New 7 Treatment Os Amebiasis

By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. ' MODERN drugs are now clearing up cases of amebic dysentery that formerly offered littleTiope. This disease is an infection of the bowel by very tiny animals known as amebas. It results in a severe diarrhea with bleeding, and' mucus and pus in the stool. It is a difficult Infection to cure, and may remain chronic for a number of years. The condition, as a rule, Is easily cleared up when treated early. " \ '- . Some experts believe that as high as 15 to 20 per cent of the population of this country may be suffering from some form of infection by amebas. Usually, this type of infection can be detected by taking a smear or sample of a warm stool and examining it Under the microscope for amebas or amebic cysts. It has been estimated that from five to ten per cent of thd people have ameba in their bowel movements but are not suffering from any Illness. May Infect Liver Amebiasis generally confines Itself to the large Intestine, but frequently It invades other parts of the body. The infection travels to the liver, and may cause a severe disturbance of the liver tissues, such, as an abscess.

Infection of the lung with ameba is another complication that is not too infrequent. Many times a person with this type of infection seems to have many of the signs and symptoms qf pneumonia, including high f ever, chilis, and an increase in the white cells of the blood. In these Cases, a chest X-ray may be helpful in discovering an amebic type of pneumonia. \ New Drug Effective t At one time, this sort of infection was nearly always fatal, and there was little hope that the patient would recover*. But now. doctors are getting good results with a drug known as emetine. This is injected into a vein, and has proved very efficient in clearing up the infection. In addition, the new antibiotics, known as aureomycin, Chloramphenicol, and terramycin, have, proved very effective in clearing up pneumonia caused by amebic infection. !i ' 7/ i QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS T.

SYNOPSIS i After years of absence. Blaise Randell is returning by stage coach to his California npeh. His pal. Hal Kirig. accompanies him. Blaise dreams of wedded bliss ahead with ms old sweetheart. Melanie. When a coarse fellow passenger tries to press his attentions on the only young lady riding in the coach with them, Hal and Blaise spring to her defense. As they push onward, bandits seeking a gold consignment, hold up the coach, killing the guard. Then Randell is assigned to guard the even though he confides to the driver that he is an ex-convict, the charge against him. murder. CHAPTER THREE NOW SIX men walked steadily toward Blaise. Thejuhad apparently waited for the coach at the blacksmith shop. Five of them Blaise didn’t know, five hard-eyed men who walked with their hands .swinging free near bolstered Colts, five who watched him warily As they approached. They came in a half circle that converged on him. The sixth Blaise knew, and felt again the terrific impact of the sheer size of the man, a feeling he had not known for a decade. Leonis still towered head and shoulders above the ordinary man, Blaise whs tall, butv he still had to lift his eyps to meet Leonis’. Hercule Leonis, owner of Scorpion, had once claimed mastership of the whole Valley that stretched twenty miles eastward and ten to the north. And he had controlled it with violence, with guns, with fire, with arrests and jail, with bought judges and juries. Now Blaise faced him once more and his hand instinctively lifted to his gtln. , “You have come back, Randell.” Blaise nodded. “I’m back.” Suddenly anger swept him. “Pardoned, Hercule. You couldn’t buy a governor, could you?” ~ “You speak foolish . . . now, like you did then." He glanced at Hal, who had straightened and had edged toward Blaise to back him against the five. The big man's lips curled. “You have returned to Calabasas. You will leave again. The stage will take you.” Blaise shook his head. “Guess again, Hercule. You railroaded me out once.” v “I do not guess. Return to the stage. It will take you away, safe ahd alive. If you do not, then we shall see what is to happen." ■’He ain’t fooling," Hal said in a low voice. “Give me the two to the left and the one in" the middle.” Blaise motioned him to silence.’ The giant waited patiently. Blaise sensed the loafers who stood beyond the line of fire on the far side of the store. It had always been that way. When Leonis walked the town, the rest stepped aside, giving him the street. “There is no place for you here.” Leonis said abruptly. “There has been peace since you left, but you will bring us trouble . . . like the old days.” “You’ve had peace and I bring trouble!” Blaise exclaimed, his voice mocking. “You had Jt because you drove eve r y decent, homesteader and rancher out of the Valley one way or the, other:

I’m coming back to people I know, to land 1 own. Can you stop me?" Leonis shrugged. “There are no people \ you know here any longer. They have gone across the mountains to the Conejo or the Simi Valley.” “All gone?” Blaise demanded. “All,” Leonis nodded. “Nonp of them are left. Yoil'did not see A place as you came along the road, eh ? Nothing between the road and the hills above the pass at Chatsworth? They once tried to build the homes, eh? Where are they now ?’’ ! Blaise waited. He sensed Hal beside him. The five gunhawks stood frozen, also waiting. Only Leonis moved, swinging one giant arm in a half circle toward the hills. “The Valley is empty. Calabasas is, quiet now, and that is good. I prink that maybe five men arc not enough that! maybe! you go. So there arc others hidden so . . . and so.” The stage driver lifted his voice from the canopied porch of the store. “Hey, you can’t chase that man out! He broke up a robbery at the Sheep Pdn station.” Leonis shook his head. “That I am glad to* hear. But still he goes, Perhaps there is no law in Calabasas, as they say, but the town will not have the murderer return. He leaves.” , Blaise suddenly laugh cd, a mirthless sound that brought Leonis to a full turn. For the first time he showed signs of anger, his chin jutting, his eyes, flashing. “It is funny, eh?” Blaise nodded. “It is, In away, this welcome-home party. You’ll always have your gun hands, Hercule, you’ll always depend on force. . . . Nothing else.” “It has always worked. It always wilt I learn that when I was a boy herding sheep in the Pyrenees. I learn it when T come to America and then to California. You see how it is now. There is you, there is me ... but you are alone. I have men. Who will live the longest, eh?” ! j Blaise considered it. “A point," he conceded. Leonis made an impatient gesture and turned to the driver. “You are late. They will expect you at the next station." He threw his ultimatum over his shoulder to Blaise as he walked, away. “You will leave Calabasas, Randell, by this stage. My men either see you leave drop you in the dust.” He strode on, unhurried, a huge and majestic man. Ruthless, Blaise thought as he watched him, a man always sure of himself. Blaise turned to the five men. They still waited. He heard Hal stir behind him. - “How you calling it?" Hal asked. •- ’ ■ “We’ll look over Conejo," Blaise said softly, then lifted his voice. “But I’ll be hock *

One Driver Killed As Autos Collide i LAPORTE, Ind. UP — \ Gene Grunert, 23, South Bend, was killed today when his auto struck another driven by Kenneth Blackburn, LaPorte, pn U. S. 20 near Rolling Prairie. Grunert’s companion, Richard Vander ’Hagen, 24, South Bend, was injured critically. ■ ,h • ' . Schricker Thinks Stevenson To Run ? ~ P ■’ ! ‘ . CHICAGO, UP — Gov. Henry Schricker after la breakfast conference with Gov. Adlai Stevenson of Illinois that hb thought Stevenson would alcept a Democratic convention draft for the presidential nomination. , Stevenson’s reaction to Sehricker’s. statement was, “He’s been saying that for six months.;' Stevenson was host at a breakfast for more than a score of Democratic governors.

“We’ll be\ waiting," one of the five said. Blaise climbed up in the high seat!. The driver scurried to the coach. The five gun me n still waited. The driver picked up the reins, lifted the whip from the socket and it cracked like a pistol shot. The stage rolled out into the street. •’We’ll be back," Blaise said. As the stage rolled along the driver skid, “You’ve got one man that nates you complete and thorough, friend. He throws a wide loop in this part of California. I’d worry some if a man like that was after my hide.” Blaise snapped, "You let me worry ... if I want to.” “And welcome!" the driver exclaimed, “though I’ve heard tell he’s had trouble lately.” •‘Trouble?” Blaise lifted his head. < “What I heard. Nothing you Could put your finger on, except Whispers and guesses. He ain’t fighting and grabbing like he used to, I hear.” Blaise slightly lifted one eyebrow. “When Leonis stops grabbling, the North Pole will get warm.” ? “Maybe, maybe . > . like I said, it’s just wh»t I hear. Most likely there’s nothing to it.” It seemed to Blaise that the rim to the next station would last forever. He still smarted under the affront at Calabasas and now he wanted to be off the stage, to find Melanie and his friends, to feel that at last in some small measure he had placed the grim years at San Quentin behind him. But the past rose to haunt him again. ; A man had been killed in Chatsworth, A man with whom Blaise had admittedly \ quarreled. But Blaise had been riding the Santa Monica canyons when it had happened, riding alone. On his return to Calabasas he had been seized by Leonis’ gunhawks, thrown into a barn for safekeeping overnight, and then driven to Los Angeles for formal arrest. Blaise had written to Melanie and her father, Paul Case. They had appeared, along with some of the others who had been fighting off Leonis’ attacks on their, Valley homesteads. But they could only testify to Blaise’s character. The prosecutor proved that none of > them had known Blaise’s whereabouts at the time of the killing. It had been very easy then to ahow motive ahd even opportunity on the strength of his absence. Blaise’s face grew warm and ‘he writhed inwardly, as they approached the stage station, A combination hotel, case and bar, a long two-storyed building, white and clean in the shade of the big oaks. Blaise climbed down from the seat, following the driver. “I rode further than I Intended,” he said shortly. “How much do I owe ?” “Nothing! We owe you!” CL “Forget It.”
