FOR
VALLEY SCOUTS
BEGINS TOMORROW

Opportunity to make an invest
ment in American boyhood will be
given El Centrans when the annual
Boy Scout financial campaign gets
underway tomorrow morning.
Scouting provides a boy with
ideals which he can obtain in no
other way and gives him training
along practical lines. The Boy
Scouts are ready to lend a helping
hand in any emergency and are
constantly being called upon to play
their part in community life.
"A Boy Scout Means a Good Cit

New York, Sept. 24.-In a triangu-
lar lot just behind a lunch wagon,
where Sixth avenue, Eighth, Chris
topher and Greenwich streets form a
confusing traffic hub, the city Of
New York has been selling off at
auction some Of the most ingenious
~ contrived automobiles one might
care to gaze upon.
They are the cars seized from
racketeers, gangsters, bootleggerS,
rum-runners and assorted law break
ers.
Some are given a certain collec-
tors value because of bullet holes in
their sides. Others might serve as
models for auto-makerS who go in
for tricky gadgets. I have visited in
Vulnerable auto shows, but never
have I noted so many trapdoors and
vacant recesses where large bundles

course, have been conceived for the

BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN
Editor, Journal Of the American
Medical Association


More than IS years ago, the Eng
fish physician, Addison, described the
disease which bears his name as a
clinical entity. Shortly thereafter the
French investigator, Brown Sequard.
proved that removal Of suprarenal
glands, situated near the kidneys,
was incompatible with life. Some IS
years ago, British Psychologists found
within these glands a substance which
was associated with marked blood
pressure raising effects. This sub
stance was later isolated and is now
commonly known as epenephrine or
adrenalin. Promptly it was shown,
however, that this was not the in4
dispensable substance in the suprar-
email glands. Large doses failed to
prevent the development Of Addi-
sons disease.
Within recent years evidence ac-
cumulated in various laboratories led
to the development Of what is known
now to be the active substance Of
the cortex Of the suprarenal gland,
a substance therefore called cortin.
The use Of this substance in cases
of Addison's disease prevents the de-
velopment Of the disease and MAIN
tains life. Some Of the earlier stud
les were made by DR.. F. H. Hartman
Of the University Of Buffalo and Drs.
Rogoff and Stewart Of the Western
Reserve University School Of Medi-
cine in Cleveland.
DR.. Hartman obtained a potent
substance from the cortex Of the ad-
renal gland, also near the kidney.
When this substance was injected
into cats whose adrenal glands had
been removed, the cats survived for
30 days or longer as compared with

tract, were able to prolong the lives
Of their animals for considerable pc
riods OF time. They also reported
beneficial results from the use OF
their extract in small series OF
cases Of Addison's disease.
In March, 1880, however, Drs. W..
w. Swingle and j. j. Pfiffner od
Princeton university announced that
they had prepared an extract OF tho
cortex Of the suprarenal gland which
would maintain indefinitely the lived
OF cats whose adrenal glands had
been removed. They also were abld
to revive animals that were on thd
verge Of death from lack Of the su$

apparently normal condition and
keeping them in this condition by(

Finally, in January, 1881, DR.. L. GL

the suprarenal extract in seven cases

Air Transportation Progress

The steady increase in commercial
aviation's safety factor is strikingly
illustrated in the recent report from
Assistant Secretary of Commerce
Clarence M. Young.
During the first six months Of this
year commercial transport planes
flew a little better than 2o,000,0 900
miles. and nine passengers lost their
lives. In the first six months Of last
year the planes flew less than IT,
100000 miles and killed az passen-
gers.
The only thing that stands in the
way Of tremendous boom in the air
transport business is the fact that
the average man still has q faint,
lingering fear Of trusting himself to
an airplane. Let commercial avia-
ton hang up just few more records
like this one and the last traces of
that fear will vanish.
