Tuberculin, the substance used
everywhere to detect infection; the
other assures freedom from blur
ring of X-ray pictures, and STAN
dardized depth of shadow. Both
these contributions to tuberculosis
work increase the physicians abil-
ity to make early and accurate di-
agnosis.
The new Tuberculin will be
known as "Ma-100", said DIR. En-
erson. "For many years tubercu-
lin has been used in simple and
harmless skin test as means of
determining infection. This did not
mean that disease existed when
persons reacted positively, but that
among those who responded would
be found all those with active tu-
berculosis. Accordingly in the hunt
for cases among larger groups,
such as school children, for exam
ple," explained DR.. Emerson, "fur-
Their inquiry and examination could
be safely limited to the positive
reactors. The others could not be
in any danger.
There was, however, he observ-
ed, one flaw in the process. The
old tuberculin contained ingred-
tents other than the active prin-
ciple, some of which might cause
reactions when there was really no
infection at all. In addition to this
he said, it was impossible to grad
uate the dosage uniformly because
the substance was not pure and
this interferred with that accur-
ate study and comparison of re-
suits upon which medical science
depends.
Standardizing X-ray pictures has
been another great problem which
has impeded the development OF
early diagnosis, according to DR.
Emerson. Variations in mechanism,
in local conditions, in the person
atty Of operators, conspired to in
terfere with scientific accuracy,
he said. For example, pictures made
| in one city with a certain appara-
tus would be found, if the patient
moved to another city, to be Of
little use when compared with
those taken later in watching the
patients progress, because the
second physician would not be con.
versant with the variables Of the
first machine and would be unable
to make allowances for them.
Differences in lighting and me-
chanical action rendered it imper.
alive for the physician reading the
negative to understand fully the
peculiarities known to exist in the
operation of the apparatus. 1t was
next to impossible, DR.. Emerson
pointed out, for physicians to con-
fer with each other by correspond
ence, because the Interpretation OF
shadows would differ in many In
stances.
The new instrument devised to
remedy this grave fault, said DR..
Emerson, establishes a standard
by which the operator will know
in advance of taking the X-ray
that certain established density
| in the picture will be obtained.

Military Men at Head.
The British expedition, which
purports to be for trading" pur-
poses, is headed by a military man,
Lieutenant Colonel j. E. Stewart,
formerly of Tientsin, China, who
speaks Chinese fluently and has
made many surveys of various parts
of Turkestan. The aerial survey
party has already left London and
the survey airplane will be flown
over the air mail route to India.
In the middle of June it is sched-
uled to cross over Kashmir, then
over Karakoram Mountain range OF
13,400 feet altitude.
This territory from the Indian
side is prohibited area for other
than airplanes connected with the
British War Ministry; permission
has been given to the trading" ex-
petition, however, to fly over this
route and use British aerial war
bases on the frontier. The chief
air base of the expedition will be
at Yarkand (JarkanO in far East
ern Turkestan,-north of Kashmir,
southeast of Kashgar, and not far
from the Soviet Union frontier. The
motor transport section of the Brit
ish expedition is scheduled to leave
Tientsin in July, traverse North
China in seven British motor lor-
ries, pass through Kwei Hua, across
Ordos and ALASKAN territory of
southern Mongolia, and finally join
the first group at Yarkand. This

DURP0RTING to be scientific"
and trading" expeditions, but
most obviously constituting purely
military spying and survey VEN
lures, two expeditions, one British
and one French, have already set
forth with the intention of cross
ing through and working from SIN
kiang Province, Chinese Turkestan,
along the whole frontier of Soviet
Russia parallel with the Turkish
Railway.
The advance aerial party of the
British expedition left London in
early March, and the motor-l orry
section is to leave Tientsin in the
coming July, crossing North China
and joining the first group at
Yarkand, Eastern Turkestan.
The French expedition also left
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1931-05-30

equipped with photograph and cine
matograph. The French group left
Paris March 3 and Is travelling by
seven caterpillar cars via Arabia,
Persia, Afthanistan, and into Chi
nese Turkesthan. 1t will traverse
the same route as the British expe-
dition in Sinkiang, travelling along
the Chines-Soviet border directly
parallel with the Turkish Railway.
The Chinese members of the Party,
however, will not be with them
there, but will leave Picking, trav-
cling through Shensi, meet the
French members enroute and re-
turn Wjtsss them to Picking. They
will then accompany them to Sal
gon, Indo-China, and thence re-
turn to Shanghai.
Prepare for War.
These so-called trading and SCI
entific expeditions come in the
footsteps of a campaign that has
been waged for many months in
China, about the danger" of the
Turkish Railway. The December
and January issues of the powerful
monthly, the Far Eastern Review,
which is said to be the organ of
British and Japanese interests, but
edited by an American, carried ex-
tensive articles with complete maps
of the Turkish Railway, alleging
it to be menace to China" The
present British expedition is her
aided in the British press in China
as being undertaken to safeguard
China" against this menace"
The expedition is not at all unlike
the notorious Younghusband expe-
dition from India into Tibet in
1904, by which Tibet became prac-
tically a protectorate of British In
dia, in fact if not in law. This is
part of the preparations for war
against the Soviet Union
