Artificial Kidney Saves Man
Poisoned by 700 Aspiriins

Another medical triumph was
credited to the artificial kidney
at Georgetown University Medi-
cal Center yesterday. In the case
of q man who was dying Of
aspirin poisoning.
The patient. a middle-aged
District resident, had swallowed
TOO aspirin tablets over a two
week period. Doctors believed
he had taken about 500 of the
tablets in the few days or even
hours before he was taken to the
hospital last week.
The man was in a coma when
he was brought to Georgetown
Hospital, where the cause was
discovered.
His was the first severe case of
aspirin poisoning in an adult seen
at Georgetown since 1851. when
physicians there, in an article
published in the Journal Of the
American Medical Association.
first suggested use Of the arti-
fetal kidney for the condition.
The proposal was made on
the basis of research on a pa
tient who died of aspirin poison
ing with a level of SIS milligrams
of salicylate per 100 millilitres
of blood. Last weeks patient
had a blood level of 100 MILL
grams. believed to be one Of the
highest ever recorded.

convict south of Woodbridge yes
terday, flushed two ALLEGED
moonshiners at one still and ran
across two other stills in the

The search was still in pro-
gress last night by the police
headquarters near Alexandria

Beavers. both of Cherry Hill. The
police report said hey were
caught redhanded by Trooper

The other two stills were found
in a wooded area near the place
where the pair was arrested. No
one else was arrested, however.

from a convict road camp We'd
nesday while serving a I0-year
sentence for housebreaking. Dent
was observed by a State TROOPER

reported stolen Thursday from
Danville. Va.
The trooper chased the car
which turned of Route l rorth

enue Sc.
The child's mother, Gloria
Lloyd, 20, told police she left
her son, Gregory. in the bathtub

Traffic Body 10 Urge
Jail for vioIators

A subcommittee of the third
annual Commissioners and Gov
errors Conference on Metro
pohtan Washington Traffic Prob
lens will urge jail sentences for
certain traffic violations.
The committee. which will re-
port to the conference Septem-
Der 20. according to District
Traffic Director George E.
Keneipp. will recommend that
Jail terms be imposed for operat-
ing a vehicle after drivers per-
mits are suspended or revoked.
At the same time. Mr.. Keneipp
announced, another committee
will recommend that vision
standards for. driver licensing be
frightened to require visual acuity
of at least 20-40 in one eye and
side vision Of at least 100 de-
grees in one eye.
At present the District re-
quires 20-40 vision, but Virginia
and Maryland require only 1910
vision in both eyes or 20-40 vi
sion If one eye is blind.
MIR. Keneipp added that the
testing of side vision has just
been adopted by the District. It
is important, he urged, because
"a few drivers are limited to
such n narrow visual field that
they have what is known as
tunnel or barrel vision. They
can see only straight ahead and
are at a great disadvantage when
cars are overtaking them or
when they are driving through
street intersections"

Traffic Ticket Payments
Show Increase Of S1,7o6

The District raked in $1,296
more in traffic tickets payments
to the newly formed Central
Violations Bureau during the
second week of its operation than
during the first week.
Figures released yesterday by
Director Walter Bramhall
showed a total of $9,962 paid in
the seven-day period ending last
Friday as compared with 1866
during the first week the system
went into effect.
An increase in the number of
tickets paid by mail was noted.
During the first week. 1,476 tick
cts were paid by mail for q
total of 1913. During the Sec
ond week 1919 were paid by
mail for a total of $6,830.

Such large. amounts Of as
pirin were removed from the
patients blood stream by the
artificial kidney that he began
to come out of the coma while
still connected to the machine.
Doctors reported yesterday he
was alert, talking and in fair
condition.
Aspirin poisoning is almost
invariably fatal at such high
levels. 1t is rare in adults, but
not uncommon in children, in
whom much less of the drug is
required to produce toxic effects.
It is important in treating
severe cases Of aspirin poisoning
to get the poison out of the blood
stream as fast as possible before
it damages the brain.
Persons suffering from such
severe cases are in shock, and
there is not the normal blood
flow to the kidneys. But even
two good kidneys working at
best could not clear the blood
stream fast enough in some
cases to prevent brain damage.
The artificial kidney is con-
rsH A.
efficient than even two normal
human kidneys, authorities re-
port.
