New Treatment
For Bad Burns
Will Become Standard
Procedure In Event

By EDWARD H. SIMS, s

washington Correspondent


WASHINGTON, D. c. : The
: Army has developed treatment
Tor extreme burns which wal be-
come standard procedure for
numbers of victims in the event
Of atomic attack. More than that
1t Will be beneficial in isolated
cases OF severe burns, and for
use IN Korea, as soon as final
tests are completed. The ARMY
method can be described simply
by saying it's diet and food
supplement for the affected bo-
dy.
But the treatment isn't as SIM
pie as II sounds. 1t consists. first.
OF a pump and fuel line-which
runs through the victims nose on
It's way To the stomach. Through
that line is pumped a LIQUID 3iet
rich IN energy, possibly for TWEEN
ty-four hours q day, if necessary.
The liquid enters the victims
stomach so slowly, about a thir-
tieth of an ounce a minute, that
nausea Is avoided.
Why the necessity for all this?
The answer to this logical ques-
ton is that, in cases Of severe
burns, the victim suffers a toxic
depleted state, losing weight and
vital strength he viii need for
recovery. This is especially true
when burns become infected. The
great problem in such cases has
been to find a way of boosting
the victims intake of Galleries.
which requires a slow but steady
entry into the stomach. T h e
Army mas devised this plastic
tube and pump system as the
answer
An Army spokesman said at
the Pentagon this week that in
the worst cases. mechanical feed
ing, when possible, is continued
even when the fuel line system
is in operation, AS the patient
gains back his Gig hit and
strength, his appetite increases to
the point where he can cat full.

Once the proper healing of the
severe burns is underway, the
tube is removed from the nose,
Final testing of the new burn
treatment method is going on at

Authors Note: In 1928 Dick
Brinn, then residing at Engel-
hard, approached my father.
Donald Watson, and asked him
to write a true account of his ex-
perience in the Little Dismal in
the year of the worst blizzard
the old folks hereabOuts remem-
Der, 1879. MIR. Brinn said he
hated to have his children and
grandchildren believe some of
the greatly exaggerated tales
that were being told about the
time he was lost. Some of the
folks in the neighbOrhOOd were
trying to make Paul Bunyan
of him. He did not mind them
telling the truth.
Mr.. Brinn told his experience
and my father wrote it in Mr..
Brinn's own words, first person.
It made a very lengthy article
that way and to save space l
felt it necessary to use third
person, using only essential
paragraphs in first person.
Here for your perusal is a
still long narrative, but it is as
short as I can make it, so that
it will sound right to me.

A LITTLE HISTORY
OF DICK BRlNN
By JOHN 1. WATSON

One of the most legendary fig
ures in the entire Pamlico county
during the past century was Rich
ard Brinn, dead these ten years
or more, born and reared in the
once f1ourishing neighborhood of
'Poppin.
Known to everyone as Dick and
easily recognized from considera-
BILE distance by his big boned,
giant proportioned frame and
tousled hair, he was welcomed in
to any congregation of tellers of
tall tales for he had been around.
He was modest and truthful, but
his experiences had been varied
and numerous enough so that he
could relate true experiences
which were vastly more interest
ing than the tall and often pure
f elton tales of the others. And
the case was usually that Dick
was a topic for conversation in
stead of a participant, for he was
restless and preferred the wide
expanses of the Little Dismal to
the STIFFNESS Of the corner in the
store where the big stove was. For
it was in that corner that men
gathered during his lifetime to
tell even then of his adventures,
and to punctuate their variations
with tobacco spittal expectorated
at the stove door, but often fall
ing short to stain the floor, or
hitting wide to sizzle on the hot
iron.
Johnny Neal, a nephew of
Dick Brinn's, Travelled deep in
to the Little Dismal recently in
search of timber. He went fur
Their into the swamp than he
had ever been before and
thought that he was in Sec
ton where no white man had
been before when, suddenly, his
mind was changed. For he stood
face to face with the name
'Dick Brinn' cut deep into a
holly tree. Mr.. Neal estimated
that Dick had carved his name
there more than forty years
ago.
And then there was the time
when Dick and several others
were lost. They had been lost for
several days and, because they
were not near their destination
and knew the food would eventu-
ally give out, they wisely rationed
each man the same amount per
meal. But Dick was exceedingly
large while the others were unus-
ually small. Their ration was suf-
ficient, but Dicks left him weak.
He Jagged behind and several
times urged the others to leave
him and save themselves. They
refused, of course, until he had
repeated his noble offer several
times. At length Frank Gibbs, of

Homecoming
On the seventh day of his strug-
gle against the toughest weather
most people can remember in the
Little Dismal, one of the most
hazardous of all swamps, Dick ar
rived at his home in 'Poppin. He
was in a terrible condition. He
was suffering from frostbite,
thirst, starvation, over-exertion,
and anxiety. He collapsed, and for
two weeks no one knew whether
he would overcome the sickness
or not. His heels had been frozen

From there Dick travelled to the
head of Indian Creek where HI
spent the night. The next day he
headed for Broad Greek, and spent
that night night half way between
Broad and Otter creeks. He found
a few simon berries that gave hin
strength, but no water. He haG
had no water on the trip, but haC
licked the ice until his tongue was
raw.
The next day he got lost.
Thought he was coming out at
Bay Ditch, but found instead it
was Otter Creek. He had to
head that and got lost again j"
a briar patch. When night ar
rived he was naked. His arms
and legs were covered with
blood and his hands, neck and
face were nearly slashed to pie
ces. He began to lose hope a
gain, but just as night was set
Ting he found a place where
several trees had fallen tOgeth-
er and which he took to be a
bears den. There was a hole in
the side just large enough for
him to crawl through and that
is where he passed the night.
But he expected to meet the
proprietor of that inn at any
minute, although he was too
weary to worry about that.

took them for gypsy shoplifters.

authorities of New Rochelle had
asked the United States mission
to the U. N. to transmit their
sincere regrets for the humiliation

Prof. Bokhari protested last

government is said to have cap
tured documents showing that
the guerrillaS will resume their
operations in Northern Greece

Moscow evidently is under the
impression that resumption of
the civil war in Greece would
embarrass the United States,

good deal of truth in this. since

Lowell Meilett:

Trouble seems to be that we
don't have any consumers Con-
gressmen. We have cotton Con-
gresSmen. cattle congressman
and so on. representatives of
all the producing groups. but
none representative of the peo-
pie who wear. eat or otherwise
absorb the national production.
Helen Gahagan Douglas at
tempted it for a time and dra-
matized the role by taking her
market basket to the floor of the
House. But even she gave spe-
cial representation to one group
of producers-what We call
Labor.
The reason, of course. that we
have no consumers Congress
men is that virtually nobody
considers himself merely a con-
sumner; that virtually everybody
is more concerned with what he
is taking in than with what he
is paying out. Which. in normal
times, is a healthy thing, the
thing that gives us our dynamic.
progressive economy. Our-dog-
eat-dog competitive system does
keep us hustling, at least, and
that's probably good for us.
However, these happen to be
abnormal times. To all intents
and purposes we are at war and
war calls for regimenting our
lives to some extent. That we
don't like. It's all right, we feel
to control the lives of the boys
selected to do the fighting and
dying, but the rest of us should
be left alone. And we are hav-
