Record Of Emciency


Record Of Efficiency
Certainly every physician in the
United States, especially the medi-
cal officers of the last war, will
read with pride the record of eff
cheney and dispatch with which
the wounded were handled on that
fateful day.
Now for the medical lessons.
The four cardinal problems which
present themselves in the treat
ment of the wounded are: pam,
bemorrhdge, burns and shock.
Later the problems Of infection,
especially infection with tetanus,
and disability occur.
Pam was controlled at Pearl
Harbor because a medical officer
in the Navy in 1888 resurrected
the cid Greeley unit, used in 1918,
which is a handy morphine unit
that can be injected without fur
Their preparations; needle at
tached to a collapsible tube. Every
medical, dental and hospital corps
man had these and used them free
~. But the Naval medico in 1888
had a hard time persuading the
higher-ups to put Greeley units
back into use. They said, "Why
not use an ordinary hypodermic?"
And he replied, did you ever try
% prepare a hypodermic under
fre?' He won out, and this unit
has been proved success in actual
warfare.
Hemorrh1ge was controlled first,
of course. by stopping the bleed
ing and its bad after effects were
controlled by transfusions made
possible by the fact that every
man in service has his blood typed,
and wears his type number on his
Identification tag.
Shock was controlled largely be-
cause pain and hemorrhage were
controlled.
A Major Problem
Burns were a major problem at
Pearl Harbor, for they were very
severe. The pushing Of fluids and
use Of blood plasma for transfu-
sions were found, as experience in
civil practice has indicated, to be
necessary for the immediate symp-
toms.
Infection, especially Of burned
areas, was kept ct minimum by
sprinkling sulfanilamide powder
on the burned area. There has
never been a group of war wounds
so free Of Infection" states Cap
tain Michael, although | believe
they were very slow to heal.
The regular use Of tetanus pre-
ventive proved completely success
full. Tetanus, the nightmare of the
medical officer, was non-existent,
and even those who previously had
said "Tetanus immunization is a
cock-eyed idea" were relieved to
know it had been done.

The American Language
An Important Announcement.

An Important Announcement.
Occasionally reader will scotch
me for referring to the American
language" denying vehemently that
such thing exists. One writes,
Have you never been to school?
Apparently not, for you do not know
that the proper language of this
great Anglo-Saxon Nation is the
Kings English. I demand that you
SO inform your readers!"
Such opinions, however interest,"
Ing and sincere, are hardly authori-
tative. BY no stretch of the imag-
lnation can America be regarded
as an Anglo-Saxon Nation, nor does
the vernacular of the United States
resemble the Kings English"
But I shall not ask you to take
my word for it this time; the story
Is far too long for this modest space.
But, to refute such illfounded pro-
nunciamentos as the one above
quoted, and as a companion piece
to my recently offered History of
the English Language" I have pre-
pared a 2,0O0-word history Of the
American language. based on the
highest authorities in the land. Read
1t and be proud that you speak
American.
This is perhaps the most impor-
tant pamphlet ever offered here.
Now that our country is beginning
to take the initiative In the war of
liberation, every American, native
and foreign born, should read this
exciting account of the separate
and distinct developments Of the
American and British national dia-
lects.

West led the five of spades, East
played the queen, and South won
with the ace. East noted approv-
ingly the singleton club in the
dummy and sat back prepared to
take two clubs and q spade trick;
but rude shock was in store for
him.
South led his singleton heart to
dummy, discarded his losing spade
on the remaining top heart, then
finessed the jack Of clubs. Vests
spade discard was not entirely un-
expected in view Of the double. The
size of Easts heart plays on dunn
my's ace and king gave South a
fairly accurate idea of the doubler's
distribution, so he decided to try
for an overtrick.
He therefore led the nine of dia-
monds to dummy's ten and ruffed
spade. Next came the jack of dia-
monds to dummy's queen, followed
by another spade run. Then the
king of diamonds was led and over
taken by dummy's ace. At this point
South and East each had only four
trumps left. When dummy led the
18th diamond, East was obliged to
ruff low "a high run would have
made things easier for South.
South over-ruf1ed with the eight of
clubs and returned the club ten.
East had to win with the queen and
return a club, giving South free
f1nesse. South therefore made six,
redoubled at five, scoring 400 points
below the line and 400 for the over
trick. East's sound" double had
cost him close to TOO points!
