Streptomycin, the much publicized
miracle drug for infections in which
both the sulfa drugs and penicillin
prove inadequate, is not yet in COM
mercial production in the United
States.
1t can be obtain for civilions only
through DR.. Chester S. Keefer of the
Evans Memorial Hospital of Boston
member of the National Research
Council, who had control of all COM
mercial use of penicillin up to the
end of the war.
Several chemical companies now
are producing streptomycin, but
none is available through any drug
store or to any private physician ex-
cept through DR.. keefer. The total
supply still is short
Uses Still Limited.
The uses of streptomycin are, SO
far as present knowledge goes. quite
limited. 1t is as good, but no better
than, penicillin for a great many in
fections. 1t probably is of value
also in certain bladder infections
and in treatment of rabbit fever
Penicillin, so far as is known, is
worthless for such conditions. The
value of streptomycin in tubercu-
losis has not yet been established.
The Civilian Production Admin
istration was forced to place the
problem before the National Re-
search Council about two months
ago when, due to the great amount
of publicity regarding streptomy-
Gin, it was necessary to hire two
| extra clerks to answer telephone
inquiries regarding the drug. The
Research Council at once resorted
to the same set-up which had been
used for civilian distribution OF
penicillin-that is, virtual dictator
ship by DR.. Keefer.
The organization naturally Is
greatly concerned at charges of a
streptomycin black market. 1t is
certain that none of the reputable
chemical manufacturers is letting
this drug out of its hands without
authority. Actually they can name
their own price from the Army and
Navy. The probability is that any,
body offering the drug for sale at
any price is furnishing a homemade
product of dubious value.

De Lacy Pledges Support
To D. {. .SeIf-Governmenf

Representative De Lacy, Demo-
crat. of Washington last night
promised his full support to "seri-
Gus civic effort" to gain self govern
ment and representation for the
District in an address before the
Chillum Heights Citizens Associa-
ton, in the Luther Rice Memorial
Church, 5315 North Capitol street.
Local self-government is the in
alienable right of Washington citi-
zens," Mr.. De Lacy said. The Rep
resentative also expressed his sup
port of child-care centers for work.
ing mothers, partly subsidized by
Federal funds; hot lunch program
for local schools and an 1875 per cent
pay raise for Government employees.
The association discussed the pro-
posed monthly newspaper to serve
the Washington Federation of Citi-
zens' Associations. The publication
is intended to inform the member
associations about current legisla-
ton which would affect them.

Control of Streptomycin Throws
SUSPICION on Black Market Druu

If a doctor has patient who in
his judgment needs streptomycin,
according to the drug division of the
CPA, his first step is to go to his own
hospital and apply through this or
ganization to DR.. Keefer. If the
hospital has established no connec-
tions, he can apply to the Boston
physician himself. If DR.. Keefer
believes the care warrants use of the
drug, he will allocate an adequate
amount.
This seems like a clumsy system.
1t might require several days to OBJ
tain an adequate supply, and by that
time the patient might be dead.
On the other hand, under ordi-
nary circumstances, no streptomycin
would be available at all. The avail
able supply is sufficient only for ex-
treme emergencies. Even the Army
and Navy never have been able to
get adequate supplies.

eStock Market Uneven,
Shows First June
Loss Since 1889
By Victor Eubonk

J NEW YORK, June 2e.-The stock
market exhibited considerable ir-
regularity this week, enjoyed sub
stantial rally Thursday and showed
a net loss for June, the first aver
age setback for this month since
1899.
Dealings, on the whole, were slack
throughout the latest 5-day stretch.
Tuesdays volume dwindled to $780,
600 shares, smallest for a full ses-
sion since March IL. The week S
largest aggregate of 100000 shares
was achieved on the Thursday re-
vival
For the entire week transfers to-
tailed 5.108,34O shares compared
with 5.834,330 the week before and
IL ,324,160 in the like 1945 period.
June transactions of 21,716,872
shares were the lowest since August,
1945. For six months the total was
194,820,160 shares, against 200, ,704 ,729
In the first half of l945.
Six-Month Gain Held.
The Associated Press 60-stock
composite was up a of point at
1872 for the five sessions and for
June was down 80 points. For the
first half of 1916 net advance of 4
full points was retained.
From Monday on stocks generally,
and blue chips especially, displayed
exceptional "thinness," both worth
while bids and offers being scarce
when some one wanted to buy or
sell. The result was frequent var
iations of several points between
transactions. A big batch of extra
and increased dividends provided a
bolstering influence.
In the initial session rails were
under some pressure attributed to
disappointment over the emergency
freight rate boost which came after
the preceding Fridays close and
which was deemed insufficient by
transportation authorities to cover
rising wages and costs. Doubts re-
garding price control legislation and
talk of buyers strike some time
this year or in 1947 restrained spec
ulative and investment contingents.
Special issues, though, acted we'll

Taxable property in Lincoln
county this year is valued at S4
93O,363 as compared with a vaIua.
ton a year ago of $4,92O,64 TAI
deeds taken by the county, thus re.
moving the property from the tax
roll has caused a slight decrease
IN the assessed valuation during the
past year. The assessed valuation
July l, was $14,355, 800, the assessed
valuation July l, 1915 being $I4-,
378,594. This loss will be more
than offset when the land is sold
to private owners, the county re-
celvlng the proceeds and the land
going back on the tax roll.
The taxable valuation of Libby is
S472,347 with an assessed valuation
OF 1881 1854. Eureka's taxable val
uation is $123,935 and the assessed
valuation is $443,921. Troy's taxi

assessed valuation of $448,822.
