Duluth I~naugurates
tuberculosis Drive
Operation OK Designed to End
Disease Within City.

DULUTH, MINN.-A 10-year ex-
pertinent designed to end tubercu-
losis by using chest X-rays on every
incipient case was launched this fall
by Duluth.
This city is the first of its popula-
ton class in the nation to try this
case finding on everyone, regardless
of age. The plan, known as Opera
ton CX (Chest X-rays) is under di-
rection of DR.. Mario Fischer, city
health director, and DR.. Roberts d.
Wis, assistant superintendent of No
peming sanatorium and director of
the mobile X-ray unit.
The X-ray costs about 35 cents a
person. The bill will be footed by
funds raised from Christmas seal
sales and by help from the Nopem-
ing sanatorium.
The mobile X-ray unit, purchased
with money raised from the annual
Christmas seal sales, is manned by
two technicians and a nurse. Vol
unteer canvassers notify families of
each neighborhood before the trail
er arrives. X-ray negatives are proc
essed at the sanatorium. Results are
reported in two weeks and each per-
son X-rayed receives an individual
report.
Total cost of the operation is about
$25, 900 a year.
The OK operation in st. Louis
county began in 1913. In two years
the tuberculosis death rate in the
operation area dropped 40 per cent
faster than in Duluth. The X-rays
uncovered three times more tuber-
culosis than had been known before.
Catching these cases early resulted
in a higher proportion of improve
ments and r%ecoveries. More i'm
portant, early detection greatly re-
duced the exposure of healthy peo-
pie to TB carriers.
In Ely, at the start, the incidence
of tuberculosis was 81 persons per
100, 900. After three years, the Incl
dence was II per 100, ZOO. DR.. Fisch-
er said that the Ely experience in
dictates that a resurvey by X-rays
probably is not needed oftener than
once each three years.
The taking of chest X-rays is vol
untary. In the county the response
ranged from SO to SO per cent. The
county survey incidentally uncov-
cred occasional cases of goiter, lung
cancer and heart troubles. +:

Former Navy
Petty Officers
May Reenlist

The Navy Department has an
nounced. that former Navy petty
officers discharged in certain
ratings since VI Day may now
reealist as petty officers with
only slight reduction in grade.
Former Navy men have not
previously been eligible to re-
enlist as petty officers if they
have been separated from the
service more than three months.
This new procedure will permit
reenlisting certain men, whose
training and technical skill are
urgently needed in the postwar
Navy
Rear Admiral Thomas L.
Sprague, u. S. NJ, Chief of Ma
val Personnel, has stated that
men may reenliSt in such rating
groups as Fire Controlman, Ra-
dioman, Ship Filters, and Yeo-
men as second and third class
petty officers. There are also
billets for second and third class
aviation ratings such as Electri
Clans, Instrument Men, and Ma
chinists. A limited number of
vacancies exist for men to reen-
list as third class petty officers
in such as Aviation Metalsmith,
Parachute Rigger, and Aviation
Hydraulic Men rating groups.
EX-Naval personnel may quail
ify to reenlist under this new
plan if discharged subsequent to
August Is, 1945 and if they held
rates in the groups now open.
Former chief and first petty
officers are eligible to reenlist
as second class petty officers in
certain rating groups. Former Sc
cond and third class petty Off
GERS in certain rating groups are
eligible to reenlist as third class
petty officers in the same rating
groups.
This change in the rates open
to reenlistment does not affect
the Navy's current program of
reenliSting ex-Radio Technicians
in the same rates previously held
upon discharge, regardless of
date of discharge.
The Navy Department has sta
ted that personnel who have been
reenliSted as Seaman First Glass,
although previously discharged
in rates now open to reenEst-
ment, may be advanced to new
ratings in the appropriate rating
group provided under this new
directive, to insure the same prI-
vileges to all personnel.
This plan affects only those
rating groups in which large va
cancies exist and where men
may be renlisted as petty Off
GERS without decreasing the op-
portunities to men already in the
service.

you're telling me?" he de-
manded. "That was fine way to
tell girl you love her. I don't
want you working in an Office"
he mimicked.
you're in love with her too,
aren't you, Bates?"
The question came unexpected
ly and John did not answer inn
medlately. He lit a cigarette, TAX
ing his own good time about it,
took several puffs.
Heck, yes" he exclaimed, and
ground out the cigarette with un-
necessary vehennence. I've been
in love with Susie ever since
laid eyes on her, though I can't
see that it's any of your affair"
well, you needn't get sore
about it," Steve muttered. II fig
ured you were in love with her.
l decided she was your girl, so
I let her alone. After all, I'm not
that kind of louSe."
John managed a feeble grin,
remembering that he had once
called Steve that very thing. "I'm
not sore. I'm showing off, aren't
l? She's all yours, brother"
It was Steve's turn to grin
feebly now. 81 have an idea Susan
will have something to say about
that"
WELL" said John, "you don't
have to worry. Even if Susan
loved me-which she doesn't-we
wouldn't be good for each other.
We're too hot-headed, both of us.
We'd be at each others throats
all the time"
Steve got up and they began
walking toward the house.
Besides" John went on, with
characteristic honesty, I'D never
be satisfied to stay put. I'd al
ways be. wanting to go places and
do things. I'd be dragging poor
Susie around from place to place,
all over the world. It's the gypsy
in me. l guess. But that's no life
for woman"
Steve was thoughtful for a mo-
ment. 81 guess you're right,
Bates" he agreed. "But still feel
like a dirty so-and-so for butting
in"
Johns grin was genuine this
time. Think nothing of it. Sup
pose we skip all this Alphonse-
CASTOR business. If you don't get
move on, big boy, you're going
to lose that little hell-cat yet.
You've no idea how stubborn she
can be when she gets really mad.
Unconsciously Steve Cells in
creased his pace.

finger at John-''persuaded me to
tear it up. I hate you, Steve
Gellis!"
"Susie, wait a minute" said
Steve. What was trying to say
was"
QUT Susan was not listening.
- She was running across the
terrace, toward the house, as fast
as her supple young legs would
carry her.
$50 Steve's in love with me, is
he?" she muttered. "Why, he
doesn't even want me to work for
him! John was only making a
fool of me-"
She frowned suddenly as the
thought struck her that she was
being a little unfair to John. He
hadn't made a fool of her-not
really.
II took care of that little detail
myself" she acknowledged un-
happily as she opened the door
and went into the house.
With considerable deliberation,
John Bates folded his camera
equipment and put the various
accessories into the case designed
for that purpose. Then he went
over and sat down on the grass
near Steve.
"Cute little vixen-Susie. I've
always told her that temper of
hers would be the ruination of
her. She's spitfire, if ever there
was one"
On the surface, it was derog-
atory statement, but there was
something about the way John
said it that removed every atom
of criticism. It was almost as if
he'd said, "She's perfect-to my
way of thinking"
Only the words, however, regis
tered with Steve, and he froWned.
II don't think, so. I wouldn't give
a hoot for a girl without spirit.
Susan had a perfect right to be
upset over the idea that all of her
efforts have been wasted. She's
worked very hard, and she's done
a swell job. If she fiared up
well, it was all my fault. !

Il think it's terrible" said
Susan.
Steve grinned little sheep
ishly. well, after all, it's a pulp
magazine. We can't get too fancy
all of sudden. 1t was one of
those letters you brought out
from town, Bates, that got me
thinking. My magazines falling
off.
This love stuff we've been
printing is passe. Cooking, home
making, interior decoration seem
to be the popular things. The way
to a mans heart is still through
his stomach. l suppose" he added,
laughing.
Susan sat up straight. "Oh. Is
that so? And l suppose you're
eliminating my column, along
with the rest of the-er-roman-
tic piffle. After I've written my
heart out, trying to help people
find happiness.
Steve looked panied, but he was
determined to hold his ground.
Exactly" he said. "I'm eliminat-
ing all the romantic features and
devoting the whole magazine to
homemaking. That's the trend
now, and l intend to go along
with it."
you can cook, can't you, Su-
sie?" John Bates made one more
valiant attempt to right matters.
"You can tell 'em all about how
to fry eggs, boil turnips-and stuff
and stuff. Heck, I'll bet you're a
grand little cook"
1t did no good at all. In fact,
it seemed to infuriate Susan all
the more. "No.sI can't cook. And
! wouldn't admit it if I could"
"PledSe, Susan" Steve begged,
reaching out for her hand. Il
don't want you working in an
office. 1--we got to talk to you,

She moved away from him.
