ANTISEPTIC PRECAUTIONS ARE
A QUAINT CUSTOM

With all the best intentions I offer
today'S little lesson in the ways OF
health expressly for wiseacre readers.
If there be any wiseacres who know
that little learning may be danger
Gus let EN- read on and maybe they'll
forgive my manners.
First we must distinguish antiseptic
from germicide. A germicide Is any,
thing that kills germs. Heat, boiling,
baking, steaming, singing with flame,
exposing a surface to direct sunlight,
ironing: the action Of various chemi-
Gals; drying, the antidotal effect OF
certain serums.
An antiseptic is anything that re-
tards or prevents the growth and null
tiplication Of germs. Most germicides
are only antiseptics when applied IN
attenuated, diluted or milder form.
The essential drawback about all
germicides is that they destroy body
cells or tissues as readily as they de-
stroy germs. and hence their use is
extremely limited.
The chief drawback about antisep-
tics is that they retard or prevent the
multiplication and growth Of young
tissue cells as readily as they do germs,
and hence they interfere with the
natural healing or repair processes.
While some antiseptics are less In
furious to delicate tissues or young
cells than are others, none has been
found which appreciably prevents
germ activities yet does not delay the
natural healing processes. II your fav-
orite antiseptic purportS to be more
powerful than other antiseptics, 1t
must inevitably retard healing more
than does the other.
In most instances the popular re-
sort to antiseptic remedies Is harmless
enough, I fancy, tho there can be no
question that the healing Of some
minor wounds and burns Is definitely
delayed by the unwise application Of
such remedies. There may be good
science and good sense in the first aid
application Of an antiseptic to a
wound or burn, but there Is neither
in the common practice Of applying
such remedies day after day and week
after week.
theoretically the use Of non-irri-
tating and poisonous antiseptic

protect a person from infection II
applied Immediately after exposure
but 1t is plumb silly to continue the
use of such a remedy after the flu
grip, diphtheria, or other illness ha.
developed. The germs causing the Ill
ness are in the tissues far beyond thu
reach Of any germicide or antiseptic
The only benefits conferred by mouth.
wash, gargle or spray after the illness
develops are the comfort the remedy
gives the patient and the momentary
disinfection Of the nose or throat dis
charges-this being a benefit to those
who come within the patients spray

Modern physicians, surgeons and
nurses do not depend on "antiseptie
precautions" Only old : timers still
think and speak Of "antiseptic tech.
nique." The well trained man o.
woman knows how unreliable antisep'
tic methods are. Today aseptic prin.
ciples and technique govern all surgt'

Exceedingly Strange Interlude

sesSW Va n AAlCoJ
There is q way Of taking too serious
ly the collapse of the Technocracy
bubble. just as there was obviously a
way Of taking its claims too seriously.
Now that the whole thing is pretty
nearly over. people may be tempted
to repeat the old uncomplimentary
things about mass behavior.
Here. for instance, have been
trained and conscientious students of
economies and public affairs busy for
years on the problem Of the Machine
Age. Here have been surveys prepared
Tor the use Of general public by the
highest experts in the country. Three
years ago We had the Report on Re-
cent Economic Changes" Only q few
weeks ago We had the monumental
Report on Social Trends" In these
volumes we find treated with Z rich
competence. though Of course with
scholarly restraint. the issues upon
which Technocracy spoke out with
such comic finality. The work Of the
scholars has received due attention,
but nothing to compare with that
other Juror. Eddie Cantor has not
made radio Jokes about the Social
Trends" The names Of Professors
Mitchell and Ogburn has not been
lightly tossed about by the Mattresses

practice. Instead of trying to kill or
prevent the growth of germs by means
Of antiseptics, the present practice is
to exclude the germs from the envi-
ronment. to keep things sterile, and
that's why things heal faster nova

1t begins to look as though the
Briand-Kellogg peace pact was mis-
homer. To date it has produced some
rather hostile diplomatic notes. Sec
rotary Stimson seems to have con-
ceived the idea that Uncle Sam is to
police the world under its terms. AZ
ter jarring Japan, he now writes or
ders to Peru in its controversy with
Colombia. 1t was Elihu Root who
once said that our diplomacy is al
ways vigorous in tone but weak in
action. Stimson seems to be running
true to that form.
