PULSE OF THE PUBLIC

defeated by the protests of an
indignant public who know their
real friends and believe in fair
play. Now he and two of his
satellites are using a more in
direct method to accomplish
their despicable ends. One can't
help wondering why such men
are returned to office! I sup
pose he will get away with it.
We had an expose of the pass
the Pierce county hospital had
come to through failure of the
state to appropriate funds for
equipment and personnel. The
Martin machine which controls
our legislature blocked every eff
fort to correct these evils, on
the grounds of economy. Other
states have found such economy
in the field of public health cost
ly. One notices that the state
can appropriate funds for less
essential purposes. 1t costs more
to bury the victims of Martin
economy than 1t would to take
care OF them decently and so
keep them from menacing the
health of others. even If We ig-
more the humane angle which
our governor may and even the
politician 1 was speaking of, but
the people of this state cannot
and look themselves in the eye

conscience knowing that because
their lee ted representatives
want to play politics in the
Tammany manner, sick women,
children and old people and flu
ture citizens of this state of ours
are doomed to die in squalor and
misery, economy cannot be an
alibi for this. What are we 60
ing to do about it?

HOROSCOPE
SATURDAY, JANURY 6

Menacing aspects are active
today. Conflict is strongly en-
couraged by the stars which
seem to presage temporary good
luck for the Nazi forces In the
European war. Certain campaign
plans of the British may be UNI
fortunate.
Heart and Home: This is an
suspicious date for informal
Inequalities. 1t is also lucky
for starting on journeys and
seems to promise profit for win
ter resorts. Severe weather
and destructive storms late this
month win send many persons
south and west in search of mild
weather. High winds and heavy
SHOWS will affect traffic in the
middle west. Earthquakes are
forecast in widely separated
places.
Business Affairs: Government
credit will be discussed and
large private investments will
be deferred. but general trade
will be good through this month.
Manufacturers and merchants
will profit by the cash-and-carry
plan. Persons who gain wealth
through human sacrifice In wars
will prosper for only brief sea-
son.
National Issues; Opposition to
political candidates who make
public service a career will be
strong in coming months. The
competition for the highest
place will be limited by unex-
pected events. Surprising de-
velopments will shift Royalties
and emphasize the need for
special qualities in our states
men.
International Affairs: Espion-
age In the United States will
reach such efficiency that con-
gress viii seek an increase IN
secret service operatives. A
diplomatic plan for peace win be
blocked through its premature
discovery by foreign spies.
Public mourning is forecast Tor
London as a famous career ends.
Sudden death is presaged for re-
evolutionary leaders in more

Your HEALTH
BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEN

Cases of extensive body burns
are likely to result in death.
Seldom is there recovery for
anyone who has as much as one
half of his body surface burned.
Children die frequently when
even less than one-half of the
skin is burned.
Death is caused principally by
other conditions which result,
such as pneumonia, inflamma-
ton of the kidneys, ulcers of the
intestines, and shock.
The shock reaction is mani
tested by a sudden weakening
of the pulse and a fall of the
blood pressure. Gradually the
circulation stops. The legs and
arms become cold and blue, and
the blood becomes thick and
dark.
1t was once thought that these
changes were the result of poison
absorbed from the burned skin
by the body and that this poison
ing could be prevented by the
use of tannic acid treatment. 1t
was thought that this treatment
held the poisonous substances in
the area of the burn and pre-
vented their absorption into the
circulation.
Now surgeons in the Medical
School of Indiana university
have come to the conclusion that
death is the result of a reaction
of the small blood vessels to the
injury by heat. The small blood
vessels dilate, the circulation
stagnates. and the fluid material
of the blood escapes from the
small blood vessels into the It's
sue spaces. Thus, the patient
dies of shock due to loss of blood
fluid which is so rapid that moth
ing can be done to replace it.
On the basis of this concep-
ton, they have introduced the
idea of replacing the blood as
rapidly as possible after a burn
so that this condition of shock
cannot develop.
They described the case Of
15-year-old girl, who was burned
when her evening dress caught
fire at ball. The pain Of the
serious burns was stopped by
placing her into a tub of / per
cent salt water at body tenn
persture.
She remained in this bath for
Ia hours. Then she was placed
In a bed with sterile sheets and
dressings moistened with salt
solution In order to overcome
the loss of fluid, she was given
at once a pint Of salt solution Of
the same concentration as the
blood directly into the veins.
She was also given transfusions
Of blood at the end OF eight hours
and all OF her fluid was given in
the form of a salt solution mix
ed with glucose solution.
Other blood transfusions were
given later. II was finally de-
cided. however, 10 discard the
giving OF whole blood and to give
only the fluid material Of the
blood with the substances which
it contains aside from the red
blood cells. Continuous treat
ment and application OF oxygen
at times resulted in gradual i'm
proyement and eventual recov-
cry in this case,

deal with the allies would gam
Italy territory, prestige ana an
alliance with the winning SIDE
But a whipped Germany would
leave Italy the sole exponent OF
pure totalitarianism in southern
Europe. Here is where the
French negotiations come IN.
Banteringly the French are ad-
vising Mussolini that the real
Mediterranean accord will come
when II Duee surrenders some
powers back to a parliament,
some votes to the people. Which
some serious Fascists think may
be the Italian inheritance from
this war.
The state departments axis
men report that the friendship
between Hitler and Mussolini
has definitely chilled though
they are keeping up appear
ances. The answer seems to be
that II Duce figures he has got
got all the nuisance value he
can out of the rather loose ALI
ance with Berlin, and is now
ready to quit.
Mussolinrs new policy is based
on his insiStence that Italy's
dominant influence in the Bal
kans be recognized by the
powers. He has Won scant glory
or material benefit from his
Ethiopian and Spanish adven-
lures, and now gazes across the
Adriatic for new field of con-
quest and cash. He realizes
that so long as the Moscow
Berlin pact exists, he will al
ways face the threat of Soviet
competition in the Balkans. He
is willing to let Moscow take
back Bessarabia, according to
Washington's advices, but he
will oppose a further push by
Stain.
II Duce's fresh ambitions may
result in major diplomatic
and military move. If he can
persuade Great Britain and
France to give him a fairly free
hand in the Balkans in return
for a policy Of benevolent neu-
trality or entry into the war on
their side, he may cast his lot
with the allies as he did the last
time, thus completing the en-
circlement of Germany from the
west and south. Aside from
F.D.R's sincere desire to hold
open the door to peace, these
considerations lie behind the de-
cision to send Myron C. Taylor
as unofficial ambassador to the
Vatican.

BY way Of specific detail look
for the following: An attack on
some 10 eastern seaboard COM
panies engaged In government
supply, whose capitalization in
1880 was under $4,000 but who
now audit in millions. An at
tack on two eastern companies
controlled by two Democratic
congressman engaged in the
business of writing performance
bonds for firms obtaining gov
eminent contracts. A wholesale
review Of government bid con-
tracts where unsuccessful bid
ders have deposed that the sue
cessful bids were not in the en-
velope whose postmarks got in
under the wire.
U. S. military problems are
little ones, but are nonetheless
occupying researchers who think
it may not always be thus. The
revolutionary advance brought
on by the development of the
new Garand rifle has put head
aches under brass hats. The
automatic weapon burns up am
munition. Under battle condi-
tons soldiers in an advancing
line could use up 80 rounds per
minute, would exhaust the load
they could carry in less than half
an hour. Advantages of concen-
trated fire are offset by troop
ers' dependence on source OF
cartridge replacement.
Army men are turning down
scores of ideas designed to
guarantee the gunners a supply
of the stuff that counts in all
engagements and under any cir
cumstance. When the right solu-
ton clicks they forecast Garand
equipped troops will provide the
u. S. with the worlds best in
fantry.
