BETTER HEALTH
BY DR.. Herman Bundesen

4 Ii sorts Of infections have
"A been treated with the new
wonder-working drug, penicil-
lin. Now a method has been
devised for using penicillin in
treating inf fections of the
mouth. An attempt 10 treat
these infections with a penicil-
lin spray had been tried preYi-
ously. but vaS found 10 he
unsatisfactory because the ac-
ton OF the penicillin is not last
ing when the drug is used IN
this form.
Drs Alexander y. MacGregor
and David A. Long Of England,
therefore, decided TO try the
effect Of penicillin in a loZcnge
The lozenge was made Of a
gelatin base. Each lozcnge was
three-eighths Of an inch square
and one-eighth of an inch thick.
The patients treated were
seen each day so that the
course Of the diseases from
which they suffered could be
carefully followed. They were
instructed 10 put one Of the
loZenges into the mouth and 10
leave II there until IL had dis
solved, without chewing or
sucking IL, and then 10 replace
IL with another. The time for
each loZenge 10 dissolve was
three-quarters of an hour. The
patients were told 10 put one
Of the loZenges into the mouth
at night before going 10 bed
and TO use another one when
A.yer they kened. The
lzenge has a slightly bitter
Taste but this was not found
unpleasant.
THE conditions treated in
Il cluded Vincent's angina or
trench mouth. streptococcal
tonsillitis. scarlet fever, infec-
tons in the mouth following
operations, such as removal Of
the tonsils or injury TO the bone
and lining membrane Of the
mouth following difficult
tooth extraction.
A number Of patients with
trench mouth were treated with
the penicillin lozenge All of
them became free of symptoms
within "a hours. including
number who had a great deal
of pain, sleeplessness, and
fever. In 48 hours, the ulcers
or sores in the mouth had
begun TO heal and all active
signs of inflammation of the

WHEN Donald Nelson was In
w China setting up the Chi
nese war production board, the
Chinese bankers insisted on 20
per cent interest. Nelson felt
this figure was too tall. But he
was unable to convince them.
Finally, Nelson intoned these
lines: "If you don't care about
Chinese lives, that's your busi-
ness. But when you persist I'm
delaying the war effort, II means
American lives. And II that IL
your purpose, to hell with you"
That blunt expression from
Donald Nelson, American, ended
the argument.
The bankers agreed to the
lower interest rate and gave Mr..
Nelson a sumptuous banquet
with all the traditional Chinese
delicacies and squeaky music.

gums themselves had cleared
up. Within FIVE days the I'M
provement was 50 great that
treatment was stopped.
No patient had any other
treatment and no recurrence Of
the infection occurred over
period Of three and one-half
months.
THE cases Of streptococcal
Il tonslllItIs treated became
free Of fever within u hours in
most instances. and all were re-
levcd Of fever within two days.
Within one day the local symp-
toms were greatly benefited.
Since streptococcal tonsillitis
causes sore throat. this relief
IS, Of course, welcome 10 the
patient.
In severe case Of scarlet
fever IN one adult. the improve
ment was 50 great that within
21 hours he was taking solid
food satisfactorily while before
treatment he had been unable
10 eat because Of the pain.
II would appear that the
penlclllm lOzengeS are useful in
preventing infections following
mouth operations. This new
method of administering peni-
clllln In mouth conditions would
appear 10 be entirely worth
while.

Third Storm Within Week

Boston, Feb. 16.-UP)-One of the fastest moving storms in years swept on into Canada today after whipping it's way l,200 miles across the nation from Nebraska to New England in N hours.
 Described by the weather bureau as very rare" the storm which was scarcely moving over Nebraska early yesterday suddenly gathered mo- mentum and sped across the na- tion at 5O-mile-an-hour clip.
 Normally, the weather bureau said, the storm would only have travelled about half the distance or 500 miles i'll 24 hours. No storm this winter has travelled so fast; nor has one of such speed occurred in perhaps two or three years, 1t was said.
 During the night, from one to four inches of snow fell in New Eng land as the storm became "elon- gated" and covered an area from southern Connecticut across Mass achusetts, Vermont and New Hainp- shire to the Canadian border.
 Rain followed the snow, covering highways with glaze of ice. DoZ- ems of accidents were reported and transportation was slowed by this third snow storm within week.
 Occasional snow or drizZling rain was scheduled in New England dur ing the day with clear and colder weather tomorrow.

5 Million Overseas

Washington. Feb. 16.-CUP)-The senate military affairs committee heard today that about flve-eights of the Army;S total manpower now is serving overseas. This would mean upwards of 5,0O0,0OO Army personnel is overseas.
 The testimony was given in closed session by Maj. Gen. Thomas T.. Handy. assistant chief of stan, as a witness on the pending work -or- else bill. Committee Chairman FL bert D. Thomas. D.. Utah. gave re- porters a sketchy outline of Handy'S testimony which he said was brought out largely in response to questions about Army utilization of its manpower.
 Handy told the committee. Thomas said, that the remaining three-eighths of the Army's per- sonnel is in the United States Of these. he said, nearly one-half are assigned to operational duties such as supply lines. Two divisions were listed as regular defense troops. About per cent of all Army per- sonnel was listed as hospitallzed.
 Thomas declined to comment on whether Handy'S testimony showed any waste of military manpower He added that because tine com- mittee desires to question Handy further, hearings on the bill will not be completed before next Mon- day. The committee had planned Q

BY THE OUT EASTER

When Waterbury policemen die, we feel sorry, just as we do when we hear of the death of a fire man. These two branches of the city government constitute Wa terbury's safety outfit, combina- tion of exceptionally good citizen ship, kicked around by many present day propagandists, who forget the good deeds of these men in time of trouble. But then, we guess, this is Life as practiced in Waterbury. in these days by many of the newcomers; 1t wasn't so in the old days though when police and firemen were considered and accepted In the ordinary sense of living.
 Charles J. Morrissey of 35 Wy man street died the other day; he was policeman, and had been on the force for nearly 25 years. He covered all sections. of the city, was known by many, and mingled and talked with these people from time to time. He may not have been as active as some others, due to poor health, at times, but just the same he was around, and saw to it that law and order prevailed during his pe- riod of observation. For our own part, we liked Charley Morris sey; we liked him for the cour- teous greeting he gave when we happened to meet. Yes, he was an Irishman by birth but he was a good American from the very first day he set foot on the soil of this country.
 A student of Irish and Amerl- can history, he was an able and intelligent talker. A large man, somewhat heavy, he possibly couldn't skedaddle like some of the more athletic men, but then by sound advice and Judgment, he was just as efficient. He never cared to see people 1n trouble, a trait, we have always admired in Man; he preferred a warning, in a minor case, rather than send person in embrassas- ment to headquarters by way Of the ugly patrol wagon.
 Charley Mossissey's views Of police duty may not have set well with higher-ups, but then Ill many instances this might have been brought about by the lack of looking back, and recalling the days of the superior as a
 patrolman. We have known this to happen in other cases. Some times, ones superiors, advanced in power and authority forget days of associations with the under strapper, and wield the power vested in the office, in manner indicative of the Hitler idea.

Manila, Feb. l6 - U.PO - With puns, catchwords and double en- tendre stories, versatile Manilans, many of whom speak half dozen dialects besides English. Spanish and some Japanese. kept alive the flame of resistance to Japan.
 Itwas obligastory, in the begin ming of the Jap conquest, for the Filipinos to bow and say 'ohayoo" (good morning., followed by a hiss ing sound made by the sharp suck ing in Of air through the teeth. This was to indicate respect for the conqueror.
 The FilipinoS bowed and said, 70 hayopw which in TagaIog means you beast" This was followed by a missing sound which the Filipinos developed to the value of a Bronx cheer.
 The Salutation nightly pleased the unsuspecting Japanese.
 At street corners and in public places Manilans were sometimes re- quired to raise their hands and shout "Banzaiw ManilanS raised a clenshed fist and Shoutel "Bankay!" (which is Tagalog for "corpse!)
 The linguiStically incompetent Japs never caught on. blaming 1t on the FilipinoS' suspected inability to pronounce.
 Domei. Japanese News Agency, became widely known as distributors of most erroneous information in another example of the play on words.
 Piam. the Jap-controlled Manila radio. came to stand for "putang ina ang Maniwala." which. cleaned and aired a bit. stands for who. ever litsens is a So-and-So's son"
 Spanish-Speaking residents fre- quently heard the names of Laurel. AquinO and Duran. three Of the principal cOllaborationists. rear. ranged as "Aqui no duran laurel" g free translation Of which means here laurel shall not last"

here's one. Peggy Maslin and Har- riet Van Horne were society editors on papers upstate. They were pals, too, and Peg would say: "Oh, Har- riet how I envy you! You have a by-line in the paper, get your pie ture taken with the important celebs and look at all the men who call you up for dates. have no signature every my stories, no pie tu:es with celebrities and my phone never rings for anything" Har- riet landed on a New York paper and Peggy sighed even more Finally, she gave up the news paper grind to drive a Red Gross clubmobile overseas. Last week Harriet picked up copy of Life and saw a layout celebrating Peggy Maslin's wedding overseas. All the pix showed Peggy kissing the 16 reporters and officers at the wedding!
