The Indiana State Medical As- |
sociation's statewide campaign to
eliminate syphilis in Indiana took |
definite form today with announcement of details of the program.
The campaign plan, which has | As one of its objectives, “No child |
born with syphilis in Indiana by
1940,” was announced in the August |
issue of the association's publication, “The Journal” The Medical Society's program was revealed after draft-
official |
detailed |
ing of temporary plans of its cam- |
paign here in co-operation with the |
City Health Board. Co-Operation Proposed That program included possibility of voluntary tests for the disease, to be made by the State Health Board and establishment of an isolation ward for afflicted at Oity Hospital. The association would enlist in its drive the co-operative efforts of the State Health Board, hospitals heads, nursing association heads, social service works, Community Fund officials, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, young Hebrew Association, Y. M. C. A, Y. W. C. A, Catholic lay or-
ganizations and others. The program was drafted by the Committee on Syphilis Control, Dr. | F. R. Nicholas Carter is chairman. | Members are Drs. Minor W. Miller | and Ernest O. Nay
The Council of the Indianapolis |
Medical Society already has ap- | proved a plan for control of the disease in Indianapolis, as formulated by Dr. Prank M. Gastineau | and Dr. Norman M. Beatty. To bolster enforcement, the committee notes that the State Health Department may exercise police power to effect treatment of the diseased in the private practitioner's office. The committee also pointed out that syphilis is quarantinable and urges that afflicted persons who refuse treatment be quarantined. The committee's plan calls for a definite system of case reporting and compulsory treatment.
Education Recommended | Working in conjunction with the | State Division of Public Health, the | committee suggests a campaign of | education and recommends that the | State Division employ a physician, | working full time, in charge of | venereal disease educational work. The committee urges that inves- | tigators be appointed for certain | health provinces or groups of health | provinces, to aid the physician in | seeing that his patient continues | treatment until his case is cured or | permanently arrested. Other pertinent points in the pro- | gram include: { Printing of cards by the State] Health Board for the use of physicians to report delinquencies in| treatment. | That upon receipt of a card from | 8 physician, stating that a patient is delinquent, it shall be the duty i the health officer or deputy to visit the patient and insist upon treatment or quarantine. |
Hospitalization Asked That hospital beds be provided for | patients needing hospitalization. | That the practice of supplying | drugs for indigent patients be con- | tinued by the State Health Board | through the attending physician, | That the Wasserman test card be changed at the State Health Board laboratory, omitting the indigent clause, leaving it up to the doctor as to whether or not his patient can afford to pay. Recommendation Board make a survey of darkfield | equipment for use in the state and | that lectures be given by op
that the State
tative members of the Medical Association to students of Purdue and | other pharmaceutical schools, Recommendation that the asso- | ciation contact the Retail Drug- | aists Association, urging raembers | not to treat venereal disease, but to refer all such cases to physicians. Regular Examinations Urged The Council of the Indianapolis | Medical Society in its approved | program to fight the disease here suggested regular examinations for | all known prostitutes. The Council urged the Wasser- | man test for food handlers and all | pregnant women, especially those | attending clinics Supported by public money, The Council also urged that pros- | ecutors and judges be asked to help | in correlating a system for treating the wayward individuals infected | with the disease. | So that public health officials | would have accurate knowledge | concerning prevaience of tne ais- | ease, the Council suggested a card | svstem by which physicians could | inform the Health treatment of a case is begun. Identification would be by num- | ber, with no name or address given. | However, the doctor would make a | report by personal letter if the pa- | tient refuses treutment or to co- | operate in safeguarding the public | from his aftliction.

Bavaria and Served In German Army.
By MORRIS GILBERT NEA Service Staff Correspondent NY YORK, Aug. 2.—"A hundred per cent American.” Such is the basic principle of the Amerikadeutscher Volkesbund as proclaimed by its Fuehrer, Fritz Kuhn. : Fritz Kuhn, a ringer in physique for Gen. Hermann Goering, explained himself and his movement in his national headquarters here. The walls of his office aren't quite so hunfred per cent. An American flag takes up about 30 per cent of one wall. A Nazi flag takes an equal 30 per cent. Between them hangs a large chromo (20 per cent) showing Adolf Hitler taking over power in the Reichstag from the late President von Hindenburg. Below this hangs a framed portrait (10 per cent) of Adolf Hitler himself. “Our principles,” the American Fuehrer -- “Bundesfuehrer,” he says, is his full title—"are to fight communism or any other Marxist movement. We want to create better understanding between Germany and the United States. We don’t believe any country or the leader of any country should be attacked and blackguarded.”
UHN himself is a German Protestant. He was born in Bavaria, lived in Munich, and served in the World War as Obererlieutenant of the Bavarian King's Guards, he explains. He saw service on several fronts, was wounded twice, and won the Iron Cross at Verdun. Coming to the United States in 1924, he spent eight years in the Ford plant in Detroit as a chemical engineer, was naturalized, and became Fuerrer of the Amerikadeutscher Volkesbund on Jan. 1, 1936. Describing the uniform he now wears, he called it “typically American.” It is composed of grey shirt, black trousers, grey coat, and overseas cap. Secretaries entering the room at New York headquarters during the interview came up with the Nazi salute and a “Heil!” The Fuehrer responded, “Heil!” “I notice vou give the Nazi sathe correspondent observed. “We give it when the German national anthem is played,” tae Fuehrer explained. “When the American national anthem is played, we salute American-style, fingers at the tip of the cap.”
» » »
“YSN'T it a little unusual for a 100 per cent American organization to give a foreign salute?” the correspondent asked. “Oh, no,” the Fuehrer answered. “In Germany when the American anthem is sung, they give the American salute.” “Who does?” “The Germans.” “Germans in uniform?” “Yes,” said the Puehrer unblushingly, “I saw them at the Olympic games.” On a bookcase opposite the American and Nazi flags stood a row of desk-size Nazi banners, gonfalons, and pennants. On a cabinet near the window stood the emblem of the Amerikadeutscher Volkesbund. It is a Nazi swastika elevated above a semicircular base on which appear the initials A. V. “It's a purely American symbol.” Herr Kuhn explained. “It is the rising sun with the swastika above it.” on on »
“ HE swastika,” he continued explaining, “is not a symbol of National Socialist ideas. & symbol of social ideas combined with nationalistic ideas.” “Pardon?” said the correspondent. “It's pretty hard to explain” said the Fuehrer. “What it really means is: America for the Americans—the real Americans. Just as it means: Germany for theGermans. A Communist, for instance, can never be a real American.” About those camps, the Fuehrer explained that his organization has divided America up into three 100 per cent American districts. Each “Gau” or dis*“ict has & Gauleiter, or district leader, Just as each Nazi Gau. which has supplanted old German political divisions, has a Gauleiter, The three districts have more than 20000 members enrolled in 82 city schools or Ortsgruppe, Kuhn said, and the numbers are growing fast. ‘“‘We'ra absolutely 100 per cent American,” he repeated. “We have no connection with Hitler or the Nazis, and we get no pay from Hitler.” » » ®

Ra Beh TA oe Nordland at Andover, N. J. As many as 10,000 visitors have been to them on week-ends, Kuhn declared. He denied the campers were uniformed or the children drilied, Of course, “we have the Ordnungdienst, the Service. They wear uniforms. They have to keep order. Why, last Sunday, for instance, at Camp
Nordland there were some girls dancing in bathing suits. That wouldn't do, so they took the girls right off the floor. “But it's foolish to say we're teaching children the goostestep. We have responsibility for those boys, of course, and we must keep order.” The word “order” apparently meant regimentation. The

WOMEN WHO HOLD THEIR MEN | NEVER LET THEM KNOW
O matter how much your back aches and your nerves scream, your husband, because he is only a man, can never under« stand why you are so hard to live with one weak in every month, Too often the honeymoon exe press is wrecked by the nagging tongue of a three-quarter wife, The wise woman never lets her husband know by outward sign that she is a vietim of periodic pain, For three generationsone woman has told another how to go “‘smiling through" with Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, It helps Nature tone up the system, thus lessening the discomforts from the functional disorders which women must endure in the three ordeals of life: 1, Turning from girthood to womanhood. 2.
