SHOULD A FAMILY
BORROW IN WARTIME?

IF YOU CAN get along without bor-
L rowing, don't get loan. That's
good rule to follow in peacetime and
an even better rule in war time.
Before you borrow, ask yourself if
you cannot solve your problem in
some other way. Ask yourself if
loan is really necessary. This is no
time for extravagant spending, no
time to borrow to satisfy a whim.
Maybe you are tempted to get a loan
in order to buy something which you
can really get along without. Don't
do it. Wait until after the war. Then
goods will once more be plentiful.
That will be the time to buy Just as
this is the time to save.

PROVIDE SPECIAL
TABLETS TO AID
THOSE WOUNDED

ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. 9.-The
greatest enemy of a wounded
standardization - although not
entirely defeated, has been put
to rout through the use of Sufanil-
amide in first aid and more adj
vanced treatment, it was an
nounced today by Colonel Chas.
G. Souder, preventive medicine
officer on the staff of the Fourth
Service Command surgeon.
Every soldier is issued a box
containing a dozen sulfanilamide
tablets to. be taken in case he is
wounded. When stretcher bear
ers take him back to a dressing
station, one of the first treat
ments is the busting of sulfanila-
mide powder into the wound.
''The impact of a bullet or
piece of shrapnel kills the It's
sue around a wound, Colonel
Souder said. "ThiS makes an
ideal breeding place for germs,
with no chance for nature to
fight back. The use of sulfanila-
mide evens up the battle and
gives nature a chance to fight
back with remarkable degree
of success.
Germs are carried into wounds
through contact of the bullet
with the clothing and skin of the
soldier, according to Colonel
Souder. The bullet, itself is prac-
tically free of infectious germs
from heat generated in firing.
Dirt from the battlefield is an
other cause of infection.
Immediate medical care is not
always possible, but the use OF
sufanilamide by the soldier will
usually stave off infection until
adequate treatment can be start
ed'.

CANCER INSTITUTE
TO BE ESTABLISHED

TAMPA, Oct. 9 FNS).-The
Florida division of the Women's
Field Army for the Control of
Cancer, proud of its splendid
record to date, will set up a can
Ger institute in Tampa.
Mrs. A. Malcolm Smith, state
commander, has just completed
a course in cancer control meth
DDS, conducted by the national
organization at Bar Harbor, Me,
where she became fully acquaint-
ed with the latest and most sue
cessful methods of control and
treatment.
The local organization will
launch a statewide program of
education and promotion to keep
the public fully informed and
hold ground already gained.
Officials point out that in most
cases., when taken in time, can
Ger can be- checked and controll-
ed if not cured. Lack of early
attention on the part of the iaf-
flicted is the greatest danger.
While the death rate from
cancer in Florida was reduced
last year, there is plenty of room
for improvement, and it is the
hope of the Women's Field Army
that an even better showing will
be made this year.

they have slowed up their ad-

rugged mountain passes.
Meanwhile, American bombers

MAKE REPORT ON
PUBLIC GRANTS
MONROE COUNTY RECEIVES
s2-oss FOR DEPENDENTS
IN SEPTEMBER
Especial to The Citixen)

JACKSONVILLE, Oct. g.
Florida's blind and near-blind
are receiving public assistance in
the amount of approximately
half a million dollars year, ac-
cording to. announcement here
today of the State Welfare
Board.
For the month of September,
the announcement said, $41,6O3
was paid in cash grants to 2.726
recipients. In Monroe county,
1l9 persons received $2,095 for
the month.
The funds went into every
county of the state, it was ex-
planned by State Welfare Com
missioner Leland M. Hiatt, who
added that in some sections loss
or impairment of vision was
more prevalent than in others,
for causes not yet scientifically
explained. AS need is a condi-
ton to the receipt of aid to the
blind, statistics as to the number
benefited reflect local economic
prosperity as well as the incl
dence of blindness, he pointed
out.
In addition to cash grants, the
state seeks to ameliorate the
condition of the blind through
the activities of the Florida
Council for the Blind, created by
the 1941 session of the Legisla-
ture.
