By HERMAN N. BUNDEIEN, M.O. THE atomic age has not only produced devastating weapons to destroy people, but has also contributed to life with new types of. drugs. These are radioactive, and hplp in diagnosing and aur- •. Ing diseases. f Radioactive iodine is being used in the treatment and diagnosis of thyroid disturbances. . Other radioactive drugs are used to diagnose different types of brain tumors. (*- Relatively Cheaper Recently the chemical cobalt | has proved that' in its radioactive I.; form it, too, can benefit mankind. ; This drug is known as radio- ‘ :obalt, or cobalt-60. .■ . Radiocobalt is efficient and r- relatively cheaper than radium. ‘ tri fact, in many characteristic*, I t appears more suitable than f radium. •A good example of its use 1$ in . ? :ancer of the cervix. The cervix , i s the bottom portion of the , i vomb, through which the baby 1 i lasses at birth. In treating this ype of cancer, it has been found / t >hat radiocobalt can be used with • greater ease and accuracy than | b possible with fixed needles jacked with radium. Less Permanent Damage Radiocobalt is rapidly eliinilated by the body and not stored i . here like radium, so there :is less 'hance of permanent damage to

■ . ' ; payrolls and personal income. If he could just find a wiay to pick the money off trees, he might con- b vince congress that payments should be boosted. ' \ U ?■ I r'! bl / ' —XO 0— ’;■ . I The re-election of directors and "officers of the Fifet Jitate Bank in annual meetings yesterday rounds out another year of service of this financial institution in this community. This bank is the depository fo’r? (nose than 12million dollars of private and public funds, i very eotpmendable financial standing, wbi/ch also bespeaks well for the: stability of -individuals and bpsimma concerns in this city. ! . > {\l 1 "■ sn. "a ’’ ' ’ ' i . -Au— A- - The Indiana legislature should give the people the t pportunity to vote on a proposed constitutional amendment which would lower the voting age to 18 or 19. Aside from fee fact that 19-year olds are calif dtp seryp heir Coun- ’ try in uniform, teen-apers should be entitled to .vote Itrecause they have young minds and he future is for them. This nation is challenging ground fob- youth and decisions made today affect those of a generation hence. It would lie wejl to gjye more* balance t*j| national thougl t by oerniitting the bojs and girts of 19 and up to vote in our elections. • • T ’ A ’ A. ; i \yhile local friends ind members of,the Chamber of Commerce regret to see Walter E. Ford leave tlife city, all wish ulm great success in liis new post as executive secretary 6f the Chamber of Commerce in Connersville. Mr. . Ford was selected by business ’and. industrial leaders of the flourishing Indiana city to h 'head their Chamber of Colmin erce and ) it can be said that his new ■ x tion is a promotion in this highly interesting and vital field of community work. Mr. Ford has been a diligept arid effective leader in Decatur business and retail cir-l cles. H|e cooperated fully with; tht retail division and other local committees and winked untiringly fdr the community’s good. Connersville a rapidly growing industniil seat of about 18,000 pdp-‘ yiation. where opportunity will be given Mr. Ford to furth’r stretch his wings in the field of public relations work, in vrlaich he r : ; ; i N■ ■ ■ seems admirably adapted.

tissues. Once radium Renters the body it takes years fop the body to eliminate it. In fapt, radium can be detected in ] bodies of people many hundreds of years after they were exposed to it. The new drug can ajso be used in treating tumors of the sinuses and bladder. Tumors seem to respond just as well to cobalt-6C as to radium combined with high-powered X-rays.! I Methods of Usage A tumor can also be reached more effectively with the methods of using the cobalt It can be put up In need|es or rubber containers like radium, or can be used in the form of beads or ip metal tubes. I i | Through atomic research the amount of life-saving radioactive drugs In the world has thus been increased many hundreds and thousands 4- ©! times. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS P.
