Operative Treatment of Appenditics


 Joseph B. Bissell, New York, states that operation early enough in every case of acute appendicitis brings about recovery. Operation should be done ra pidly, careful ly and with the latest and best methods of technique. Lavage of the abdomen is no longer employed; it delays the opera ton and increases shock. One peritoneum, which will absorb many of the products of the appendix should be done as simply and rapidly as possible. The author ue- scribes the method and tecnique used by himself with success, including operations on several hundred cases of appendicitis.

Washington, d. Former Senator
Nelson W. Aldrich of Rhode Island
submitted to the national monetary
commission, of which he is chairman,
q revision of his plan for monetary
legislation. The commission may use
it al a basis for its recommendations
to congress.
The basic principles of the revised
plan are substantially the same as
those embodied in Mr.. Aldrich's first
proposal sent to the commission last
January, which he said he expected
would serve as a basis for national
discussion.
The important phases which we're
then unsettled and those which have
since been evolved are treated in the
recommendations now sent to the COM
mission. Most OF the questions are
rehandled with great detail as a re-
suit of discussions and conferences
which have been going on since the
plan was first suggested.
Briefly the plan still provides for
the organization of the National Re-
serve association, with a capital of APP
p~roxinately $500, 0 $1,000, in which the
United States government and the
banks owning shares in the associa.
ton shall be the only depositors.
Messrs. Aldrich and Andrew will
address a meeting of the Indiana
Bankers association at indianapolis,

speak in Chicago, November 10, be-
fore the Western Economic associa-
