WAR ADVANCES RUSS SURGERY
Nerves of Corpse Transplanted to Living Man,
Life Serum Produced.
LONDON, Feb. 16 (U. P.).— Pressed by the necessities of war and working within earshot of artillery and aerial bombs, Soviet surgeons and scientists are achieving miracles, official ' Russian sources said today. One scientist has transplanted nerves from a corpse to a living man. Another has developed a serum that combats premature aging of humans. Another appears to be near an effective preventive and cure for tuberculosis. - Deaths Reduced
Russian surgeons, it was officially
from stomach wounds by one-third; from head and chest wounds by two-thirds; from spinal wounds by four-fifth; from anaerobic bacterial infections, from 60 to 10 per cent, Thanks to war-inspired methods, deaths - from gas ' gangrene and tetanus, once the twin scourges of battlefields, were ' said to occur among Russian troops now only in rare instances.
with the successful transfer of a motor nerve from a person killed in an accident to the shattered arm of a Red army commander where the nerve took root. Increase Longevity Since then this original patient has returned to dctive duty and the
{ operation has been successfully re-
peated many times. Vichnevsky has perfected ‘a method of preserving the nerves in a manner similar to the storage of plasma in g blood bank, sit was said. Prof. A. A. Bogomolets of the Soviet Academy of Sciences has per= fected the serum to combat premature aging in humans; thus increasing longevity, and it has been found useful in treating fractures caused by bullets or shell splinters, ulcers and wounds. Bogomolets believes ‘his serum may eventually make it possible for man to achieve a 150-year life span. It is the product of 40 years of research.

Because: tuberculosis ‘often breaks) out among civil populations in wartime, Soviet scientists are giving it intensified attention, proceeding on the theory that resistance of - sues to the infection is dependent on the conditions of the irritability nerve apparatus.
