The secretary of commerce, the

The Senate Banking committee

|NAZIS GAVE JAPS
TECHNICAL DATA

WASHINGTON, Aug. 28.-WD-
The Germans laid open much OF
their technical knowledge to Japar:
in an attempt to keep the United
States 'as busy as possible IN inc
Pacff,c,'' Secretary of Navy James
Forrestal disclosed today.
Unwilling new information on
German scientific achievements
before We day, Forrestal salo
the Nazis sent plans and informa
ton about war developments to
the Japs by submarine. Often they
sent technicians along to help the
Japanese copy their developments.
Forrestal revealed that Ger
inan scientists had already sue
ceeded in using hydrogen perox-
ide, a seemingly innocuous anti
septic, as fuel before the Allies
won the war in Europe.
They first used peroxide in
launching devices for vi rockets
and in auxiliary pumps for the
V-2s, Forrestal said. Later the
German navy turned the new fuel
to naval uses with what looked
ike surprisingly good results" he
sdded
Forrestal also revealed that the
Germans had been working on d
true submarine which would
almost operate entirely under
water. Present ubmarines must
spend much of their time at sea
on the surface.
Forrestal said the Nazis, by
means of "Schnorkle' breathe-
pope, had been able to develop a
U-boat which could spend long
periods beneath the surface.
He said the Germans also had
developed new submarine which
hey called Model 2l," capable
Of travelling underwater at 1S
knots, a speed much faster than
heretofore attained by any undet-
water craft.

Post-Surgery Patients
Get Well Under New Plan

For example, it was found that the
action of the liver is impaired by
general anesthetic, the sort
which renders person uncon-
scious. Livers were little affected
by local anesthetics. Food, exer.
else and drugs effects were also
studied.
Before operation, the hernia pa
tients are given some mild exer.
cises for a few days. They are also
well fed.
The first day after the opera
ton when most patients are either
unable to eat at all, or only little,
t h e y receive food by IN e
or m o of several detours.
One way is through a tube direct
ly into the stomach. Others are
ed by a hollow needle into a vein.
This latter gives them either glu.
cose, or amino acids, which are
the building stones of protein
foods. By vein alone a patient may
get as much as 500 to 1900 calo-
ries in one day. Transfusions arc
also possible.
While still in bed these patients
begin mild exercises. They push
weights upward with their arms.
After the second day they begin
to walk upstairs. They proceed
Ieisurely, being careful never to
make a sudden move or effort.
No bad effects have been found.
Physical and physiological tests
have verified the improvement.
The feeding appears to be very
important. Checks have shown that
starvation, even for day, may be
most detrimental.
Along with food and exercise,
various drugs are being tried.
Some of these have been found
helpful in speeding recovery, but
that section OF the treatment has
not vet been published.

CHICAGO, Aug. % - Up - A
rapid-recovery treatment f t e r
surgery has been studied at the
University of Illinois College OF
Medicine, utilizing liver function
tests and other chemical and ply.
sical data to determine rate of con.
valescence.
Hernia patients, who normally
are not allowed out of bed for 1C
days, are getting up the day after
their operations. They walk all
around the hospital wards in less
than six days. They are ready to
60 home on their sixth postopera-
tive day, but are usually kept long
er for study.
One recent patient was out and
drove his car six days after his
operation.
Exercise, food and certain sup
plements both before and after the
operation, make the difference in
recovery time.
The treatment was tried first on
hernia patients because that ope-
ration is standardized. If the treat
ment works we'll at one place it
probably can be repeated general
ly. The next stey is to extend the
treatment gradually to other types
Of surgical operations. Gall-bladd-
er patients may be the next as
that, too, is a standardized surgi-
cal procedure.
The new treatment was develop
ed as part of a war medicine pro-
ject in the department OF internal
medicine and surgery by Drs. Rob-
ert Keeton, w. H. Cole, H. H. Nit
chell, N. o. Galloway and Mr.. N.
Glickman.
In the beginning Of this project
a study was made of the dam
age done to the body by a surgical
operation and by the aneSthetlc.

The nations strike total, includ-
ing many idled in long standing
touched around the 5o,-
900 mark yesterday, a new high
for the last several days.
The bulk of the workers off their
jobs were involved in disputes at
plants and business which broke
out before Japan's surrender Offer
two weeks ago. There have been
many small strikes and walkouts
since, but most Of them were
quickly settled.
The Detroit area, which was the
hardest section hit by work stop
pages in wartime, reported a
series of labor disputes Monday
which kept idle some 10,500. One
of the newest walkouts involved
500 at four Gar Wood Industries,
Inc, plants, but spokesmen for
UAW-CIO Local $50 said that SEN
iority grievances of the employees
had been settled and that produc.
ton would be resumed yesterday.
Another new dispute in the mo-
tor city kept 500 off their jobs al
the Murray Corporation of Amer
lea.
The biggest single stoppage II
the Detroit area was at the Kel
sey Hayes Wheel Co., where 4,5O(
were idle, while 1,500 workers al
the Ford Motor Co. Rouge plan1
were set home Moday night aftel
the Kelsey-Hayes strike halted the
flow of wheels and brake drums
to the plant.
The largest Of the new disputes
was in Savannah, Ca, where
about $500 employees of the Savan-
nah Machine and Foundry compa.
nv were idled in a dispute which
union leaders said stemmed from
proposed reinstatement of a pre-
war contract provision for double
time for overtime.
A sitdown strike of 5000 en-
ployes at the Campbell Soup COM
pany plant in Camden, N. j., end
ed Monday night after one day
when the firm agreed to a three
cent-an-hour wage increase retro
active to March l.
A week-long stoppage at the
Sloss- Sheffield Steel & Iron Co. at

Monday night, enabling some l,
900 workers to go back to thel1
