{| Young Manhood: of America for’ t | Preparedness.”
By DAVID DIETZ Science Service Writer CHICAGO, Sept. 24.—War in the air today demands a race of airplane pilots with characteristics like. those of the dwellers of the Andes Mountains of South America, ‘Dr. Carlos Monge, professor of medicine in the University of San Marcos, Lima, Peru, said here today. Dr. Monge spoke in a symposium at the University of Chicago on life at high altitudes and aviation medicine. This is one of a number of symposiums, attended by American scientists, being held here this

Pilots Used to High Altitude Like Andes Dwellers Needed
week in honor of the 50th anniversary of the university.
The people of the high Andes
have developed such different characteristics. that Dr. Monge thinks they should be regarded as a special branch of mankind, Living constantly at altitudes of 10,000 to 16,000 feet they become sick when they descend to the lowlands.
More soldiers from the high alti-
tudes died in the Bolivian-Para-guayan war from inability to stand low altitudes than were killed by bullets, he said.
The chief difference in the en-
vironment of the mountain people
is the shortage of oxygen. This, as Dr. Monge pointed out, is the major problem to be met by military aviators who fly at high altitudes. The outstanding characteristic of the mountain people is the fact that they have larger hearts and slower pulses and that the reaction of their hearts to exertion differs from that of other humans: The heart of the mountain people performs 20 per cent more work than the usual heart, he said. The pulse rate is 60 beats to the minute, whereas 72‘is normal. ; While in ordinary persons exertion causes the heart to’ speed up
and the pulse to increase, the case with the mountain people is just the opopsite.: - After exertion, the pulse becomess lower. Their blood shows a great ability to combine with oxygen, a useful characteristic since there is less oxygen in the air at high altitudes.
