire, but he is a fighter and statesman; He believes ih the; comradeship of th^English-speak-! ing nations and luhderstanding be- jl tween the United States and Eng-jl land.

Treatment must be continued over a long period: ;m;o;st patients have a relapine after*the treatment is stopped. ; Howevef, th©; drugs do offer new (hope of relieving the distress-] log symptoms for a.| considerable lengtji of time. It is also important to note that the: drugs niay rarely produce various complications ]in certain patients, such as swelling. *of the ankles, darkening of the skin and some > confusion in thinking.

His movements were deliberate rather than uncertain, though there was uncertainty in his mind. Maybe he ought not to go to the front s door. Maybe he ought to go around to the i pack, after alt It was hard to tell When you were a Captain In the Army you didn’t feel like you had to come into a place the kitchen way even if your mother did work there.

He jhadn’t ; gone' to the Moores’ apartment that time. Just telephoned ’em. Didn’t know why. Bashful, maybe. Not used to his uniform and rank. Kind of between hay and grass.

But tpday only one stranger seemed to be up there under the wistaria vine, and as Virginia called and waved a beckoning arm, Barth, who was farsighted, said, "It’s Sam. Mary’s Sam.

It was Donald’s idea, though — I’m going to turn the j Youth Group over to his leadership in a couple;of weeks anyway, you know—and he thought Sam might come to the meeting two weeks from now. That gives me a chance to announce it next Sunday. And as Sam nas a month's leave he can do it, all right. It won’t hurt the boys and girls,” he ad<|ed. “Hurt them! It’s a part of their Christian education." ’ “That’s what Jl mean.” i!

“And they’ll be interested. Because he’s been everywhere. He’ll bring the world right to them. They’ll like that. Korea, Okinawa, Arizona, Louisiana — that was a funny story about the swamps and the alligators and the leaking boat. At least he made it funny, though it must nave been harrowing. He tells a good story, Barth." “Yes. He has humor.”, "Are you going to check on his talk?” “Yes. £ertainly. But he’s to be trusted. He’s!—aware. He’s humble and proud. A good combination. H|e won’t go wrong any more than he did today. Did you notice his manners? There wasn’t a thing to be desired. He accepted service, and gave it! toth the srnne degree of ease, deference, and appreciation." He paused a moment. "I want his appearance before the Youth Group to be an opportunity for him, and for them.” Constance| was silent I 'a moment ••}’m sorry Anne wasn't there. She would have peen interested." “Yes.
