Aids to HEARING
in Annual Meet
BY HOWARD w. BLAKESLEE

ATLANTIC CITY, June 10
Up New mechanical ears. the
start of medical art by which
doctors can write prescriptions
for hearing aids the same as
they now prescribe eyeglasses,
were shown to the American
Medical Association today.
Six types of these artificial
ears were shown, the fruits of
discoveries of the p st two
years, which include vacuum
tubes the size of the ends of
lead pencils and alloys which
pick out the sounds a deafened
person needs.
The basis of the new art is
report by the u. S. Public Health
Service showing that the ma
tons more than 100000 hard
of-hearing persons fall into six
broad classes, each of which can
be fitted for its special needs.
Men, this study shows, most
ly hear low tones well, and are
likely to be deaf only to medium
high tones. Women mostly are
deafened through all ranges of
sound. Each class is further di-
vided into three, one needing
$ oun d S amplified a million
times, the other two much less.
The hearing aids were demon

Corporation. The new principles
Ised are available to all the me

TAMPA, FLA, June 10-(A')
Captain Eddie Rickenbacker
says the United Nations will
have to maintain after the war
an "arial police force, world
wide in scope, for the next two
or three generations"
The World War l ace and
Eastern Air Lines executive
made the prediction last night in
an address at the University of
Tampa, which awarded him an
honorary electorate Of science.
He said the United States air
force for the current conflict
should have at least 100000
combat pilots, 100000 instruct
ors and 100000 technicians.

stoutest. They have some war
value due to standing rough
handling without breaking. The
tubes make two things possible
one, unlimited application
OF sounds: two, amplification of
the sounds in which a person is
deafened more than those he
still hears well.
These sounds reach the ear
through a diaphragm, like a doll
size telephone receiver, or by
vibrating against the bone be
hind the car, in either case, the
vibrating metal plates are made
of alloys which transmit some
sounds better than others, and
the plates are chosen to fit the
deaf persons needs.

fire CAUSES GREAT DAMAGE TO
CAMPBELL CORPORATION OFFICE
Personal Belongings
And Office Records
Are Lost In Bluze

All records, office equipment
and personal belonging were lost
in a fire that RACED the office
building of the Campbell Farm
ing Corporation here shortly af-
ter II a. m. Saturday morning,
Mrs. Ola Maddox, secretary,
stated.
A one-room office building for
temporary winter quarters was
under construction Monday.
1t was said that the fire was
caused by an overheated fur
mace due to the removal of a
cold air shaft to allow workmen
to build an addition onto the
office. Flames from the furnace
spread quickly across the high
ly waxed linoleum surface of
the floor to all corners of the
room. The flames spread so
quickly that efforts to control
them by fire eXtinguishers were
futile. The prompt action of the
Hardin fire department saved
the building from burning to
ground level.
Besides the office records be-
ing lost in the fire the Christ
mas packages and letters re-
ceived for the employees at the
various camps were consumed
by the flames. The mail had ar
rived that morning and had not
been opened. Two movie CAM
eras and three photo cameras
and guns belonging to Thomas
D. Campbell, president of the
corporation, were lost as were
the cameras, field glasses and a
gun owned by Mrs. Maddox.
Pictures belonging to Mr..
Campbell taken while in Eng
land and Russia were lost. One
diary On England was saved, it
was said.
Mr.. Campbell is in Washing
ton where he is serving in the
army air forces as a Colonel.
He was notified by telephone
of the fire.

Relief Campaign
Meets Quota Here

The United China Relief CAM
paign in Big Horn county came
to a close Tuesday when Rev.
Gordon Winsor, county chair
man, announced that the quota
for the county had been sub
scribed.
Il am certainly pleased by
the results" said Mr.. Winsor.
while I never doubted the out
come of the campaign, the gen.
erous manner in which everyone
responded indicates how willing
the people of the county are
to answer a real need.
Il wish space could be given
to list the names of all those
who have contributed. That is
impossible, but I do want to
take this opportunity to thank
all those VINO have shared in
the drive. To my personal thanks
I want to add those of the ma
tional officials OF the United
China Relief Committee, and
the silent thanks of those hun
VI Cuo VI N44411CSC W44O W4AA NSAAS-
fit because of what the people
of Big Horn county have done.
The campaign could not have
been successful if it had not
been for the fine work of those
who had a part in the actual
canvass. Their interest and de-
termination to finish the job is
what made the whole effort a
success. I want them to know
how much I appreciate what
they have done. In the outlying
communities of the county the
Rev. Alfred Habegger in BuSby
and Mrs. Hester Stevenson in
Lodge Grass have been of great
help in carrying on the cam
paign in their localities. If there
are some no intended to con-
tribute to the fund but have
not done so, they can still do so
if they send their check to me.
The campaign is over but there
may be those who, for some
reason, were not seen who want
to take part"
Big Horn county'S quota of
$3.50 was a part of the national
campaign to raise between seven
and eight million dollars for the
cooperating agencies of the
United China Relief.
