DOCTOR CAN REMOVE
 SPLINTER FROM LUNG
Seattle Post -Intelligencer)

NAoNtANNlt OoA -lllltlllS tuCtI)
 The grim necessity of war has made surgeons go about operations which in times of peace would have been regarded as too severe to attempt The fact that the surgeons have sue eeeded in saving lives which must have been lost under the old surgery Is proof that there are certain re- compenses for war. While there has been tremendous Wastage of human life in battle, the knowledge gained in surgery and of hygiene certainly will result in a great saving of life in the future.
 Technique cannot be bestowed alto gether through text books or lectures so that surgical skill. which comes only from long practice must spread slowly. However. the certain know ledge of the achievements of the army surgeons elsewhere in the world to attain results which formerly were considered impossible.
 Already the literature of medicine and of surgery contains news of Won- derful things done in the hospitals of Europe. but the printed page cannot compare in value with the oral de- scriptions made by the very men who have done things. For this reason the visit of Sir Berkeley Moynihan of Leeds, England. to the American clini- cal congress of surgeons at Chicago, aroused unusual interest among the surgeons of the country. Seattle was well represented at that meeting.
 One of the most important develop ments in surgery reported by Sir Berkeley was in the treatment of shrapnel wounds in the lungs. If the methods only were applicable to bull let and shrapnel wounds, they would not be of tremendous interest, for the reason that presently the world will remove the cause of those injuries. However, the new surgery of the lungs opens a wide field and among the possibilities is a surgical opera tion for certain forms of pulmonary tuberculosis.
 Sir Berkeley described an operation on the lungs to remove shell splinters, which surgeons at the congress formerly believed to be impossible When the pletral cavity is opened the exterior pressure of the atmosphere cause the lung to collapse. This does not dismay the surgeons of the new school. While the patient is breathing with the unimpaired lung | the splinter is removed from the in | jured organ, incisions are made fl necessary and infected tissue removed | The lung is cleansed of slivers and shell pieces just as one cleans a | sponge. The amazing thing about il is that the patient suffers no shock and neither the pulse nor the tenn perature Is affected.
 ! The surgery of the thorax, while | perhaps the most important, by nc means exhausts the list of wonders | performed. Every branch of the sci ence of saving human life has prog
 ressed marvelously. and this at . | time when the science of destroying
 life almost has attained perfection.

 One of the moves planned is the creation of a munitions council with headquarters at one of the entente capitals.
 This phase of the question has been under consideration by the war indus tries board for some months.
 Under a tentative plan outlined, the munitions council would be divided into two parts, food and war materials.
