The May employment showed rise
of II, 100 from the midwinter low of
157,8O0 in February, but it still $500
short of the record set last August.
Average gain from June to August III
the past eight years has been $500,
according to commission records.
Construction contractors furnished
the bulk of the new job openings i'll
May, rising from 9,70O in April to
1890 in May. Most of this gain was
recorded in the heavy construction
field-dams, power facilities, irriga-
ton works, highways and bridges, and
civic improvements.
LUMBER JOBS LAG
Other seasonal industries "made
good recovery of employment levels
except in lumber and logging, where
unfavorable market conditions COM
bined with adverse weather to limit
job openings. Lumber employment
was 300 below a year ago, though
900 above that of April
Expanding tourist travel is re-
flected in a 900 increase April to
May in retail and wholesale trade
employment, and 400 in service in
dustries. In transportation another
600 was added to the April payrolls,
though 400 below May of 1856

How to
STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
Recovery Room Care Saves Lives
By Or. PETER } sTEINcRoHN

/ patient just operated upon was
wheeled back TO his room IN
charge Of q nurse-often an In
experienced student nurse. She
would be instructed TO support
the angle Of his jaw so that
breathing would not be i'm
peded. II there was nausea or
vomiting she helped the patient
through that uncomfortable
phase Of his post-operative ex-
perience.
She took his pulse and OBJ
served his color" II after an
hour or so the patient seemed
to be resting normally. the
nurse would go about her other
duties and peek in once in
awhile to see that everything
was all right.
And usually 1t was. But
there we're enough exceptions
that medical men over the year
awakened to the need for closer
scrutiny Of the patient who had
just been submitted to major
surgery and deep anesthesia.
Preventible post-operative
death Is not excusable.
The modern recovery room
setup Is organized with the real
ization that the patient Is prob
ably in less danger while on the
operating table than during the
first hour or two after the op-
Grafton. II Is during this period
that there Is greater danger Of
hemorrhage. shock or obstruc-
ton to breathing.
In the patients own room or
ward. observation Is Of neces-
sity sporadic. The nurse can't
be in two places at once. She
may be out Of the room for 10
or Is minutes getting some
thing for the patient. During
that time he may choke on
some phlegm and cease breath
ing.
Such an accident rarely. II
ever. happens in the recovery
room. Every patient Is under
constant watch until his dis
charge to his own room. II q
doctor is quickly needed. he is
Immediately available because
the recovery room is adjacent
TO the operating rooms.
And all the tools" are there
for the asking: Blood trans
fusion; plasma: stimulants:
oxygen: Observation-Disclosures
laryngoscopes and broncho-
scopes; even q small chest-set
for going In" to massage q
heart that has stopped beating
We rarely think OF II as such
but I consider the modern re-
covery room as one Of the
greater advances Of surgery
during the past quarter CEN
tury.

PATRONAG GE: President
Woodrow Wilson. always the

taste for routine politics and
politicians. He especially dis
liked patronage. although he
accepted 1t as q necessary evil.
When elected Governor Of
New Jersey he refused to see
party workers seeking Job ap-
pointments. Instead he had
his secretary draw UP a list Of
names. from which he made his
slections. As q result Wilson
rarely met the people he ap-
pointed.
One day, as he and his Sec
retary were emerging from the
executive mansion. q man
rushed UP to him and began
shaking his hand vigorously.

Pittsburgh. Pa: Please let
me know why they are called
Harvard beets." Are they COLI
lege beets?-Eugene r. Aprea.
Answer: A half century or so
ago. when Harvard had some
Of the finest football teams in
the country. Harvard crimson
was q color known throughout
the land. About that time q
chef. whose name unfortunate
ly has been lost to history. con-
fected a dish OF cooked beets

sugar and cornstarch. whose re-
sulting deep red color was very
close to the crimson in Har-
wards then proud banners. Eu-
rekal An inSpiration-and the
name Of Harvard beets" was
coined.
New York. N. Y: II seems to
me that ! once heard that two
Of the most common mems
outer garments were named for
q pair Of British officers in the
Crimean War. Can you I'LL me
in on this?-W. j. Miller.
Answer: The Earl Of cardi-
gan gave his name to the knit
ted wooden. ont-buttoning
sweater. The Earl Of Raglan's
fame In mems wear circles
hangs upon his invention Of
the raglan overcoat. in which
the sleeves continue In one
piece to the collar. without the
shoulder seam found in other
outercoats.
It's ironic that their fame
should now rest on such home
ly articles. for in their lifetimes
they were among the most cell
ebrated--and bumbleheaded---
of military leaders. II was Car
digan who led the doomed
march Of the Light Brigade at
Balaclava in the Crimea, while
Raglan was in supreme COM
mand of the British forces dur
ing that war. Though praised
by Victoria for his services. he
was sharply criticized by mill
tary experts for his handling
Of the campaign. The story is
superbly told. by the way. in
Cecil Woodham-Smith's book
The Reason Why" one OF the
finest historical narratives OF
our time.

The bidding:
North East South West
10 2A 40 All pass
Opening lead: Queen Of clubs.
Don't believe q word Of II.
Overcalls can and do cause
confusion and indecision even
In the most select bridge circles.
The most deadly Of all over
calls Is the one which uses UP q
maximum Of bidding space. An
overcall Of one heart over q one
diamond opening uses up no
bidding at all. Third hand can
conveniently bid one spade or
two clubs or whatever he
planned TO bid. And. II he had
planned to respond with one
heart. he can merely double.
A two-club overcall over an
opening diamond bid Is . diff
ferent proposition. Here the
responder has been deprived Of
the opportunity Of bidding one
heart. one spade or one no.
trump.
In today's deal II Miss Brash
had stayed out Of the auction
Mrs. Keen would have had no
problem. Her hand was strong
enough to make two forward
going bids without definitely
committing the hand to . game
contract. Her first bid would
have been one heart.
II her partner then bid one
no-trump or two diamonds she
would have bid two no-trump
with q feeling that she had now
done full justice to her holding.
And on that sequence Of bid
ding Mr.. Abel. with well over q
minimum opening. would have
been happy to 60 TO three no
trump.
But after the overcall Mrs.
Keen was in q bad spot. A bid
Of two no-trump would commit
her side to game-a commit
ment she was not strong
enough to assume. A two
heart bid would do just about
the same thing. A penalty
double might be the best bet
but again it might not. Mrs.
Keen had to guess and she
finally settled on q two-dia-
mond call as the least Of the
evils.
Now Mr.. Abel also had prob
lens. His possible rebids were
three diamonds. two no-trump
or pass. With no sure stopper
IN either major suit he decided
to pass.
Here the story should end.
And. to make my point about
the effect Of overcalls on op-
ponents' bidding, I showed the
auction closing at . two-dia-
mond contract.
When the hand was actually
PLAYED Miss Brash could not let
well enough alone. She re-
opened the bidding with two
spades and this gave Mrs. Keen
Q chance to show her previously
undisclosed strength with bid
Of two no-trump. Mr.. Abel car
ried on to three. which was
made without difnculty.

Dear Dr. StelmcfOnn:
wonder how many Of your
readers know Of the existence
Of such . place In most mod
ern hospitals ~ the recovery
Room. I think they should
know for two reasons. The
first ID that many . patients
life has been saved by the
attention received there. And
second. Il will save many anx-
iOus relatives needless anx-
iety and heartaehe waiting
for hours In the patients
room wondering why the
operation IL taking 90 long.
For example. my husband
was operated on for his gall
bladder = few weeks ago. I
waited In his room for six
hours-all the while think
ing something had gone
wrong on the operating room
table. Then I was told that
he was all right-that he
was being observed In the
recovery room with all the
other patients who had been
operated on that morning.
And I also learned later that
he might have died II he
hadn't been In that room.
He suddenly stopped breath
ing about an hour after they
brought him 10 the recovery
room. Only the close OBJ
servati0n Of the nurse. and
having the proper instru-
ments and q doctor immedi-
ately on hand. saved his life.
Do you wonder why I am en-
Unused about the recovery
room and want people to
know about n? Mrs. 5. s. J.
