 This should apply not only to the regular civilian employees of the gov- ernment but also to employees in army arsenals and in navy yards and navy shore establishments owned or operated by the United States

 The president described his order to the war and navy department aS the beginning Of . pattern which eventually would mean the defer- nent Of people essential to the mus nitions industries.
 If war worker wants to enlist, he can now. The president said, however, that in the new fnanpower Eetup-.whIeh he said would be completed soon--there would be q provision for the deferment and q prohibition on enlistment of men needed more urgently in war pro. duction than in the Army.
 Asked to define essential" the president said 1t was difficult, but he cited examples to demonstrate his point Tn . cartridge factory, for instance, he said, worker who can be replaced by Q girl in three or four weeks should go Into the Army.
 On the other hand, he took the example Of two foremen he heard about on his recent trip through the country. Each man was highly skilled and in charge Of more than 26 machines. Their skill and their leadership made them valuable men, Each foreman was married but had no other dependents. One was drafted; the other deferred.
 The president said the two cases were similar and representative Of the difiiculty in achieving unifor- nity in the operations of the Selec- tive Service System.

and had used ether to put the pa
ticnt to sleep and had removed
some juniors from his neck without
any pain on the part OF the pa
tlent.
Tried by Young Doctor
The doctor was Crawford Will
hanson Long, a graduate OF the
University of Pennsylvania Medl-
cal Department. He vas then 26
years old and had only been IN
practice for a few years. Tins was
the first time that ether had ever
been deliberately used as a planned
procedure for the purpose of max
ing a patient unconscious and I'm
aware OF PAIN during a surgical
operation. Indeed, except for a
+ew sporadic and dubious trials
at one time or another through the
ages, 1t was the first time any
agent had ever been used for that
purpose.
Surgery before that must have
been d horror to watch and to eX-
perleuce. The great thing about
any operation was to get 1t over as
fast as possible. He was the best
operator who was the quickest.
Sometimes opium and brandy were
used and ~hypnotISm was tried. The
great French surgeon, Dupuytron,
once made an insulting remark to
a lady patient and when she
tainted away from SenSltlvcncSS,
operated on her before she had
time to regain consciousness. But
no method had been proved to be
satisfactory.
The Doctors Discovery
When DR.. Long was a student in
Philadelphia. he and some other
students used to mhale ether be-
cause they found its effects exhila-
rating. and when he started IN
practice IN jefferson some young
men asked him to give them some
laughing gas IN order that they
could have a good time at a party.
Ee substituted ether and they
found that it caused more liveli-
ness than either laughing gas or
brandy.
In fact, parties which were
called ether frolics" became quite
the vogue. DR.. Long noticed that
some of these young gentlemen
under ether, while lurching around,
would injure themselves quite
severely but appeared to take no
notice of the pain. In this way the
idea occurred to him that ether
could be deliberately used To in

Ether First Used in Surgery
100 Years Ago Proves q Boon

duce ins~cnsibility in surgical op-
cratlOnS.
Early in March, in 1912, 100
years ago, has opportunity pre-
scented itself. A young man named
James NJ. Venable had some tu-
morS on his neck which he wanted
removed but this he had post
poned on account of the dread OF
pain involved. Dr.. Long suggested
to him that he could put him to
sleep with ether and he would feel
no pain. In his little office in a
brick building which is still stand
ing III Jefferson, Georgia, this was
accomplished in the presence of
witnesses who were friends of Mr..
Nenable.
Later Dr.. Long operated on Mr..
Nenable again for the removal of
other tumors on his neck, and dur
ing the year 1912 he operated sew
eral times under ether for such
things as the am%putatlon of a toe,
all of which are a matter of record.
~ LttiS iIN NV iitht HIS hIS
covery known to the medical world
until after ether had been used IN
public for an operation in lS16 at
the Massachusetts General Hos
pital in Boston. This has M
what dimmed the fame of his
credit, but it is curious for us to-
day to think that this great boon
to mankind is so young as to be
only 100 years old.
