Ghost Town Restoration
Paying Good Dividends

RALEIGH, N. C.-Fontana viii
lage in the Great Smoky mountains
of North Carolina is one ghost town
that refused to remain an unin-
habited country crumbling to dust.
Instead, its homes and business
buildings have been reconverted
into resort properties until the en-
tire village is one huge hotel.
Deep in the heart of the Smokes,
well off the beaten path, Fontana
village lies at the end of a nine
mile scenic highway which extends
from federal highway 129 along the
shore line of the Little Tennessee
river. There is no beyond"
In a setting of so green acres at
1900 feet elevation, trimmed by
mountains that rise another 1,50O
feet, are 300 houses and cottages
along wide, shaded streets that
ramble up hill and down.
Fontana village was built by IVA
for the use of its employees while
two mile distant Fontana dam
(TVA's largest) was under con-
struction. When the dam was COM
pleted, the employees departed and
the village became a ghost town.
A private organization in Wash
ington, D. c., saw the possibilities
which Fontana village offered, and
so it came to life again "a-courtin'
of the tourist trade"
And the idea took, with the result
that three-quarters of a million peo-
pie representing every state in the
nation and 35 foreign countries Wis
tied the village last year.

Goose Skins
With Down On
Available Soon

ST. LOUIS, MO.-Goose skins,
eve an important commercial
item in the past, may soon prove
to be of great value to the poultry
farmers of the nation.
Goose skin production has been
hampered by two things: Not
enough geese and lack of a prac-
teal way to tan or preserve the
delicate skin. Exhibitors at the in
ternational baby chick association
convention showed how these two
obstacles now may be overcome.
First an incubator company of
Gettysburg, Ohio, displayed an in
cubator to hatch geese eggs. Ray
Petersime, vice-president Of the
company, explained that before this
the Matching has been up to the
parent geese. Regular incubators
didn't work with geese eggs, he
said.
Tanning Technique
Then a goose farm of Zarephath,
NJ, demonstrated a tanning proc
ess for the goose skin. To skin a
goose, you first pull the feathers off
carefully, leaving the thick fuzzy
down in place. Next you separate
the skin, with down attached, from
the body of the goose. Then you tan
it by the patented process.
Tanned and with the down still
attached, goose skins a be used
for powder puffs, baby booties, trim
on women's hats and negligees,
baby caps and the like. Poultrymen
at the convention said there was
a big future for goose skins. They
said the down holds onto powder,
for example, just the way it should
to make an ideal puff.
The Petersime incubator has a
device which turns the geese eggs.
The temperature and humidity are
controlled to make things ideal for
the unmatched geese. And, Peter
SINE said, the incubator has "a
lllAu lIllIlS dir llOVSillSllI. !
Future Bright
Other p%oultrymen at the conven-
ton said the future is bright in the
goose business. Cotton farmers are
discovering, for example, that
geese will eat the grass and weeds
in their fields but not the cotton.
The down on their skins, they
said, can be colored pink, blue or
whatever the buyer wants. A goose
skin is about the size of an open
telephone book and, once tanned, is
,airly durable.
George Scheuffle, proprietor of
he goose farm, also exhibited a
method of canning goose meat.
Other goose experts among the
200 poultrymen here for the con
7ention said that incubator Matched,
produced geese can be kept
until they are too old to lay eggs
n quantity. Then they can be
Tiled, they said, and every part
an be used. The feathers a stuff
the skins can be tanned and
he meat can be cooked or canned.

Newest Druq
Fights Fever

LOUISVILLE, KY.-The army be.
lieves chloromycetin will make the
country much safer against ty-
phoid in wartime.
This was indicated by Col. Will
liam Spencer Stone, Washington,
chief of army medical research,
who came here to discuss COM
municable-disease control in a
lecture sponsored by Alpha Omega
Alpha, medical fraternity of the
University of Louisville school of
medicine. Colonel Stone was grad
uated at the U. of L. medical school
in 1929.
Colonel Stone pointed out that
enteric diseases-those transmitted
by food or Water-are being given
special attention by army research
ers. The diseases have low Incl
dence now, he said, but if safe
guards such as water and milk
controls were lifted, the number
of cases would %skyrocket because
the population has developed little
immunity.
In a similar situation, a break
down of water sanitation caused
5000 cases Of typhoid in Berlin
after World War II.
Drug Fights Typhoid
Chloromycetin would play a big
role in CASE of a similar threat
to the health of the people in the
U. S. Should water protection fail,
the drug could hold the fort against
typhoid until proper publication
safeguards could be set up again.
Chloromycetin is rapidly being
developed to the point where it
can conquer these diseases in two
days: Typhoid, typhus, Rocky
Mountain spotted fever, undulant
fever, and others.
1t is an antibiotic which means
it prevents reproduction of germs
instead of killing them. 1t is the
purified extract of a fungus found
in a soil in Venezuela.
Scientists under Colonel Stones
medical research and development
board discovered potentialities Of
using the drug against typhoid and
some other diseases.
Ray Method Used
Experimenting in another direc-
ton, his researchers have de-
veloped an ultraviolet-ray method
of disinfecting blood plasma to pre-
vent jaundice being transmitted by
it. Heretofore, Colonel Stone said,
about 5 per cent receiving plasma
ran the risk of getting jaundice,
too. The army elaborated in this
study with the University of Penn
.sylvania.
Colonel Stone said army scien-
keep foremost in mind the
status of diseases as related to the
entire population SO they a esti-
mate what would happen in case
Of an adverse situation"
AS %contrasted to enteric dis
eases which are fairly well con-
now, respiratory diseases
are as prevalent today as ever.
are better treatments,
Colonel Stone said, but the city
rural populations mingle more and
cause greater spread of infections.
Respiratory diseases also occur at
a relatively younger age now, he

begin TO- debate what should be done In
the control OF prices, wages and rent, the
elimination of profiteering, the rationing
OF scarce necessities, priorities, the civilian
defense Of our cities and other measures
we know would have to be taken"
This view is hardly debatable. AS long
as the Soviet East and the free West
remain grimly at odds, foresight and pre-
paredness will be essential to survival in
the atomic age. Given them in sufficient
degree. we can hope to deter aggression
and win time for craftsmanship to estab-

we can have only the kind of weakness

Call OFF This 'Wor'

The District Medical Society has pro-
posed a sensible formula for ending the
absurd war" between the District and
Virginia over the question OF medical reel
procity The society suggests that the
District suspend it's punitive order can
ceiling "borderline reciprocity certificates
under which Virginia doctors have been
practicjng in Washington. The Suspen-
sion would hold good at least until the
State Legislature has had an opportunity
to consider the reciprocity dispute when
1t meets next January.
There is good reason to believe that
Virginia will amend its outmoded law
which, if strictly enforced, would prevent
Washington physicians from practicing In
Arlington, Alexandria or Fairfax except
upon payment of fifty-dollar fee. This
requirement is in sharp contrast to the
"borderline reciprocity" arrangement
under which Virginia doctors have been
permitted to attend patients in Washing
ton hospitals and clinics on payment OF
one-dollar fee, good for continuous prac-
tice of that kind. State Senator Fenwick
of Arlington has promised to seek amend
ment of the law as soon as the General
Assembly meets He has the active sup
port of the Arlington and Alexandria
Medical Societies in this move.
Granting the good faith of the Virginians
in trying to secure full reciprocity with the
District, no useful purpose will be served
by continuing the nuisance campaign
against the doctors across the river. The
order canceling the traditional reciprocity
privileges was issued by former Health
Off1cer Rutland for the announced pur-
pose of needing Virginia into taking
remedial action. Now that this action is
in prospect, no further prodding by the
District should be necessary. The chief
sufferers from the Districts edict are not
the Virginia doctors but their patients who
want to use the Districts varied hospital
facilities. To impose any unnecessary
interstate restrictions on exchange of
medical services is to take a backward
step in the field of public health.
Evening star., 1949-10-06
cripps vs.. Cripps

Seldom has there appeared more rapid
change in attitude and emphasis on the
part of a high public official than Is
revealed by comparison of two recent
pronouncements by Sir Stafford Cripps,
British Chancellor of the Exchequer,
On September 18, Sir Stafford went on
the air to explain to the British people
the devaluation of the pound sterling,
which had just been announced. In this
address the Chancellor was highly reaSsur-
ing. He told the British people that
devaluation won't alter what is known
as the internal value of the pound. Your
savings, your wages and salaries, will buy
you just as much as they did before, OF
all things that we produce ourselves, or
that we buy from other countries who
make a similar change in their dollar
rate of exchange. All such prices should
remain unaffected" Sir Stafford went on
to admit that imports paid for in dollars
would cost more, but he restricted the
effects to bread and few other commodi-
ties which should increase the cost OF
living by only about one point, at least for
the next few months. Any notable price
increase aside from bread would be prof
iteering," which would not be tolerated.
Therefore, he concluded, "the change gives
no reason for any increase In personal
incomes, whether from wages, salaries,
profits or any other source"
It is interesting to compare those opti-
mistic statements with the address Sir
Stafford delivered Tuesday at the Lord
Mayors dinner for the bankers and mer-
chants of the City Of London. Only is
days had elapsed since his pronouncement
on devaluation Yet Sir Stafford bluntly
told his distinguished audience that in
fiation lies ahead for Britain and that "the
little fellow" will bear the brunt OF It..
"The cost of living will rise" as the result
of the pounds devaluation, he warned,
and he made it clear that the average
Briton will eat less, buy less, and get no
raise in pay. The heavy burden OF de-
valuation will fall almost entirely upon
the wage-earner, and will be felt most
heavily by those with the lowest incomes"
It is bit difficult to reconcile the lines
of reasoning in those two pronouncements,
made virtually within fortnight OF each
other Britain's exchange situation has
not worsened critically in the interim. On
the contrary, Sir Stafford assured his
financial audience that, since devaluation,
the drain on gold and dollar reserves had
been notably checked. Yet he predicts
deepened "austerity" for the British peo-
|tple, and especially for those in the lower
income brackets Sir Stafford and the
Labor Party leaders generally may have

A Sound Investment

Although the industrial aspect OF the
Sesquicentennial Freedom Fair" has not
been emphasized, this Is an angle which
Congress should not overlook in deciding
the fate of the observance. The interest
which American industry is showing in
the proposed exposition is important, for
the ability of the fair to pay its own way
hinges largely on the support which in
dustrial firms give to the program.
Few persons outside the small circle OF
Sesquicentennial planners realize the size
of the investment which business interests
plan to make, provided Congress grants
the "loan" needed to underwrite the cele
bration. Tentative plans call for nearly
thirty million dollars to be expended in
labor and material for buildings and
from exhibitors and much of it will go to
workers and firms in the various States
from which the exhibits come. Sesqui
officials estimate that from twelve to
fifteen million dollars will be paid out In
wages to construction workers, cabinet
makers, decorators and other artisans
Thus the Freedom Fair while commem-
Grating a historic event, is expected to
stimulate employment and trade in many
parts of the Nation.
1t is reported that some of the largest
industrial concerns In the country are
ready to participate in the trade exposi-
ton, designed to show the economic prog
ress of America under the free enterprise
system. With industry facing a buyers
market the exposition should have no
difficulty in selling all available space in
the exhibition halls. The fees from this
exposition, plus those from admissions and
other sources, will, it is believed, write off
the three-million- dollar fund which Con-
gress has been asked to appropriate. 1t
should be evident. therefore, that the
Sesquicentennial Is sound business
proposition, In addition to being fitting
celebration of the Capitals 150th birthday
anniversary
