————A——-——- 1 t— New Antibiotic Is Effective Against Certain Germ Strbins
V By HERMAN N. BUND'SEN, M.D. ARE the antibiotics really losing their “punch”? Reports tell us that certain germs are becoming resistant to. - the more common antibiotics the more they are being used. does not necessarily mean that antibiotics must give us less pro-, tection, for there is another side .. to the picture. There is little doubt that many antibiotics are jiet to be discovered. and we are'finding new Ones right along. We are also learning i more about the right ways to use | the olddr antibiotics, such as ' penicillin. ' \ L Safest Precaution That is why we repeat, time and time again, that for the iti|dividua.', the best and safest "precaution is to avoid taking antibiotics unless prescribed .by your physician. While penicillin is perhaps one of the most widely used of these powerful drugs, there are several others which are moredesirable at times, including streptomycin, aureomycin, terramjtein and chloramphenicol. - Your doctor can chose the right b antibiotic,' and recognize when - the treatment Is not working as it should. Certain antibiotics may cause monilia (mold) infections Os the mouth, intestines, and vagina as a complication of their use. ™. Penicillin has been in use so long that certain strains of bacteria may become Resistant to it. Resistance to the other antibiotics may also be growing? Newer antibiotics also give your doctor additional weapons against the resistant germs. One antibiotic discovered recently is erythromycin. Its effectiveness seems closely similar to that of penicillin, and in certain instanced it ; '-'lz
article in the recent issue of Lite magazine explains his high standard views on government and campaigning. He said the Republican orators referred to Korea as “Mr. Truman’s war”, and that that charge was as unjust as it be to refer to the Koreah situation today as “Mr. Eisenhower’s war.” The former Illinois governor who rolled up 27 million * votes as the Democrat candidate for president against Ike’s great personality, is a statesman in the best meaning of the word. * ——-o——o——— . The Unending Stream: Almdst 1,800,000 people have escaped from the Soviet zones of Germany since the end ot World War IJ. They left their homes for many, reasons; Some of them were tired of tyranny, others feared new persecutions and still others came from behind the Iron Curtain because they believed our words about how much better life is in a democracy. Efforts have been made to help - these people. In West Berlin alone there are 74 refugee camps. A “refugee airlift” is in operation \to move refugees from Berlin to other parts of the west. But most of these measures are stopgaps and are not entirely satisfactory. Ay The place an undue \’ strath ?on the country’s Refugee camps can accqmodate ‘ I■. | ,\ i-i • I ' h just so many people and no one can regard a refugee camp as security. I 1 ' I ■ Just what can be done.is hot clear. Perhaps arrangements can 'be made to transport these people to parts of the world where they ' can make new, fresh starts. Some of them may be admitted to the United States, Canada, Australia, or South .America. But all this will take time and noney and in the meantime the. tefugees must be eared for. \ , A : \ ■ ■ i The difficulty must not be used as dn excuse for igno ring the' problem. These people lave us talk of the of freedom and have risked a great deal to.get awdy from thq Communists. We liaye a to do .everything in our power. to help.
seems at times to be even mon effective. j r\' Kills Streptococci Organisms, such as streptococci, that have proven resistant to R penicillin have been killed with this new antibiotic. They also seem to develop resistance to this drug more slowly than to .penicillin and ttwjjother antibiotics. Erythromycin has been found effective against whooping cough and diphtheria, among the contagious diseases. It helps stubborn Infections of the skin, as well as the important venereal disease, \gono'rrhea. Many cases of tonsillitis, carbuncles, and boils havi responded well to treatment with erythromycin, as have severe cases .of bone infection from osteomyelitis. The preparation is given by mouth. t Certain. Types of Pneumonia It ,is believed this drug will be particularly effedtivg against Certain types of pneumonia and A streptococcic Infections, including, the one commonly known as “strep”! sore throat. \ ' Diarrheais one of the discomforts from other antibiotic drugs easels. Erythromycin has caused practically ho cases of i diarrhea, and has shown little or no toxie effects. New drugs and more careful use of the older ones are thus one of the answers of science to the resistant germs. i QUESTION AND ANSWER ! J. N.. - Does cortisone help curd ■I cancer? ] - Answer: There Is no evidence : that cortisone is of any help in • curing cancer. It is primarily used in treating of asthma, allergic , diseases, and certaih types of ; arthritis.

She crossed the rooftn to him. “I’ve been looking for,. you every day!” She saw his tmnpess, his face, emptied-looking,. ||ke an old man’s. She wanted to put her arms around him but fastead she said briskly, “Go, up, and .I’ll fix some food for'you.* Without a word, perhaps too tired to trust himself| |p speak a word, he went upstairs to his room. Later, with his eupper before him, Rom only looked d|own at his plate. “I think I should Ftell you ..’’ Deborah said quickly,|“You don’t have to tell me a thing, Rom, unless you want to!” ; 1 “I do want t 0..." ; he paused as If it were hot easy to go on. '* “It was a girl, wasn’t it?” asked Deborah helpfully. Ii i “Yes, a girt I knew her before I came to the States. Sre was one of my father’s pupils, got to Paris, managed to get a letter to me—l joined her there and' we .went together back to iPoland. I tried to persuade her to return to \ the States with me she said her work was there-+-tpine here. She would not marry He looked up at hefj his eyes blazing with anger. “irf that had been all! But it wasn’t! jThe money I’ve entrusted to her to Lj use as we planned it—it’s gone, yifp, into the rebuilding of my father’s school, but the school is not used for teaching of the principles of. liberty my father taught! She laughs at them now! It is thait betrayal I \ will never forgive!” ; , No, no use to say to the boy that he’d forget it, some day. So Deborah said, gently, Vjtou’ve got it told now, Rom, and you’re home, so eat your dinner.” “Can’t make it today,’baby. Got to work...” Tony had Just said'?that over the telephone and Nellikept hearing it, even after she put the .receiver back on its hook.', He hadn’t said he was sorry and ij had been three days since she had seen him.

■ .home you think everything is go- 1 mg xirrong!” Yet in spite of that < tears tilled her eyes as she , looked at the dress she had washed and ironed to wear when she met i Tonyl, this afternoon. “I’ll walk up to the Hurrell , house*—l'll go there alone!” It was a faintly comforting decision and it seined the proper place to take her heavy heart. Sit, under the tree pt the back door] and think of that last afternoon when she arid Tony had sat there and she had pelt so close to him. Tho Hurrell house looked different now as she approached it from;(the rear. The old trees hid ltd gkbles, its fine facade. But not the back yard... Suddenly her step short. For' in plain sight!/ back of the house, was Tonyfa car. ' I ' / Shg stood still, { frozen with shock, righting desperately not to believe her eyes. But it was—oh, it was! She knew his car as well as she knew the color of her hair. And Tony wouldn't go there alone! Site knew that from a knowledge of hun she had refused to admit beforfe. She wheeled around, ran, stumbling a little, back along the road‘.toward the trait To hide herself there —to let her heart break there. She sobbed as stye ran, .pueer sobs, that broke with her panting breath.

Sh 6 threw back her head to see John, Wendell standing near her. He wore soft shoes and his step approaching on the trail had made no sound.- For all she knew he might hive been there for several minutes, watching her. She turned the fhry that was consuming her on him. .“Go away!” she cried, , Instead he sat down on the grass a little away from her. “Would it help you, if you told, me something of wpat has upset ydu?” He spoke She sat iip, glared at him. “I’m not H child!

Why are you here anyway? Were you spying on me —to—to tell Susan ? Where’s your old motorcycle?” ' “Broken down and, Tm afraid, beyond repair." He got to his feet. “I’ll go a little way along and wait until you’re ready—then I’ll follow you down.” Nell caught her knees in her arms. "I can go by myself, thank you!” “Well, It happens I don’t like to leave you alone in this isolated spot.” ■ •Men gave a contemptuous snort at that. “You'se wasting your precious time. I’m going to sit here tor hours!” When John had left her Nell grew conscious of a slightly frightening aloneness in the Spot. She sprang up, started quickly down the trail. She would in at Aunt Deb’s house. H Deborah was in the kitchen doing something at the stove. She exclaimed, “Nell! What is it, child ti Come right in—stay to supper. Tve made a blackberry pie!” ( But Nell hesitated just inside the door. She realized that she made a sorry figure, bits of grass on her clothing, staining her blouse, streaks of tears on her face. She avoided Deborah’s eyes. ‘‘l look awful!” I She crossed the room to her. “Not a bit! You can go up to my room and tidy up.” She lowered her voice. “I’m particularly glad you came In, Nell. Rom Barcek’s back —maybe you know. He’s up in his room working on something he’s writing. He sticks to it all day long and way into the night. It isn’t good for him- You see—” nbw she whispered—“he came back all broken up—he’s found out that a girl he was awfully fond of wasn’t what he thought she was He’ll get over it but he needs diversion, someone young around. Now go along and get ready foe supper." , “She knows," thought Nell, ai she climbed the stairs. Yet she had not looked pitying, as Susan would have—she bad not asked one question. Intensely grateful for that, as she passed the closed door behind which she heard the click-clack of a typewriter, Nell thought, “I suppose Tve got to be decent to that Pole—at least Just tonight” (To Be '
