Which shows neither of us doubted that it
was car accident We had one every now

There was no sign of Joe Smith that
morning, so fed Paul and took him to the
train. There was a small crowd on the road
beside an overturned car about hundred
yards from Nesbit's cottage, and Joe's taxi
was there, among other cars. But it was
almost train time. We could not stop, and
when went back the place was practically
deserted. Only the sheriff, deputy and
State Trooper were there, as well as pho
pictures of the car.
Carrie was taking up Ewes breakfast when
l got back to the house. She was fussing
about one of the pantry windows having
broken lock, but l paid no attention, for
Frank Nesbit was coming up the porch steps.

downstairs, looking fresh and beautifully

He listened, however, when told him about

And you don't know any reason for it?'
My sister Emily says Eve had bad chest.

pregnant, or anything like that?"

Ga||inger Finds New
Technique in Treating
1B With Streptomycin

Gallinger Hospital doctors are
learning to eliminate certain
harmful side effects of strepto-
mycin, one of the most valuable
drugs in the treatment of tuber-
culosis.
Problems arising from the use
OF the drug were outlined yester-
day by DR.. Monroe j. Romansky
associate professor of medicine at
the George Washington Univer-
sity Medical School, during the
semiannual all-day Metropolitan
Washington tuberculosis Confer
ence.
DR.. Romansky, who has used the
drug extensively at Gallinger Hos
pital in collaboration with Dr.. Sol
Katz, tuberculosis chief there, said
1t presents two basic problems,
One is the harmful side effects.
The other is resistance to the
drug which TB bacteria develop.
Small Doses Used.
After long periods of treatment,
DR.. Romansky reported, large
doses of streptomycin have been
found to cause loss of the sense
OF balance. Under the same con-
ditionS, dihydrostreptomycin, an
other valuable form of the drug,
causes actual loss of hearing.
Gallinger experiments, however,
he said, indicate these effects can
be eliminated by using smaller
doses OF the drugs, which still
retain their therapeutic value.
DR.. Romansky said the greatest
hope for overcoming resistance
the 1B germs develop seems to
be by using streptomycin in con-
junction with another anti-TB
drug. para-aminosalisylic acid
PAS). Resistance usually de-
velops to streptomycin, used alone.
IN from 40 to so days, he said.
Used in combination, however,
all but one of a group of patients
under continuous treatment has
gone from eight to IA months
without the resistance develop
ment, he said.
Rest Treatment Continued.
DIR. Romansky emphasized that
the drugs remain only valuable
adjuncts" to bed rest and other
long-recognized methods of tuber-
culosis treatment.
District Health Officer Daniel
L. Seckinger praised activities of
tuberculosis units here. Describ-
ing needs, however, he said Glenn
Dale Sanitarium should have at
least 400 more beds for hospital
care of the diseases victims.
The Importance of rehabilita-
ton programs for tuberculosis
patients was discussed by staff
members from the Richmond Vet
erans' Hospital. The discussion
was headed by DR.. John Barn.

By Alice Eversmon

Louise Lamb. q singer of dis
tinct charm and handsome stage
presence, was introduced locally
last night in a recital in the Arts
Club. Having concertized consid-
erably since winning a Bachelor
of Arts degree from Cedar Crest
College, Allentown, Pa, where she
began her vocal study, she has the
requisite ease and poise of manner
to present her numbers as
smoothly as if singing in a salon.
No physical effort or facial con-
tortions detracted from her art
istry which is Unborn and of prom
ising quality.
The silken timpre of her voice
is exceptionally beautiful and ex-
pressive. The pleasure had in the
mere sound of it would seem suf-
ficient in this day of Indifferent
vocalism but she knows how to
handle it also. While not of great
volume, it's purity and sweetness
accomplish much because of her
skill in infection and nuance. It
could stand the cultivation of
more roundness of tone in order
to bring out further it's innate
warmth, and greater attention to
the individual values of vowels
and consonants would project the
meaning of the songs to better
advantage.
She is to be commended for
never forcing her voice beyond
its natural power. The light quail
ity used in Mozart's "Alleluia"
and, in a different way, in the
Och vieni, non tardar" from Mo-
zart's lie Nozze di Figaro" at
the beginning of the program,
was most pleasing and she sang
these numbers with style. She
is mistress also of a lovely pianis-
simo which she employed effec-
lively in Brahms "Feldeinsam-
keit." Debussy's Romance" and
as a basis of her treatment of
Bach's "Sighing. Weeping" Ex-
cellent breath control allowed her
to fashion. and finish, phrases
with security and, for the most
part, her interpretations in this
respect were admirably devised.
Sometimes too rapid tempo, as

in Brahms "Wir wandelten, {"
caused her to pass over rather
indifferently the intimate effects
that should embellish this beau
tiful and atmospheric song.
While in the main, her diction
in German, French and English
is good, it needs more clarity and
emphasis on the special factors
that belong to the German and
French language. Her enuncia-
tion in the Air de Lila" from De-
bussy's "L'Enfant Prologue" was
more distinct perhaps because of
her appreciation of it's emotional
character. She sang it excellently
and accomplished the taxing cries
at the end without sacrificing the
beauty of her tone. She is a
singer with an understanding of
her art and the few drawbacks
that obstruct its full polish at
present can be easily remedied.
And the voice is one to be well
coined in the community.
Three folk songs, concluding
with Hageman's ME Company
Along" ended the program. Louise
Dyer provided adequate accom-
paniments at the piano although
a more resonant touch would have
given a better background to the
singer. Miss Lamb was warmly
applauded throughout and re-
ceived several floral tributes as
well.

100000 Workers
Seeking Jobs For
Over Six Months

Washington (LPA) = The num-
Der of unemployed fell between
March and April, the Census Bur-
eau reports, but there were still
about 100000 more men and women
seeking work than there were in
April 1949.
Even more important is the re-
port that ''no reduction was record
ed in the number of long-term un-
employed between March and April,
even though the total number out
of work declined. In April as in
March, there were / 100000 unem-
ployed persons who had been seek
Ing work for Is weeks or more"
A half-million of these people
have been job-hunting for six
months or more. "This group" the
Census Bureau found, (which had
grown almost continuously since
early 1949, included one of every
three unemployed persons in April.
In April 1949, in contrast, only one
of five unemployed persons had
been without work for 15 weeks or
more"
President Truman's Council of
Economic Advisers has warned him
and the Congress that this long
term unemployment requires quick
remedial action.
