Early Treatment Urged
To Avert Deafness

PHILADELPHIA, W.H-The ma
jority Of adults afflicted with i'm
paired hearing could have been
saved from that handicap if the
cause of it had been treated in
childhood, DR.. A. Spencer Kauf-
man of Jefferson Hospital reports.
DR.. Kaufman told meeting OF
the Philadelphia County Medical
Society that nearly 100000 chill
dren in the United States have
impaired hearing and many others
have conditions which may lead to
hearing difficulties later in life.
Most ear disorders are caused by
nose and throat ailments, such as
enlarged tonsils and adenoids he
said. Delay in the removal of en-
larged or defective tonsils and
adenoids may cause irreparable
damage to the hearing organs. he
said.
