Family Life
Course for
Mothers Set

Understanding our Families" is
the theme of a series of talks and
discussions to be conducted for
mothers at the Rock Creek Recrea-
ton Center at Meadowbrook, Beach
Drive and East Leland Street,
Chevy Chase, on eight consecutive
Tuesday mornings from $3.50 to
11:30 am, beginning February 10.
Sponsor of the series is Service
to Groups the newly established
coordinating service for Montgom-
cry County organizations interested
in community and family life educa-
ton. Organizations presently
participating are: Board of Educa-
ton staff, Health Department,
Mental Hygiene Society, Tubercu-
losis Association, Youth Commits
sion.
The course will be conducted by
Gladys Gardner Jenkins of Bethes-
da, author, lecturer and teacher in
the field of family relations. Mrs.
jenkins was for many years a staff
member of the Chicago Association
for Family Living. She is the
author of many articles bearing on
this subject and co-author of sever
al books, including "These re Your
Children" book on the elementary
school child for teachers and par
ents; "Into Your Teens" you're
Growing Up" and 100 pamphlets on
child development for Childcraft.
Service to Groups announces that
enrolment in Mrs. jenkins course,
which is the first of several it plans
to offer, will be limited and that
telephone reservations should be
made through the tuberculosis AS
ISOLATION office at Lockwood 4-6O5O.
There will be $1.0O registration
fee to defray expenses.

period of 1 to 5 weeks following
exposure.
The required amount of blood tt
make one dose of gamma globulin
is slightly more than one pint of
whole blood.
Polio is a virus disease; the vir.
US circulates through the blood
stream before it attacks the ner-
vous system. If this virus can be
attacked by the antibodies in gam.
ma globulin before it strikes the
nerve centers, paralysis may be
prevent or minimized. When the
nerve center is destroyed, the
muscle that it serve is paralized.
The National Foundation for
Infantile Paralysis estimates that
at least $50 counties in the nation
may be expected to suffer a polio
epidemic each year. This does not
mean that any specific communi-
ties may expect epidemics, but that
at least $50 of the more than 5000
counties in the United States
may expect to be hit by poliomyeli-
tbs in epidemic proportions.
1t is not possible to estimate the
total number of children to be ex-
posed throughout the country, but
past experience indicates that at
least two million children may be
exposed in epidemic areas alone in
1858.
No large quantities of gamma
globulin are now available and no
one knows at present how much
can be produced between now and
summer. Professors have been
asked to work at full capacity seven
days per week, twenty-four hours
per day, to produce all the gamma
globulin possible between now and
summer and to prepare for 1854.
Additional blood required will be
collected. However, based on pre-
sent production estimates, it would
be impossible for the processing
laboratories to produce the total
quantity of gamma globulin needed
in the epidemic areas for the 1868
polio season.
1t will be necessary for the Red
Cross and cooperating blood banks
to collect over million pints of
blood during 1858. This estimate
equals the peak blood collection of
any year during World War II.
This is not only responsibility of
the Red Cross but of all healthy
citizens, to give blood to help mini
mize the effects of polio.

A Little Old Railroad
That Lost Its Engine

The Interstate Commerce Com
mission has been put deep in a
quandary by a little New Hamp-
shire Railroad that has lost its
locomotive and can't tell where to
find one.
The railroad-the 25-mile Sun
cook Valley-went out of business
in mid-December and it is now up to
the ICC to decide whether it must
resume operations.
But the commission-which has
taken as long as 466 days to decide
on urgent railroad matters-might
as well let this go on forever.
If it says no, the railroad doesn't
have to resume-it won't.
If it says yes, it must-it can't.
The tiny line had run between
Concord and Pittsfeld for IS years
the last 10 in the red-when it
petitioned the ICC and the State
Public Utilities Commission for
permission to suspend operations
and take up the tracks for scrap.
But a number of manufacturing
plants objected.
On December 16, General Man
ager Edmond j. Stapleton reported
$9.O7 in the treasury. At the same
time, the roads 20 employees were
owed two weeks pay and $4,000
installment on its only locomotive
was overdue.

Statistics on
Chest X-Rays
Are Released

DR.. K. Welte, Chief of the Di-
vision of tuberculosis Control
Montgomery County Health De-
partment, released today the re-
suits of the first ID months of the
regular monthly x-ray survey in
Montgomery County.
This joint effort to control tuber-
culosis, by the Montgomery County
TB Association, The County Health
Department, and the County Medi-
cal Society, saw 24,494 x-ray pic
lures taken in mobile x-ray units
for the period October 1851 to No
vember 1851.
Of the total number of pictures
taken, 221 or approximately 10
were found to indicate tuberculosis.
All of these findings were unknown
to both the person x-rayed and their
private physicians. Other suspect
ed pathology numbering 1853 also
were found as a result of the chest
x-ray. Heart conditions, pleurisy,
cancer, lung abcess and other path
ology fell into this group.
Figures presented thus far do
not include the number of x-rays
taken during the annual school sur
vey which number approximately
10000, nor those taken during
special community surveys, APP
proximately 1000, between October
1851 and November 1852.
DR.. H. Mitchell, County School
Health Officer, said in a recent in
terview, Approximately 1000 X
ray pictures have been taken dur
ing the first weeks of this years

Help the Fight!
Blood Donors Asked
To Aid Red Cross i'm
Drive Against Polio

The residents of Montgomery
County will nave a chance to roll
up their sleeves and give blood to
prevent paralysis in polio. The
, Montgomery Red Cross Blood Com
mittee has accepted this added re-
sponsibility in cooperation with the
National Red Cross.
To meet this new responsibility,
as well as anticipated needs for
whole blood or civilian hospitals, for
the Korean wounded and for the
building of safe plasma reserve for
national defense purposes-both
military and civilian-presents one
of the most difficult tasks ever I'M
dertaken by the Red Cross except
in time of actual warfare.
Since the amount of globulin
needed will far exceed the expected
supply, the Office of Defense Mobi-
lization has requested the National
Research Council to consult with
appropriate professional, industri-
al, and governmental groups to
determine the most feasible and
equitable method of ALLEGATION and
distribution in time for the next
polio season.
What is gamma globulin, is a
question being asked of the Red
Cross. 1t is that part of human
blood that contains antibodies built
up in the blood stream as the result
OF the human body's fighting di-
sease. These antibodies remain in
the blood stream. They can be
separated from the whole blood and
concentrated for injection into patti
ents suffering variety of diseases.
Up to the present time the major
use of gamma globulin has been in
treatment of measles and infectious
hepatitis Commonly called contagi-
Gus jaundice).
NFor more than 20 years plasma
or serum from persons who have
recovered from polio has been given
to patients in an attempt to prevent
the disease. This has not often been
successful. Two things changed
the picture: (D the preparation of
gamma globulin made it possible
to concentrate the antibodies from
the blood of many people, thus
providing some protection against
the different strains of the disease
in a small volume of material, and
(2) about 2 years ago it was de-
monstrated that before the polio
virus enters the nerve tissue it
passes through the blood stream.
If antibodies are administered to
an individual during this period,
they many minimize or prevent
the destruction of nerve tissue by
the polio virus.
Experiments conducted over the
past 2 years in Provo (Utah)
Houston (Texas) and Sioux City
(lowa), under the auspices of the
National Foundation for Infantile
Paralysis and as part of its total
research program, have demon
strated the effectiveness of the
gamma globulin treatment in the
prevention of the paralysis that
often accompanies polio. The tests
involved some $4,000 children above
the age of 1 year.
All the globulin lover $4,000
doses) was provided by the Red
Cross without charge.
In the experiments during the
past 2 years, the incidence of paral-
ysis in children receiving the gam
ma globulin was markedly reduced
but not completely eliminated.
The globulin seems to be effective
in prevention of paralysis for

She gave it to church she's not

uses her husbands fuel oil.)
From where I sit, that's real
generosity. But then, Mrs. Thayer
never did believe in dividing

they go to, whether they like nv
