Beer for Oklahoma?
BN Tnited Presa

ny tNtttu fTfhd
OKLAHOMA CITY. July TO- -
The wet-dry battle ragged through
this prairie state today as jubilant
vets predicted a victory in territory
which, second to Kansas, has been
considered the driest in the United
States.
The battle was over legalization
of 80 per cent beer, but the repeal
issue indirectly was connected.
A special session of the legisla-
ture now is considering machinery
for a repeal vote The Oklahoma
electorate votes Tuesday on whether
legal beer will flow in its domain
for the first time since statehood.
Observers think that if the vets
win on beer, their chances for vic
tory on repeal greatly will be en-
HANGED.
Both vets and drys, after an eX-
tensive campaign, claimed victory.
State officials assumed victory
would be with the vets.
The state Attorney general called
conference Vi equity JuuScS anu
county attorneys Saturday TO work
out a uniform system of enforcing
the possible beer law They agreed
beer would be legalized.
The chairman of the state tax
commission reported he would have
application forms in the hands Of
county agents Wednesday morn
ing, and that licenses would be
granted speedily.
The attoyney-general's conference
ruled beer would become legal the
moment it was evident it had been
approved, and that sale would be
started as soon as a permit was
obtained

1t may, in rare cases, of course,
produce symptoms similar to hay
fever in people representative TO
it. Just as, in rare cases, so may
havoc among representative ones
be wrought by amaranthS, linden,
rose, corn, dandelion, daisy, sun
flower, WormWOOd wheat.
Just as, too, common substances
may produce violent symptoms in
people susceptible to them, sub
stances such as:
Animal danders of the horse,
cat, dog. goat, rabbit, camel,
mouse, monkey, and the excitant
in house dust, glue, tobacco, cof-
fee bean.
But these phenomena are far
afield from the cause of the vast
majority of the fever cases.
Nov, to ameliorate the woe.
~ Comes a victim. SneeZing
from the wild weed pollen adrift
in his home, the subway or the
street. Having told the time when
attacks begin, he gets in the clinic
or doctors Office test injections of
extracts of the pollen that begins
to float in the air at this season.
The extracts are SO potent that
the doctors must determine the
degree of his sensitivity by giving
him first a minimum dose, an in
lection between layers of the skin
and not through it.
When he reacts to a dose of
timothy extracts, say, at the first
minimum injection, he shows he
is violently sensitive to timothy;
if he does not react, say, until the
fourth and maximum injection he
is not so badly off; the reaction is
the development of an irregular
swelling at the place of the injec-
ton.
When the doctor, by a few in
jections, finds what pollen causes
the ailment Git never is caused by
hay and it is not fever) he
knows what preventive extract to
use.
He begins treatments eight or
ten weeks before the season which
usually brings the patient trouble.
He reaches the maximum doses
all injections of pollen extract
under the Skin-before the season
begins, and repeats it weekly
thereafter until 7enty or more
injections have been made.
Each individual case is different
from another. So results vary.
But often after a patient has
taken the treatment four or more
years he can go several seasons
without any more.

Which pollen cause hay fever?
The answer is given by Dr. Tho
men in leaf1et published by the
Brooklyn Botanic Garden:
In the entire plant kingdom
there are about $4,000 different
species of plants which produce
pollen. Hence there are that
many potential cases of hay fever.
ITO be a cause of hay fever,
however, a pollen must satisfy
each of five requirements. For
tunately few species of pollen meet
these requirements, which are:
First, the pollen must contain
an excitant of hay fever. Most
pollen doesn't.
Second, it must be borne by
the wind and not carried, say, by
insects.
Third, it must be produced in
large quantities.
Fourth, it must be so buoyant
that the wind can carry it conSid-
cradle distances.
Fifth, the plant producing it
must be abundantly disturbed"
A S for the person who gets hay
L Afever from the pollen, he must
be one of that host of unlucky
ones who are representative to it;
he must have in his blood what
doctors call a reagin, something
especially sensitive to, and affected
by the pollen.
One of these unfortunates needs
only to encounter four or five pol
len grains to induce severe sneez-
ing, and the onset of what will be
a long continued attack unless
the cause is removed.
-Four will bring it on, and in
New York, for instance, in the
flush of the ragweed seaon there
are twenty-five thousand billion
floating in the streets, through
open windows, in the subway. Here
is the number: $4,000 900 O00,O 900.
They are so small no one can see
them. They are so small that it
takes 380,000,000 pollen grains to
make one gram, and a gram is a
third of a level teaspoonful.
If a minute amount of pollen is
put on a slide under the micro
scope, what to the naked eve is
all but invisible shows up as a
huge pile of teeth edged wheels.
When the rough edges of the
pollen first were seen under the
microscope, it was thought the
answer to the puzzle lay there.
Rough as that, they irritated the
nose and throat and eyes, the
students said. But that had moth
ing to do with it.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1933-07-10

HAY fever, according to the
L Il medicos, is not a local infec-
ton caused by any local irritation
of teeth-edged cartwheels. 1t is an
affection of the whole blood
stream; the throat and nose con-
dition are only symptoms showing
that some part of the pollen is
circulating in the blood of the
whole body
But what pollen?" The hay
fever sufferers ask the question
every day, hoping for an answer
from the specialists.
There is a sure, scientific way
to tell, now.
1T doesn't matter what time of
year patients seek advice. 1t can
be determined any time what
brings on their attacks"
First, case history. They must
know that, as in any other mall
ady. Particularly, they must know
at what time of year the attacks
begin and where the patient lives.
Flowering from mid-August I'M
til the first of october, the rag
weed species causes more hay fever
than all the other reasons put to-
gether.
The giant ragweed plants of
vacant lot, 20 by 20 feet, yield 200
grams of pollen-more than pint
in three DAYS. and in each gram
there are 380,O0O,000 individual
pollen grains.
That is why in ragweed season
here there are always those U.s.
900 billions of pollen grains drift
ing around town.
