One Complication That May Follow Use Os Antibiotics

By MMMKIL BUNOESm B*. BOMB *t the newer antibiotic drugs am cause severe diarrhea if they are used for a long time. This la another reason for, relying on your doctor’s directions, and not using these drugs of your own accord. These same drugs have worked wonder* in ridding the body of severe infections, such as pneumonia, kidney infections and many other maladies which were difficult to treat until now. The drugs which may cause diarrhea include a few of th* newer antibiotics, such as aureomycin, chloramphenicol, and terramydn. Greater Amount of Fat Tn this type of diarrhea, the stools contain a greater amount of fat than normal. Usually, the disorder grows worse when the person eats fatty food, and is often relieved when he switches to a diet low in fats. According to some doctors, the disorder is a sort of by-product when the antibiotics destroy germs in the bowel. A type of mold, or yeast, called Candida albicans, also thrives In this tract in competition with the germs. By removing large nnMbers of germs, the drugs really help the Kim;

J ami shows signs of grass roots *■ party strength. Sen. Kerr of Oklahoma is in the field, as is Sen. Russell of Georgia. Mr. Truman’s decision not to run may placate the south and avoid the rift that had been predicted between northern and southern Democrats on the civil rights bill 1 ,! o——Q—- — •.■ J J : The sports world lost a colorful figure and Indiana a leading citizen in the death of Bo McMillen, hero of the football field and one of the leading coaches in the country. “Bo,” as he was aCfeo tionately and nationally known, gained, his first fame aa a player on Centre College’s eleven when thfk “Praying Colonels” defeated Han’ ard. He was coach at Indiana university from 1934 to 1947, later becoming a coach in professional football. His heart and mind were with Indiana and he returned to Bloomington when he learned he .had an incurable illness. “Bo” never used a “cuss word” In his life and always endeavored to set a worthy example among his players and the youth of the country. o o 1 ■ / W Railroad Terminals:— “Chicago is more of a. barrier to commerce than the frontiers of Europe.” In this picturesque phrase Robert R. Young, board chairman of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway, criticizes the present railroad set-up in Chicago, with its many stations and the slow time that the trains make in crawling through congested areas. Trucks by-pass large cities, says Young; why not the railroads? He says there should be one union station, located in a suburb, where access would be easy. 1 Young has other ideas: A central reservation bureau, sb that a passenger need not go from office to office. Even more novel is the development of a hybrid truck with retractable gear, which could run either on rails or on highways. Young is no visionary. He (has refreshing new ideas for modernizing some of the practices of railroading. He brought about through passenger service from coast to coast by his advertisement: “A Hog Can Travel From Coast to Coast Without Changing » . LL ? : 1 j Cars, But You Cant’!”; But it is a more difficult task to rebuild our big cities. “

mold multiply, until finally it infects the bowel. Others believe the diarrhea is an unusual form of sprue, a deficlency disease that causes diarrhea. They are of the opinion that the new drugs cause these symptoms by Interfering with the formation of certain vitamins in the intestine, especially follc acid and others of the vitamin B group. These vitamins are formed by the action of bacteria in the intestines, and It is thought the antibiotics destroy these important bacteria along with pothers which cause Inf ection. I To prevent this diarrhea, a doctor can Inject liver extract into a muscle of a person taking the antibiotics for mor* than a short time. > - j These new drugs are thus safe to take, but only under proper supervision. ii ■ \ p ; QUESTIONS AND ANSWKBS • M.

1952 Corn Acreage Lowered In County Farmers Urged To Reconsider Plans Winfred L. Gerke, chairman of the Adams county agricultural mobilization committee, announced today that Adams county farmers have indicated that their 1952 corn acreage will be below the acreage planted in 1951. He urges farmers to reconsider their plans for corn acreage knd to plant as much corn as possible and to take into consideration that one acre of ccrrn is worth acres of oats, insofar as feed value is com cerned. The state of Indiana has been given a goal of 6 percent over the acreage planted l last year. Indiana's production of corn makes an important part of the national supply, and is used to feed not only Indiana livestock, but is shipped to other states' where grain production is not great enough to supply the need. Gerke stated that farmers should not lose sight of the fact that when it comes io feeding most kinds of livestock, “Our basic crop is corn and unless we plant more corn this spring and harvest more corn next fall, we are weakening the foundation of our feeding structure,” he concluded. New Flood Warnings Issued In Midwest More Than 2,000 Persons Homeless ' ( .By United Press Warnings of new floods for the midwest spurred emergency efforts today while martial law and elean-up operations reigned in the wake of the season’s first big flood spell.
