Dramatic Measures Are Used ■ If Heart Stops In Suraery 'Hi

By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. IN recent years, many people have been saJWd after their hearts have stoppec beating We read in the about people Whose, heart® st, °P suddenly during surglca| operations. Some of these people hever had any heart or lung trouble before the operation took place. i It appears that no special anesthetic. type of operation, or method of operating can be singled out as a cause of heart stoppage Most of these. cases are thought to be due to a form of heart and blood vessel collapse which may result from a type of allergy or from sensitivity to the anesthetic. Speed Essential In treating this condition, the feurgeon must act* with great speed If too much time passes between the heart stoppage and the beginning of treatment, the body and brain may be damaged beyond repair The surgeon, therefore, has but a few minutes -h to use his skill and knowledge. As soon as the heart stops, he immediately opens the chest and / massages the heart- The patient is made to breathe by artificial respiration oxygen under pressure, through a tube'inserted jp the windpipe. An anti c10.4-is

necessary to move them to a hospital. In a number of the cases, . medical care can be administered by a nurse, on orders from the county physician. The employment of a nurse at the institution would provide the care needed by patients and reduce hospital expenses. o o Gov. Schricker doesn't believe that a state, wide primary to nominate state officials and delegates 'to national conventions is necessary in,lndiana. In reply to a‘ query, the state's chief execu- . five said that the convention system was good enough and that he did not favor a change. The . secret voting machine installed .for the delegates gives free expression for those who are nominated to fill their party tickets and unless a primary would be final in naming candidates, there is no. need to have both an election and a convention. In ; the state’s first experience with a primary, the plan didn't prove .satisfactory. ‘ . o ■ "O— l ■ , I »,|j I'l - I Ten years ago today Bataan fell to the Japanese. It was a , day in American history. The conquering Japanese started their infamous march of Amdii- * ■ ■ \■ * i '‘' can prisoners, prodding .the exhausted eoldiefs with bayonet. Right then, American spiri|. asserted itself and thd decision was made that our troops would avenge the wrong. Incident with the fall of the island, G.l.'s held the fortress of Corregidor loir three months, being out numbered ten-to-one in manpower. ( In so doing they wrote an imperishable saga of heroism, climaxed in retaking of the island and winning the war against the enemy that started with the bombing of Pearl Harbor. The south is recognizing its obligation to educate its negro citizens satisfactorily. In the last It) years, according to a survey made by the New <York Times, the progress has bet n remarkable. ' In Florida white teachers ayejr]aged $1,006 annual salary, negro teachers $597. Now both get the same amount, estimated at s2.7Bf>. . \ During the present academic year Florida plans to spend $9,000,00(1 for white schools-and $10,000,009 for negro schools. The Alabanja slate superintendent of education reports that the salaries pg|d negro teachers have incrraMq fiyk-fdld, since 1912. A like reporj v-)incs from Arkari-as.

drug, heparin, is injected into the . blood in the heart to prevent from sludging or clotting during the treatment. . J Heart Action Stimulated Once the oxygen supply is controlled by massaging the heart and artificial respiration, heart action may be stimulated! with an instrument that gives the heart muscle an electric shock. This jogs it into normal beating. ‘ Recoveries from heart stoppage' during surgery are thus bfousht about by a combination of the new’er medical and surgical methods. . r ’ i .

The conversation nung fire dangerously, and then: Helbise said. “Maybe Mr. Newman would sing for us.” ! ' “1 ain’t bring any music,” Joseph said, with a disappointed look. "That doesn’t make any difference," Henn said. “Miss Lemay can'play anything in any key. You just tell her what you’d like to sing.” Joseph leapt to his feet.;"How ’bout ’l’ll Sing Thee Sorigs of Araby’?" he suggested. “Or maybe you like something popular?” “That would be fine," Heloise said> spinning the piano stool and sitting down to play. Joseph's voice was a strong one and there whs nothing timid about his use of it There was a strongly African tinge to the words but that was to be expected of anyonejwith his accent. \ j “That was fine, my boy,” Henri said, and Leonie smiled faintly in encouragement, “Now you ought to sing something else." Joseph grinned delightedly. “Then You’ll Remember Me’?” he ventured. "Key of D.” Except for cracking slightly on a note, Joseph did very well with that one, and he showed mo' pleasure. But he had the grace’to suggest that Henn must sing! “Oh, nobody wants to hear an old man," Henri said, moving over toward the piano. .Z “Sho we does,” Joseph said. Heloise smiled at Leonie, and Leonie said, ”1 haverir heard you sing for ages, Unckh" "ym not sure I’m in good voice," Hefirl sank “But I’ll try. Heloise, would you play ’Within These Sacrejr Dwellings’ ? You know, Joseph From The Magic Flute” /He drew himself up, lowered his /Chin, shook hands with himself across his lower chest, and began. This time It was Joseph’s turn to look knowing. But fie was absorbed, and as the great voice rolled out of the little man he shook his head In admiration. { When he had finished Heloise rose. “Thank you forisinging for us, Joseph," she said. "And now if you’ll excuse us old people . . .” Outside tn the hall Henri whispered a protest, “Do you think we ought to leave them unchaperoned like that?” "For Heaven’s sake, Brother," Heloise said, "what are you talking about ? Anyway, you never thought of that when the young ; men came to see Leonie before." Henri, grumbling, gave in.

Then I could begin to do something." “What will you do?” Leonie inquired. \ ■ Joseph, like most young men, could be remarkably fluent about his future. “I like to,be a singer,” he said. “Everybody say 1 got a good voice and there ain’t so many tenors. I got to git up to New York some time and hear Caruso. They say he got a wonderful voice. I hear some records of i|t but you can’t tell by what a man sing into a horn." “My uncle loves records," Leonie said.

Gyirls just ought to git married and have i a family.” “I don’t know why women can’t do the same as men.” "Don’t seem natural to me,” Joseph said. “I guess I’m just an old stick in the mud, but I never hear of gyirls making plans like that. Not it they pretty." Leonie ignored the compliment "1 might be a poet,” she mused, “but 1 never seem to think of any poetry to write. And I wish 1 could write songs like Aunt Heloise.” “You mean ’e compose?” Joseph asked. * "Well, she makes up lots of songs. She can’t write them down. She doesn’t read music, you know." i ■ i “She ought to git somebody to write ’em down,” Joseph said, his professional instincts wounded by this waste of production. ’Tell you what, when I git to singing in concerts I’ll sing her songs.
