'CubuIunce' Drivers Devise
Better Stretcher Methods
Taxi Men Intend to Use Hacks in Defense
Work as Long as Tires Hold Out

slid through the trunk compartment
and under the rear seat. One of
these was shown yesterday at
"cabulance" demonstration at Sec
ond street and Adams drive NV.
Some of the emergency vehicles
may be equipped with two
stretchers. Drivers said recent
model Plymouth sedans might even
accommodate two stretchers under
the rear seat and one above the
seats. Most of this equipment has
been devised by the cab drivers who
are using it. The rear seat installa-
ton is SO efficient that the driver de-
monstrating it yesterday opened the
trunk, fit support blocks in place,
swung up and hooked the back of
the seat and slid the stretcher in
within As seconds.
The emergency use of taxicabs is
not new, Sergt. Joseph Harrington
of the Metropolitan Police Depart
ment says, in passing off praise for
his contributions to the "cabulance"
corps here The use of taxicabs to
transport French poilus to the first
battle of the Marine in 1914 antedat-
ed him, Sergt. Harrington points
out. After that. he says, the French
used their taxicabs for emergency
ambulances.
Called Taxi Fleet.
Fourteen years ago, Sergt Har-
rington, known as Uncle Joe" to
the "cabulance corps" made use of
taxicabs as emergency vehicles for
the first time in Washington. Of
ficials at La Plata, Md, put in a
rush call for patrol wagons for am
| bulance use when a tornado struck
school house. Sergt. Harrington
knew the local police patrol We
hicles couldn't whip up more than
Is miles an hour wide open. But
he remembered the Marine and dis
patched fleet of taxicabs to the
scene.
When Maryland officials asked for
a bill, the Black and White Cab Co.,
he recalls, just said, no, thanks, it
was overpaid by free advertising.
Now the local "cabulance" driv-
ers don't even think of publicity
They just think they ought to do
the particular emergency job they
can do. They do hope, though, that
they have better tires than unde-
pendable retreads when some bomb
victims life may depend on speed

Russian Attacks Seen
Causing Nazis 10 Delay
Offensive in Egypt
u. S. Pilots in Desert
Complain Of Having
To Miss Comic Strips
BY EDWARD KENNEDY,

Associated Press War Correspondent.
WITH THE ALLIED FORCES IN
THE WESTERN DESERT, Aug. 90.
The anticipated Axis offensive in
the Egyptian desert appeared to-
night to have been postponed, per-
haps because Of the strong Russian
counterattacks west and northwest
of Moscow.
1t is considered possible here that
the Germans, weak in the air in
Africa in recent months, had
planned to fly several hundred
planes to Egypt to back up their
land forces and have been unable
to do so because of developments
in Russia.
At any rate, the desert remains
quiet and the moon is fast waning.
The major activity is continuation
of the Allied air offensive against
Axis formations and communica-
tions.
South Africans Active.
South African squadrons are es-
pecially active in attacking enemy
positions with light bombers by day
and making fighter sweeps. South
African fighter pilots shot down two
Messerschmitts and one Macchi in
a 15-minute dogfight over the CEN
tral sector of the Ell Alamein front
this morning. They damaged sew
eral others, some of which may
have been lost.
The Germans did some scattered
bombing over the desert during the
night. One of their attacks hap
pened to be on our camp. A stick
of bombs fell some yards from .my
tent. I escaped because I was not
sleeping there, but in another place
IS miles away.
Americans Miss Comic Strips.
I had been out visiting American
pilots at another field and could not
get back by nightfall. I found the
Americans in fine spirits Their
only compaint was that they missed
the comic strips which they had
been following daily in American
papers. They wanted to know if
/ had any information on what had
befanen certain comic strip char
acters since they left America in
July.
The Americans have opened an
intensive campaign against the des-
ert's most annoying pests-flies At
the door of each tent is a big fly
tray. Flies are lured into the traps
by watermelon rinds which the
Americans say is the best fly bait
they have found They are trap
ping flies by the hundreds of thou
sands. but this has not made any
serious dent in the deserts fly
population.

it is extending its First Aid train

thousand male employees al
ready are qualifying for their

r. I. Winslow, manager for

than 1000 women employees

classes which will get under
way early in February at De-
troit, Grand Rapids, and Sagi-

The daily monitor. (Mount Clemens, Mich.) 1940-1942, 1942-02-09

At no time can an audiometer
group test be used as q final di-
agnosis of defective hearing. We
do not have q sound-proof room,
colds are prevalent, and many
children have q short attention
span. All students who register
near the danger line should be
examined by an biologist. Ex-
animation often discloses that
the only trouble Is hardened wax
or one of the many small OBJ
jects which small children will
put in the ears. II there is any
real defect, corrective treatment
should start Immediately to pre-
vent further damage to the deli
cate hearing apparatus. There
is too much deafness In the
world, most Of which might have
been prevented by early discov-
cry and treatment. The cause
of defective hearing IL usually
due to neglect Of the common
communicable diseases and
colds. Scarlet fever, measles, in
fected tonsils, and long contin-
ued colds are the worst offend
ers. We believe that there is q
direct relationship between de-
fective hearing and speech de-
fects; children pronounce words
as they hear them.
The underprivileged group
form a very high percentage in
loss of hearing. This is due to
poor nutrition, inadequate cloth
ing and lack of adequate medical
attention in illness.
Notices are sent to parents and
teachers: to the parent that they
may seek medical advice, and
to the teachers that they may
better understand the individual
student needs, seat them advan-
tageously, and give some indi-
vidual attention. Children who
do not near well are apt to pay
less and less attention and to be-
come withdrawn.
Hearing defects are very much
neglected. As the child II not

ferred to q less busy or better

teaches us that If anything Is 60
