Use Os Alcohol Inhalation In Treatment Os Lung Edema

By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.B. ALCOHOL vapor Is now being used to check edema of the lung. This is a condition in which a dangerous amount of fluid collects in the lung, oozing from blood vessels into the tiny air sacs of the lung. Usually, people suffering from this disorder have severe shortness of breath, and spit up bloodtinged, frothy fluid. The causes of this condition are many. It may result from heart disease of any type, or may . occur in any form of head injury. Severe lung disease, such as : pneumonia, and severe forms of allergy and serum sickness, are other causes. Edema is sometimes .* seen following blood transfusions. In the past, various drugs have been used to relieve edema of the lung. The main idea in employing them has been to reduce the amount of fluid so that the blood can receive the proper anumnt of oxygen and carry enough cf thio vital gas to tho body tissues. The usual treatment is with large doses of morphine with atropine. Oxygen, under proper pressure, is L hMom •* are large

The change, effected by a constitutional amendment early in ; 1533, was long supported by the late Senator George W. Norris of Nebraska. His purpose was to eliminate as far ais possible the larne-duek sessions of Congress.

CHAPTER FIFTEEN • THE DUMMY pursed his Ups, ! puffed but tus cheeks. His eyes hadn't left the bills Liddell had put on the desk. Finally, he nodded. i , ‘“Good." Liddell got to his feet. “You have toy office number and toy home?” The Dummy nodded, disturbing the rolls of fat under his chin. j’ ! “If! Tin not nome, call me at the office. I have an answering service. They'D take the message,” LiddeU told him. i The Dummy reached out for the bills, folded them lovingly, slid them into tus jacket pocket. “You should be hearing from me within the next three or four hours.” He leaned back, touched the tips of his fingers across his middle. “Lunfar is a bad boy, LiddelL A very bad boy.” “Maybe I can persuade him to see the error of his ways," LiddeU got up, helped Muggsy to her feet. “I’m counting on you, Dummy. Don't let me down.” The fat man nodded. "We’U do our best.” He reached over, jabbed at the button on his desk with a pudgy forefinger. “Yeah, Dummy?" the rasping voice of the guard at the front door came through a hidden (Speaker. • “Mr; Liddell and Miss Kiely are on their way out.” “Right.” There was a click and the connection went dead. “I'll wait for your call, Dummy,” Liddell told him. He led the way out of the office through the large outer room. The derelicts were still strewn along the wall, almost as though no one had moved since LiddeU a|nd Muggsy had last passed through. t Downstairs, the little man with the rasping voice was waiting. “Didn’t take you long. Must have been a cash job,” he approved. “Never takes the Dummy long to make up his mind when the cash is on the line.” He opened the door for them, watered them through. “Tell your old man hello for me, Miss Kiely. Don't get to see him much any more.” The air in the street was a bracing relief after the closeness of the Dummy's “school.” LiddeU caught Muggsy’s elbow, steered her toward the Bowery. , “Think Dummy can find Lunfar, Jqhnhy?” the blonde asked/ Liddell grunted. “If anyone can, I he can. His boys are all over town, i know everybody. Thcy’U turn him ■ U P-” “Where arc we going now?” “You have a job, remember? I’to going to find you\a cab and ?rhd you to work.

Muggsy consulted tne tiny baguette on her wrist. ‘Tt’s early,” she protested. “It’s hardly four and I’m not due until 5:30.” LiddeU shrugged. “Okay, baby. If you want to tag along, there are still a couple of social calls I’ve got to make.” “On whom?” Liddell snrugged. “We’ve got a choice, looks like. There are three I names we've dug up in this mess so far. Lunfar, Hunt Brin, and Ben Ceria. Dummy’s handling Lunfar, Brin probably lives uptown 1 and Ceria has a place in. China--1 town—only a few blocks from here.” “Then it’s Ceria?” < j “Right. Let’s go down and see what it’s like in Chinese'Heaven!” The Chinese Heaven was a bijg, gaudy three-story building erected in the heart of Chinatown by an architect with a fixation, on the subject of pagodas. Its front wits lavishly smeared with gilt and garish gingerbread; a hidden amplifier spilled tinny music into the street. A huge sign announced “Chinese and American menu. AU legal beverages.” Johnny Liddell and Muggsy Kiely shouldered their way along the narrow winding street toward the ornate, brightly colored canopy that proclaimed “Chinese Heaven.” A doorman, dressed ip loose fitting Chinese robes that failed to disguise the shoulders of a professional bouncer, stood guard at the door. He twisted a battered face into a reasonable facsimile of a smile as he pushed the door open for them. > . , | A. red carpeted, dimly lit hajjlway led to a long, brightly lighted, modern bar. At the far end a couple was huddling over what appeared to be martinis, while a slightly faded blonde sat foriornly, toying with a half empty glass. Liddell piloted Muggsy to a pair of empty bar stools. \ The Chinese bartender sidled m, swabbed the bar with a I damp cloth, waited. “Rye and water for me. Ginger ale for the) lady," Liddell tqld him. While the bartender was selecting the bottles from the beckbar, Liddell looked around. The bar ran what was apparently the width <|>f the building. At the far end, a small passageway ran to the door marked “Private.” To the left, a large staircase led up to what wete apparently the public dining rooms on the second and third floors. The bartender slid their ; drinks in front of them, picked up a dollar bill and a quarter from the money Liddell dropped on the bar, shuffled off to the other end of the bar. “Not a bad set-up,” Liddell con mented. “Wonder if that ’s v.herc ■ : ■j i I “ A.A. i I .

CHAPTER SIXTEEN THE ROOM beyond public bar was a sharp contrast to the garishness and pseudo-Chmese decor of the rest ot the building ft wajj small, comfortable. A gray-gree-n carpet covered the floor from wall to wall, giving it a subdued, soothing quality. A number of easy chairs were set around the room, and in the' corner, behind a large executive desk, a man sat playing solitaire. Hfe looked up as Liddell came in, squinted at him nearsightedly. He was out of place m the restfulness of the surroundings. His thin, pinched face was heavily marked, his left eye twitched endlessly as he studied ths private ; detective. He sat in his short sleeves, shoulder holster in place, the heavy butt of a .45 sticking out. An immaculate pearl gray femora was perched on the back of- his head. “He he.eled, Sing?" he wanted to know. The guard stepped up behind Liddell, jabbed the. snout of his gun in his bafck, fanned him expertly. ' He Slid the .45 out of its holster, pushed it across the desk to Ceria. Liddell grinned hufnoriessly. “That’s twice in twenty-four hours somebody has taken that gun away from inc. The next time I pass it over it’ll be one slug at a tiine.” “You’ll scare us to death,” Ceria snorted. He picked up the .45, examined it, laid it on the corner lof the desk.: "Wait outside, Sing, this won’t take long.” He waited until the door had closed behind the small Chinese. "Okhy. What’s | on your mind ? What’s the idea of busting-in here like this?” t : ; “I wanted to apk you a couple .Os questions?’ ♦The left eye twitched maddeningly.; "About what?” "Murder. A client of mine named Hong, 1 understood he was an associate bi yours." ' Ceria picked a ragged cigar butt from the ashtray at his elbow, jammed it ! between L his teeth. "What do you mean client? You ! a peeper?” j Liddell noijded. “That’s right.” , Ceria’s thin lip twisted up in a sneer. "Go on back to peeping through keyholes; Blow.” Liddell felt through his pockets fßr ejgaretsjl found none, walked over to the desk, helped himself to a pack on the desk. “Like I said, Ilorfg was a client of mine before he was killed.

Nixon estimated today that a group headed by termer Rep.' Joseph E. Casey (DMass.) saved up to in taxes by setting up a Panamanian firm to handle five surplus tankers on which they made huge prdfi's. The California Republican male the estimate after one r of Casey’s partners, New York financier E. Stanley Klein, admitted before tie senate’s permanent committee that their corporations paid no corporate income) taxes. Another witness, New York aV torney M. Daniel Frang. testified that he advised the Cgsey group that setting up the Panamanian firm would save them corporation taxes—legally. committee dug ifito the tax aspects of the “get-rich-quick” tanker deals on which Casey and Others received a total of $3,250,000 in k ss than three ypars on investments totaling only SIOI,OOO. Nixon said the internal, revenue bureau is contesting the amounts claimed by American Overseas Tanker Corp., an American firm set up by the Casey group, fog<sr®pairs and depreciation on the ships over the 1948-50 period. 1? Nixon said that even if the figures claimed by American overseas for repairs and depreciation are accepted, the firm saved an estimated ( $857,258 over a threeyear period. He emphasized tpat I his figures are only estimates calculated roughly by a committee staff accountant. If the treasury eventually rules that the Casey group's Panamanian subsidiary.
