N. D SLEARN OF
Emergency WORK

Emergency hospital work as car.
ried on in Honolulu IS the subject OF
paper being read at the meeting OF
the Medical Society of Hawaii, at the
University club, this afternoon. Dr.
R. G. Aver, emergency hospital sur
geon, will present the paper, which
deals with the different phases OF
emergency work handled by the local
police authorities. The paper points
out that despite the smallness of the
institution, nearly 1000 cases year
are handled. :..r
The emergency hospital, which is
over three years old, started in a cell
in police headquarters. From there II
blossomed out to three-room tnstitu-
ton, with three cots, operating room,
and consulting office. There are three
attendants who aid in the emergency
work. .-.....~s t..--. T.
DR.. Aver calls attention to the fact
that there is no room for mental cases
which should be kept under observa-
tion. These cases of supposedly In
sane persons are kept at the city
prison for examination. ..:.
DR.. Aver has asked the board OF
supervisors for more room, in order
that a greater variety Of cases may
be handled, so that more mental cases
may be kept at headquarters under
observation, and that more ernerg-
ency cases may be looked after dur
ing rush time.
Other papers to be presented at
this afternoons meeting are: "The
Rise of DR.. Samuel Wilbur" by DR.. E.
S. Goodhue; Military Surgery of the
Eye" prepared by DR.. James F. Nor:
gan, and Some Dietetic Factors oil

James r. Judd delivered an address
on THE American Ambulance Work
Carried on in France" and the diff
cult duties of sergeons and nurses at
tached to the humanitarian organiza.
ton. A number of stereopticon views
of wounded men were shown.
Had precautions been taken to exam
inc all civilian laborers at Cashier to
see whether or not they we're typhoid
carriers there would probably have
been no outbreak of typhoid at the
army post, declared DR.. 1. J. Sheperd
in his paper on the recent epidemic,
read Saturday before the convention.

SEEN I'm BERLIN

from Berlin today indicated that, in
some quarters there is less optimism
over the outcome OF Germany's nten-

ConSderabl agitation Is now being

sentiment felt in the I'lited States
over Gcrmanys declaration that she
will sink on sight ships in the barre /
