To maintain this protection,
additional booster shots are nee

Protection" he said, should
begin early in life-one to two
months after birth-for the
scrapes and falls of childhood
offer tetanus many opportunities.
but adults need protection
too. With the new emphasis on
outdoor living, with accidents
on the increase and with the
spore of tetanus in the dust and
dirt all about us, we can only
look forward to an increase in
this deadly disease unless we
make better use of our good
sense, get immunized and keep
immunized"

TetanuS Deaths Unnecessary,
Saws ANA Health Official

Despite the outpouring of
new wonder" drugs, mans an
cient enemy, tetanus, has not
yet succumbed to a cure.
/ Even so, death from tetanus,
or "lockjaw~ as it is commonly
called, is almost entirely un-
necessary" says Raymond L.
White, MD, Director of En-
vironmental Medicine for the
American Medical Association.
AS a disease, tetanus is COM
pletely preventable," DR.. White
noted. "The only reason it per-
sists is that people fail to get
immunized. or fail to maintain
their immunity. Out of sheer
neglect, three-fourths of the
people don't have the protection
they need.
IF it weren't for medicines
continual concern over the pos
sibility of tetanus-if practically
every time a physician saw a
wound he didn't take precau-
tons against tetanus-the dis
ease would rank much higher
AMONG human killers"
Tetanus is caused by a deadly
poison emitted by certain bac-
terra which contaminate certain
types of wounds-especially
puncture wounds, or wounds
with imbedded dirt.
The bacteria itself cannot
survive long enough in the open
air to infect wounds. But its
seeds or spores can.
Tetanus spores are usually
produced by bacteria growing
within the air-free intestinal
tracts of mammals, including
man, and reach the ground in
animal manure. Within the in
testines, bacteria cause no harm
to their host, other than to serve
as factories for the production
of spores.

Mine-MiN Backing
Proposed Industry
Safety Legislation

Legislation introduced by Sen. Lee
Metcaf and Congressman Arnold
Olsen, among others, to give the Sec
rotary of the Interior the authority
to promulgate and enforce health
and safety code for metallic and nom
metallic mines and quarries, has re-
ceived the strong support of the
major union in the non-ferrous met
ais field, the International Union of
Mine, Mill & Shelter Workers.
Mine-Mill, in announcing that it
was sending Secretary Treasurer Irv-
ing Dichter, Denver, to Washington
to begin an organizational campaign
to secure passage of the proposed
legislation, pointed out that 'sThe
miners and smeltermen of this coun-
try have been fighting for this kind
of legislation for the past 15 years.
The United States is one of the few
industrial countries in the world
without national safety standards in
this hazardous industry.
Accident rates in metal mining
are among the highest in American
industry. Present state safety codes
are antiquated, inadequate, and pro-
vide little or no protection for the
miners and smeltermen in our coun-
try. We anticipate that this bill will
gather the widest support from every
union in the metal mining and smelt-
ering industry
Other sponsors of the legislation
besides Metcalf and Olsen are: Sen.
Frank Moss, Utah; Reps. Joseph Mon
toya, New Mexico; Norris Udall, and
G. F. Senner, Arizona; HI. B. Con
zales, Texas, and E. R. Roybal, Cali

Home Economists Tell
Members How To
Prevent Tooth Decay

BERKELEY, alif.-(CNS)-The
large amounts of refined sugars and
starches in the foods which Ameri-
cans often eat at irregular hours con-
tribute heavily to the dental disease
from which $50 of them suffer,
home economists of Consumers Coz
operative here told members recently.
They made these suggestions to help
reduce tooth decay-especially in
children:
1. Control diet by eating foods
from all four basic food groups and
avoiding sticky candy and cookies
when the toothbrush is not handy.
2. Brush teeth Immediately after
meals at home and rinse the mouth
If toothbrush is not available after
snacks away from home.
3. Protect teeth by regular visits
to the dentist for cleaning teeth,
treating cavities and prescription of
a fluorine supplement if the public
water supply is not fluoridated.

AN INVESTMENT IN
AMERICA
Hungry Horse is an investment in
my State and nation; is fully repay
able, and it is anticipated that it will
be paid out in SO years or less.
Actually, structures of this type
will produce power for hundreds of
years even after they are paid for
and should be looked on as assets
rather than liabilities
"a block of approximately 200, 900
kilowatSs of Hungry Horse power has
been allocated to Montana-the first
such preference ever made, and one
which I hope will be the pattern for
all federal projects in Montana in
the future" the Senate Majority
Leader said.
Senator Metcalf told the Senate
that construction of Knowles would
benefit an entire region and the ma
ton.
"When Knowles is completed" he
said, together with storage at
Bruce's Eddy, and Canadian storage
developed as result of the Columbia
River Treaty, we will have storage
capacity on the Columbia of 26,40O,-
900 acre feet. This approaches the
flood control goal set for the Co.
lumbia and its tributaries by the
Corps of Engineers"
Metcalf said that federal con-
struction of multi-purpose Knowles
Dam was in line with his overall
philosophy of resource develop
ment. He explained:
Projects that are single purpose,
and for power production without |
storage can best be constructed by
he private power companies. The
multiple projects that have
public interest uses over and above
hose of power production can best

.rnment. To use the symbols of pri-

what Knowles would do for Montana

the record of Hungry Horse. He
continued:
'The rates of REAs in western
Montana have been reduced because
of Hungry Horse power from be-

From CALGARY HERALD

TORONTO - An Alberta
doctor says that physical alb
normalities of children born in
that province in 1861 increased
almost two-fold over 1859, with
evidence pointing to radio
active rainfall as the cause.
In an article in the current issue
of the Canadian Medical Association
Journal, DR.. L. ]. lie Vann suggested
an even greater increase may occur
among children born in 1862.
DR.. lie Vann's prediction was based
on records of increased precipita-
tion, which he said carries radioactive
dust to the ground.
Studies have shown significant
relationship between the extent of
rainfall and the incidence of mall
formation, he explained.

DR.. lie Vann is superintendent of
the provincial training school in Red
Deer, and a lecturer in psychiatry at
the University of Alberta.
In 1859 he made studies of 33,784
of the 1896 children born in the
province that year. He found 7.76
abnrmalities per 1000 births.
A similar study of births in 1861

Two-MiII General Fund Levy
To Continue for Another Year
Hell EN-

dollars to the general fund this COM
ing year.
Early in July, it will be recalled,
Gov. Babcock announced that the
general fund had a balance of $4,-
253,718 as of June 80, in contrast
with the $4.5 million deficit accumu-
lated under the administration of
his fellow Republican Governor and
predecessor, j. Hugo Aronson.
Babcock's rosy contention was
Immediately disputed, as was re-
ported in the VOICE of July S,
when it was noted that there had
been considerable adroit manipu-
lating of state funds just before
the close of the last fiscal year in
order for the supposedly ain the
black" figure to be developed.
In that VOICE, it was pointed out
that not only had $40 million van
ished from the states u. S. Treasury
Bond investment over the preceding
10 years, but that the State Board,
in an unprecedented action had
pulled fspeed-up'' in reporting tax
collections in order to make the con-
dition of the general fund ''look
good. Reported the PV: "The Board
of Equalization in an unprecedented
bookkeeping movement flooded the
Treasury with income tax and cor
poration license tax money which is
usually deposited in July, not in
June :"
Opinions circulating in the state
house are that politically there is
much more mileage to be made by
leaving the levy on until August,
1864. If actually possible to remove
at that time, the Republican incum-
bent Governor will then have at his
disposal a handy "tax reduction"
claim to ballyhoo in next years
general election campaign.
