TREATMENT OF BIRTHMARK

Kindly explain the difference be-
tween birthmark and nevus. asks
a reader, and give some Of your
practical advice on the best meth
DDS Of treatment Of these blemishes.
In the readers case the difference
amounted to approximately a dime.
In some cases 1t may be as much
as $500 to $500. Birthmark is a
spot or blemish In the skin, present
at birth or becoming apparent in
the early weeks of life, due to ex-
cessive fermentation (fawn-color,
yellowish, brown or black or to di-
lated and overgrown blood vessels.
Menus Is what we docs call 1t when
we're anxious to persuade you to
undergo treatment. If you fail. to
react favorably to that, we back
off a. bit, get set, and tackle you
again, this time pronouncing 1t
nevus vascularis. If you don't give
up to nevus vascularis, then we can
generally flatten you and proceed
with the treatment when firmly but
gently inform you that you have o
hemangioma. Now just relax
Hemangioma Is Greek for tumor
or swelling composed Of multiplied
and dilated blood vessels. Some
misguided persons with hemangi-
oma make the mistake Of submit
ting to the efforts Of unqualified
operators to remove or obliterate
the blemish. In any case such a
mark may be safely treated only
by a doctor of medicine and sur
gerry.
Hemangioma is usually reddish
or purplish, from pinhead to many
square inches In area, fiat or
slightly elevated above normal skin
level (so-called 'port-wine stainD.

Radium treatment shows its most

two and even three treatments
have been required for the other
two-thirds.
In perhaps q third Of the cases
Of hemangioma radium alone does
not entirely obliterate the blenish.
In such cases the judgment OF the
surgeon should decide on further

favor are solid carbon dioxide for

NewWefare Dept. lost
 Is Under Consid iteration
Asst. Supt. May Be Named By Board Would Replace Clerk Begnal's Name Mentioned in Con- :.
 nectiOn With Plan

Creation of 8 new posiltion-that of assistant welfare superintendent will be discussed by the board of public welfare at meeting Tues day night. The position would re- place that of clerk of the board- investigator, which is now vacant.
 The assistant superintendent would aid the superintendent in the management of department affairs and would also serve as supervisor of case workers. He would have supervision of relief applications, investigations and other phases of the departments worker. "
 Information that the establish ment of such 8 new position is be- ing considered leads to a belief that Henry Begnal, formerly of Water bury and now of Washington, would be given the place. MT. Begnal ap- piled for the post of welfare super intendent following the death of Miss Grace L. White, but 3-2 vote of the welfare board gave the ap- pointment to Martin F. Hayden, former clerk-investigator.
 The salary of the assistant would be fixed at from 2,000 to $2500. The superintendent receives $3,000.
 If the plan for the creation of the new job is rejected by the board, and the clerk-investigator job retained, the salary paid the latter will be considerably less than the $2,75O which MT. Hayden re- ceived. Members of the board point out that MT. Hayden received the salary only after IS years of experi- ence and that the same salary should not be paid a newcomer to the department.
 The board has received numerous applications for the clerkship, but If the new position is created 1t will probably go to one experienced In social service work and with spe- cialized training.

 Roads leading inland from Hango. the gulf coast city leased to Russia for a naval base, were blocked by trucks and sledges loaded with the 2,OOO people who had remained there, and their household goods. Vehicles were piled so high, reports from the area said, that despite all efforts of authorities to control traffic, trucks and sledges kept skidding off roads into ditcheS.
 Authorities had asked refugees to take only the most essential of their possessions, but like others those in the Hango zone had been unable to leave their goods, and took with them not only furniture but pots, pans, pails and even brooms, perch ing on top of the trucks which bore them. Almost all the evacuees were old women and old men.
