A Certain Type Of Headache

be brought on by exposure to
drafts, changes in temperature,
and after emotional upsets.
An injection of a pain-deaden-
ing substance into the tender re-
gions of the muscles seems to stop
the difficulty temporarily. Any
use of the affected muscles makes
the pain worse. Such drugs as as
pirin did not relieve the condition.
Niacin Helpful
Doctor Williams found, how
ever. that giving niacin, which is
a part Of the vitamin B-complex,
daily by injection relieved the
symptoms and that the same dose
taken by mouth, morning and
night. maintained this relief. Aft
er continuing the daily treatment
for from two to five months, the
symptoms could be controlled by
giving the niacin by mouth three
times a week.
Of those patients with myalgia
who were treated with niacin
about eight out of ten obtained
relief. 1t would seem, therefore,
that, in certain instances, pain
which appears to be deep in the
head may be due only to tender
ness Of certain Of the muscles
about the face and head ard that
treatment with nlacin in such
cases seems to bring relief.

MANY persons with headache
are apt to blame the trouble on the
%sinuses, but there are, of curse,
many causes other than sinus in
lection for headache. Thus Doctor
Henry L.. Williams Of the Mayo
Clinic, in studying patients with
head pains, found a number who
complained of sinus headache who
had tender regions in the muscles
of the head and neck. In certain
instances, pressure over these
tender areas in the muscles pro-
duced the kind of pain deep in the
head, of which the patient COM
planned.
In studying 118 such patients,
Doctor Williams noted that one or
several muscles may be involved.
In practically all cases, the affect
ed muscles were limited to one
side. When certain groups of mus
cles were affected, it was noted
that not only was there head pain
but also pain in the ears, pain on
swallowing and often a feeling as
If a sore throat were present.
After An Infection
This type of head pain or myal-
gia rs it is also called usually ap-
pears in persons more than TWEEN
ty years of age. 1t often develops

AIR POWER TAKES DIVE

WAShlNG lON-ln the 1all 'Ol 1918, the country was sWamped with Liberty (airplaneD engines. Fourteen years later, they still were being used as the power plants of some of our military planes. In the meantime, Ger many, Italy, and England, to men ton, only the leaders, had brought out new motors.
 In one wartime month, this country produced more than 24,- 900 engines for military planes. In January of this year, that same industry produced on order 23 conventional motors. Strikes pre- vented production of about 25 of other types.
 Ir 1884, the annual production of military aircraft engi n e S touched its between-war low 688.
 A little more than a year ago, Robert M. Lovett, then assistant secretary of war for air, summed up the comparative picture in these words:
 We have the advantage of a shining example of what not to do. We find it in the period fol- lowing the first World War. Sur plus Liberty engines (then) choked off our aircraft industries and de- velOpment until we fell way be- hind the procession.
 This problem of Surpluses con- tinued through 1882, II years af- ter the last war, and in 1928 brought formal protest from the War Department, pointing out that engine development for the air corps had been seriously handi- capped by the existence of this surplus hanging over the market There were 5000 Liberty engines still on hand at that date, 10 years after the war. We cannot afford to repeat the mistakes"
 Three of the major airlines al- ready have bought TOP surplus en- zines from the War Assets Corpo- ration-enough to do them for the next two years, it is estimated, in spite of the rapid growth of com merCial aviation.
 This will account for an esti- mated half of the expected com merc!al plane expansion for those two years and there are, of course, still plenty of surplus motors left that can be sold and adapted for commercial use. As a matter of fact, according to industry esti- mates, War Assets Corporation will have about 72,000 surplus en- zines Gall types) on it's hands by June and at least a third of these will be salable.
 What happens to the industry in the meantirneo
