Antibiotics Treat Social 111
By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. THE great incidence of venereal disease in this Country has long been the subject of a crusade by moral and social forces. Early detection and treatment with antibiotics have been the contributions of medical research to this crusade, factors which are greatly decreasing the amount of syphilis today and will lessen < even further its future incidence. I This is mainly due to the fact that' cases are now quickly brought to treatment and given injections of antibiotics to make them non,infective. | 'I J • > Less Than Two Days Also, the newer antibiotic drugs, •specially penicillin, can make a person non-infective in a little less than two days. The occurrence of syphilis has also been further reduced by using large doses of penicillin in treating cases of gonorrhea, another type of venereal disease* Then, in patients with syphilis and gon- ' orrhea, th* syphilis is cured at the same time. Most expectant mothers have blood tests early in their pregnancy. If syphilis is discovered in the expectant woman, she can be given the large dosages of penicillin that will keep her infant from developing this disease. J Tb,us, hereditary syphilis hM
The state’s surplus continues to grow and Mr. Peters predicts that it will total 390 million by 1955. He believes a balance ot >SO million will tide the government over during lean years and that additional collections should be used to lower local taxes. From - the current surplus, Gov. Craig plans to build aj new 315 million state office building, which is needed by Indiana’s ever-expand-ing bureacucracy and can be finfenced on a cash basis. From there on, the taxpayer should get relief. o o Andrei Vishinsky, chief Soviet delegate to the United Nations, proposed an immediate prohibition on atomic- and hydrogen weapons. At first glance his proposal might seem to be a step toward peace. Closer observation, however, reveals that this is the same old line he has put out in the past, a suggestion that atomic weapons be prohibited but carrying no provision for enforcing the ban. Nor A. has he ever made any mention of . other forms of disarmament, particularly in fields where the Reds may enjoy a measure of superiority. It might be suggested to Vishinsky that the surest way to avoid the use of dreadful weapons is\to prevent wars. His suggestions do * o o S/owdown Results:— Eleven states from Maine to Maryland recent# ; reported on the results of a traffic slowdown program they conducted through three months of this summer. The report showed that deaths from automobile accidents in those states decreased three per cent from the number iu the same three month period of 1952. States, co-operating in the slowdown program were: Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Deleware. Travel over the highways in the eleven states was at an all-time summer high. Despite this, 41 fewer people were killed in automobile accidents. Convictions ontraffic violation counts were increased in all of the states and safety authorities credit this increase with the increase in safety. Many accidents are caused by • factors' other than speeding. But speeding does figure in a veryhigh percentage of accidents. The experiment is proof that a strictly enforced program against speeding can produce good results. . \ .
been almost entirely eliminated. Many of the cases of advanced syphilis that were acquired before the days of penicillin are also being helped by its use. The antibiotics have proved helpful in cases of syphilis of the nervous system, but it has been necessary to create a high temperature by giving the patient a mUd malaria Infection, injecting killed typhoid germs, or by using a fever cabinet sin conjunction with the antibiotic drugs. \ i In the late cases of syphilis of the heart and blood vessels, penicillin and the other antibiotics 4 are usually of little help, however* In years to come, these late complications of syphilis of the nervous system and of the heart and blood vessels will be* virtually extinct with the modern methode of detection and treatment of early syphilis. QUESTION AND ANSWER Mrs. H. D.: My husband has been told that he has trichomonas. I thought this infection occurred only in women. Ajaswer: Trichomonas infection* do occur in the male urethra as well as the female reproductive organs. It is usually transmitted by the female. This infection is very difficult to cure in males, but intensive treatment with auremnyete is of bain. •

CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT IN THE street, Manning kept running. Windows were banging open here and there and sleepy voices caning. - Silvery light now outlined the eastern hills, and ahead reared the statue ot Flint Manning, faintly silhouetted. Cole .Manning looked toward the statue and thought he saw movement at its base. •‘Ruxton?” he called. A soft stirring yonder—something not really seen nor heard. But now he knew that Ruxton was behind the base of the statue. “Ruxton,” he called again. "Toss away your gun and come out of there. I’ve got nothing against you that makes me want your scalp.” Ruxton said, "So you're still loaded down with Ideals, you fool,” and his gun made a redness in the dawn, the bullet thunking solidly Into the aide of the building by which Maiming stood. Manning fired instinctively, having only Ruxton's gun flash for target. Ruxton had exposed himself to get that one shot. He came forward now, taking three short, mincing steps before he crumpled. Manning walked toward him and looked down at the sprawled figure and knew Ruxton to be dead. He cased his gun and walked back as far as the planking and seated himself on the boardwalk's edge. Aftermath overcame him then; he had never killed a man before tonight, but there’d been no time to think about that when Torgin had gone down. He’d tossed lead at Slash 7 and nicked at least one man at the coulee siege, but this was different. Now he felt very 111 and was certain’ his stomach was going to rebel. He fought against nausea. He looked up at the statue ot Flint Manning and wondered if the great one had known such a moment as this and realized with certainty that Flint Manning had. In what strange town, on what far trail? He heard his name called cautiously from a distance and recognized Laura’s voice. He got up and walked toward her. She came to him running; she came into his arms. She asked, “Are you hurt, Cole? Are you hurt?” ' \ “No,” he said and shrugged. There’ll be no scar that shows.”

“Let's get off the street before the whole town is here asking questions,” she said. She took his arm. “Come along to the hospital, Cola* He let her lead him. They came into the brick building and down the corridor to the kitchen, and here they found Ma Hibbard hobbling about in nightgown and wrapper. \ ' The old woman took a look at them and said, ’Tve got coffee on.” She pulled a chair out from the table and nodded at Manning. “Sit down, son. You’re Flint’s boy, ot course. Land sakes, nobody ever thinks to introduce me to anyone.” Manning seated himself. He needed sleep; he was in a woolly world where nothing much seemed to matter. He stared at the coffee that was set before him; he stirred it for a long time and, then slowly sipped it. It was hot and strong and good to taste. It made him feel better., He saw dawn at the window and beard the myriad noises of the hospital. Somebody tiptoed ponderously tn and spoke to I Laura and tiptoed out. Burke Griffin. Ma Hibbard filled Manning’s coffee cup again. Laura said, “There’s an empty bed down the hall. Cole. You’d better sleep awhile.” “Sure,” he said and let her lead him to the room. \ It was past noon when he arose. He got into his boots and rubbed his hand across his jaw. Felt rougher than the bristles of a currying brush. He came along the corridor and found Brownlee’s office door open and walked Inside. Brownlee was here, working on a patient who was seated on a chair, that hard-jawed Slash 7 hand who’d stopped Brownlee’s first bullet when Brownlee had fired through the dugout door. “Good afternoon, Cole,” Brownlee said, his fingers busy. “This man tells me that the rest of Slash 7’s crew has ridden out, but be was afraid to take the trail without getting patched up first. Figured that jail wouldn’t be as bad as blood poisoning. But Burke doesn't want him. Burke says good riddance to the whole bunch.” “It’s Griffin’s choice,” Manning conceded. y Brownlee finished with his work rihd stood back to admire it. “There,” he said to bls patient. “You’ll have to favor that shoul-
business Decline Noted In Indiana Decline Reported By I. U. Economists BLOOMINGTON, Ind., UP diana University economists said today Hoosier business declined somewhat last month. They noted certain “soft spots” they said “bear watching?’ The Indiana Business Review, monthly publication of the business research bureau, said despite the monthly decline, August business was healthier than the same , month in 1952. The bureau noted August declines in bank debits, building contracts, electric power production, farm prices, life Insurance sales and newspaper advertising, “which will bear watching in the next few months.” Department store sales were slightly under the July figure, but several points below August, 1952. Fann prices declined to a figure nearly 10 points under last year, but coal production increased over last August. “Most components of the general business index except the one for coal production were higher ' than they were in July and slightly above the I. U. bureau’s estimate of normal for August,” the review said. " The report sold the rate of increase of personal incomes has slowed somewhat in the last few months.
der for a while, but you'll be all right.” The man started worming into the remnants of a discarded shirt, but Brownlee had to help him. The man said, “Haven't got a cent oa me. Doc. Torgin owed us some pay, but I guess there’ll bo no collecting it now.” “Forget It,” Brownlee said, and when the patient had gone his silent way, Brownlee smiled at Manning. *T put the bullet in him; I suppose it was up to me to dig it out. It’s the second charity job I’ve done for Slash 7 in two days. Found a teilow out there yesterday morning with a bump on his head.” “Gal,” Manning said. He’d almost forgotten about GaL He looked through the window. “Here come Laura and Griffin.” \ The two entered the hospital and came into the office. Laura asked, “How do you feel, Cole?” “Fine,” he said, though it wasn't so. Burke Griffin lowered himself to the chair the Slash 7 hand had vacated; Griffin sighed a wheezy sigh. “Sure been stirring my stumps,” he said. “But we’ve got Torgin and Ruxton both boxed up and ready for burying.” He shook hia head at Manning. “Shooting blind, seems you got both of ’em.” Dr. Brownlee observed. “Your first case la closed. Cole. All you've got to do is make your report. I’m asking you to leave Flint’s name out ot it. After all, I’m the one who robbed the stage. That’s all the law needs to know.” ’The jewelry can go back to Wells Fargo any time,” Griffin said. “And I’ve released Purdy. In my book, he was just the innocent bygtander.” “Simple as that, eh?” Manning said. “Don’t you folks see? 1 have to make the same choice my dad made twenty-four years ago when he found Doc, here, with the toot. And 1 have to remember that Doo saved bur lives last night at the coulee dugout. But there’s a lot more to it than that. Tve got to think about the very thing Flint Maiming thought of—the hundreds of lives that a hospital saves.” “You aren’t arresting Gramp?” Laura asked ■ -V *TL don’t know,” Manning said. “I don’t know . ..” £To Bs
Taft-Hartley Law Change Is Unlikely Little Likelihood Os Amending Act WASHINGTON UP—Likelihood of amending the Taft-Hartley act in the 1954 congress was slimming toward zero today and the labor front political war was on. The net result of bringing Martin P. Durkin, president of the AFL plumbers union, into the Eisenhqwer cabinet has been only to stiffen both sides of the controversy. . ; v Conditions which prevented amendment of the act in the Democratic 81st and 82nd congresses apparently will be equally effective or more so in the current Republican 83rd. Although the late Sen. Robert A. Taft acknowledged desirability of numerous amendments to the Taft-Hartley act, there never was agreement even on where to begin. None has stepped up so far to claim responsibility for the Durkin nomination for secretary of labor. But its purpose generally was believed to have been to entice a large body of organized labor, complete with, leaders, toward the Republican administration. It led almost immediately to angry dispute with CIO president Walter Reuther over subordinate labor department^posts. The AFL was more friendly but never enthusiastic about President Eisenhower, his cabinet and his policies. Last week’s AFL convention in St. Louis put the labor front and the administration’s political problems among union members in sharp focus. The delegates mocked the explanatory passages of the speech of Vice President Richard Nixon who appeared as Mr. Eisenhower’s personal representative. Convention officials and the White House came as near to name calling as Is usual in such controversies without using the angry words themselves. The issue was whether someone was lying about the circumstances of Durkin’s resignation, and, if so, on -which side. The convention repudiated even the amendments fourkin had accepted as a cabinet member and the AFL leadership handled the President rather roughly once the dispute on who was telling the truth got going. Nixon’s message from Mr. Eisenhower was tagged “the Ike-Nixon alibi.”

4,000 Planes Equipped For Atom Weapons Few Adaptable For Handling Powerful Hydrogen Bombs WASHINGTON, UP-4The United States now has approximately 4,000 warplanes equipped to carry atomic weapons, according to estimates Jn well-informed military circles. Only a relative handful of these, it is believed, can be adapted for delivery of the much larger and infinitely more destructive hydrogen bomb. It ViH be many months, morebefore there are significant numbers of high-speech B-52 jet bombers, which are intended specifically for H-bombing and are in early production phases. The air force is expected to announce plans this week to increase B-52 orders and set up a second production line. The question of this nation’s ability to deliver nuclear weapons has come to the fore again with wide-spread reports that such weapons are becoming increasingly plentiful, varied in size and purpose, and cheaper to fabricate. Sen. Richard B. Russell (D-Ga.) recently commented that weapons development appeared to be outpacing development of modern planes to deliver them. He and Sen. Styles Bridges ' (R-N. H.) urged more emphasis on procurement of modern types. The 4,900 estimate includes planes of every type announced as being fitted for A-weapons delivery. Os these, the air force has at a maximum 3,500 and the navy has in the neighborhood of 500, possiblp more, according to available estimates. Not all the planes are in combat units. The air force, for example, has received more than 600 BA* jet bombers. But so far as has been announced only two combat wings, totalling 90 B-47’s have been organized and completed training. Strategic air command crews are being trained to take over the speedy bombers as fast as possible. M - The other air force planes that can.carry atomic weapons are the. intercontinental B-36 Superbomb ers, B-29 and B-50 Superforts, B--45 Tornado light jet bombers, and the F-846 Thunderjet fighters. The iavy planes that can carry atomic weapons, according to public announcements, are the AJ Savage and AD-4 Skyraider attack bombers and the F2H-2B Banshee fighter flown' by the marines.
