A Lung In Time

I ORD NUFFIELD, the millionaire British motor
- car manufacturer, is reported to have set aside
portion of his huge factory at Cowley for the manu-
facture of 'ron lungs" Profit is no part of his aim.
In fact his announced purpose is to present the
chimes to hospitals without cost He hopes to make it
possible for every hospital in the British Empire to
have at least of these strange but important
ifesaving Devices Only small percentage of hos
pitfalls now have them.
The first use Of the iron lung human being
was made in Boston in 1929. It saved the life of
young college man who was the victim of infantie
paralysis The exact number of lives saved since then
by its use is not known but it must be we'll above
1000 The number of lives lost during those ten years
because there was iron lung available where it was
needed is estimated to be many times 1000.
An iron lung is fairly costly piece of equipment.
Prices vary, but it is said that the average price of
the 5000 which to be made by Lord Nuffield
der production conditions will probably be about
$500. Many hospitals with limited budgets cannot
afford to pay the price.
Not many individuals could afford the price either.
But there's way around that obstruction. In many
cities civic organizations and service clubs have Ell
ther bought iron lung outright and presented it
to the local hospital, or have started community
movement for such purchase.
Now the iron lung at your hospital--f it has one
probably stands idle most of the time Usually it is
just waiting When fire escapes first came into use
an old schoolboard member said to the principal who
demanded one for his building, owe don't need one
We amt had fire in the schoolhouse for 25 years.
One could dispute the need for an iron lung in about
the same way, but no one would-when the need for
