Nurse CIings 10 Life
After Heart MASSAGE,
But Brain Is Damaged

A Gallinser Hospital nurse,
victim of q rare tragedy of the
operating room, was reported
barely alive" today by hospital
officials.
She suffered damage to vital
brain tissues Wednesday when
reaction to an aresthetic caused
her heart to stop beating. cutting
of oxygen from the brain.
DR.. Joseph r. Fazekas. chief
Of the hospital medical staff. said
the 23-year-old nurse was under
routine bronchoscopic examina-
ton Of her lungs. preparatory to
discharge from tuberculosis care.
Stopped for Z Minutes.
When the heart stopped. sur
geons cut into the patients chest
and massaged the heart to re-
store its beating. But for an esti-
mated several minutes. the heart
did not function. causing irrepar-
able damage to brain tissues.
Hospital officials explained that
in similar cases. damage to the
brain resulted in loss of virtually
all functions of the body. Brain
tissue begins to lose its power,
they said. within ga minutes after
oxygen is cut of through lack of
blood circulation.
Common Anesthetic.
Pontacaine. a standard anes-
thetic. was being used. Physicians
said there Is a chance of about
/ in 10000 that such a reaction
could occur when the anesthetic
is used.
Hospital officials said the nurse
became Iii with tuberculosis about
a year ago. but had recovered to
such an extent that she was being
given final tests preparatory to
discharge as tuberculosis case.

Men
Ready Drive on
Dope Pedd!ers
Boegs Bill Passage
Increases Penalties:
New Agents Added

A major push to drive the drug
peddlers out of business in the
United States is expected to get
under way soon. probably next
week.
Harry J. Anslinger, commits
sioner of narcotics for the Treas
ury Department, said the pressure
against the peddlers will increase
when the Boggs bill becomes a
law and the full complement of
narcotics agents is reached.
The Boggs bill. passed in rapid
fashion last Saturday after lying
around in committee for months,
assesses sitter penalties on drug
peddlers.
I'VE should see the downward
trend in the drug traffic begin
when the Boggs bill becomes eff
fective." Mr.. Anslinger said.
President Truman is expected to
sign the bill Tuesday.
Big Staff Increase.
Congress also has permitted in
crease in the Bureau of Mar
cotics staff from 1873 to 275. These
agents are being hired now, and
the full staff of 275 is expected
to be at work within a few weeks.
These men. along with the
help we get from State ard local
authorities" Mr.. Anslinger de-
clared. will give us what we need
to do the job we've been wanting
to do for years"
Effectiveness of sitter penal
ties was indicated in a compari-
son of the Boggs bill with similar
action in Louisiana. Maryland
and New Jersey.
I'm louisiana" Mr.. Anslinger
pointed out, they've been giving
the maximum penalty of 10 years
to second offenders. AS a result
they're moving their operation
over into Mississippi.
Maryland Law Cited.
"In Maryland, heavier sentences
imposed by the courts is pushing
the peddlers into the District and
nearby States. In New Jersey, a
similar practice is sending them
into New York and Pennsylvania
II don't know where they're
going to go when the national law
goes into effect, but personally
hope they all take a slow boat to
China"
The Boggs bill takes away dis
Icretion of judges in dealing with
second and subsequent offenders
and makes heavier sentences man
datory in these cases.
Such a law was one of the major
recommendations Of the Senate
Crime Investigating Committee
which delved into the national
aspects of the drug traffic and
found an alarming increase in the
use Of narcotics, particularly
among teen-agers.

On June Is, 1850, an Emergency Board
appointed by the President under the
terms of the Railway Labor Act-an Act
largely fathered by the unions themselves
made it's recommendations on certain
wage and working conditions C'rules' in
railroad language) which had been in dis
pute between employees and the railroads.
More Than 9O% of Employees Accept
Since then, terms equal to or better than
the Board recommendations have been
accepted by about l 100000 railroad en-
ployes-more than 9O% of the total of all
workers. They are represented by 20 of
the % standard railroad unions.
Less Than 1O% Refuse
But three unions-with about 130, 900
men, or less than 10% of the total-have
refused to accept, even after months of
negotiations. These three unions are the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers,
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen
and Enginemen, and the Order of Railway
Conductors. These are three of the So
called operating" unions. Already the
highest paid men in the industry, their
leaders demand still further advantages
over other workers.
In all, there are about 27O, 900 operating
employees. But not all of them, by any
means, are represented by BILE, BLF&E,
or ORC. AS matter of fact, less than
half-132, 900 to be exact-are in these
three unions. More than half-about
140,000-are in other unions, principally
the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen.
What makes the whole situation so hard
TO understand is that these 100000 OPP
Grating employees are working under wages
and rules which the leaders of the other
10000 say they cannot agree to.
What Do the Railroads Offer?
They offer these three unions the same
settlement which was contained in Mem
orandum of Agreement signed at the White
House on December 21, 1850, by four
brotherhoods and the railroads. Later
these brotherhoods sought to repudiate
this agreement. But on May 25, 1851, the
Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen signed
complete agreement carrying out the
