KIWANIANS HEAR
M'MILLAN SPEAK

| The functions of the Alcoholic
beverage Control board were ex
planned by w. D. Macmillan
chairman Of the New Hanover
county ABC board, in an address
at the weekly meeting of the XII.
wants club Wednesday.
Introduced by Postmaster Viii.
bur D er, Mr.. Macmillan
termed the control plan by coun-
ties 'the most successful way OF
curbing bootlegging and other I'M
derworld activities"
Prior to the establishment of the
board in 1885, he said, in the
downtown section of the city there
were rs places at which whiskey
might be obtained and over $50
such establishments in the city as
whole.
These places, he continued, were
headquarters for all gambling ac-
Invites, as well as other organ
lied vice. In one place, he de-
clared, High school children were
served whiskey.
Mr.. Macmillan said that it was
because of this state of affairs that
he took over the job of serving
on the ABC board. These places
were wiped out, and he expressed
the belief that Wilmington was rel
atively free of crime developing
around bootleg activities.
Emphasizing that the bootleg
liquor money had gone to sources
not interested in the good of the
community, sources that were
willing to break any law, he point.
ed out that the revenue which has
come to the city and county under
the control plan has enabled local
governments to provide many
things which would have otherwise
been impossible.
Mr.. Macmillan cited as an OK
ample the plight Of dry counties,
which still have bootleg opera
tons. In one large city, he said,
an establishment with five switch.
board operators at one time was
providing package service.
He expressed the belief that, IN.
der prohibition, the Capone regime
was made possible with it's con.
troll reaching into many phases o1
life.
He offered federal figures to
show the immense amount Of rev.
enue obtained from the liquor
trade. Since the sale of liquor be.
came legal, federal taxes have
been collected totaling $4,000, 00O,.
COO. In North Carolina, total prot.
its to the counties operating I'm.
der the liquor control law have
amounted to more than $4,000, O0(
and in New Hanover county, more
than $2,000,000 has been collected
with the division between the city
and county governments being ap.
proximately million and quar-
ter to the city and over $500, 0OC
to the county.
Explaining the apparent in
crease in volume of sales, M.
Macmillan said that since 1885,
federal taxes had risen to SO a
gallon on beverages with an al.
lowed 81 added by the board for
revenue, making a total of $11,
which would naturally increase
gross income from sales balancing
the drop in actual sales, due to
shortages existing in the supply.
Earlier in the program, Mrs.
Eric Norden, prominent local mu.
stefan, made an appeal for funds
to make possible the North Caro-
lima symphony. Mrs. Norden said
that the quota for this area is
$4,000 and urged that contributions
be made Immediately. Durham,
she said, had raised over $40, 900.
N. E. Wright, district field
chairman of the United War fund,
was introduced, as guest of the
club. Also introduced was Ensign

invasion of Java, previously the source of most of the worlds sup ply of quinine, quinidine has also been very scarce.
 Fagarine comes from the leaves and young twigs of Fagara coco, a tree growing in central and north ern Argentina.
 Fagarine is more active in its effect on the heart than quinidine when given in the same doses, an- imal studies showed.
 Six patients, two with auricular flutter and four with rheumatic heart disease and auricular fibril- lation, have been given fagarine by Dr. Taquini, the heart special ist of the five-man research team. in all but one of these patients, quinidine in the usual dose had failed.
 Within 30 minutes after a single dose of fagarine, injected into the muscles, normal heart rhythm was restored in all six patients. In one patient the flutter started up again 28 days later. Another dose of fagarine was again enough to restore the normal rhythm.

NEW DRUG BEATS TIME FOR HEART

The discovery of a possible sub stitute for a heart disease medi- cine now very scarce because of the war is announced by five Ar genuine scientists in a recent issue of "Science,' reports Jane Staff ford of Science Service" The scientists are Dr. Venancio Deu- lofeu, pr. Rafael Labriola, Dr. Alberto Taquini, all of the Uni versity of Buenos Aires, and Dr. Oscar Orias and Dr. E. Moisset de Espanes of the University of Cor doba.
 Fagarine is the name of the new drug controlling heart rhythm From tests on animals and human patients, it seems likely to prove effective in heart disease charac- terized by "flutters" and other disturbances of the heart rhythm.
 Quinidine has previously been used in such forms of heart dis ease. AS its name suggests, quini- dine is related to quinine and like quinine is obtained from the bark of the cinchona tree. Since the Jap

The Soviet Tass Agency an nounces that a Prof. Modestov of the Molotov Special Institute has evolved new preparation, termed blueblood, for use as blood sub stitute against shock, it is reported in PPM" The preparation is said to have greater effectiveness" than other solutions used for sim liar purposes.
 With mineral water as a base, blueblood's chemical composition closely resembles blood plasma, says the Tass dispatch.
 It also asserts that animals in jected with the solution recovered from states of shock within two minutes, and that the preparation can be kept in ampule form for years and is "500 times cheaper than blood citrates."
 Tass declared that blueblood could substitute for 75 per cent of the total volume of blood in the body.

Harper said that he is sending
copies of the state warning to
the Shores Commission, in the
hope that some action will be
taken to protect public health
before the 1946 summer season.
Following is the text of the
letter received by Harper from
w. F. Sheppard, chief of the
division of sewage and sewage
treatment. Michigan Department
of Health:
In relation to the matter of
public bathing at the outlet of
the Nine Mile Drain, it is our
opinion that this practise should
be discouraged in every way
possible. Even with perfect op-
Grafton of facilities now avail
able there are, of necessity,
times when sewage will be and
is discharged to the lake at this
point. Swimming under such
conditions is foolhardy prac-
tise comparable to looking down
the muzzle of gun, and likely
to be equally dangerous.
Every reasonable precaution
should be taken to warn people
against bathing at this locality,
and certainly you would be well
justified in using every means
available to you in preventing
any property under your control
from being used for such pur.
poses"

On the face of it II appeared
that neither of these would have

The business was founded in

and j. H. Uhlig, both of Detroit,
Michigan, as jobbing machine
shop. 1t began the manufacture
of washing machines in 1917,
and continued in this business
until 1920. BY this time the first
Ironrite Ironer models had ben
designed and were then offered
for sale. 1t is interesting to note
that the Company, even though
able to obtain sufficient volume
in the washing machine business,
was willing to switch to ironers,
because the management was
confident then as it is today that
the future of the domestic iron
er is much brighter than that of
the washing machine.
The Company was incorpor-
ated under the laws of the State
of Michigan on March 30, 1921
under the name Sperlich and
Uhlig Company. It's corporate
name was changed to The IRON
rite Ironer Company on May IL,
