Georgia Gives TubercuIars
Lung Collapse 'RefiIIs'

By the Associated Press.
ATLANTA, Nov. 4.-To care for
its thousands of impoverished tu-
berculars who can't be handled in
the crowded sanitoriums, Georgia Is
providing as State service the
lung collapse" treatment long avail
able only in hospitals.
The treatment, pneumothorax.
consists of collapsing an infected
lung so it can rest and mend itself.
For best results the lung must be
kept in a state of collapse for
months and that is the chief OBJ
jective of the new State service.
Air is injected into the chest cav
ity with hypodermic needle
through the back near the shoulder
blade. This air pressure f1attens
the lung but it will slowly resume its
natural shape and 60 back to work.
To prevent this 1t is necessary for
the patient to have an air refill"
about twice month.
The Georgia tuberculosis" AsSo-
citation started refill" service,
working through clinics and volun-
teer doctors. The State Health De-
partment now plans to carry on this
work on an expanded basis. princi-
pally for walking patients, whose
cases are not serious enough to war
rant their admission to sanatoriums
but who need the pneumothorax
treatment and cannot afford 1t.

The literary fraternity likewise
took to campaigning with enthu-

Mr.. Willkie. Dorothy Thompson
columnist, and a Democratic bat
talon of writer's showed equal zeal
for the Roosevelt cause.
Mrs. Roosevelt Relatively Quiet.
Mrs. Roosevelt, whose energy re-
quires no adjectives, has been rela-
lively quiet during the campaign
Most of the time she has been at
Hyde Park, N. Y. She held two
political rallies there and she spoke
briefly at several other political
gatherings. predicting Democratic
victory in one of her final talks.
Mrs. WILKES speechmaking has
been limited to Hello" She has
travelled with the candidate on his
record-breaking campaign tour,
criss-crossing the country.
The women have been talking for
their favorite candidate, but good
number have had a word to say in
their own behalf. Many are cam
paigning for Congress, for State
Legislatures and for other State and
local offices. If they run true to
form they should have the last word
in the campaign.

Never since women gained the
vote 20 years ago have they played
such an active part in campaign
or represented such potent fac
tor at the polls as they have done
in the political contest which will
determine. among other things
whether Eleanor Roosevelt continues
at 1900 Pennsylvania avenue or
gives place to Edith Willkie.
The Republican National Com
mittee estimated that there are
100000 women eligible to vote out
of some so 100000 qualified men and
women in the Nation, and the DEM
ocratic National Committee has fig
ures showing that in several States
women voters actually outnumber

Noting this and the exceptional
activity of women in this campaign
how they've stumped for their
candidates, organized workers,
pushed doorbells and sat at tele-
phones-Miss Marguerite Wells,
president of the National League of
Women Voters, predicted that
never again will womens full parti-

The league, partisan organ

vote, but in the fact that they do

literature "On How to Get Out the
Vote" and How to Conduct Cam

RYE, new YORK,
NOT RESPONSIVE
Rye, England, Wanted to
Send Children, But Get
i No Encouragement

Rye, N. Y, July 2--(UP)--Mayor
Livingston Plat Of this wealthy SUI
burb Of New York city, received this
radiogram from Rye, England:
Greetings. Would Rye, America,
give hospitality to children Of Rye,
Sussex, England, including mayors
wife. four children, and nurse? Let
ter follows"
Mayor Plat telephoned the mem.
bers of the village board Of trustees
and officials Of its charitable organi-
j zations and last night they met in
the colonial village hall, under
framed picture Of peaceful colonial
scenes.
I'VE are confronted tonight by an
urgent matter" the mayor told the
assemblage. eff we are to do any
thing, time is the very essence"
He explained that Rye, N. Y, was
founded in 1860 by immigrants from
Rye, England, which is on the straits
Of Dover, probably one of the first
villages that would be hit in any in
( vasion Of England. He explained that
village funds could. not be used
that the children would have to be
cared for by private funds and Or
CARNATIONS. Before he called the
meeting, he had found out that the
children would have to come in rn-
der immigration quotas, that each
would have to have a sponsor, that
each sponsor would have to assume
complete financial responsibility, that
II any child was orphaned, its spon-
SCR would have to support it until
1t was sell supporting.
What Type Of People?
MAY ! ask what type Of people
live in Rye, Fngland?" asked Mrs.
Max Wallerstein.
"Rye is one of the oldest towns In
England and was town when the
Romans came there In As B. c." said
John M. Morehead, former mayor
and former ministers to Sweden.
"The people are of fine stock. We'd
make no mistake on that score"
Someone interposed to say 1t was
"a sleepy little resort village where
most Of the people work for the
gentry and are not even middle
class, but poor"
'There will be air commandments
and other terrors," said Mrs. Wallen-
stein. IF we wait a year we may
get lot Of neurotic wrecks instead
Of normal children"
IT think that, If we are going to
do something for these children, we
should have some choice as to what
children are to come into our COM
munity," the mayor, said. II don't
mean that they should all be lords
and ladies but we might get group
OF the most under-privileged."
Not Half to Go Back
"When the war is over not half
Of these children will go back"
Morehead said. most Of them will
be orphans and some may be dis
claimed. We want those who will be
good citizens of Rye"
II don't think We want to disrupt
our homes until we know what we
are headed for" the mayor said.
''Then we can all get otgether again
soon"
Today, Mayor Platt sent this ra-
diogram which was the sense Of the
meeting: 4.
"Radiogram received. Rye, N. Y,
has DEEPEST sympathy for people of
Rye, England, and their children,
and wishes to help as best it can
but feels more details and informal
ton necessary as to numbers and
ages before can say what can be
done. Check American embassy for
immigration quotas and other regu-
lations. Awaiting further commu-
nication."
