The Human Body Is Wore Complex Than an Automobile

W Vou wouldn’t take your car to a garage and refuse to tell the mechanic what was wrong. The mechanic would have every right to doubt your sanity. Yet people frequently refuse to tell the physician of their ailments. They are anxious to have an ’’unbiased opinion.’* You can save time and expense by being frank with your physician. To do a competent job of diagnosis he needs the history of your symptoms. The human body is far more complex than an automobile. For the best results ’ give him all the facts. All we need is the physician’s prescription. We are Competent to compound it exactly as be spccihes.

“In addtion. 82 Allied vessel* have been located in Japanese waters. Thirty of these were found feasible of salvage, repair and refitting.’’ Gen. Tansey said property which has been reported by th“ Japanese government as looted but which cannot be identified as to ownership is being evaluated a.ul sold as rapidly as circumstances permit. “The proceeds derived from these sales are placed in a special fund which eventually will be divided among the seven nations whose territories were occupied by the Japanese.’’ Tansey said. He identified the nations as China, The Netherlanda, United Kingdom, I'hilippincs, Fiance. Australia B.id India. < POLIO S.IASON HERE + * NEW YORK (UP) The polio season is here, with the number of cases reported so far in 19i9 running ahead of last year, one of the worst in the country's history. The higher figures, however, may be because medical science has better means of diagnosing the disease. And as a result, better results in the prevention of the crippling effects of polio are being obtained. Also, the National Foundation of Infantile Paralysis campaigns each year to educate the public on how to avoid the disease. The Foundation’s health rules arc: 1. Avoid crowds and places where close contact with other persons is likely. 2. Avoid over-fatigue caused by too active play or exercise. 3. Avoid swimming in polluted water. Use only beaches or public pools declared safe by local health authorities. 4. Avoid sudden chilli*g. Remove wet shoes and clothing at once and keep extra blankets and heavier clothing handy for sudden weather changes. 5. Observe the golden rule of personal cleanliness. Keep food tightly covered and safe from flics and other insects. Garbage should be tightly covered and if other dis|x>sal facilities are lacking. it should be burned or bur-

ied.

The Foundation also lists the following symptom* of infantile paraylsis: Headache, nausea or upset stomach, muscle soreness or stiffness, and unexplained fever. If a diagnosis of polio is made the Foundation says, the family should contact the nearest foundation chapter. The organization, it was pointed out, will pay that part of the cost and care and treatment which family or patient cannot meet. As of now. there is no effective drug that can be used in polio cases. During last summer's epidemic in Texas, a new drug, known as darvisul. was tried on some human cases. There were reports that it was effective in some cases but the results definitely were inconclusive. It was pointed out at the time that sometimes there is a spontaneous recovery in polio. The drug is not now being used. However, in recent months there have been other urugs developed that appear to have some anti-virus action. Polio is caused by a vims, and the day may come when an anti-polio drug will be found. Scientists in 100 or more laboratories are now working on the problem. Liechtenstein, the principality between Austria and Switzerland which has an area of 65 squuaie miles, has no military fdrec and only 50 policemen.

Hear Recordings By Tokyo Rose SAN FRANSICO, July 30 t UP) The seductive voice of Tokyo Rose, 33, familiar to thousands of ex-GI’s who fought in the Pacific, was hoard in the courtroom where she is on trial for treason. "Hello there, you fighting orphans somewhere in that pool of water called the Pacific, this is your playmate orphan and taking the roll call.” That was one of the introductions used by defendant Mrs. Iva T’oguri D’Aquino on the “zero hour" program over Radio Tokyo, according to a transcript of four recorded broadcasts introduced into evidence late yesterday. A record player, an elaborate system of amplifiers, and forty earphone headsets were wired into the jury box, the judge’s bench, the attorneys’ tables and the press tables. Late yesterday, Japanese wd‘ness Kenneth Ishii, Tokyo, told the court he had seen one of the treasonable aets named in the indictment, and that he had worked with the defendant or the zero hour for several months before entering the Japanese army. Hr identified her voice as that heard on the records. But defense attorney Wayne Collins drew from the British-educated witness an admission that the scripts used by the defendant had been prepared by two former prisoners of war, Major William Cousens and Captain Tedlnce.
