de Mole, 10,
Who Invented Tank in
II, Dies in Australia
BY the Assecictsd Press

SYDNEY. Australia, May g.
Lancelot de Mole, whose invention
of a military tank in 1912 was
pigeonholed by the British War
Office. died here May 6 after a
four-year illness. He was 70.
Mr.. De Mole received no none
tary reward for his invention.
Later the War once recognized
him as the inventor of the tank
and he was made a commander
of the British Empire in recogni-
ton of his invention.
Two Received $4,000.
Tanks were not used in World
War I until September Is. 1916.
Sir William Triton and Mai. W.
G. Wilson later received an award
Of f15.000 tthen $75.0o0) for their
tank invention. on which they did
not start experimenting until 1915.
Mr.de Mole's widow said today
that her husband sent his tank
plans to the British War Office in
1912, but heard nothing more
about them. At wars outbreak in
1914, he again wrote the War
ONCE and again did not get a
reply.
In 1917. Mrs. de Mole continued,
her husband made an 8-foot
model of his tank and took it with
him to England when he went
there as corporal with the Aus
tralian Army.
Sent to Fight in France.
He showed the model to the
War Office and was told he would
hear from them. But he was sent
into combat in France and the
war ended without his hearing
anything further about his inven-
ton.
Later he brought his model back
with him to Australia. 1t now is
in the country's war museum at
Canberra.
Finally recognizing his inven-
ton, the Royal Commission on
Awards to inventors later stated
that Mr.. de Mole was entitled to
the greatest credit for having
made and reduced in practical
shape as far back as 1912 a very
brilliant invention which antici-
|pated and in some respects sur
passed that actually put into use
in 1916"

How Hypnotism Can Ease Pain

|fered blurred vision and headaches
for no apparent cause. Hypnosis
cured him Of the eye and head
troubles and revealed the real
cause. This was worry about his
family. finances and possible
blindness.
Hypnotism cured the pain Of
q phantom leg. which is the sensa-
tion you still have OF the leg after
it is amputated.
Hypnotism used on one such
man revealed that he craved to be
dependent on some one. Psychi-
atric treatment was then used to
make him realize the emotion.
That cured him.
DR.. Rosen said hypnotism can
be used in three ways. One is to
suggest deep sleep, another to sug-
gest there Is no pain and the third
to suggest the pain will no longer
be disturbing. Each one works
or fails largely according to. the
effect of emotions.

DETROIT, May 5.-What hyp-
notism can do to ease pain was
reported to the American Psy-
chiatric Association today.
The studies were made at
Johns Hopkins University Medical
School. They were reported by
DR.. Harold Rosen Of Baltimore.
Hypnotism helps. because pains
are often partly due to emotions.
One case was q war veteran
who hurt his back in an auto ac-
cident. He could not walk and
couldn't work.
When hypnotized and told he
could walk, he did so without
difnculty.
The trance studies showed he
was fooling himself without
realizing 1t. He hated his job
and the deep-seated emotion kept
him from working by causing
pain in his back.

BODY BUILDER

What is meat? The obvious answer
is that it is food which is particularly APP
petizing to the great majority of people.
But meat, according to scientific dis
coveries which have been made largely in
the past Is years, is more than that. 1t is
a splendid builder of health and energy.
Proteins are now known to be the
building blocks of the body. They renew
the living cells in muscles, tissue and
blood. The most valuable protein foods
which are meat, poultry, milk, eggs and
fish-contain amino acids. There are %
different amino acids, of which ten are
absolutely essential to human health. All
ten of them are found in meat. Meat also
contains many other dietically valuable
elements including the newly discovered
vitamin BIZ that is found only in animal
products.
For centuries people have eaten vast
quantities of meat just because they liked
it, not knowing it's special virtues from the
health standpoint When Nature gave the
human race its appetite for meat, she
knew what she was doing! She made the
most valuable of foods the most palatable.
On the economic side, meat consti-
tutes a great industry, which provides
agriculture with its largest single source
of cash income It is growing industry, and
the experts forecast substantial increases
in meat production and consumption dur
ing the coming years. All in all, it is
major asset to the nation.
