After reading over the records of

his conclusions as follows:

cases that diathermy helped In their

Remarkable Improvement Noted.
when we have had many more
cases to report on we hope to be able
to make more definite statement, but
this much we do know, that In every
single case and in almost every single
treatment the temporary effect upon
the patients was remarkable. Cyano-
sis disappeared. The exploratory grunt
when present was markedly lessened
or stopped entirely. Respirations were
less labored and the patient received
from two to four hours Of very marked
relief, in many cases obtaining sound
sleep. Now diatheriny has BEEN or
dered as soon as the diagnosis Is made
in every case of pneumonia at the
Marine hospital.
at Is not too much to asSume that
In many critical cases this marked re.

point in the disease. Under proper
technique, there Is no danger Of III

ATLANTA, Dec. 19.-Southerr
Headquarters of the Underwood
campaign committee have been
opened in Montgomery, Ala, while
the Georgia headquarters have
been opened at the Kimball house
in Atlanta, with R. C. Gordon, OF
Savannah, in charge, according TO
announcement made here today.
AS will be expected, it was point

forces will make an aggressive
fight to obtain the support of the
solid South for the distinguished
Albanian AS Senator Under
wood himself has stated, and which
is emphasized here by democratic
leaders, it has been eighty years
since a Southern man was elected
to the presidency, although Wood
row Wilson, a resident of the
North, was a Southern man.
While the sectional question
ought to be strong appeal, Geor-
gia political leaders assert, yet un-
der the circumstances and consid-
ering the wealth and power of the
South, it is high time that her
claims be given respectful consid-
Grafton.
There is much force in that ap.
peal now, as Southern newspapers
and political leaders state, because
the South is able to present a man
for the presidency in the person of
Senator Oscar Underwood who is
a clear minded statesman whose
services are, it is claimed, sadly
needed in the present national crisis.
