Plan to Investigate
Supersonic Speeds
Army Experts Are Working on
Machine for Study.

CHICAGO.-The army is building
a new high speed aircraft for re-
search on flight faster than the
speed of sound, army air forces re-
vealed here.
Col. Philip B. Klein told the
American Society of Mechanical
Engineers that the new plane is
still a military secret but may have
swept-back wings and be tailless or
semi-tailless.
AT present, planes approaching a
speed of 760 miles an hour, which is
the rate at which sound waves
travel at sea level, seem to hit a
barrier of air piling up ahead of the
wings.
To date, planes have been unable
to pierce the wall but the new re-
search points to success, Colonel
Klein said.
The air forces now uses a rocket
powered experimental plane known
as the XS-1. 1t is launched in the
air from a BIG mother"
1.-THE XS-1 has enormously been
described as designed for super
sonic flight" the A.A.F. engineer
aviator said.
I'm reality it was designed to *
plore the transonic region and pro-
vide us with actual flight data
which might enable us to build a
supersonic airplane carrying man."
DR.. j. M. Zucrow, professor Of
jet-propulsion at Purdue university,
told the convention that man-carry-
ing rocket ships capable Of shooting
out beyond the pull of gravity can
be developed as soon as problems
Of cooling and controls are solved.
He added that this development
will not need to await the use of
atomic power.
A multi-step rocket, constructed
so each step or section drops away
as soon as its propellant is ex-
hausted, could be developed with
materials and fuels.

Britain, U. S. Withholding
Details of Secret Weapon

AUCKLAND, NEW ZEALAND
The British Empire and the United
States are Withholding from other
countries all details of a new weap-
on said to equal the atom bomb in
deadliness.
Work by a team of New Zealand,
British and American scientists on
the weapon was said to be continu-
ing.
Existence of the weapon was re-
ported with the announcement that
Prof. T. D. j. Leech of Auckland,
described as the leading figure in
the project, had been decorated by
King George.
1t was understood the new weapon
could be applied in a number of
ways, one of them being similar to
an atom bomb.
Research did not reach the stage
of practical application during the
war, informants said, but has pro-
crossed since then.
Development to a state of prac-
teal application has not cost nearly
as much as producing atomic en-
ergy, it was stated.
Without discounting the weapons
effectiveness, they said, it does not
offer such a threat to world peace
as the atom bomb.
The idea for the weapon came
from a Wellington, N. T., man who
passed it on to the army in De-
cember, 1943.

Cures Cut Down
Paralysis Toll
New Treatments Promise
Hope in War Against
Dread Disease.

ATLANTIC CITY. N. J.-Discov-
cry Of several treatments for the
most fatal kind of infantile paral-
ysis-treatments that both save
lives and get the children well with
very little crippling-was reported
to American Medical association by
DR.. A. B. Baker of Minneapolis.
This disease is bulbar infantile
paralysis, so named because its
seat of destruction is in a bulb Of
gray matter the size of a walnut
at the top of the spinal cord. This
gray walnut is part of the brain.
The discovery was made by a
team of doctors from University Of
Minnesota in the infantile paralysis
epidemic in Minnesota last summer.
National Foundation for Infantile
Paralysis contributed one million
dollars of March of Dimes money
for this work.
Death Ratio Reduced.
The bulbar type in the past killed
80 per cent of its victims. This was
reduced to 80 per cent in Minneap-
oils, despite the fact that the rem
edies were discovered during the
outbreak, too late for some of the
child victims to be treated with
them.
Autopsies gave the clues. They
revealed that instead of being one
type of ~infantile paralysis, as was
thought previously, the bulbar kind
is five different types.
In Type I, children choked to
death. Autopsies showed this vas
because nerves in the bulb that con-
troll swallowing had stopped their
work temporarily. Secretions that
naturally gather in threats we're do
ing the choking because the children
could not swallow. The treatment
for this was inserting temporarily a
tube in the windpipe, thus permit
ting breathing.
In Type II, IT. controlling
breathing went out of commission
in the bulb. Patients could not
breathe rapidly enough and died of
asphyxia. Breathing pure oxygen
remedied these cases.
Blood Flow Affected.
Type III concerned bulb nerves
controlling blood flow. Blood pres
sures would jump to 200 and then
drop below 70 erratically and the
child was likely to die of shock while
the pressure was down. Very few
have. this type and no treatment for
it was discovered.
Type w affected nerves that con-
troll the amount of oxygen reaching
the brain. The brain needs oxygen
more than other tissues, and the
patients were mentally confused as
the supply was reduced. Breathing
pure oxygen supplied their oxygen
starved brains.
Type V was a mixture of some Of
the others, plus paralysis of breath
ing muscles in the chest. For these
an iron lung with the other RENE
dies added as needed, gave good re-

Everything Comes in Cans;

SEATTLE.-Mrs. Lillian Irene
Nelson, boarding housekeeper,

vestment but a bank objected.
Mrs. Nelson bought two cans
of SCOT remover at an auction
held by a bank to settle the eff
fects of a deceased client.
At home she found $7,720 in
tightly wadded $40 bills in the
cans.
The bank served her with a re-
straining order. She can't spend
