skin grating much more sue

THE skin graft is spread over

easily and is sewed into place
with fine silk thread. The
graft is then covered with a
nonirritating dressing such as
vaseline gauze Then a firm
bandage is applied.
The dressing is left in place
for about four days unless there
Is some pain, tenderness, or
fever. Then the wound is in

any infection has developed. and
If infection is present, proper
treatment is given.
Skin grating is not a diff
cult procedure. and should al
ways be utilized without DELAY
In large burns TO keep deform-

That three ring thing is not
bad idea. Might be tried out in

However, the diamond en-

The females here would never

The wedding band could also

POLITICAL PARADE
BY George Rothwell Brown

GAN FRANCISCO. April 23-
~ The first Official action of
the American delegation to the
United tions conference
should be a request, politely
but firmly insisted upon, that
all existing secret agreements
between heads of the Allied
states be revealed in full view
Of all the people.
We know of one such agree
ment, and only one. the agree
ment reached at Yalta which
gave Russia three votes in the
assembly created by the Dunn
barton Oaks declaration.
This secret agreement. sub
sequently officially confirmed,
came to light only by accidental
newspaper publication, but for
which fact ii is clear that Presi-
dent Roosevelt would have car
ried il with him to the grave,
and that ii would not have been
disclosed until the San Fran
cisco conference discovered it.
IN THE light of the late presi-
Il dents death IL Is now
apparent that the premature
newspaper publication. while he
was still alive, was of immense
Importance.
This is the only secret agree
ment reached between Roose-
velt, Churchill and Stain which
the first of these three publicly
acknowledged.
But are there others. Of which
the public is still in ignorance
If so. there should be a frank
and complete statement about
them at the very outset of the
conference.
Since the agreement regard
ing the three assembly votes for
Russia is the only one Roosevelt
admitted having made before
he died, II Is the only secret
political agreement which the
American delegation might be
assumed to be obligated TO
carry out, or at least not to
repudiate.
TIIE question Of the trustee
l. ships" for various conquered
areas has assumed significance
which has led TO increasing ap-
prehension in San Francisco, on
the eve of the world conference,
that this question also may in
volve a secret agreement.
First revealed In British quar-
ters the trusteeship plan as IL
might affect strategic islands In
the Pacific captured by Ameri-
can military and naval forces is
certain TO be as unacceptable to
Congress as IL Is to our navy.
II a trusteeship agreement
the old mandate" of the old
League of Nations in another
guise-has been reached, the
American delegates to the con-
ference should make II clear
that they are not prepared TO
adhere to IL, and will not ad-
here 10 il.

ONE of the chief dangers aris-
" ing from burns is the pos
sible occurrence Of large scar
formation during healing. The
amount of soaring Will. OF
course. vary with the extent OF
the damage done 10 the tissues.
Then deformits results from
contraction or shrinkage OF the
skin when healing takes place.
Thus, in the treatment of burns
II is important TO replace the
lost skin by means OF skin
grating or transplanting.
In skin grating there are GER
tain definite things which are
necessary so that the implanted
skin viii take. that is, that the
skin will grow.
TO BEGIN with, the burned
Il area must be practically
free from infection before the
grating IL done. This can be
brought about by using dress
ings Of sterile salt solution
alternating with dressings OF a
chlorine solution for a period
OF "a hours before the graft is
done. II there is any excess
scar tissue present IL should be
removed with sharp razor
with as little injury as possible
to the underlying tissues. Fol-
lowing the removal Of this
tissue, all bleeding must be
completely checked. This can
be accomplished by using warm
salt-solution packs for a few
minutes. In some cases il may
be advisable 10 apply gauze
soaked in epinephrine since
epinephrine causes contraction
OF the blood vessels and checks
the bleeding. The skin area
from which the CRAFTS are to be
taken must be cleaned with
some acceptable antiseptc.
In recent years, an instru-
ment known as a dermatone
has been invented which makes
II possible to cut off large
pieces of skin 3 TO 5 inches

THERE has always been an
i undercurrent of hostility
between playwrights and stars.
Scriveners believe thespians are
merely mouthpieces for their
lines, while make-believers are
equally certain their perform
ances are responsible for the
success of any play. When the
two eges are rubbed together,
a bonfire of controversy is in
evitable.

playwright Lillian Hellman and
The Tallulah recalls James NJ.

career by walking out on the

American Senate will never
consent to any treaty which
gives us only a mandate right
over islands where so many Of
our heroic sons made the su-
preme sacrifice, and where they
lie buried.
But this question does not
rest wholly upon sentiment. 1t
rests upon a vital need for
naval bases near the Asiatic
continent. We need not merely
the right to fictitious possession
under a trusteeship. We need
the right to hold these bases
and to FORTIFY THEM.
This is the position publicly
taken by Adm. King.
1t should be the American
position taken at the United

If any secret agreement to the
contrary stands in the way it
