States frost-bttcn $6,000,000 bumper
cane crop. and 1000 more are awaiting
the call if needed, James H. Crutcher,
State WPA Administrator, reported to
Deputy Administrator Aubrey Will
Hams
The emergency need for an unusual
ly large number of harvest hands arose
through the arrival of extremely early
freezing weather. Ordinarily, cane is
harvested from November until Janu-
airy |, but if the crop is frozen it must
be cut quickly or warm rain will cause
it to thaw and ferment.
With one of the finest crops in the
States history badly frozen in the
fields, Administrator Crutcher met
with Governor Richard Leche, repre-
sentatives of the sugar industry and
employment experts. State officials
arranged with the railroads for free
transportation of workers to the har-
vest areas.
A minimum wage of $3.50 per day
in addition to complete free subsist-
ence was agreed upon.

Spain in Revolt" by Harry Gan

viewed by Joseph Johnson at the

the unusual opportunity OF meet

One of the fine books of the year
is Van Wyck Brooks, "FloWering

as it found expression in the lives
and works of Longfellow, Emerson,
Hawthorne, Thoreau, Lowell. and
others of the famous literary figures
of the years 1916 to 1865.

NEW AIDS MAY CUT
MENINGITIS TOLL
Three Potent Medicines
Used in 27 Cases With One
Death, Doctors Hear.
BY THOMAS r. HENRY.

With three potent medicines avail
able, the long dreaded spinal menin-
gifts may soon become much less fatal.
At the Georgetown Medical School
postgraduate clinic yesterday, Dr.
John H Mcleod told of alternative
treatments of this malady of the CEN
trail nervous system at Children's Hos
pital, with only one death in 81 cases.
There are three choices for treat
n1ent, DR.. Mcleod said. The first is
anti-meningitis serum. The second is
meningitis antitoxin, which hitherto
has been considered less potent. The
third is the much advertised sui
phanalamide, which rapidly is coming
into use almost as a specific against
all diseases due to the coccus family
Of bacteria. and which may be effec-
tive against most bacterial infections.
Spinal meningitis is due to attacks on
the meninges, or lining of the spinal
cord and the brain, by the meningo-
coccus, one genus of this family of
basteria which also contains the or
zanisms responsible for pneumonia,
gonorrhea and various other strepto-
coccic maladies.
Drug Helped Baby.
The experimental work at Children's
Hospital, as described by Dr. Mcleod
has been to test the relative efficacy
of serum and antitoxin, which operate
according to different physiological
principles, but which seem to have been
about equal in their effects. The hos
pital staff, following reported success
ful experience elsewhere, for the past

ID months has been experimenting
with exceptionally large doses of the
antitoxin, with almost invariably favor
able results.
The role of sulphanalamide DR. Nc
Leod said Is still in doubt and no
reliable essays of its efficacy can be
had for three or four years. Expert
ments at the National Institute of
Health laboratories here show that it
is about equally effective as the serum,
but no more so. 1t has been used
only once in the Children's Hospital
cases when it resulted, under somewhat
dubious circumstances, in snatching a
l3-month-old baby from the brink of
death. This child. DR.. Mcleod said,
unquestionably had spinal meningitis.
Examination of the spinal fluid had
shown unquestionable meningococci.
Whereas children ordinarily showed
rapid improvement in from one to
four days, including great reduction
in fever, after heavy doses an anti
toxin, this baby's condition remained
the same. Almost in desperation, it
was given the new drug after remain
ing for 81 days with no favorable de-
velopments. Its temperature dropped.
and in few days it was discharged
from the hospital.
May Help in Other Ills.
On the face of it, DR.. Mcleod said, |
such a case would seem to be strong
evidence for sulphanalamide. Just be-
fore the drug was given. examination
OF the spinal fluid showed meningo- |
cocci, and they disappeared. At the |
Public Health Service laboratory, how
ever, it was determined that these were
bugs" of a slightly different species, |
almost indistinguishable |
which ordinarily are never found in the |
spine. There were also colonies of |
other species of the cocci family. It
is verify likely, DR.. Mcleod held. that |
the continuing fever was due to these
which may have come into
the spinal fluid from the skin by
means of spinal punctures. The sui
apparently killed the
secondary invaders rather than the
Uuse of sulphanalamide in relatively |
small doses for various fevers of chill
