Relocation Drug Helps
 Brain Injured

WaShlngtOn, June 22. (UP)- Veterans suffering from brain in jurieS which cause impediments of sight and speech are being treated successfully with sodium amytal- a relaxation" drug, the Army re- ported today.
 Maj. Gen. Norman T. Kirk, sur geon general, said that many of the veterans disabled by brain in- jurieS can write but they cannot read. Others can read but cannot speak aloud and some retain the ability to read but cannot compre- hend.
 The general condition of the vic- tins is called "aphasia." It is caused, in most cases, by injury of some specific area of the brain.
 Needs Respite From Worry
 In 8 report to Kirk, Capts. Louis Lin and Martin H. Stein said they found that considerable improve ment in aphasia victims could be obtained rapidly with the drug and correlated psychotherapeutic tech- niques
 Apparently it gives the injured soldier a respite from worry, which is all the brain needs to cure it. self," their report said.
 They pointed out that the brain is highly adaptive organ and when one area is Injured, nearby tissue often takes over its functions grad ually.
 Histories Listed The report listed these case his- tories of the treatment:
 l. Young soldier wounded by a shell fragment on the left side of the brain could speak fairly well and comprehend written material but was unable to read aloud. He improved rapidly with use of the drug.
 2. Another was unable to speak except in simple phrases. After one dose of the drug he could speak in complete sen- tences and name many less familiar objects which he had been unable to name before.
 3. One soldier with a com pound, depressed fracture of the skull could understand the written language but could not read it aloud. After use of the drug he could speak spontane- ously and volubly in fairly well constructed sentences.
 Kirk cautioned that the results of the experiment did not lead to instant cure.
