Heritage of Democracy

The career OF the late Prof. Michael T. Pupin. who
came to America as a boy in search Of democracy
is abundant proof that he found precisely what he
was looking for.
ne ventured across the sea. Democracy lured him
democracy, under which a lad Of the humbiest birth
would have ample opportunity to exercise the best
talents that we're in him. He seems to have come
- the right place a. find II.
For he became. in democratic America one Of the
worlds best-known scientists. His inventions in the
fields Of the X-ray. telephony. and radio we're used
al over the earth. Democracy gave him its finest
fruit-the chance to develop and use to the utmost
the potentialities that Providence had given him.
Fulfillment OF a quest like his Is one OF the most
priceless heritages Of ol country.

-Four reasons for the Inauguration OF the program
are given in the bulletin as follows:
1. Mosquito-control in the Lower Rio Gande VAL
ley should be on a year-round basis due to the fact
that climatic conditions afford mosquito breeding the
year-round.
2. The presence Of an extensive irrigation system
makes available constant facilities for mosquito
breeding.
imperative that immediate and continuous action
be taken toward the control Of mosquitoes in the
Valley.
T. Mosquitoes are never eradicated. only con-
trolled.
Primary concern OF the department is Of course,
the health Of the Valley. and rightly so.
But the economic results Of failure on the part of
the Valley to work hand In hand in controlling the
mosquito are such that We may all do well to pom
der the need OF malaria control in this section.
Certainly. as the Valley looms as a coming tourist
and industrial center, we cannot afford to have
the stigma Of malaria" thrown in our face. and
certainly that possibility may be avoided by prompt
action.
The larger phases Of mosquito control are in the
good hands OF state and federal. county and city
health authorities.
But the help Of every individual property owner
Is needed. A clean up Of all premises is called for.
For the sake Of their own health. tenants should clean
up. for the sake Of the community at large land
lords should see to it that their property is relieved
Of all possible breeding places.
Let's tackle this problem right now. before il be-
comes too serious. and relieve ourselves Of embar-
raising developments.

Lack of Vitamins May
Cause Kidney Stones
Editor, Journal Of the American Medical Association
and Of Hygeia. the Health Magazine
BY DIR. MORRIS FIsHBEIN

Development Of stones in the kidneys is a condi-
ton that has existed since medicine has any record.
For some time IL has been realized that kidney stones
are more common among people living in certain
districts. On various occasions this has been alleged
to be due to the soil of-the country. the amount Of
lime in the water. and the nature of the climate.
Today it is generally believed that these factors are
comparatively unimportant.
Most recent studies seem to show that the soil is
not a significant factor - one reason being that the
coincidence Of stones is steadily diminishing in the
very areas in which formerly 1t was frequent.
The tendency today is toward the view that i'm
provement in living conditions in these areas is large
ly responsible for diminishing the incidence OF stone
formation.
Another interesting fact that has developed from
the study Of this disease is the observation that
the appearance Of stone In the kidney Is exceedingly
rare in districts where dairy farming is extensive.
and that stones are more frequent where cereals form
the staple food OF the population.
In association with this point Of view. recent indi-
cations place responsibility for the formations Of stone
in the kidney largely on absence Of certain necessary
vitamins from the diet.
In certain parts Of Asia kidney stone is observed
only as a disease Of childhood. 1t Is known that
women in India live on a diet deficient in vitamins,
so that their children do not secure an adequate sup
ply Of vitamins in the milk.
IT has also been observed that stone in the kidney
appears quite often after a person has been kept
at rest in bed for a long time, as is the case after
fractures OF large bones or In severe diseases involv-
ing the bones or tissues. This Is believed TO be due
to the fact that. when the patient is kept on his back.
the kidneys are not well drained and a deposit Of
crystalline material from the urine forms the nucleus
OF the stone.
There seems to be no doubt also that various alb
noTmalities Of the kidneys may be associated with
stone formation to the flow OF fluid to the kidney
leads to damming OF the material and to deposit OF
crystalline material.
A great deal Of experimental evidence in animals
indicates that a deficiency Of vitamin A brings about
breaking down OF the surface lining or membranes
OF many organs and tissues. including those OF the
urinary passages.
Thus our present knowledge Of kidney stone leads
to the belief that q deficiency Of vitamins. particu-
larry OF vitamin A. is an important factor and that
infections and abnormalities in the urinary tract
may be associated factors.

I overheard a young mar say to-
day:
We must get a strong man to set

That is strong talk. The young

a solution by force.
