Skin 1mpetigo

BY C. N. CHRISMAN, MD.
IMPETIGO CONTAGIOSA is
: a big name for a very COM
mon and distressing disease OF
the skin, especially Of the face.
It is extremely contagious and
is very common in children Of
school age. though older folks are
not exempt. We frequently observe
rather severe epidemics of 1t. espe-
cially after school opens in the fall.

hands and wrists and various other
parts of the body. The eruptions on
the face and hands make ugly sores.
Infection Is carried from one child
to another. by direct contact in

use Of common towels. books or in
an exchange Of clothing.

skin and look as II they were at

The edges Of the diseased patch

ing only q scaly ring. Unless the
infection is deepened by scratching
and rubbing, there Is no scar left
after recovery.
The disease takes many forms
and it is not uncommon to see ten

over the cheeks and chin In all
stages Of development. We often
blame uncleanliness for the trouble
and we expect to see 1t among the
children Of the poor and ill-housed.

foundation for a stew. Besides the
use of different meats, variation Is

Donald Nelson Claims Na- ton Has to Do More for
 Production

Washington, Nov. 6.-(UP)-Chair- man Donald M. Nelson of the War Production Board told the Senate military affairs committee today that the nation can do more than it has to conserve manpower and that a longer work week and increased pro- ductivity will be necessary.
 Nelson said that sooner or later Congress will have to enact stan dards for manpower authority in legislation.
 We haven't done everything yet that could be done to conserve man. power" Nelson said, testifying in connection with pending bills deal ing with the manpower problem. We have got to lengthen the work week. We have got to increase pro- ductivity through better manage ment. 6-
 There shouldn't be as much ab- senteeism in our plants-Monday morning sickness and payroll sick ness"
 President Roosevelt is not ex- pected to ask for any early legisla- tion dealing with manpower. be- cause he reportedly feels the prob lem can be met through an execu- tive order expected to be issued shortly.
 The selective service system, for instance, may be put under control of the war manpowar commission in order to achieve closer coopera- tion in distribution of manpower

Corporation Counsel Maurice T. Healey, appearing for the city, stated there was no cause of action and that the plaintiffs failed to in- dicate in their complaint that the injuries were caused by an act or omission on the part of the city. "They are claiming an absolute nu- isanoe and not 6 nuisance because of negligence" the corporation counsel stated. "What is the cause of the accident-running into the stanchion or the stanchion itself" he asked.
 Atty. Francis P. Guilfoile, counsel for the plaintiffs, claimed the driver of the car could not see the stan- chicn until he was so close to it that collision could not be avoided,
 The accident occurred at night in rainy weather. It is alleged that the city was negligent for failing to remove the obstruction when 1t had knowledge of the nuisance. Ref erence apparently is made to the numerous other accidents which have occurred at the scere.
 The plaintiffs are Paul DeLa- Hunta, driver, who seeks $25,000 damages; his wife. Bessie, who asks for $50,000: Edwin MacKeever and his wife, Doris, who seek $25. 900 and $10,000, respectively.

Vichy French Officials Seek ArmistiCe; island
 Will Be Returned

London, Nov. 6-(UP)-A British military spokesman announced today that fighting on the island of Madagascar ceased at two p. nj. Madagascar time yesterday after Vichy French officials asked for an armistice
 The French sought a truce after British Imperial forces had almost completed occupation of the island.
 The British first landed Madagas- car last May, but only occupied the big northern naval base of Diego Squarez and adjacent territory.
 Occupation of the entire island began Sept. 10 when British land. sea and air forces attacked at three points on the west coast--Nosybe Island, commanding Ambanja, 124 miles south of Diego Suarez: Ma junga, the largest west coast port, 320 miles southwest of Diego Suarez and Morondava, 340 miles farther south.
 The war office said the attacks were ordered after negotiations with the governor of Madagascar, Gen. Armand Annet ito deny Axis powers bases and facilities elsewhere in the island" failed because of op- position from the Vicy government.
 It was believed here that Japa- nese submarines were using Mada- gascar as a base.
 Tn Washington. the State Dejart- ment said the British action had the United States governments ap- proval. and that Madagascar would be returned to France after the war.
 Annet sought an armistice Sept. IS, but rejected British terms the next day. The British occupied Tananarive. the capital, Sept. 9 and by Oct. l6 captured Ambositra, l42 miles farther south "after stiff fighting"

STALIN SURE OF.
 SECOND FRONT
German Success This Year Due to Absence, Says
 Russian Leader

Moscow, Nov. 6 -(UP)- Josei Stalin asserted in a speech tonight that there twill be a second front sooner or later"
 Stalin made the statement after telling a 18th Red revolution an- niversary gathering that Germany's success on the eastern front this year was due to the absence of a second front in Europe.
 But there will be a second front sooner or later" he said. Not be- cause We want it but because the Allies understand it is vital to them"
 To a cheering Communist party rally on the eve of the 18th anni- verSary of the Russian revolution Stalin said that Germany "took advantage of the absence of a sec- ond front in Europe" to collect powerful forces which had broken through the Russian southwestern lines to depth of 500 miles at some points.
 He contrastsd the German sum-
  mer successes with those of the Red army last winter when the Russians advanced as much as 250 miles at some points.
 However, he asserted that the Red army had fought the Germans to the point where the time table they had set up for the conquest of south Russian had bNen hattAred out of existence.
 He said that documents found on German staff officer showed they had expected to capture Stalingrad July 25 and Saritov on August 10. The main objective of the Ger mans, he asserted, was to cut of south Russia from the remainder oi the country and generally weaken

 BOUTS GERMANS
All Stalingrad Attacks Re- pulsed; Nazis Held at
 at Nalchik
BY HENRY SHAPIRO United Press Staff Correspondent

Moscow, November 6. - (UP) - The Soviet Army routed German forces around Stalingrad factory today, while slowly bleeding the pinned down Nazis southeast of Nalchik in the Caucasus.
 The defenders of Stalingrad smashed every German attack, and, on the limited sector where they routed the Germans, advanced. So- viet bombers streaked out and bombed German positions and troop concentrations.
 "In the Stalingrad area, Soviet troops repelled in fantry and tanks," " the noon communique said. Tn a factory area, they smashed and routed two companies (400 men) and somewhat improved their positions.
 "on another sector, large enemy forces attacked artillery positions, but were driven back after Soviet gunners over open sights had de- stroyed eight tanks. Soviet airmen bombed hatle formations, destroyed seven artillery and six mortar bat teries and partly wiped out a com pany."
 Northwest of staiingrad, Soviet ar- tillery blew up IA enemy pillboxes and silenced number of guns. On another sector, Soviet scouts att tackled the Germans from behind, destroyed lS supply carts and killed 40 enemy soldiers.
 Stubborn and big battles ragged southeast of Nalchik, from where the Germans are trying to drive to the Grozny oil fields and Ordzho- nikidze, terminus of two military roads to the southern Caucasus.
 However, the Soviet high com mand had not reported 6 German advance southeast of Nalchik in the last three days, and a curtain of shell, machine gun and mortar fire was reported sapping the enemy's strength.
 A regiment (3,000 men) attacked on one sector, the noon communique asserted, but retreated after losing 300 killed and seven tanks.
 The Russians steadily advanced northeast of Tuapse naval base on the Black Sea, and the noon com munique reported that they had killed 300 more Germans and taken prisoners, in addition to seizing
